<p>internal link</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[StarCitizen:CitizenCon 2019]] Session<br /> <br /> Panel began by showing the evolution of planetary tech all the way to the upcoming Planetary Tech v4.0. It discusses what they&#039;ve added, what got iterated, and deep dive into technicals on how they built the tech. Planetary tech v3.0 had a lot of limitations that v4.0 is alleviating. For more details, please watch the panel as it&#039;s very packed with info and pretty pictures. <br /> <br /> <br /> {{#ev:YouTube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfCc_aDNsAw}}<br /> <br /> <br /> Album with some pictures [https://imgur.com/a/aBFA22o here]<br /> <br /> What are some things coming with planetary tech v4.0?<br /> <br /> - Terrain simulation, displacement of sand and soil based off of wind and such<br /> <br /> - Parameters such as Temperature and humidity<br /> <br /> - Replace pre-baked color textures with two layers of climate data<br /> <br /> - Overcomes issues when transitioning from ground to space<br /> <br /> - LOD Transitioning is significantly more fluid with less pop-ins and no global textures. You can see the actual ground texture from outer space. <br /> <br /> - Allows more planetary diversity<br /> <br /> - More future proof, a fundamental change on how quickly they can add planets<br /> <br /> - Improved object scattering, object generation, physics, and terrain generation on demand<br /> <br /> - Some of the procedural objects are turned into mineable entities<br /> <br /> - Less texture memory usage than v3.0<br /> <br /> - Clouds, however not in alpha 3.8.0<br /> <br /> Initial summaries by &quot;Mr. Slim Goodbody&quot; on the /r/starcitizen [[StarCitizen:discord]], used here with permission.<br /> <br /> [[Category:CitizenCon 2019 sessions]]</div>
