The podcast # 9 published today by Giants Software does not add anything new. He goes back to the parallax occlusion mapping used for the relief textures of Farming Simulator 22, to the content of Farmcon, and presents the “lil new” which is not really a new one.
For parallax occlusion mapping, which will provide more relief, particularly on land and FS 22 buildings, we have already examined the subject lengthwise, broadly, and across. No need to elaborate on the subject, I refer you to this article which explains this texturing technique in detail. Lars and Chaki came back to it because Giants Software also published an introductory article during the week.
For Farmcon, same observation, Giants Software has communicated on the dates and the Farming Simulator 22 content that will be presented. We have also recapitulated all this, in French, in an article published a few days ago. What should be remembered is that the first gameplay images will be released this Thursday, July 22 after 20 p.m.
Finally the 3rd info of this podcast is certainly the most important. It is about making the presentations with the replacement from Elany, the American community coordinator who only stayed a few weeks at her post. It is replaced by "Kerminator". This nickname probably tells you a few things if you hang out on the Giants Software Discord, since Kermit is already Ambassador for the United States. As Lars clarified in a humorous post this week, “We have to get rid of one of our ambassadors. It's sad to say that he made a huge mistake and therefore cannot be with us anymore. Let this remind you to think twice when signing things. " An original way to warn us of the change of post of Kermit, which we congratulate in passing. The Chicago office is still not open, due to the health crisis, he is in charge of the American community from his home. We wish him good luck in his new functions.
