I have still not been able to remove this caustic effect from new levels, it appears to be applied to everything in the level, some help would be appreciated.

Also will we see some documentation for this soon?

the caustic shader is in shaders/common/postfx/caustics, delete it.

it happens when you run in debug mode.
I have never seen it happen in release mode.

Hi Deepscratch,

Couple of questions, do we need to do all the engine work to compile the game to get the full functionality, or can we just do the steps to merge the game into the project we create and play.

Also How do I get the chariot, or other legged vehicles? Seems like I can only use is the jeep, truck and 2 cars, the jet is there but the character does not stay eyes front and there is a blurred vision.

Thanks

@Tom Timothy,
yes you can.

@Brian M,
the amount of changes in DRIVE make it easier to merge your project into DRIVE, rather than DRIVE into your project.
if you have code and script experience, then go for it.
I would not recommend a novice try the reverse merge.

the chariot, oxCart and sedanChair are available through the editor, under Rigid Vehicles tab, and under Physics Vehicles tab.

I have an update that corrects the console errors, and fixes the camera issue in flyingVehicles, flyingVehicle cameras are now like wheeledVehicles(mouse look and keyboard steering).
I'll upload it by the weekend.

the blurred vision is a motion blur shader that activates when the player mounts. you can set it off, or adjust the amount of blur.

my web host had a melt down, and my store was lost, it may take some time to get the store up and running again.

if anyone is interested in getting the kit immediately, you can eMail me at: medan121 at gmail dot com

Does the kit work with just bullet?

physx is enabled in it, but the vehicles are either Rigid Class, or Bullet Class.

you can use the Rigid Class vehicles in a PhysX build.

@deepscratch: You should checksum the zip, test it, upload and test the checksum at the other end. You know where to reach me for help with automating that :)
