  • bug in the tool the processes exported geometry into the runtime format, causing a lack of smoothing groups on a lot of geometry (causing faceted appearance)
Not sure if its just an older build currently on test, but this problem still seems to be around.

I don't see the problem anymore on test. Compare these pictures taken from the exact same location, at the same exact time (I was logged into both at the same time). You can almost tell just from the thumbnail images, but click them for the full view and click back and forth to compare. You should see an obvious difference.

Thanks again BAB for the info on the fix.

I actually hadn't noticed it on live, honestly. Not sure why... But when running the Kalinda's missions on test today, as well as some newspaper missions, I was seeing it all over the place.

Edit: I noticed it mostly in caves, both the snakes caves and the caves like those in the hollows missions. As far as screenshots of my own:

This is live.

This is test.

So apparently, some places have been fixed, while others have broken.

If you think something isn't fixed, post some specific examples so somebody can look into it..

My pictures show that it's fixed for the most part. I'd like to see what areas you are referring to so I can compare for myself as well.

Was in the process of taking and editing in some screenshots. :P

edit: For anyone who wants to check out this same spot, its the entry to the first mission in Burke's arc, the "Get away with an op" one.

I am so happy! Master_Blade's pic of the test Talos hill is the way it had always looked up to recently. Glad the terrian will once again look as it should.

Confirmed. I just went into "The Tunnels" in the Hollows and I see exactly what you show in your pictures. It looks great on Live, but it appears broken on Test:
