Over the past several months since our demo release, FriendlyFire has been working on fine tuning our DX9 integration as well as adding a few extra components to make this mod look even better. The below video highlights these news additions: lens flare, improved dynamic lighting, reflection maps, distortion maps and our work in progress shadow mapping.

Those changes give the game a whole new feel. Can't wait to play it. Well done to the dev team.

just a question: do you still use DX's forward renderer or it is some sort of custom deffered one? As huge battles will have it's impact on rendering speed I guess.

The distortion is unreal, so much epic in one FL video, oh my gods...

Makes you want to giggle like a little girl doesn't it. I'm pissed off with all these teasers now though, I want to play star wars damnit!

How is this for Freelancer...

Untill you relase it for all of us... it's.. just for SW

shove it, im sick of waitng for this, being teased for years now... enough. i dont vare about that mod.. i dont mod that mod, i mod freelancer.. and this, untill you give it up.. is just for you

F'ckn quit it, i was exited at first... many moons ago, now most of us feel teased, depresed and overly jaded by this "thing" you have that you wont share.

my short reply, dont care anymore.. shove it

Really? It has been said _THE ENTIRE TIME_ When its released, it will be availible to EVERYONE. Screw you if you dont have the patience to wait for something that youll get FOR NOTHING. Balls to you sir.

What you're saying is that we should have said we'd keep it for ourselves, or what? Nobody is entitled to anything we're doing.

Funny that when Freelancer took years more than anticipated, people just salivated and waited patiently. I don't recall people throwing their toys out of the pram because obviously they were purposefully delaying all of this.

I mean fuck, these things take inordinate amounts of time. This is one of those cases where I'd say shut up if you don't know what you're talking about. You should be happy to know you'll get it at all, happy the entire thing merely exists.

It's infuriating just how entitled people can be. Shadow mapping took me a MONTH to get right, and that's just one small piece. And now you mean to tell me you not only want it, but you also want it NOW? Screw you. You're not paying me, you're not even helping me.

This will be done when it's done. We're close, but we're not there yet. I can't believe I'm having to write all of this.
