#STARPOINT GEMINI WARLORDS BEST FRIGATE UPGRADE#

Tiled Forward Rendering (Forward+) upgrade to the Graphics PipelineД®ven though Starpoint Gemini Warlords featured local dynamic lights, they were never actually used because of their crippling limitations (up to 4 lights could be cast on any individual object in the game), so instead we focused our efforts on making the Gemini Suns cast impressive volumetric shadows. All in an effort to make nebulas, industrial areas and open space feel unique.

Artists can now craft cloud density, depth, color, add a variety of different shapes and animations. With Starpoint Gemini 3 we decided to add more variety and depth to those clouds. Particles add depth and variety to the game environment While traveling through space, the player would come across some flag-shaped clouds that would periodically appear and behave in a wave-like manner. The clouds, however, never underwent any changes.

The art team added more variety to the system and appropriately colored particles were used in various environments. Previously, the environmental particle system has undergone smaller changes from Starpoint Gemini 2 to Starpoint Gemini Warlords. This however, was never fully apparent (mostly due to our ambients being very dark), so in addition to improving those effects weвЂ™re considering a more robust hull damage model as well as hull bending during the shipвЂ™s explosion to really sell the destruction effect.Д®nvironmental Cloud and Particle system Improvements It gave the impression of actually fragmenting the enemyвЂ™s hull during combat. WeвЂ™ve already had small debris flying into space when hitting or destroying spaceships. High-fidelity explosion animations made for Starpoint Gemini 3 WeвЂ™ve added support for high-fidelity explosion animations, with frame-blending support, local light casting (looks far better than simply stacking screen-space glow) and support the creation of these effects via the gameвЂ™s new Editor. вЂњPotato explosionsвЂќ in Starpoint Gemini Warlords The game suffered from a limited visual variety and the details were hardly visible. Unfortunately, getting hit by numerous missiles meant that the player would quickly be coated in a potato-shaped glow. This development diary is also an entry to the first Starpoint Gemini 3 gameplay video, which is coming very, very soon!Д«efore, explosions used to be growing, glowing blobs that were meant to dazzle. The studioвЂ™s proprietary engine, WhaleX Engine has seen a lot of improvements since Starpoint Gemini Warlords especially in the rendering aspect. In the new Starpoint Gemini 3 development diary, LGM is shifting focus to improvements on the technical side of the game. LGM Games, creators of the Starpoint Gemini franchise published the second development diary for upcoming Starpoint Gemini 3.
