Default Re: Remake

I think most 3D models (reasonably textured) I saw together were in some epic battles in modded Star Wars: Empire at War space battles. Needless to say, my PC sometimes acts a bit weirdly under the load. Now I'd say that with full capacities there may be several hundreds (if counting laser bolts etc) models on-screen at the same time but it's simply too much at times.

Besides, I think that for the level SP is best at - ie Bn-to-Bde - the top-down view simulates best what the commander really knows. He don't see what the units see in 3D, he has to rely on map. The units may report him their LOS. Top-down view simulates the paper map the best way IMO.
