... unless this really IS part of those lefting 2%... in wich case we could speculate that TCO will be impossibly packed with new content Good to see this is still going strong and 'meaty' ...

Hey, that's the small part of that 2%

isnt that a water vehicle of sorts?

It's a siege boat

By the way, one of the first post pictures has gone AWOL.

Fix whenever you can.

Hellscrag should promote me to missing image alerter.

Kaka, I would love some help with meshifying some brushes. Is it possible, or would they need to be completely redone in a different program? Also, how does texturing come into play?

Meshifying brushes is not agood idea due to facts that meshes have shitty collison, the don't get lit properly and of course = they disappear when you view them in certain angles yeah! All we need atm is to finish boss pawn fix some scenario triggers and shit, record some stuff for dialogues, and some small here an there bugs. We wont throw few years of hard work through the window don't worry. You WILL get to play this.

I'm not talking about using them for map details. I'd only find them useful for weapons, projectiles, certain interactive decorations (things that movers can't cover on their own), and pickups.

Anyhow, it's impossible for me to do it with what I've got, and I was merely asking if you could convert brushes of mine into textured, animationless meshes when you've got the time.

By the way, that fish at the bottom right of that array of pawns looks fantastic.

O shit!:P lol i must have missread your post... YE i can help with that just pm me with the details - ill see how much i would be able to help.

Ok people it's yime for an update!

I'have reorganized all the stuff:

-One map needs gampley set up
-All the maps need special item placement ( I had it done but the gameplay was unbalanced)
-I had to cut one major feature - the spells. It kind of ruined the TCO atmopshere so its good news actually! We might get back with that feature with TCO 2.0 which will support all the neat features Raven had done for RD ( shaders mostly), but only as an option - you will be able to decide if you wanna use this or not ( TCO will come up with one spell but that's something completely!! different!! than nali chonicles stuff)
-Music is more or less done.
-You saw those animal pawns few posts above? We have to animate them, along with two boss Models and two weapon models.
- TCO medical items need an overhaul, same as some of the ammo pickups.
- Outro needs new camera paths!
-Final tests
-Release:P


That's all, just to show you we are close to finish this stuff, don't wanna write the relase date, we all know how this ends up. I'll post some new pics soon so stay tuned.

LOL_PEANUTS - read the post above, if you need help with modeling and texturing pm me with the details.

Sounds very promising!

The most resource-intensive issue would seem to be animation, although I don't know quite what you mean by "special item placement". Sounds like you've finished the build, which can only be good. As to spells, well, I can live without them.

Special items - you have to collect certain items in order to create one special item giving you for example +10% to accuracy etc. Of course there's a small trick you need to master in order to collect those

Sounds interesting!

So as promised, new pic - new TCO medical pickups I made yesterday : Adrenaline, Bandages, Vitamines, Skaarj Nanites, Med Pack.



All of them have different purposes, not all of them repair your health, some heal your wounds, other fix your broken bones. TCO health system has new interesting ideas, which will involve using some of these pickups together in certain situations, like f.e. leg/arm wounds : first player will need to use the bandages to stop bleeding and side effects ( lower accuracy etc.) then find med pack or nali fruit to repair health.

Sounds very complex. It strikes me that there's a risk with that kind of thing of over-engineering gameplay beyond what is appropriate in a straight first person shooter format. But the meshes look sweet to me!
