Hello guys,

This is our little update to keep you people posted on the situation of "Scorched Skies"

Ok firstly i've been trying my hand at making the 'dragon' for the game (as the player character)...we could still use a semi to professional modeller but here is a picture any way -
[img][/img]

And secondly we are going to use CGI effects on the opening of the game to show the companies name (both King Gamers and Anire) and then CGI intro which should be very nice

we are also working on some background music, two types, one for causal flying and the other for high intensity FIGHTING

hopefully we should get all the odd bits done by the end of this week including...skybox/sky sphere....Map.....rest of model.....collision......AND intro



Thanks for reading, stay in touch

Hmmm, this dragon is a start, but i dont know if it fits the game. see, i did not read all the posts, in fact i did only read the last ones, but i think, if you guys need a dragon, and if you don't need id immediately, maybe i could do this work for you. only if you are interessted in leting me help.
I got a bit experience in modelling and at the moment im in a team developing an RPG about william tell(German / Swiss) at www.tell-thegame.ch the caracter shot, the animal and the wagon are some of my work there, got few more, but not official to show, as buildings and weapons.
Got not that much time at the moment, but i could find som quiet minutes between work and sleep to help you a bit.
By the way, i dont think its bad work, no. but if you would se my coding, you would think the same: it works, but ther can be some more...
send me a mail if interessted, my english is not that well, but it should work.
[email protected]

greets around!

Take this to the W.I.P boards if you're going to be constantly posting progress updates, though keep them to a minimum if you can.

@ RUCCUS
Why take this to the W.I.P boards now?

It isn't on the verge of being finished cause we have still got quite a bit of work to do...

@ DB newbie

The theme is dragons and for the world try just making it like natural
stuff like mountains and canyons etc (I will help make a continent don't worry)

@green7

Sure welcome aboard. Can you design realistic stuff though?
I can code, map build and music and CGI design but being colorblind I can't model anything

Till then,
DarkEternity

Any way let me just say to DB newbie and Green7 welcome to the team, i hope we have a long profesonal if not fun time working together


May i just say how i came up with this project was by looking at the birds...and watching them fly, and i thought "god dam, i wish i could do that " then it came to me....MAYBE i can



But any who, keep these fourms up with Q's and ideas to shape and structure the game

Hi its me again...

Ive just finished desgining the bases for another creature of this world of dragons, because mother nature cant just have dragons, lets start with the caves how does any creature survive with out light? well here we have mother nature or more like my nature devepling one of the more, cuter creatures of this world, the Glou.
[img][/img]
Yes i no it looks realy werid but still, its an early rendering

Ok so let me talk you through it, its body has a subtance that produce light plus its skin is realy thin there fore creating light for all in the caves to enjoy. And those werid ball things are feet, i know, i know. its not going to roll but wondel, its going to wodel along while that little trunk of its sucks up all the food it can musta. So there we have it..its not all about Dragons

Just sheding some light on the world


Peace out

Thanks Dark Eternity, so I'll support you in the case of art and modelling. maybe longer, maybe shorter, but that depends on what's going on in real life.

First:
-Who's in the team by now (greets to all!)?
-Who's got the lead ?
-Who tells me what work to do?
-Is there a concept, or a story, an idea? does everyone in the team know what we're doing? i need to get a bit more infos, a short one lasts for now.

For all those thinking: Noob project, don't waste your skills...
Let me tell you: my work here is for experience, theirs and mine, for fun and for entertainment. isn't that all what we want in a game? so let the developing be the same! Forget the run for fame and money, if you search for those two, get a job...

Hey, gd luck with that! Just a quick suggestion, I mean u should probably ignore me, but if u check ur DB directory, there are 2 dragon models on there, perhaps u could use them? And you could always re-use the code from Monster hunt to make the fireballs?

sorry for the double post, its a birt confusing with that admin thing, they post the few first ones later so i thought i had not posted, cause i could not see it.
Now, i started the dragon, if it's all right, som early shots this evening maybe.

a few questions

-Which parts should be moveable? Perhaps Eyelids, mouth, even tongue...
-Can someone post a scratch or real screen or something where i can see how big that thing is at final. i need this for to find out the detail grade. the one posted is a bit too small...
-How detailed must it be at last, is the viever always behind, are closeups needed, is there a rider on the dragon?
-what kind of dragon do you want. Ice? Red, black, green, gold, mecanical, death...?
-is it more medieval style, or future?

there comes fun in people! Or if this got to far about thinking about concepts... earlyer or later we need something writen down about how and what we or you want.

Hello,

may i just start by saying that ive read through the last few posts and im over joyed that Green7 is asking the right kinda Questions but some are ones i should talk over with DE when we talk later tonight, ok but i can fill in most of the blanks here and now

for 1, i belive we have myself, DE, DB newbie over there, yourself and a few people from DE's company (anire)

Secondly, Well i started this project but i think its a group of leaders, DE has taken alot of the strain so this isnt just my project any more so i think that its mine and DE's project along with yours and DB newbie, so to close on that Q any one who is in the team can take any idea and put it into the game aslong as we all agree.

No one can tell you what work to do, we can tell you what needs to be done then you can decide weaver or not you want to do it . You might think im being to nice but i feel that a team should be built on trust. But as for these next few Q's i feel i should discus it with DE before closing.


ow and BRAUDE Man thanks for your advice, but i did have a look at those dragons before i started and didnt like there look looked to scary for what im going for here. And as for the fire ball, im sure when the time comes we will use that example as a bases. Thanks again

and DB newbie didnt think i was ganna forget about you, did you ?
Ill leave that little post to DE, he is better at dealing with Mapping issuses.


Thanks to all of you, keep up the posts

ok, thanks for the answer.

what do jau mean, "they look scary"? Would jou prefer a Frendly looking dragon, or some comic style? its only a question about the design, nothing else. not that i do the wrong thing, need to set the last three feet and the wings and the texture, rest is finished... or do i start better new?
bacause i try to do samething like those here...

WARNING MASSIVE POST!!!

Trust I to be the one day I take a break and go watch Southend play football the forum gets swamped...

Also *sympathy hunting* I kinda just got rejected by this girl I liked for ages...although not all hope is lost


@ DB newbie Ok sure do it however you want... just remember it is harder to get things to smooth out next to each other then build it together

@ Braude man I would use that code if you could do a rapid fire system thing with that but I am going to modify that code greatly to get the fireball script

@eray thanks for leaving the mapping to me *breaks down from strain*

@green7 I cant answer all your questions because we are still discussing some of them but here I go:

about the riders... there wont be any

Quote: "-what kind of dragon do you want. Ice? Red, black, green, gold, mecanical, death...?
"


we want a customisable character selection system...

you choose your eyes and your skin etc

hope you dont mind but I assure you it will be harder to program that system in then it will be for you to design the models for it

the model must be very detailed and very movable because we want it to be as professional as posible


TO EVERYONE: we are not just making this a shoot fire and kill game
this game will have a real sense of community and high speed and realism (my aim with this is to create a seamless world full of action and adventure using amazing graphics and advanced anti lag tools)


get eray to tell you what he wants out of this project

Eray has asked me to send an update about the character creation describing it but I need to rest...

that is the briefing for everybody for now...

Till then (yes i know i keep saying that)

These are Very nice concepts Green and if you could recreate these it would be realy nice.

There is one thing i wanted some evil dragon parts but i also wanted magestic dragons and all different types of dragon parts

I know this character creation thing sounds a bit of hard work but i think it will be WONDERFULL at the end of it all.

I think we need different Textures of each thing..one Dark, one light, one in all the basic colours. but above all we need these things to be animated sepratly

* Arms
* Legs
* Eyes
* Torso's
* Tails
* Heads
* colour schemes

would it be easier to just texture them in DBP ? lyk the person choses the colour...and it textures the arm (for example) instead of loading a new model for a red arm...it just textures the arm wid a Colour.

To answer your Q on what i want out of this project, its simple, I want a REALISTIC flying simulation (in affect) in which you dont just use your fire to kill your enemies, you have dog fights in the air, you use your skill and your tactics to out smart the enemies. So yes thats what i wanted....Kinda.

im going to leave you with this Quote, maybe some body made it up or maybe its real, all i know is it inspired me

"No doubt but there is none other beeste comparable to the mightie dragon in awesome power and magestie" - Gildas Magnus, Ars Draconis, 1465

ok, hard work, but not impossible.
other question: are you using dbpro or classic? it matters for the bones or limb construction. classic got no bones...
and my exporter got problems with bones, got to test it out to make it finaly work, maybe.
changeable parts would be easyer with limbs and not bones, bur the result looks better with bones than with single parts.

Hello,

Hmm i belive the DE is doing it in pro.


And i belive that erm Green, I think you should do it in the way that looks best and causes the least problems? if them two are posiable together. Thanks for Accepting the Character Custumision.

And if you are reading this and wondering what you can do to help, well just post your skills or/and ideas on to this forum and we will get back to your real soon.


stay happy , Eray

hmm, i think it would work now with the bones, got the trick.
But the thing about the changeable parts, that would be heavy to solve in this case. changeable colers aren't a problem, that are only different textures.
The problem with the parts: the only working exporter i found (and i searched a darned long time)only works proper if the exported object is one single mesh. so a solving could possibly be, to export the eyes maybe as one object, the head as one object and the body as one
and reattach it again in dbp.
about customizing parts:

What should be customizeable?

maybe:

-Eyes: Color
-Head: Shape, color
-Neck / Tail: lenght, color
-Tails peak: Shape, color
-Torso: shape, color
-Wings: shape, color
-Additional stuff like fur patches, feathers, horns

Or:

Only the general style of the dragon, for example: Ice or death or whatever and the color.


the first ones will be much cooler, but it means a biiig huge amount of work! Not that it is impossible, no. but it will use its time.

the second one uses its time too, but its much less work.

I would say: lets first try the second one, so we got a feeling for how it looks and stuff. the second one will come in if the first demos rocks?

no stress about it... if the weather would be better around here, i would be probably out and doing else.

Now, i got a idea: If the whole game is an multiplayer thingy, what about factions, if there, lets say for a round, maybe five factions, say red, green, ice, death, and sand. now, there is a big map, where every faction with say four to six players per faction starts at the edge of the map. they own their own teritory, better said, they own a tower and the land surrounding. the style of land surounding the tower depends on the dragons style, for example, the death got a graveyord or things, the red a lava field, sand a dsert, green a forest, ice snow.
now, there are further towers around the map, which can be captured and which then get the territory biger, what means some bonus or something for the faction, maybe as in the old but funny game "Z". faster flight speed, stronger defence, stronger fire. best to be chosen one of these if a tower is captured, it means more individualism and a little feeling of "caacter creation" while the match is ging on. Towers can be lost and recaptured. so the landscape is steady on change, maybe a huge gravejard or a huge desert...

Nowif there is a captured tower, he can be manned with an anti dragon
whatever thingy, this costs the faction money which can be collected by hunting traders waggons which wander around the ground randomly. burn the waggon and you got a bit of gold. fortify jour towers, get a dragon prewarning system maybe or other things, but be aware, these things get all lost if you lose the tower. there could be maybe wagons with traps...

at last is there the fight in the air against the other factions. killing means money and experience. if you get pwned, you can respawn at a tower under your controll after 10 or 15 secs. maybe loss of xp or an ability.

@ Green7

We have been talking and we were thinking the first one but that aint final... Also this aint final but I was thinking like one model multiple textures but a couple of different shaped bodies etc so it all works together...

None of that is final ... Eray put that bat down I said it werent final!!!

@DB newbie

No problem I have designed a massive part of my continent now so I am going to build that into the demo as well...

@Green7 again

I know you cant see his post yet and soon it will appear above this post so bear with it...

We have been talking about "factions" and stuff but that really needs more talk...

Also XP and stuff will be included because it isnt really a massive multiplayer without that is it?

Till then See ya,

I was gonna do level of detail in the options menu... If you were to use the 512x512 high detail style textures then in the options I could scale it to 128x128 and 256x256 etc

Also I have started adding 5.1 surround sound to the game now... Anybody got surround sound?

Also we are talking about a smart load system with full fog settings so the game runs smooth and crisp at all times...

The server capacity for this game is at the moment estimated at 250k people at a time... The server will be running a special version of it to keep it smooth


Till then,

Hello, sorry for the late post,

Ok i shall use Quotes for this starting from the top..

Quote: "lets first try the second one, so we got a feeling for how it looks and stuff. the second one will come in if the first demos rocks? "

I feel that if this is your profosional opinon, I think we should go with it, maybe forget about all this cusomliastion for the minute and focus on that bit last.

Quote: "hey guys sorry i didnt make the 3 terrains i said that i would i just didnt have time i was doing things around the house playing baseball and things."


I understand that we all have our own lives but i would still lyk to see the first hint of any map from you please DB newbie, I know you did that map for us earlier so i know you can but i would like to see some result some time soon sound fair ?

I think it sounds pretty fair myself but to be honest Eray no offence but i think everyone else needs YOU to show what you have been doing as co team leader...

Good...You don't play golf or tennis by any chance though do you?

jep eray, cool little creatures, the tentacle thing would be my favourite. the glou looks a bit like the thing out of teletubbies!
no, was a joke, no offence. i would prefere more something like a spider with a glowing back. they make giant nets in the caves and try to catch dragons...

that wormy flix thingy is cool too, could belocated in the desert, sandworm style.

so, good night folks, 'til tomorow.

Hey everybody,

One problem fixed one problem begins... REMEMBER THAT

I set up a forum on ANIRE and when it was finished I discovered that my account had permission problems...

So i ring up my host and they say close down your account and reopen it... I do that and then i reopen it and i get to activation and then... BANG!!!!!!!! activation error... so i close down the window after multiple tries and I try again and get "your domain is already in use" and after a 20 minute phone call i get "we will call you back after the problem is resolved"...

So anyway... I cant upload the pictures without my domain so I have no choice but to try and get this problem fixed A.S.A.P

ALSO WE ARE NEARLY 100 POSTS I AM POSTING 100!!! AND YOU DONT MESS WITH THAT

so anyway the usual till then speech and goodbye

Till then,

DarkEternity

A couple of things first.

1) I can do the majority of the screens like in game pause menus and the main screen (New game load game etc)

2) can you give me any info onhow you would like the screen to work. (Keyboard controls or mouse)

3) any graphics you would like me to use you can send to me on [email protected]

Sorry for the delay but I am sure I can start as soon as possible.

P.s I assume you are using dbp.

Cheers
