I see the new ATI card is out today. It's a power hog. The 2900XT is on par with the 8800GTS. Only thing that I see that would be nice to try out is the 2900XT has a tessellator unit on it along with the GS. So I would like to play with that feature. Hopefully Nvidia will add this soon also. I wouldn't expect to see if until G90... :( What would be nice is to use the TsU(A.K.A. Tessellator Unit) and displacement mapping to make some very nice detailed meshes. Terrain, Human features, other things I am sure. Can anyone else think of things to use this for?


Onto coding issues I am having. I am having an issue with Guichan when I click a textfield and click the mouse button to set the users input up. The textfield stays focused and doesn't allow me to click the same textfield again to change the input if I want. I have to click another textfield to make that one gain focus. The keyboard input works great and correctly. Missing something but can't nail it down.

I hope to have some screenshots in the next few months of this in action, with my schedule being HELL, who knows. I do plan on having this done by years end. Hopefully. See how many games I have to play between now and then.

Seen Spiderman3 last week. Not sure what to think of it. I liked it, but not sure I liked it as much as 1&2... The new house is great now I am just waiting on my sidewalk and black dirt so I can plant grass and trees.

Anyone here have a quad core? I am curious to know what they think of it, and how hot it runs...
