Spring RTS Engine

Just an update for people who were getting nervous about my comments about bypassing UpSpring in the modelling workflow. I am still working on Upspring , in fact it's my top priority outside of work/life balance. It will still be a useful tool for a long time, whether it's actually needed or not. T...

that looks great! why 'orcs'? I like orcs :P Those things are supposed to have orc pilots in them. At some point I will draw fancy unit pics and make custom UI to handle them but first I need to make more other stuff. Damned ETA 2 years! All help I can get is appreciated as i'm working on Damned al...

I think the low quality of the map textures causes units to feel smaller. If it was possible to make maps more detailed per a unit of map size,when you would zoom in and see tons of small details the units would immidietly look bigger. Truth. Tested that and using good detail texture instead of jus...

I thought that you meant that E&E has ground decals on "corpses" or on isFeature unit but because thats not the case I'm still requesting this feature.

I must say that I have no idea... I took a look at E&E 0.46 and didn't find any walls from alien faction.

Here's 3 shadow bugs that has been bothering me with x1950 pro and 8800 gts. Here your looking at a straight pole with flag on it... Well for some reason when I move my camera around the shadows they will change shape and look deformed. Also look how the detail texture of map can be seen through sha...

Would be cool if useBuildingGroundDecal would work with corpses and with isFeature = true.

I bet that your unit doesn't fit out of my factory cause I made it really small on purpose. try changing this yardMap = [[ooooooo ooooooo oocccoo oocccoo oocccoo oocccoo oocccoo]], to yardMap = [[ooooooo ccccccc ccccccc ccccccc ccccccc ccccccc ccccccc]], after that it should at least fit out of the ...

Very cool indeed

Their faction name is Ork

I head little birds singing and they were saying someone somewhere has building script Luafied somewhere.
So bring your knowledge to everyone! please... Damned needs your examples too!

FLOZi we love your basic game making pack... but for beginners it would be nice if you included some very simple tank with Lua scripts and everything it needs to work.

We would appreciate allot!

If I understood correctly this is epic! No need to convert models to S3O means it's much easier to modify models later :)

I say remove it all and use platters. I wan't to see units the way they look their best.

Shame on you people, the poor lua animation API is still being ignored in favor of bos/cob Models have named pieces and points. Bos is a scripting language with commands for rotating and moving these pieces at varying speeds. A lua version was built by Tobi which is generally superior. Use lua inst...
