Split from X4 VR etc thread

[Reprisal]

<snip>

Nothing you quoted has any bearing whatsoever on framerate except for significantly reducing the number of ships and stations. Which isn't an issue for people with high end PCs as the original universe layout has been modded back into X Rebirth VR.

Now obviously Egosoft doesn't want to do VR in X4 because it's a lot of work to change the UI and make optimisations. OK the UI needs to be modified, fair enough. But the claim that optimisations have to be made doesn't seem to hold water.

And considering you've done nothing but quote others, I don't think you're the person to discuss this with. If I can run X Rebirth VR at 2.0SS and never dip below 90FPS, then the optimisations were far too extensive.

Are you referring to the X-R Vanilla Recall Collection? That doesn't claim to have increased the numbers of NPC Traders back to classic XR levels (or Miners, if they were reduced), and it includes several optimisations that would probably increase performance in classic XR (removal of nebulae, debris and stardust effect, and reduction in mass traffic).

And considering you've done nothing but quote others, I don't think you're the person to discuss this with.

Perhaps if you could present facts like X2-Illuminatus, instead of slinging insults and making unsubstantiated claims about what other people experience, the discussion would progress better.

What insults have I slung at anyone? I'd say X2 using the eye-rolling image as the closest thing to an insult I've seen.

As for unsubstantiated claims, what unsubstantiated claims? That the optimisations are over the top? It's not like that opinion is unique.

If you're planning on railroading me here, just say so and I'll stop posting.
