Texas - Wasteland MOD eingestellt




"Wie die meisten schon wussten, lief der Sandbox 2 Editor eine Zeitlang nicht mehr bei mir. In dieser Zeit war unsere Mod „Texas-Wasteland“ in Hochproduktion und in dieser Zeit ist sowohl mir, als auch Pat21 die Lust an der MOD vergangen. Ich spreche für uns und verkünde somit den offiziellen Abbruch der MOD. Wir stehen weiterhin für Fragen im Thread bereit und hoffen, dass ihr nicht all zu viel sauer und enttäuscht seid, schließlich habt ihr uns im MOD-Thread schön Feedback und Vorschläge gegeben die uns immer wieder zu großen Sprüngen verholfen hat. Weder die Alpha noch die aktuelle Versionen wird veröffentlicht.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen BaggiBox & Pat21."

CryENGINE® 3.5 angekündigt

Introduction
We've got some really special news today. CryENGINE3.5 has been announced. We realise that we may have missed some key features with CryENGINE3 that the community would really like to see, so the team at Crytek Coburg has taken some of your suggestions and put them straight into the engine.



Coburg (Germany), April 1st 2009 - "The team at Crytek Coburg is proud to announce the latest development in CryENGINE Technology."

CryENGINE3.5
The brand new engine has been worked on tirelessly by the team in Coburg and they've achieved an absolutely massive leap in CryENGINE technology. We've incldued the list of improvements made to the engine below. With this engine, we've taken community suggestions on board. After having seen your amazing response to CE3, with CE3.5 we went one better and have incorporated some of your suggestions from our very own CE3 suggestions thread here, the following are quoted directly.

Features List
  • More real than real life!
  • Super Optimizedness
  • More oppertunities
  • Harder game
  • fully dynamic real-time interactive procedural skyscraper
  • Realistic physics. (example, falling, tree falling, crashing)
  • More animals (dogs, cats...)
  • Jet fighters and planes
Conclusion
Once again and as always, without your ideas and your support this iteration of the CryENGINE would not have been made possible, so we'd like to thank all those of you that contributed your feedback to us and allowed us to make some of the changes above to CryENGINE3.5
