Spring RTS Engine

KaiserJ: what mod are those models for? The "space marines" (they still don't have a proper name) also will be fantasy styled to some extend. Expect angels and priests too. Sweet :mrgreen: I was hoping you'd put an interesting spin on the old space-marine formula (Aliens 2 was a loooong ti...

d_b : thanks for the vote of confidence :-) Looks great but it's very ambitious. You should defiantly start with a getting a few units from 1 race ingame then slowly building up that race to near completion so that you've got something to play around with while you work on the other 3. Daemons could...

I reinstalled the whole thing from scratch and it seems to be working okay now. Also there's been an update, or rather the update has been uploaded as a .deb

I also managed to get autolos working, although not all mods seem happy to use it - oh well...

Thanks for the advice :lol: edit: sweet - you're all pointing to the same tutorial - it must be good :mrgreen: Here the final version of "Fugly Tank" - I'm going to texture it and put it in game to see if I can, then I'll try to make something fantasy-ish (I'm thinking: a demonic box full ...

I got told-off for having non-planar surfaces so I got rid of them :shock: http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/4418/screenshotct.png Now I have many more polygons and more polygons is bad - I think :| Maybe I'll remove some. Hopefully it'll all stay planar (fingers crossed) Any suggesting when it comes...

I kinda want to make a historical/fantasy mod for spring. I saw that myth video and thought, "its such a shame that there aren't really that many fantasy mods in spring." (The Cursed is pretty neat, but its not exactly classical fantasy; even it has some techno-mechanical stuff in it.) So...

Blender is like Vim. Cruel to learn but once you're there it's awesome. Hmm - well since I don't have that much experience with 3D modeling (I did some 3DsMax ages ago) it's probably a good idea to start with Wings - it certainly does seem a lot simpler than anything I used before - here's what I m...

Thanks for all the replies guys :-) Reckon CA's a little too big for me though - that might sound a bit hypocritical seeing as I just penned several thousand words worth of concept, but to be perfectly honest I don't think I'll achieve a tenth of that :? Still, good to have some framework. I don't k...

This post is really long but I've sectioned it and provided one-sentence summaries so you can skip the boring bits :wink: [list] In a Nushell [/list] "Help! I'm in a nutshell! How did I get into this bloody great big nutshell!?" "Doomed RTS" (working title) - so named because I'm...

Glad to see someone is working on this - I really am! I'm one of the freaks who loved TA and Kingdoms, despite the latter's flaws. I remember Azaremoth's Cursed race too (didn't realise it was the same guy working with Spring!) Let me know if I can help out somehow - I'm a total noob when it comes t...

Yeah hum... just found the manual

:mrgreen: Wow! This is a really cool game: Doom + TA = Dream come true (honestly, who never wanted to play as the daemons?) Couple of bugs I've picked up, I know the first one has been reported before but I'll reiterate: - building units while in summoning stance causes an instant crash (segmentatio...

This is a problem that Ubuntu has with many fullscreen applications: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1238305 The only way I know of solving it is to turn off Compiz (visual effects) in System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects You can also write a script that turns them off automat...

:shock: Wow! It's like a whole new world with the UI working properly :-) Trouble is that it turns itself back off again each time I start a new game, and the customs luas from Zwzsg and Brain Damage don't seem to be being detected :( I feel really stupid not thinking to enter a negative value for t...

Hi guys, I'm new here so please go easy on me :oops: Couple of questions that may or may not be insultingly easy to answer - see how many you can fire through in 5 minutes :wink: edit: yes, I have looked for answer to these questions before posting! How do I make the camera zoom in when I scroll the...
