Welcome to the Fighting Through Darkness (FTD) thread, FTD is a creepy horror game that was origionally Modern Combat, but changed because I realised I'm not that into war and such.
Anyway FTD is basicly a sequel to The Undead (Uber Hyped FPSC Horror Game) it starts a week after The Undead finishes, so you have to fight your way through the aftermath in the streets of Sloden City, just after the creatures get to the surface.

If you want to play The Undead its available for download at the downloads section on my website (you can also check the reviews on the news page)

Engine Details:
Basic FPS Movement
Super fast ultra accurate collision (Thanks to NGC)
Pretty Good AI
Working weapon system
Exploding Barrels
Really cool menu

To Do:
Add more weapons
Make more levels
Get the weapon select system working
Make it scarier!

Looks cool!

If the flashlight always points forward, couldn't you just have a ghosted plain in front of the camera with a circle of light texture.

Ok, great, since I dont want to be off on the mutant, would you be ok with drawing a simple image or two of whats in your mind of the mutant? And maybe a list of animations would be nice

Ya that looks great NatFlash! The FPSC Media looks so much better with good lighting.

P.S. Maybe you could normal map the tube in the first pic or whatever.

Well I dont know about normal mapping just one thing, I was gonna normal map the whole level, but it turns out its not possible with lightmaps; what I'm trying to sasy is if I normal map the pipe then it wont fit in with the rest of the level.

it seems my post in the FPSC forums that in DBP the levels look better is true

it looks way better,and the framerate is more acceptable too.

Well they're not really FPSC levels, they're levels made in 3D World studio with non FPSC textures; and then populated with FPSC media, all lightmapped with 3DWS's exellent lightmapper; also I've started modelling so they're will be a little more custom media, I might include my AK (attached image).
As for the game, the game is in a playable state, so I could upload a demo, but the only problem is that the level is nowhere near big enough, to enjoy.

BTW I'll be uploading a video\trailer in a minute.

Well here it is! The first Fighting Through Darkness trailer, its quite short but you'll get the "feel" of the game.
Hope you enjoy.
P.S. When walking in the video, it seems that the timing is off but thats just because of Fraps.

Pretty cool video, good job on the lightmapping. Quick question: How did you make the flashlight effect?

The music in the video sounds familar, is it from Resident Evil?

Looks pretty good, the lightmapping works really well. Although the flashlight looks a little bit wierd, would be good if you could get some movement on it for when you turn left and right (Doom 3 style).

Well, the flashlight is just a model of a flashlight, then a ghosted plain with an image on it; I'm going to change it to a pixel shader for a better effect though.
Oh and yeah the music is from the Resi film.

Phew, you know, why did I become a coder; its soooo stressful, you fix a bunch of problems, get some more, fix them get a few unfixable or unexplainable things...
Ah I remember, its the way my mates scream when my game scares the crap outta them, soooo satisfying.
But anyway I'm thinking of releasing a public beta, mainly so I can round up all the bugs from many people, and compare them to see whats causing them, ie. Hardware, drivers or bad coding.
Also it will finally provide you guys with something playable, so guys you decide do you want a public beta or not?

OK, heres some good news and some bad news, the bad news is there will be no public beta; but the good news (wich kinda overwrites the bad news) is that a fully functional demo (not beta) will be up for download either tonight, or early tomorrow.

Well, sorry the demo's taking a little longer than expected, but the level's too short, I've spent most time on the game making the level longer, as the engine is more or less finished; but for now here are more screens.

Hope you like the new HUD I made.

Shweet, although everything in the HUD should be smaller. The bullets a lot, like 3/4ths to half the size; the health not so much, just 9/10ths the size if anything.

Looks quite nice though.

Oh yes, shouldn't we be able to see the outside and the inside of the wireframe object?

Thanks, but I kinda like the HUD as it is, although I'll try scaling them down to see if they look better

Probably, but can you do that in DBPro, without using some incredibly pointless method?

Use SET OBJECT CULL object, 0 and the inside should be visible.

This is looking very nice. I also think that the bullets on the HUD should be smaller.
