I'd use reference photos from Google to check how bright specular maps of certain materials should be, to make it look nicer...

If I was ever given the opportunity to remove all the bad from the world, I wouldn't, because for there to be heroism, compassion and all that is good, there must also be all that is bad.

This is the thing I have made this game for. I want to show X9 users that X10 is more than just a game editor used for making water filled scifi games with huge amounts of bloom and the chugshot as the main weapon.

For beta testers: I will be sending the beta out to you all soon. Check your Email now and then.

Looks nice, a little too grunged and rusted, a tad too dark but other than that its not bad.
Hm... what's wrong with the floor?

I like it very much! The gun retexture is nice and I like the hud! The environment looks great too!

Hey guys. I'm sorry that I haven't updated in a while. Rest assured that we have been workng hard on the game. DyVo has finished up both of the weapons for the IPG. These babies fire off bullets filled with a highly corrosive substance called quantonium. It eats through armor, flesh, and bone with ease, making them much more powerfull than Resistence technology. The only downside is that they lack accuracy because they are filled with liquid.

I will be getting the beta out to testers very soon.

Have a great day!

Coach Shogun, your encouragement is always welcome!

Metal Devil, the big alien in the last screen is a Clave. It's pretty obvious why the Resistance hates them. I mean, just look at it!

Anyways, the screenshots I took are just too many for one post so I will update this thread with new screenshots every 2 hours.

Here's the first batch showing off the locales of the LV21 industrial ground base. There are walkways above the streets so that the more fortunate people can walk around without stepping in garbage up to their waist.

These are the last pictures until the demo.

Thanks for your kind words and for those voice acting lines. I know I've said it about a million times already, but the demo is just about wrapped up. Just some quick questions before I release it though.

1. How many of you are either interested in beta testing, or are already beta testers?

a: Hockeykid

b: MetalDevil123
2. Who else would be willing to do some voice acting?

I'm back!

I am sorry to say that FPSC X10 has glitched out to the point of no return. Therefore I am no longer using FPSC X10. I am now working on LV21 on the Source Engine. Here are some screenshots.

That really stinks that you lost all of your work in x10. Have you tried the v1.10 beta yet?

EDIT: BTW, those source maps look nice. I'm trying to learn Hammer too. I'm steadily getting there, lol.

To fix your shiny weapons, place an env_cubemap in the middle of your room, compile (Run map), open the console in-game and type buildcubemaps. The map should reload and any cubemapped surfaces should appear correctly.

@ Coach Shogun & GoW: Look at these sites for help with Hammer.

Thanks for all the encouragement guys. I am experiencing a strange bug with Hammer,but once that's all fixed, I will have some shiny new pics for you all.

If anyone here knows what's causing this problem, I could really use some help...

I have posted a picture here. It's not very informative, but I have gone over the build script at least a dozen times and I have found no evidence on what is causing it. I have tried restarting Steam, restarting my computer, and even reinstalling SDK.

Are you using the Orangebox hammer or HL2/EP1?

No worries. After a few full computer cleanings, restarts (not to mention tirelessly pounding on the keyboard in an attempt to break my computer), I have gotten SDK back up and running. This will likely be the last post made by me on this thread, so I will give you all the information you need to continue monitoring this game/mod.

First off, I have ModDB page for this mod, and all screenshots will be posted there from now on. Here's the link

http://www.moddb.com/mods/lv21

Second of all, this is not saying that I will never post on this forum again. I will occasionally post texture packs, news, and tutorials. Unfortunately, these posts will not be as common as they were while I was working with FPSC X10.

Thanks for all of your encouragement regarding this project, and I hope to eventually see a comment or two from you all on the ModDB page.

Over and Out
