Re: Project ZD3K (rebuilding it) [update: 21-10-2012]
Can I suggest that you do something about the SUPPORT2 girders (most obvious in screenshot 0035)? The patten on the texture is being cut through by the edges of the sectors/3D floors. It would look much better if you used a texture that fitted in to the correct size/pattern to match the architecture. If that's not possible, a more featureless texture (such as SHAWN2) would probably look better.

Well the whole game aint about shooting at the beginning, it is much like how Half-Life game started... easy and quiet at start, then come all the problem, but Doom style. The fun part come out after you discover what is going on inside the station. Yes there is alot of civilians, which they will become our lovely zombies, some marines will turn zombies too, some marines wont become zombies but will attack them, some will hate you because you messed up with their business.
And you encounter many people in the game which has been key and people i had some fun with in ZDoom, Newdoom and Doomworld forums.
Ex: Dr. Rowand and Ph. Heit are both Scientist that are helping you to find the missing evidence of the experimental project the UAC are doing inside that EDF Space Station.
This is 1 of many TV that are inside the station.Ravick wrote:And... a cat?! o.õ

Don't trust Dr Rowand. That wizard is just a crazy old man.

Added the 2nd mission of 1st hub. You get to meet Dr. Rowand in this mission.
You can also see a prototype of a communication inside your game hud, this is still currently on work.
The more i progress doing these small mission, the whole conspiracy plot start to grow.

I love games that starts when everything is ok, and them shit happens and I have to try to fix it out and try to survive, like in Half Live or Doom3. I'm definitively waiting for this mod!

I don't have much at the moment to share, i am still doing lot of bug fix from many hall of mirror bug, align texture properly... etc.
Map 01 (fixing it atm)
Map02 to map08 completed and fully scripted.
Heres a enormous skybox art i finished. This is going to looks like a GZDoom rendered effect skybox, but it is not using anything of ZGDoom. Everything have been made to works for ZDoom, guess it should look awesome on ZGDoom. Took me 8 days to make this happen. Arts are made from many edited pictures from Nasa's site, most are sized over 7000x7000 pixels.
This skybox is actualy 8125x8125x8125 square size.

Sorry for not showing much progress lately, i have been busy with work but i keep going on the project. I am starting to polish few maps even more, they aren't done yet but i was tired of using old sprite and texture that i made in years 1998-2001. Old computers such as Pentium 1 or 2 with 17 thumb monitor won't be anymore in the game, its OLD technology for a game that will play in year 2999-3000. With the addition of 3D Floors, i have made some possible realistic props but they are still underwork, i do think few of these monitor seem a little larger than living people...
I still have to edit and add weapons that Hellstorm Archon made for me into the game.
Here is the 1st lab than the player will have to explore (underwork)

Since X-DOOM seems to be occupied with real-life stuff and working on this mod, I might as well showcase the weapon sprites I've done so far.
Spoiler: Note: These are just previews, I've PMed the full sprite sheets to X-DOOM
Re: Project ZD3K (rebuilding it) [update: 21-01-2013]
WOWEE!!! This is looking neat! Are there any older versions to download in the meantime?
Re: Project ZD3K (rebuilding it) [update: 21-01-2013]
Yes my friend i am very busy dealing with real-life work and most of my space time i spend them on working on the game, at the moment i am currently polishing the first 10 maps making sure everything in the whole hub get connected. Since the major idea of the first hub is to get the player to visit the space station from the docking bay up to the secret laboratory, everything is normal, beautiful and fine... the mess start right at the very end of the first hub which trigger the second hub, going backward the station from the labs down to the docking bay with everything damaged, usual doors encountered not working anymore, new corridor, monsters/demons and zombies, etc.Hellstorm Archon wrote:Since X-DOOM seems to be occupied with real-life stuff and working on this mod, I might as well showcase the weapon sprites I've done so far.

What taking most of my time is the new weapons Hellstorm Archon have made for me. Scripting them with every actors and npc to make these guns working as i want are a little pain but doable. Adding Hellstorm Archon and Ryan Cordell weapons are doing a great addition.
Unfortunately there is no older version available. I had lost most of the data in the past due to a nasty virus, i managed to recover a great part of files undamaged and few others damaged. I had few backups on burned CD but the engine i made from old ZDoom's source had a major bug with few zombie code. These zombie were acting like those from regular zombie movies or resident evil, they do not have guns, they had limped walk, they would scrath your face hard and bite you.grouchbag wrote:WOWEE!!!

But the game was crashing everytime i had more than 10 zombie in the same area. I never knew why it crashed.
Now after these years, ZDoom upgraded by alot, with the addition of decorate, 3d floors and many more new features, i do not require anymore a custom engine, ZDoom does all i wanted now. I made every npc and actor as they were in my engine and i have even updated them too. I might plan to release the first hub as a demo but the thing is you do not fight much in the first hub. This is not a killing game at the start. It is more build like the old Half-Life game's first chapter. When i started this game i decided i would do something close. The fun start much on the second hub and end at the fifth hub. You will encounted few fighting moment within the first hub still... but don't see monster/demon/zombie yet.
I will have few screenshot coming soon.
I might ask few selected friends here to test what i made so far.
