Came across cool new mod:

First time I've seen wall hanging/edge shimmying in UT2004 mod, thats good to know that this engine is capable of that. Also has a cool Prince of Persia type feature to it.

UT2004 tech is a DirectX 7 engine with only a few DX8 calls for the rendering of the water reflections. These are not PS though.

a 3.2 ghz,Radeon 9800 pro chugged on this,i cant say that is not unusual

it had TONS of the white thingy with bubbles(show's when there's no texture or cant render),so i guessed its PS

yea i know i meant for this to be in Open Session but somehow it snuck in here. sry.

I run it pretty smooth on 2.8Ghz Hyperthread with 9600 Pro (Omega drivers - but not overclocked)

as i said it has a bug with some systems afaik,and this version is very badly optimized(the mapper's said themselves iirc)
