Aside from DE, i'm working on Commissions for several small game companies. Currently involved in the project "Megaman: New Horizon"; designing bosses for them. Here's the latest.

You're working with a new Megaman game?! Wow.

Good luck to you, mate. Those concept sketches are awesome.

Oh, and I should probably post a WIP MIDI I'm working on, but I'm not sure which one...out of the 600~ I have in my current music folder.

Shield under construction. In the meantime, I got the chrome duct tape YAY~

Pics of the Gladius coming up:

Next to recieve the shiny treatment is the knife Yellow Jacket. Still cleaning up the other weapons so they're DoomScript compatible...

Is it wooden or plastic? I need to make a new shield too.

That is CPVC with insulation padding covered in duct tape. Boffer sword as they are made here in the US.

Shields were made from foamboard (surface mats that were a bitch to get duct tape to stick to... I had to use a hot glue gun to smoothen out the surface enough)

Foamboard? It must be destroyed after single fight!
Good old wood and leather...

Not against foam padded weapons. They are built like this so my opponents don't have to wear armor.

http://groups.google.com/group/swordtag ... nstruction loosely following these instructions for swords and just using whatever foam padding I can get for shields (probably could have use cardbaord but I didn't feel like taping the whole surface down and making layers upon layers of cardboard...)

Update: I made some flails but I have to consult a boffer community to see if any of them would allow their use since their 'chains' are over 4 inches.

My first real attempt at QuakeC...

Code: Select all

// Doom 3-like real-time flashlight code

// player flashlight state
.float flashlight_state;

.entity flashlight;

void() flashlight_think =
{
makevectors (self.owner.v_angle);
traceline (self.owner.origin , (self.owner.origin + (v_forward * 64)) , FALSE, self);
setorigin(self, trace_endpos + (v_forward * -64));
self.angles = self.owner.v_angle;
self.angles_x = self.angles_x * -1;

self.nextthink = time;
};

void() player_flashlight =
{
local entity newflashlight;

newflashlight = spawn();
newflashlight.pflags = PFLAGS_FULLDYNAMIC;
newflashlight.light_lev = 800;
newflashlight.color = '1.5 1.5 1.5';
newflashlight.skin = 200;
newflashlight.owner = self;
self.flashlight = newflashlight;
newflashlight.think = flashlight_think;
newflashlight.nextthink = time;
};

void () player_flashlight_toggle =
{
if (self.flashlight_state == FALSE)
	{
	self.flashlight_state = TRUE;
	player_flashlight();
	}
else
	{
	self.flashlight_state = FALSE;
	self.flashlight.think = SUB_Remove;
	self.flashlight.nextthink = time;
	}
};

And the result:

Spoiler:

I was blown away by how EASY it was to make things happen in QuakeC, and how easy it was to setup real-time lighting and shadows.

The Darkplaces engine will be PERFECT for that horror mod that I've always wanted to make...

Still working on The Butchery and The Good Guys (ZDoom version)

Slow progress, due to very heavy RL demands, but fixed a few bugs here and there and made better docs for the weapon pack. Next: improve gloves/hands in the weapon pack and upgrade both to use the latest ZDoom stuff, particularly custom state labels - YIPPEE!!

Here is a screenshot of what I've been working on lately...

.

Sorry if it's... a little small. I decided to limit the resolution to 1 by 1.

If anyone wants me to expand it to a little higher resolution, just tell me and I might.

Um... yes, please do.

Add this to my previous list.

And here's a screenshot of the map I did:
