So the second one is here. This is gonna be something like 3-4 or more episodes long series. The second patrt is Evil Seeds. I have been working on this for 2 days now. In the first day I mostly drew and tought of the level in my head and made that banner. I made the story better and did a littel bit work on FPSC. But today I did work on FPSC mainly. And made this thread And took screenies.

Story:
So after I got out from the prison I took a little vacation. A couple of days only. I've never seen anything paranormal before in my life, even though I've been into several places. All of them fake.

As I said, I was on my vacation. I got out 2 days ago and I got a call. It seems that I am getting popular.Advertising in the paper pays off, altought I do this for free. But people not seem to like paranormal activity. I always loved places other loath. So the next one will be like a dream. It's a little bigger project than my first one.

Caller told me about an abandoned little city. It's full of junk and empty buildings. But the freakiest thing is this:
The place has black grass and other plants growing everywhere. The ground is filled with them. And the caller told me about movement in there too. I don't know what they are, but they apparently are humanoids. They are very simliar to human, but they make weird noices and they appear as black shadows. At least that's how everybody has seen them. But that just might be that they haven't seen them well, or it was very dark.

I'm off my way now and I hope to come back alive.

Screenies:

I really like the 3rd picture. Great entity placement. But other screens looks very dark. Otherwise it looks awesome. Keep it up!

OMW! *censored* I wish I had your level design abilities
It looks amazing! The lighting is very nice, eerie but I think some other light sources may be in order. It may be an abandoned city but many times there will still be lights on.

Interesting story as well, I will be looking forward to playing this

Wow after i play the first one, i will defenitly try this one. The screens looks nice I feel that your banner is good but i can be improved. As the story line tells its a aboned city i would think that a city would fit nicly into the banner (in the backround ofcourse). I like theese screens all though i think your screens have a little to much entitys, im not saying it looks bad im just saying watch out for lag. Your buildings needs fire pipes(Cant remember the name in english) you know the kind you have on top of buildings... And maybe some emergency stairs on the side of buildings.(sorry i seem to be short of words today)

Anyways storyline is ok, i feel that the storyline can be improved but its defenitly intruiging. just like the last one.

EDIT: Its an aboned city? why what happend? try to explain that into the text with out overdoing it of course. (Not to many fact lines just when and what.)
And the name of your game shouldent be "Paranormal mysteries 2 : evil seeds" it should be just "Paranormal mysteries: evil seeds"

Since its a episode and not a sequal to your last story line.

If you need help with scripts i can help you (since i need practice)

Looking at the number of polys that FPSC is rendering (over 150000 in each screen), I highly doubt this will run at that 40 FPS on lower end computers.

Thanks for your comments everybody!

Quote: "The screens looks nice I feel that your banner is good but i can be improved. "

Thanks! I will make a new banner. That banner wasn't so good after all.

Quote: "Your buildings needs fire pipes(Cant remember the name in english) you know the kind you have on top of buildings... And maybe some emergency stairs on the side of buildings.(sorry i seem to be short of words today)"

Well, I know what you mean by emergensy stairs, but I don't know what yuo mean by fire pipe? But thanks still for your crits.
I will write in why the city is abandoned.

Quote: "OMG, I smell BOTB!"

Thanks!

Quote: "You've been making game after game, you must have a lot of freetime"

Well, yeah. Lately I've been having more and more free time. And my mom hasn't been home so much to tell me to get off the damn computer. lol.

Quote: "Looking at the number of polys that FPSC is rendering (over 150000 in each screen), I highly doubt this will run at that 40 FPS on lower end computers."

Well I doupt so too, now that you made me think of it. Maby I'll make a lower quality version of this. I have quite good computer, so I don't often start thinking of older ones. As I got rid of my old laggy one...

Will try! Thanks man!

Wait, so your going to make a SERIES of games like this?! If yes, I think that is such an awesome idea! It's just like a horror tv show/ novel series! Also, you've really improved on the lighting! Keep it up!

Thanks! I knew from the beginning, that this is gonna be a series. I had so many ideas and it would have been sad to choose just one, so I chose them practically.

No i like your banner just add a city in the backround fire pipes? lol what was i thinking chimneys

And what i missed in your first game is that i feel with that kind of hud, you need like someone thats filming it (player) and when he goes around he is probely scared so maybe he would talk to himself and describe the enviroments?

Ok. Thanks, but I think that that banner is annoying. But let's see if I can get some voiceactors somewhere.

ALSO! I am having this bug now. Even thou I have light on the level, they don't show up for some reason. There is no lighting now. I hope somebody knows what's going on.

Hmm, the lighting problem, I have encountered that before. Check your light map settings in the setup.ini May also want to check if lighting is enabled in the first place If those look fine, try opening preferences and clciking on another light option, press ok. Open again and click back to the one you had before.


See if any of that mess helps you out
Looks great dude!!

I had that same problem with Horror Mod! I just ran the cleaner and kept messing with it and it worked some how somewhat magically.

Good luck...

It ain't working for some reason. The whole level isn't working and I tried everything. Now it's just randomly giving me an error. Mystery error everytime I test teh game. So I think I'm getting rid of this map that I've done and start over or make a second part with one of my other ideas, thst I have. Sorry everyone. But I've tried re-installing and everything to make it work. I am trying to do something to fix all this, but it doesen't look so good right now. But I hope I get it all sorted out.

Ok. Got rid of the errors, but lighting doesen't still work....

Ok! The problem is about static lighting. I turned teh light to dynamic and it worked. But everything looks uglyer now. It seriously doesen't lok good. Why aren't static lights working?

What's your lightmapyquality in the setup.ini? Set it to something like 5, and ligthmaptexturesize to 256. Eventhough it may look uglier, it's way better than dynamic lighting. I have a high doubt that this won' work, since it didn't work with me (it usually does) but never hurts to try?

Do you have another computer that you can use?
Maybe take some screenshots of overview of the map to remember how it was putt together...

No. My mom has a laptop, but... well.... Let's say I'd rather use this one... And this only happens with this map. I have made other maps where lighting works... But I don't know what's wrong with this one. weird...

I got it working... kinda. I did all kinds of stuff and then some of the lights worked. Not all. But now that I tested another time, it didn't work anymore. I think I'm going to start all over... A mod can lock this. Maby I'll do this or one of my other ideas. But, I got no hope roght now for this....

FPSC can be so frustrating some times.. you put hours of work to your level just to see that it doesn't work. I wonder when the perfect update which fixes everything comes
