Synced up the casting and updated the Vods to 60fps. Part of supply shout cast is missing.

Nice. Idle.ee GOAT!
Oh shit, I was there!
Legendary stuff
Very cool you set the replay to use r_picmip 0 and low r_subdivisions 4 and cg_drawgun 1.
:o what are r_subdivisions
When you have a curved surface, it’s how many straight chunks the renderer divides it into. The more chunks, the faster it renders. The less number of chunks the better it looks on screen.
r_subdivisions 1 means that the curved surfaces are rendered as true curves with the only distortion being the translation to pixel widths when your GPU rasterizes the image according to your resolution.
It is essentially linear approximation of a quadratic or polynomial equation.
Higher r_subdivisions were needed when the game debuted (2003) to keep frame rates acceptable. There are a handful of custom maps that can still choke the stock game engine 20 years later with r_subdivisions 1/2.
This is not the case with ETe, as it uses VBO’s to offload much more processing to the GPU. It is still the case with ET:L as it uses compiled vertex arrays which are calculated on the CPU (until they get their act together to fix “Rend2”).
This man subdivides!
Ceres this is awesome-
Is there still a competitive scene?
Yes, we actually had a LAN event with 10 teams back in May this year
Is there much prospect of ET:L picking up some of the enhancements from ETe?
FIIK…I’ve asked the question on their discord very politely before and I get the response of “when it’s done.” It’s not in the bug tracker and I’ve not seen anything in their forums.
The code is on their github repo, but they never release it and they stripped it out of the cmake build files like 2-3 years ago…
There are still pick up gathers, not Leagues and stuff like back in the day.
Discord for the NA gathers: https://discord.gg/77Jsx6ZanV
Discord for the EU gathers: https://discord.gg/khDWpPBQ
Those are the ones I know for sure, might be more if moes is still doing them too or if there are more EU discords.
I can’t believe there’s competitive ET in 2025
Thanks for uploading, enjoyed it a lot - also for your other uploads
