Did you notice?

Has anyone else noticed if you noclip into the walls... Anywhere there are video screens of people like Dr. Breen, it turns out they are located in a room unaccessable by normal means, actually broadcasting? I suppose the engine made this so realistic it had to be done. Do a console and map d1_trainstation_02 and noclip, run toward the citadel... Off to the left you'll notice a room. It is in fact Breen talking on the screen... Anyone else notice this? Oh and I can hear him on the room, but I have to subtitle to know what anyone on a screen is saying, any idea why?

 

[galoot3000]

yes, its the stage rooms

 

[Pauly]

Yes its all being rendered in real time, not an actual video.

 

[hasan]

yeah, what you see in monitors is REALLY hapenning somewhere on the level, it's not a 2d sprite.

 

[iNetter]

That's pretty crazy when you think about it... I've never seen that in a game.

 

[Juice]

They showed that off in the e3 video if you remember with the Camera that moved around ect ect.

doom3 also has this. works exact the same way.

in fact ... serious sam also has this, but at a much in complex version ... serious sam only has real 3d portals. but u could also get cool effects with it
