psst, most of the pics are broken into 4 parts, and once you have all 4 parts posted to the forums, photshopped together, then I will post the untouched image. Good job so far, it looks like you have three of the four parts from one of them.
Now can you FIND the last part?

Meh. I don't need super secret hidden shots to know the rendering has GREATLY IMPROVED. The 'last location' log-in screen blew me away.... and that was while I was busy not getting into the game. Cienna's skin looked REAL. Looks real. Details are sharper, textures are more realistic, everything looks better.
Nice job, LL. Really.  _____________________

Things are rendered in a different priority, I did notice that.

2.0 not 1.6!!
04-01-2005 10:22
Ever since 1.6 was in preview I keep hearing "oh the avi's look so much better".
I thought nothing had changed in that area! It's a psychological effect? What HAS changed is better detection of graphic cards to maybe the improvement people are seeing just means they did not have the best settings. Non-the-less there are there any visual improvements in 1.6 that I'm just not seeing? So.. for those of you confused.. we this is an image hunt for Second Life 2.0 (two point owe) screen shots! |

Speaking of clues, did anybody else notice that Magellan and Marcos Fonzarelli look like they were separated at birth? Go flip the front pages of this website. Marcos...Magellan...Marcos....Magellan.... People think I make this stuff up. Go look. Eh, we look vaguely similar. Magellan  Marcos  Perhaps Magellan is a long-lost cousin. Maybe I will run into him inworld one of these days. |

That's HAVOK 2.0, not SL 2.0. And that insane draw-distance...well, it won't be insane when released. That's a normal draw distance -- just like the new splashscreen (also Havok 2.0)
*EDIT: I know I'm wrong now. Move along, nothing to see here.* _____________________

Yeah, Havok's just physics, this is the 2.0 graphic engine under development.

I post photos there sometimes... ben Aw, man, is this a, you know...*cough*hint*cough*? *Looks at office clock, 4 hours to go* *Bangs head on desk* -- jj PS Ben, I think the fact that I at least detected the possibility of a hint here entitles me to both Ben-bearage and Ben-cardage. Especially if it turns out this was a false trail, and I become a grid.pariah for having wasted everybody else's time by suggesting a wild goose chase. Despised and outcast, I can cuddle in the corner of my little shack in Blue, fondling my Ben Linden collectibles and thinking of what might've ben...uh, been. |

Yeah, the sky is pretty littered. Yah... now the big new spaces and the tons of new land being rolled out make more sense... Wonder if maybe they'll lower the tier rates to take advantage of it all? ...and, um... is it just me or does it look like a bunch of prims are really stretched... maybe broken? _____________________
