Looking great as always.

The HUD is nice--I like the simplicity. Some HUDs can be a bit complex so it's nice to see something a little cleaner and nicer.

Keep up the good work .

Couldn't you just change that in the global game settings? Anyways, your HUD is cool.

I think he has it set to a trigger zone because he wants full control of a different fog for each level. Instead of a constant throughout the game.

Hi guys,
I havenow got the visual damage system up and running. This will help you keep a eye on your characters health. The more blood splats there are,the worse your character is. Attached is a picture of the system working inside FPSC. I would like to know your opinions on how good/bad you think this system is.


please leave feedback

Hehe! This reminds me alot of Resident Evil and Silent Hill ^^

I think your idea for the damage system is good, but won't it get a bit annoying having to run around with blood splats in the middle of the screen until you find health? Just my opinion :p

Looks great!

Meh...

@Butt monkey: Fair point you have there. The blood decals on the screen shouldn't be that destracting anyway. I might lower the "plrhealthless=100,hudmake decal1" to a lower value so the decals appear at around 40Hp,but im not sure.I think the decals give the game a rather cool effect,but thats only my opinion

@sith lord : Cool dude. I look forward to your review

You could look up some places on the web for a script that makes the screen shake when you get hurt, it will bring a good feeling in combat based situations. I don't know of any like that though..

So you are going to have some flashbacks and stuff like that? Very good, but i hope they're not like all the flashbacks in some anime series i have seen. I just can't wait 'til it's released!

Hi guys,
Here is a screenshot of sightjacking in action.The picture is showing the player a axe that is leaning against a wall. This could mean that there is a enemy nearby,but it could also be showing you a useful weapon,I will let you guys deside (im not giving away anything!!) This is a WIP screenshot remember. Please leave feedback

A bit too dark to see anything.

Maybe you can have the object you wanted attention drawn to in full color against a black and white background.

Hello,
I need your help guys. A massive probelm has occured with FPSC. There seems to be a strange type of texture/lightmapping corruption. This never used to happen before. I only noticed this problem today when i fired up FPSC. As you can see in the shot atttached,the shadows are jagged and sharp. This effect happens on walls aswell. You don't notice this problem if you room is lit up,but as soon as there are shadows,this occurs. I have tried a repair install of FPSC,I have tried using updates RC9 and V,105 RC1 which both used to work before. I have also tried un-installing the updates,and re installing them,but it hasn't worked. So i am left with two choices. If this problem can be resolved by help from you guys then everything will continue as normal,if not then I shall have to quit using FPSC until a fix is found due to i can't continue game dev while this problem is around. I really don't want to quit,but I am afraid it might be my only choice if this problem can't be solved. But hopefully,you guys will offer some suggestions on how to fix this. I will keep trying solutions for a while until one of you guys posts with a suggestion. A screenshot is attached showing roughly what the error is. (notice the shadows). I am also using the LATEST version of direct x.


PLEASE help guys

The problem is that in the recent FPSC upgrade, the setup config file in the FPSC folder (where the .exe for the prog is) was modified. The light mapping quality was reduced.

If you open the setup config file in notepad, you will see the [game make] section, and you can change the lightmapquality there

Hope this helps!
Paul
