You might want to implement flocking behaviour around the leader to strip most pathfinding away from the sheeples.

it is implemented. but I found a bug in my script. the getpath calls are limited by proc_status , but it does not work as expected. now I use a global counter that shows the exact result. if limited to 25/frame, tha 25-30ms drops to 15ms. but it requires a priority value based queue to handle well whuch unit can start a getpath and which cannot.

Joozey, the two planets on the left could do with more distortion of the texture. Have you checked out the gimp Planet tutorial?

I found it to be pretty awesome, the results are great and it's quick and easy.

I used it to make all planets in the background of our site: (They change once every month.)

#EDIT 2:

Looks awesome. only the air conditioner looks a little smaller in proportions compared to windows and such.

further testing:
without pssm, 600 moving units results in 30-35 fps, depending on camera position (it would be 13-15 fps with pssm):

so I modified the pssm shadow function not to process far shadows, and together with reset/set SHADOW flag of units based on their camera distance resulted in a minor improvement (3-6 fps):

as I realized, the displayed milliseconds do not show exact values when pssm shadows are used. if I calculate the fps from them, it should be much higher. but there are significant differences in polygons per sec, and in the quantitiy of visible entities and triangles. I don't really understand why time_client+time_server values are increased when pssm applied... I should learn a bit of optimization. but meanwhile I started to deal with code clearing/optimization of the unit and group update loops.

Feedback?

The palisades' color should match the color of the window shelves of the ground floor. Since you decided to have that one wall demolished, you should put some of that demolition on the ground.

Can you give us some background information? Maybe show us uv-cooridinates, how much different textures you use? Normal Maps, too? What Polycount?

I really like ;-)

5* 512² Textures / 3* 1024² textures (have to merge it to two texture files) / no Normalmaps yet, will be made at least
