How many people fit in Atlas Park?

A little bit ago in Atlas Park 4, Samuraiko was musing that she wanted to combine the demorecords from all the instances of Atlas Park into a single demo, to show everybody who is in the protest in a single scene. I wrote an script to do just that, extracting the costumes from everybody currently in the Atlas Park instances that I could get to, and putting them in the steps of City Hall.

This is what it looks like:



(Click for full size! Seriously, the small image doesn't do it justice.)

I couldn't get in to Atlas Park 1, so it doesn't include the heroes that are there, and I am probably missing a lot of heroes in the instances that closed after I snapshotted them. But already the demo plays at less than 1 frame per second, and a lot of heroes are ignoring the holdtorch emote they are supposed to be doing!

I think there's not going to be enough space in those stairs once the rally actually starts...

Edit: HUGE image was breaking the forums, I linked a smaller image.

I'll see if I can't get folks to crowd under Atlas as well and around the sides... what a shot that'd make...

I'd like to see a mastershot like this when we're at peak population. That could really tell a story...especially if we can get all the PCs ;holdtorch'ing.

A video would be even better, but that would make most computers whimper.

Really is breath-taking, isn't it? Nicely done, looking forward to seeing if you can pull it off once the event is in full swing.

Amazing image. Anyone else immediately reminded of the final scene of the original CoH trailer?

I'm in AP2 right now. So far I'm seeing 7 Atlas Parks... most were full but 7.

Anyway, awesome job with the image... And DR, that sounds like a great idea!!

I don't think the client would be able to handle it. Right now, it's not rendering the torch for more than 50 heroes or so; and that's with particle effects at max. My computer is pretty beefy and I'm still getting less than 1 frame per second.

So far, the client hasn't crashed, but I'm not sure how many more characters it can handle.

Do what you can, and then send me the demofile... I ramped up my own computer so I'd be curious to give it a try.

Leo, your pic is now up on Kotaku. I just mode a post there to acknowledge that it was your work.
