Maybe somebody with access to the Chinese GW2 client could fill me in on this. But I assume the hall of monuments was never implemented (afaik the Chinese GW1 server got shut down in 2008) and judging by some data from the latest patch it looks like they're looking at a way to implement it (?)

Here's an example, both use 4096 samples, both renders look almost identical but the 0.01 noise threshold render took 8 seconds to render and 0.10 only 3

The difference: - CPU: 01:19 - GPU: 00:10

absolutely (even though the newer versions of EEVEE also has nice raytracing features now). But maybe this will help: 1. Make sure GPU rendering is actually enabled (optix for nvidia, HIP for AMD and oneAPI for intel ARC) 2. Make sure GPU Compute is selected and lower the default samples

All it is missing was a tunnel update and dragons kissing, other than that I'm quite satisfied with the final VoE update

I knew the Inquest doesn't play fair but their snake game keeps breaking on me...

The new map has some cool locations out of bounds 😬

The Additional Requisition Team Contract adds 1 extra option to your board, not an entire new board (that would be nice but probably a bit too over powered)

Among a lot of other new things yesterdays Guild Wars Reforged update did add an updated icon for the The stalker ration + compass (which hasn't been released because the compass is still being buggy) Also I feel the reforged coins (unlocks a large stack of consumable buffs every day) are dubious.

My F2P account reached another stupid milestone 😅 time to unlock that extra character slot!

The unofficial (but cooler) #GuildWars2 discord server had another great Vloxx outfit idea and I tend to make dreams come true! (nightmares are technically dreams right?)

Spending way too much time reading gemstore data I noticed all Janthir Wilds items have a typo in the requirement text..

Absolutely useless #GuildWars3 fact of the day. I noticed in all concept art everybody needs to either look away or obscure their face from the camera unless they are Kodan. I'm sure this will be quite important.

Made some major changes to the backend of the gemstore page. It should now also show items that don't have a fixed end date but are available at the bottom of the page. If you encounter any weird results let me know!

Looks like the material icons of the #GuildWars vault box have been updated to include Zaishen Coins and whatever the Reforged Coins are supposed to be

The single use birds eye compass and stalker's ration are already dropping after yesterday's GW1 update but looks like there's some new infinite items on the table as well www.reddit.com/r/GuildWars/... www.reddit.com/r/GuildWars/...

It looks like the flickering cut scenes from the recent patch are probably caused by how it does fade-ins. It basically draws the background layer a second time on top of the character that needs to be faded in and it seems that either the interpolation or blending calculations fail (hard to tell)

Stepping through the render calls the Lion's Arch selection- (left) and character creation screen light maps look completely broken compared to how they're supposed to look (right)

Don't know when this happened but the "Lion's Arch" character select screen looks almost flat shaded now 😅

A lot of times when I try out new builds I have to keep reminding myself those don't automatically put fun in functional. Some of the "best" rated builds can be an absolute slog to play for your taste so I really recommend trying out different options to find one that does click with you

Changing mount dyes on a F2P account is also possible but more advanced. You need to paste a Travel Template chat code with the dyes applied (either from a second account or hand crafted) into your current fashion template.

Here's a neat trick you can do: if for some reason you have a mount skin unlocked on a F2P account (which shouldn't even happen in the first place) you can actually equip it by selecting the "randomize mounts" option in the fashion menu

Now if the idea was to make people play longer by stretching everything out like this it completely backfired on me this time. I had to step back for a while so I wouldn't get burned out on the game. End of rant. Back to making creepy Vloxx renders to make up for it.

Ever since that #GuildWars3 trailer and concept art was released people kept seeing Asura with fur in them... so I decided to load Vloxx's model in blender and BY JOKO'S MAGNIFICENCE!! FURRY VLOXX ISN'T REAL. IT CAN'T HURT YOU!

Funny to see how Guild Wars 3 is still referred to as project "moon" internally on for example the account page after being announced 🌙

For example standing in the Mistlock Sanctuary with every setting maxed out the game still only used 1.2gb of texture memory even though there is a huge amount of players on screen. Changing the resolution from 1024x1024 to 2048x2048 would still fit on an 8gb GPU

And Tenor finished in last place! (big surprise).. maybe when Guild Wars 5 is announced they'll approve the gifs..

Fun fact about the PBR rendering pipeline they're going to add to GW2 in the future, they've been shipping the uncompiled shaders to client for a couple of months now
