Nope, no dolphins here. All the curves mess up their echolocation.

#4163: How do I make snow?

by Krayon on 07/30/2009 17:48

So yeah, I found out how to make rain and such but I didn't found a way how to make proper snow, What is the particle # and what commands should I use to make a snow effect or something along the lines of snow?

use the smoke particle (9), set shape at cubic facing down (300) and length (3rd value). 4th value is colours
So a snow particle should like this:
particles 9 300 100 0x111 0

#4166: Almost done...

Here are some screens of my upcoming map 2base.

The final version will implement a pseudo-class choosing system using teleporters and ammo rooms.

BTW : thanks for noticing & re-posting the two broken links ;-)

This looks pretty expansive!
The texturing seems to have been done with care, although "5-21" did have that one wall that looks weird, might be okay in-game though.
The only thing that I have to really mention is that the geometry is _very_ boxy - you did some slanting bits here and there, but to really round it off you should work in some debris and broken-bits and it could actually do with a lot of the corners getting "obfuscated".
I mean, like putting in 45° cubes into the corner, or staggering them in a few steps or so - just to make it all feel that much less than a couple of boxes connected by boxes - you know !?! (-:

Thanks for the feedback, I'll work on rounding some of the edges before I release the next version.

I also have a bit more texturing to do.

Also lighting. You could benefit from that one lighting tutorial I saw...
Ah, here it is: http://www.moddb.com/tutorials/lighting-in-game-environments-the-hows-and-whys

Not just the lighting chapter is available - he's written a whole book that interested people might want to buy and ready from cover to cover - he's also provided an example of what he has to say on "gameplay" (layout, map-flow and stuff)

#4172: Regarding texture blending

by SephoD on 08/02/2009 11:37

Hey guys, I don't know if this has come up before, but I was wondering if one could change or add a blendbrush that was to paint walls... I have only been able to get them to work on the ground, and on walls by "smearing". The rotation only works around the z - axes, so I was wondering if there was a chance to make it rotate-able around x and y.

I hope you get what I am saying...

#4173: Directory

by RedWolf on 08/02/2009 20:42

Howdy, I'm in the process of creating a map and I want to load a sky box like the lady in the tutorial did, however I can't find a directory let alone the packages I'm supposed to be able to use...I work off of a Mac Mini if that helps
thanks
Wolf

The final question and answer should interest you most.

This is kind of buried in the readme ... perhaps this question would be asked a lot less if this were more prominent in the documents?

Unless you say "mac" in your initial question/problem then sauerbraten mac support won't know to answer.
