Jaw Drop,words fail me.

This Project is becoming better and better with all the new additions.
Are you sure this is a FPSC Project?

All the best of luck.

You see, thats why I guess there are so little comments here.

Your game looks and feels like a collage of different models from professional and semi professional artists. (which did great work). It looks like a completely different game with every update.

The actual gameplay you presented us so far looks like vanilla FPSC gameplay and really unengaging. Its a WIP so naturally its not done, but I do also always see that the memory cap hits its limits and I doubt that you can add that many events to a map which is already maxing it out (scripts, sounds and dynamic objects/enemies are hard on the cap...)

Personally, I would be interested in the game if you would hire 2 or 3 3D Artists instead of asking 400 for donations and develop a visually coherent and fun game.

This game is in development really long now, and I bet you can show us 2 or 3 minutes of gameplay.

Maybe it was because you where younger back then? A lot of newer titles are far more interesting to explore for me than back in the days. I guess thats matter of taste, nostalgia and opinion though.

@Wolf, will be story flow through all levels (with video cut-scenes) so I will uncover some creepy and metaphorical story to the player (level by level).

Thats not what I was asking for. Having a story presented to the player does not translate into gameplay.

You just presented us another short video of some shader extensive room that hits the memorycap without any gameplay. I think I can speak for everyone that we dont particulary care about nice probs and scenes here... the 3D Chat board is there for this. This right here is for games... where you do things in levels other than looking at them

I will prepare demo soon, currently we are also working on animated game menu and UI. With about 500 HQ characters, 50 decent levels and crooked story. I can promise it will be THE GAME

I like what you have done here. You have some very interesting ideas that we have sat and thought "now that is real cool", other concepts we (like Ross) had our jaw drop. Keep up the hard work and we wish you well.

**Edited for content**


There's no problem that can't be solved without applying a little scripting.

Mh, no! That wasn't what I wanted to say. I just thought I had a general point of view on the subject which is why I wrote "I think" rather than "I know". In retrospec, I chose my words poorly. That happens.

However, I was not trying to state what should and should not be, I was only asking to see some gameplay out of interest in the nature of this game and how Mr.Game and Team want to develop events and ingame mechanics within the little space left in FPSC's Memorycap. Mr.Game replied that he'll get a demo out soon. I'm looking forward to it as I am a bit skeptic about what the final product will be like.

You know that translates into 50 HQ characters per level? Ambitions are a great thing but I don't thing that will work in FPSC with you levels already maxing out the systemmemory. Heck! I remember having trouble with 5 different enemies in a map and barely got it to work.

Right now these WIP levels are running at 120 fps on my core 2 quad machine using vista home premium. Nvidia geforce 430gt and 4 gb of ram. 250,000 polys on the enviroments. Not under a video capture scenario and the level being flooded with water to the top of the map so I can fly around these for video purposes.

we are not doing a shoot em up zombie game where you are being attacked by hoards of enimey at the same time. We deal with a more puzzle type game where you are only confronted by 2 or 3 characters at a time. going thru 5 or 6 spots of these to complete a level. being that said, and with the new 120 version FPSC, we are able to have these nice environments and get away from the square rooms and hall ways. Encasing the map level in a false sky box also helps out a lot.

Also trying to judge how this map runs by the res meters and during a video capture of fraps is not really a good indication of how much memory cap has been used. these levels with everything in them are coming in at 1300 - 1400 gb memory cap when testing and build games. Everything in the environment is static so its not causing a load on the running game, Just the light map build.

The other eye candy is animated with only what the need and none of the extra FPSC biped animations are there also saving memory. We build and we test till it wont run then we optimize and delete unneeded stuff.

We get great models from artists all over the world who only want to show off what they have created. Even just getting these models and getting them into FPSC format is a major chore in itself and takes work and practice to complete.

I know everyone wants to see game play in video and pictures and those will come. Till then please be patient with our WIP.

But your comments are still welcomed.

Thanks

not 500:50=10 characters per level

Looking at the level designs for this, which are very good by the way, I can see where gameplay elements are going to be. Yes I am that good and I got a bunch of meaningless badges to prove it

If it were down to custom models alone making this work it would be a disaster, its not what you got, its what you do with it and kudo's to the designers who in my opinion are doing a good job making it their own.

Only one thing is beginning to get to me, no offense Mr Game but you drop the 500 models/artists 'team' into every sentence and its wearing a bit thin. Is this your game or theirs?
They didn't create the models exclusively for this game so it bears no relevance far as I can see, and in fact only compares in the same way as the guy who buy's all the model packs for their game and does a good job with it, they don't add bond1 to their 'team'.

I do really like what YOU guy's are doing but show your own talents, you got plenty of good designers who actually do work on this, give them the credit.

Oh...yeah... I deserve an extra badge with a dummy-hat for my excelling math skills.

@Pirate Myke: Thats actually a solid way to approach dealing with high-end stuff in FPSC. I hope you dont have to take out too much and best luck with it. Also thanks for the insight!

@ Wolf: Thank you and you are welcome. the past versions of the upgrade to FPSC (119 and 120) has lent a lot of extra room to do more things then could be done before. So hopefully things will get even better and we can do a lot more with the engine.

Also reading thru these threads has given numerous clues and ideas from members of the community on how to deal with stuff and optimize your Ideas to get things done.

you have hell of a CGI and some great models, but I have also to say that I stay sceptic until I see some gameplay. The few clips already shown weren`t as impressive as playing one of Wolfs old games.

Everything seems still a little bit confused.

Um, so now games have to be like Wolf's? ._.


Wolf has his own style, Insomnia has it's own. although I do agree, I want to see some actual gameplay, with weapons and all that jazz.

No!

Dont get me wrong on that - I have seen and / or played many FPSC games where the gameplay is great or at least obviously good. Eldora, Slendermans Shadow, Outbreak, Zombiefied, Into the Dark e.t.c.

The unique style here is something new and exciting, I give credit to that. But the little gameplay (actually the testing videos) haven´t caught up to that yet and I`d love to see gameplay footage of one of the 50 claimed levels before I jump into cheering "hurray". Or some demonstration how all the pieces here fit together.

LOL, that's downright creepy, you might want to adjust the player distance within values for each melee a little. Looks like he can hit you with that chicken from a fair distance away and the empty hand has same reach.
Its a bit hard to tell from the video and you may have done this, but using frame beyond coupled with player distance, you can have the melee cause no damage but the animation still play through if the player gets out of reach before the swing completes.

Nice work.

I don't trip over...I do random gravity checks.

Hello,

I made Installer for FPSC game (just some my game placeholder slide show, FPSC sample video as placeholder and 3 levels with Nomad levels as build.exe). I add also DirectX and Microsoft Visual C++ x86 redist).
I need help to test it on other PC machine, Windows systems, etc as it is working on:
1. Windows 8 Pro x64 with FPSC installed
2. Laptop Windows Vista x86 without FPSC
not working on
3. Windows 7 Enterprise x86 without FPSC

I tried other DirectX 9c, even SDK 2007, try to run as administrator, change permissions etc but this is not work on this Windows 7 x86 Enterprise, so please check pn your machines and gimme feedback.

cheers
Mr Game

Hi Mr Game

I've run a quick test and posted in the other thread:
http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=213078&b=21&p=0

Installer is working nicely and I must say this game looks amazing. The monster design is incredible and I'm looking forward to playing this when it comes out.
