Fable is causing me to accelerate my requests!

Mikes in; fully lit by environment and driven with IK.

Scatter props like rocks, tree branches etc

Trees with shadows. Full grass. All affected by wind/rain/snow

Mikes eyes light at night so he can see where he is going.

Some simpler creatures going in e.g. butterflies and fish.

For the most part 60 FPS! - took sometime to get to that.

now every blade of grass casts a shadow!. Mike (the robot) was happy in his tranquil world. But some mofo has now given him a gun.....

Mike didn’t like his gun so now he’s upgraded to a plasma laser . Be kind . Don’t be like Mike and mow down the flora with your new found toy . In a world full of Mikes , don’t be a Mike .

You are SO right . Effectively on some things we’ve exceeded UE . But I cheated a bit . Mines a heightmap engine so I can’t do overhang / caves etc - fine for landscapes etc but not insides ( though I’m thinking about how you would do that with a ray marcher for a follow up project ) . But yes ! Everything UE does we attempt . Rain , snow , wind , lighting , explosions , lasers , ice , real big list . Put a video up on YouTube in the next few weeks . Expect Apple to offer me a billion dollars for it …. maybe …. or Mr.Beast ( I.e more money than sense ) . But I’ll take the cash from anyone ; not fussy !
