Stress testing grass, getting a lovely 5 FPS at this detail. Looking into optimizations.
Thinking about making grass more dense around the player, and less dense with distance.

That looks amazing. And for some reason reminds me of minecraft with one of those “realism” mods

Possibly expand the mesh and lower the resolutions of the textures at a distance.
that nothing special, just few minutes of intense duplocation clics x)
But I may use this method to make my showcase’s terrain.

I’ll take 5 fps If I can get that. please see what sort of performance you could get by thinning out the grass and lowering the texture resolution at a distance.
I think it’ll look a lot better when we put it in your lighting for the main game, we may even do separate lighting for each map.
I spent half a day allowing the code to create a local humanoid and character and camera and everything control-related to work without spawning a character (aka Player.Character = nil even though you’ve got a character to play with). After that I worked on replicating said characters to other people’s screens.
Here’s the result (and the reason for all of this): Smooth inter/extrapolated character models. Blue represents the last known position update, red represents the current position update. The character models then extrapolate at a rate of 12.5%
I forgot to record another gif of the final product (debug blocks removed + 12.5% extrapolation) but here’s one with 0% extrapolation and the debugs in place:

Tomorrow I do my final optimization idea and test 96 player servers!

As someone who lives on a horse farm, i can confirm that that statement is accurate
Love the atmosphere!

Also these 3 weapons (obtainable undetermined for now):

If anyone has any additional weapon or box ideas, I am taking suggestions.

random thought: make the plastic box vulnerable to flame weapons, it won’t stay burning, but it’ll take more damage than say… metal.

If you plan to import it into Roblox, you will need to remove 200 triangles. That is a very good model.

True heartline banking/roll support! Doubt many players care about it or have any clue what it is in the first place, but whatever .
