    Civ5 performance analysis

    Thanks for the linkage :) I really hope it will be of some help to people, I really want to get it to run with playable crispness/laggyness and fps on dx11, because for whatever reason the turn-time being almost-halved remains true in dx11 for me. I started a new game now, not specifically...

    Civ5 performance analysis

    Well these are my measurements in dx10/11. I would not know another explanation, the measurements stay consistent and there is really not much that directx10+ could otherwise be doing that would give such a positive performance impact on turn times I think. DirectX does not control in any way...

    Civ5 performance analysis

    I just did an old fashioned stopwatch benchmark on a late huge stl earth map. I checked 3 turns and made sure nothing was different, I tested the run of 3 turns 2 times for dx9 and 2 times for dx10/11 modes, my gpu is a gtx 260 only dx10 but it did show something really interesting, apparently...

    here it is: Atlantis

    true Kanoval, but what we know about them, texts, traderoutes with other cultures, descriptions of them by contemporary cultures doesn't resemble what Plato described, also they were a known civilization to plato. (not to mention one of the greatest powers and civilizations of it's time) If...

    here it is: Atlantis

    Erm, I'm sorry to dissappoint you, But The civilization around Santorini was the Minoan civilization, It's been argued as being atlantis except that Plato likely knew the minoans already, since greeks and egyptians traded with them. Some minoan architecture does fit somewhat with descriptions of...

    here it is: Atlantis

    -Homer had squat to do with the atlantis story. -Plato wrote down the story after learning about it in egypt -It was already a long lost civilization in Plato's time. -It can't be the mediterranean because there simply is not enough room for an island big enough for an ancient to call a...

    here it is: Atlantis

    lol.. sure and we're fighting a secret war to save our species, and goauld ships aren't flying pyramids but saucer shaped in the real version :mischief: I know of a theory (by a non scientist lol) that tries to link various old myth, legend, history and religion to a stargate type object...

    here it is: Atlantis

    Not entirely correct. Yes the only historical account is from plato, who got the story on his travels in egypt. But the pillars meaning the straight of gibraltar is 100% conjecture. There is no historical fact at all that explains what's meant with the pillars of heracles. Do a search among the...

    here it is: Atlantis

    Sweet, was thinking of doing a fictional atlantis, write a fictional history based on current myth and religions. Heck I should still have a 3d max model of an atlantean women inspired by the looks of the disney movie somewhere to make leader image. But it's been ages since I've done 3D and...
