Spring RTS Engine

I think its better to create your own characters if you're going to do an 'original' game instead of using existing ones created by other people, even though they're IP-neutral. Games, books, movies etc come up with new characters all the time, and many have become icons despite nobody having seen t...

Ah, ok, nevermind that then. :p
Really nice map btw, has a definite WW2 feel there.

Looks nice, but this guy seems to have muzzle flash fx issues?

You select the parts and detach them from the combined mesh, reset their origins and that's it.

Btw nice retexture Argh.

1024² is much too big for a relatively simple model like that. 256² would be more than sufficient. I've modelled and unwrapped in Blender successfully before, and while the interface in general is a complete b*tch, the UV unwrapping tools are decent. You should also merge all your model's part...

I haven't played GW since the first game (sans expansions), but I didn't have much problem getting good teammates. Sure there were the usual dickfaces who deliberately aggro shittons of creeps and get everyone killed sometimes and so forth, but I remember many players who were great teammates, and m...

Kloot, here's a roughly done model with normal mapping, 2116 tri model, normal map generated from 32k hi-poly. Didn't separate the parts cause I figured its only for testing and the polycount's too high anyway. If you want it lemme know where to send it. The normal mapped details aren't very deep, b...

I didn't see any UV unwrapping support in CS4 when I tried it out, and word is that it's still quite unstable, performance-wise and needs a considerably more powerful rig to run than CS3. But being able to paint directly onto a model can be quite handy especially for locating and painting across sea...

- body proportions are closer to 'normal' than the original, but it still looks off, might wanna check it with references. - very noticeable seam down the middle of the face, you'd want to check the topology to make it look more natural - face tex itself lacks some tonal contrast in areas that defin...

You eventually meet up with a group of lost people who are rummaging the country side looking for food and shelter.

What if I want to kill all of them and take their phat lewt?

Awesome music from an awesome game, classic!

Right Here.

Looks interesting, anything procedurally generated that looks that good is pretty impressive work. I hope their procedurally generated stuff doesn't suffer the utter randomised-arbitrary-generic syndrome faced by games like Hellgate London and Diablo 2. I like games with weapons and other elements t...

That is very sad, closed source software ftl. Spring wouldnt even exist with that mentality. Not everyone shares your opinion. Perhaps not, but the engine you're using is an open source project founded on those ideals. Spring is NOT founded on GPL ideals. Never has, never was, never when. And since...

I'm wondering if I can make a plane with alpha texture so I can bake the ground shadow on it. It'll look 2x better ingame without any perf loss. Yes you can, just make absolutely sure your alpha blends smoothly at the edges and you have assigned enough tex space for it because low-res alphas tend t...

How will you animate something that's been pieced together like this, specifically? Sounds like alot of complex code work would be needed to generate procedurally, and the 'unit editor' moreso.

Core Commander humping tyranid.

Testing (dicking around) with displacement:



I call it the "Giant MegaHurtz Ball".

Hope Kyle can make a recovery, good luck.
