So it turns out porting the procedural generation test to 0.7.1 was way easier than I thought it would be.
Everything is the same as before, let me know if anything seems weird.

Re: SCP-860 implementation list + discussion
#42I try putting forest.zip into (by forest.zip you mean 860_scpcb_zip)? but yeah, i was map and it didn't work could someone who somehow did it correctly post the download on MediaFire sio I can see what the 860 forest is like.
Hello, I am [[REDACTED]], [[REDACTED]]. I have been a fan of SCP for [[REDACTED]] [[REDACTED]]. I am also on the SCP:CB Wiki, and thats it so... [[REDACTED]] off much?

#43Set up foliage and the like(used the class-d model as a temp), here's the test with fog.

ZIP for those of you that are having issues: http://www.mediafire.com/?wybl7ob1upoa8ao
After you teleport to the forest, check your console after it initializes. Let me know how many milliseconds it takes.

The text on options for the forest go in Data/rooms
I tried the application myself, but Memory Access keeps popping up for me.

#45New method of generating the map I thought you guys would prefer. The tile mapping is generated at the start of the game and whenever you leave the forest. Tile and foliage meshes are created and positioned one tile per frame. This happens as you play through the game regardless of where you are. As of now the only ways I believe the forest has an effect on the speed of the game is when you exit the forest (Some older crappy cards take a while to delete meshes 'en masse'. Mine takes 13ms for 25*123 tiles + 4 'trees' per tile, to put it in perspective) and possibly extend frame time slightly while the map is generating meshes(If this does pose to be a problem for some of you it is easy to reduce the generation to every 2nd 3rd 4th... etc. frame).

Use the zip I posted earlier and replace the executable with this.

EDIT:
Nice work the class d placeholders made it look like a Slenderman forest though, haha.
They're doing a 3 tree per tile method? My previous calculations based on the SCP-860 article image was around 50 trees in view at almost any given time, each tree being around 200 polys total (10,000 polys in view possibly max; adding in the monster [4-5,000 polys] + foliage could be around 16-20,000 polys total at most.)
The test was lagging horridly though thanks to my awful Windows PC, so it was a bit hard to test. I think the The fog density should be reduced a bit, everything felt quite unclear and I found it difficult personally to navigate the forest following the red path tiles. No need to worry about this PC and increasing the frame time to generate, cause this thing can barely run even minecraft at the lowest graphical settings.
Re: SCP-860 implementation list + discussion
#47Sorry, made a typo there. I have 4 'trees' per tile, as to test the generation bottleneck. Just to be clear, does the entire game lag? Or does your FPS drop only in the forest? Turn on the debughud in the forest, and make note of any changes in FPS when EventState2 reaches 124.Mirocaine wrote:

Email me at [email protected] if you need art done.
Re: SCP-860 implementation list + discussion
#49No, the entire game lags when I turn to face even a simple 1,000 poly model, looking down at the floor gives me 30+ fps. This windows laptop was definitely not built with gaming in mind.
