Hey All,
Check out this screenshot that just got sent out by Obsidian. These are the first screenshots from Project Eternity which is using Unity. If you are interested in the game, check out their Kickstarter page… http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/obsidian/project-eternity?ref=live
It’s a fixed perspective painted backdrop. I personally loved how they did it in toee.

Looks great !
Looks beautiful, but didn’t they say they’re doing this in the same way as old games like Icewind Dale where they render out environments to layered 2D scenes?
This should reveal a little more of their technique. Taken from http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/obsidian/project-eternity/posts/329689
Nothing impressive, all pre-rendered.
The pre-rendered backgrounds is all part of the charm that brings us back to the Infinity Engine days of Baldur’s Gate, Icewind Dale, etc. While not impressive technically, they are still beautiful and provide lots of nice details in the environment for us to enjoy.
