Sigh, what's the point of ranting and insulting? Shouting louder than everyone else to attempt to make your point "more valid" is kinda annoying. We all know that people would like to claim the longest feature list possible, especially if selling a license for a game engine. Game developers don't make decisions about licensing lightly, and an extra check never hurts your prospects for a sale if you can reasonably make the claim. I have a hard time believing that Valve would fraudulently place extra features in their marketing material. Any licensee can easily verify the claim since they'll (at least, I assume) have the source code. While marketing people do make exaggerations, I have a hard time believing that Valve is employing marketing people so brazen as to fabricate engine feature check marks. My take is that perhaps that particular check mark is an exaggeration, perhaps they're faking radiosity instead of implementing it accurately, but if it's not in the engine at all as you seem to claim, why would they risk their reputation by sticking it on the list? -- Bob Aman http://www.rapidcanvas.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
