Unreal Engine 4 "Elemental" and "Cave" Tech Demos Available for Download! (source: HardOCP)

[MaxAwesome]

just stumbled across this on the hardocp forums.

I'm still downloading, so I don't know if it's legit or not, but i'm very curious.

Here's a link to the original thread @ hardocp with download link:

EDIT: It's legit. Most of you will probably get an error saying there is a dll missing, This is easily fixed by installing Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013

EDIT 2: There seems to be yet another tech demo available, called "Cave". This one It is actually "playable"!

(Please don't forget to say Thanks to akatitan!)

*clicks his own link* mmhhhh seems to work for me and oh well sorry for trying to help.

My Results: i7 2600k @ stock + Asus R9 290 4GB @ stock (947mhz):

I get between 35 and 60 FPS. This is pretty demanding, and it's not even running @ 1080p.

 

[MaxAwesome]

I just checked the CPU usage during the tech demo and it's really low. Doesn't seem like the CPU is the limiting factor GPU usage is around 100%.

 

[MaxAwesome]

So, anyone else running it or what?

I'll wait till it's on a faster more readily available download.

i7 920 @3.8ghz r290 @1040mhz
40 to 62 FPS (fixed max fps I think) at default res what ever that is (1600x900 I think)
20 to 40 @ 2560x1440. (I set it to desktop res to True in Elemental\WindowsNoEditor\Elemental\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\GameUserSettings.ini as I think the SetRes don't seam to work correctly)

RestartLevel to restart level, Exit to Exit.

Stat FPS to show FPS

SetRes 2560x1440 or whatever...

there is also a Cave demo here https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B5qGbn3OCAd8WXViQkpUa2F6aEU&export=download

get 62 fps in medium @ 2560x1440
get 34 fps in high, @ 2560x1440

What kind of trouble are you having?

The Visual Package C++ doesn't want to install. Tried adding the .dll manually. Didn't work.

*I downloaded the wrong package.. It's working.

Be sure to try the "Cave" demo as well! I just updated the first post with the link akatitan provided. It's playable and it is huge, with lots to explore!

That's tough :/ Can you try to roll-back to the previous WHQL and maybe try it?

So far with my 7970, 14.4's have been perfect... Albeit, it's been a day.

Holy BALLS! I was waiting for this forever!

Looks alright, all the old videos hid how bad the textures are. Seems like particle effects and geometry detail are the main attraction.
