The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread

^^ looking good.

The default proland tress are interesting at a distance but they aren't great up close (being 2D), and are way to similar and it is easy to spot the repeating. That is something I ideally want to fix. The latest game engines do have good trees and vegetation but it is still way too spares and way to repetitive.

yep, DX12/Vulkan will resolve that issue and will allow us to get away from so much instancing.

Any experience with Unreal 4 engine humbug? i'm thinking of switching.

I have limited experience with UE, its a good engine, and less complicated than Cryengine.

I can only speak from personal experience and provide an opinion, i think UE is very good but not as good as Cryengine.

UE is simpler and there in easier to get along with, but, the reason for that is because Cryengine is far more extensive, it offers far more parameter adjustments so it can get really complex but having that you do tend to miss such deep level of programming when its not there.

Cryenigine also has its (Designer tool) its not a 3D creation tool as advanced as 3DSMax or Blender but its extremely useful for building objects right there in the Sandbox.

With UE you have to bake lighting maps and other such things before you can see what it looks like, thats messy as for fine tuning you have to bake - adjust - bake - adjust and bake again..... with Cryengine you drop it in and it will stream the mapping and the effect right in the sandbox live, what you get is what your looking at, immediately.
Another benefit to that is the fact that Cryengine builds everything on the fly as you work, so there is no need to compile anything, so for BETA's ecte... you can use what you built right off the bat, when it comes to final publishing compiling and encrypting is done stand alone so you don't need massive amount of RAM.

And last, to me the results in UE looks a bit plastic, to me the graphics are not a natural look, Cryengine is much more cinematic while UE is more animation.

But, i think its a great engine, i just prefer Cryengine, its my engine of choice.

But what will be faster for VR 980ti or Fury X ??? That is only benchmark that I am interested in.

at this point no one really knows, the headset market is so fragmented, there are at least 3 major competing ecosystems within the headsets themselves (Oculus, Steam and OSVR) and then both nvidia and AMD have their own VR toolboxes to contend with... it is pretty much going to be on a game by game basis as to which cards and which headsets are going to a) work at all and b) work best

I have not used that before so? Hoped it could be done in Catalyst control centre.

The fan can be set manually in the CCC, but can't be done on a curve (like in Afterburner), i.e when a certain temp is reached, make the fan run at X speed, you can only set it to single set speeds, so it will run that speed all the time, if the fans quiet enough at a higher speed, then you could always just set it to a single speed in the CCC and leave it i suppose.

Been told to not expect my HIS Fury X before mid/late august which is pretty ******* crap considering I pre-ordered on the 24th JUNE!

Is that on order here?

My guess is Asus and Sapphire with the pump revisions will ship first, like with the Fury, well more hope as I've got Sapphire's on order.

Maybe even XFX, unless Loadsa got a whiner.

I just want my new toy :(
