A couple of paint-overs showing examples of how we want the light to end up looking in the game.

The images are screenshots from the game that have been painted over in Photoshop in order to depict the final look of the light and effects. Images like this are used by engine guys to code the right kinds of shaders to achieve the look…

Over and out! Happy Holidays from all of us to all of you!!

Years back we lost the chaseace.com domain because we neglected to pay a bill. The domain was squatted by a porn site, we won it back, but still to this date the domain remains blocked in some corporate porn filters and firewalls.
