Mac OS X Demo Now Available: Version 1.0.679 (Beta 2)

[TimBioSS]

Ok, sot let's share my experiments, in order to understand the remaining bugs.
This time, I've been using a iMac G5 2Ghz with an Ati Radeon 9600 overclocked (to gain
FPS, and don't worry, it doesn't causes any display problems).

1 - IMPROVEMENTS
This beta is really better : Shadows work perfectly (and it give a whole new
aspect to the game), just as the lighting in general. It also seems more stable. And I noticed some decoration is now displaying correctly (like the net in the bedroom).



2 - REMAINING BUGS
• Some decoration elements are still clipping, only in the bedroom. As I said before, these elements become visible (but are displayed weirdly) when there is an indication on the screen, as icon or text.




• I've noticed some imperfections with lighting


• Motion Blur causes weird stripes. In addition, it's a real power eater…


• Strange physics ? We can carry the cushion from very far. The swing of the lamp in the bedroom is unrealistic (it swings, then it stops, then it swings…). I also seen a flare falling through the ground when I launched it. Otherwise, no problem.


Good luck for resolving these bugs…
