"Apart from tessellation and displacement, which are DX11-specific, we also managed to bring feature parity with DX10 implementation, which is significant as DX10/DX11 hardware makes up over 95 per cent of our target systems," Shishkovstov continues. There's also good news for those running older DX10 and even DX9 graphics cards. This is 4A's first PS3 title and without going into too much depth, it's safe to say that the new SKU doesn't disappoint.Īside from headline features, the Metro engine itself has considerably evolved, with over 3,000 logged changes that we presume fold back into the console versions. "Without spoiling our upcoming Face-Off too much, let's just say that the PS3 version of Metro: Last Light is definitely no slouch compared to its Xbox 360 stablemate." A preview of our upcoming Metro: Last Light Face-Off, comparing the Xbox 360 edition of the game with the PlayStation 3 release. Users should expect around a less than three pre cent performance drop with first mode and around 15 per cent drop with the second one, assuming reasonably modern GPU architecture." "The second mode tessellates almost everything. The first one tessellates and displaces only specific artist-selected content (although this 'selection' is much broader than in it was in 2033)," explains Shishkovstov. One of the most pleasant things that surprised us while playtesting Metro: Last Light on our GTX 680 PC (2560x1440, very high settings, max tessellation, well over 30FPS average)was that not only was the tessellation a clear visual advantage, but it didn't unduly impact performance to a game-breaking extent. Previous implementations we've seen sap performance to a massive extent, requiring an enormous amount of GPU time for an effect that - while welcome - isn't really worth the impact to frame-rate. Tessellation also gets a substantial upgrade in Last Light. The sub-pixel shading aliasing is also greatly reduced as a side-bonus."Īs Shishkovstov puts it, traditional multi-sampling is dead and in a typically controversial manner reckons that "antialiasing is the domain specific job of programmers and not a magical hardware feature!" In summary - 2x supersampling (x1.41421 in each dimension) +FXAA-style post-processing (running in super-sampled resolution) provides enough information to surpass 4xMSAA on every front - even in performance in deferred shading pipelines. You'd be surprised how little additional information is needed to match and surpass the quality of 4xMSAA. The way we solve it is to allow the user to apply some amount of super-sampling. The usual problem with analytical approaches still applies - there is no sub-pixel information to correctly estimate pixel/fragment coverage. "The side effect is that the picture is always anti-aliased to some extent. Please enable JavaScript to use our comparison tools. There is no way for the user to disable analytical anti-aliasing any more, due to the way it is deeply integrated into the pipeline," says Shishkovstov. "We merged ideas from our previous implementation (AAA) and FXAA to both have larger search window and deeper per-pixel control, like micro-blur and/or micro-sharpen. The frame-rate killing 4x MSAA from Metro 2033 is now a thing of the past. 4A's approach is to combine super-sampling with a post-process technique - FXAA - for optimal results in terms of both performance and image quality. The problem with SSAA is that it's very heavy on the GPU since so many more pixels are being internally rendered. Super-sampling is the new anti-aliasing technique of choice from 4A - and it's literally the process of rendering the frame at a higher pixel density and then downscaling it to fit your chosen resolution, smoothing away the jaggies. "For example, Metro: Last Light is very playable on Intel HD 4000 hardware in DX11 mode (yes, lower quality settings only, but still - it runs) and we run extremely well on the next-gen Intel Haswell GPUs, while still bringing to their knees the high-end cards like GTX 680 and the HD 7970 in high-quality modes with extreme super-sampling." ![]() "We are extremely proud of the scalability we achieved," Oles Shishkovstov, chief technical officer for 4A Games tells us. Metro: Last Light developer 4A games has shared some of the technological enhancements added to its bespoke engine since the release of Metro 2033 three years ago, going in-depth on its new approaches to DirectX 11, tessellation and anti-aliasing while promising a great gameplay experience across a range of hardware. ![]() ![]() ![]() He could kill us all but he chooses not to, because it's funny.

Spons is a kite-shaped character with a red base colouring, small blue shoes, hands sticking out of his sides and a face resembling Caddy's in the middle of his body. This is a photo of caddy in a green screen suit. He is considered the main antagonist of the videos due to him usually causing some kind of bodily harm to those around him and being invasive, mainly by torturing Caddy in ways such as bursting out of his chest and giving him extreme paranoia and discomfort. He is primarily used for the advertisement reads/sponsorship segments for his videos, hence the name spons.

Lazarus's long career, but most are accounts of people the Lazaruses have known over the years - people whose emotional fears, conflicts, and desires mirror the reader's own. Some are composite case histories drawn from Dr. Basic to these accounts are a set of fascinating vignettes, stories of actual emotions as they were experienced by real people, which frame a "biography" of each emotion. Exploring fifteen emotions in depth, from love to jealousy, the authors show how the personal meaning we give to the events and conditions of our lives trigger such emotions as anger, anxiety, guilt, and pride. While not intended as a how-to book, its treatment of the emotions, the situations that arouse them, and how people deal with them still provides useful ideas about how to manage our emotions more effectively. Passion and Reason describes how readers can interpret what lies behind their own emotions and those of their families, friends, and co-workers. ![]() This linkage makes it possible to understand each emotion with precision. They make a strong case that, contrary to common assumption, emotions are not irrational - our emotions, motives, and thoughts are inextricably linked. The Lazaruses explore the short- and long-term causes and effects of many emotions, evaluating research on stress and health, and the links between negative emotions and heart disease, cancer, and other physical and mental diseases. Lazarus and his co-author and wife, Bernice Lazarus, move beyond overly technical treatments of the subject, clinical jargon, and "feel-good" popular psychology to really explain, in plain, accessible language, how emotions are aroused, how they are managed, and how they critically shape our views of ourselves and the world around us. What was still needed, however, was a book for general readers and health care practitioners that would dispel the myths still surrounding cultural beliefs about emotion and systematically explain the relevance of the newest research to the emotional dramas of our everyday lives. When Oxford published Emotion and Adaptation, the landmark 1991 book on the psychology of emotion by internationally acclaimed stress and coping expert Richard Lazarus, Contemporary Psychology welcomed it as "a brightly shining star in the galaxy of such volumes." Psychologists, psychiatrists, and researchers hailed it as a masterpiece, a major breakthrough in our understanding of the emotional process and its central role in the adaptation of individuals and our species.

Frankly, the results speak for themselves. Ultra Fractal is very easy to use and yet more capable than any other fractal program. With the Torrent, it is clear to see that Fractal's Airflow-focused design has had an impact on our system's thermals, giving us the lowest CPU and GPU thermals that we have ever seen using this hardware configuration. We use a hit-running CPU with a compact cooler and a graphics card with fixed fan speeds to ensure that only internal case airflow can impact thermals.
