I find shorter games are useful for online gameplay because it means more people have time to play online. Another difficulty with games with larger assaults is that this causes problems for people with slow computers which cannot handle large numbers of units. But, I also think that long epic games with larger assults are far more fun. This leaves me very torn over whether the gameplay should be changed or not.
Looks very goodThanks, and yes it's a lot simpler for a much more natural and sharp looking outcome!. Thats more fun with this new system isn't it ?
Some of the art is very old(the walls), I started doing this a couple years ago and have just picked it up again a few months ago.
I would be very interested in doing so Archmage
I think this is related to the new techtree translation. In the moment you selected the techtree its directory is scanned for translations. Its hard to say why this takes long for you :-( . Maybe slow harddisk or more lickely an antivirus programming checking too much.Why does all this scanning cause the game to freeze for a few seconds. Can't it scan without freezing it?
Looks awesome from that shot.
1. Imagine the arrow is automatically targeting the next living enemy in range:
In this moment the range units get more and more powerful, because they kill more effectivly than before. so people will try to get even more range units than now.
And the animations will look very strange: imagine an archer targetting a unit in front of him. If this unit suddenly dies he will shoot the next unit in range, which is maybe directly behind him. In this case the anymation will for example look like he shoots to the west, but in fact he shoots to the east. This will look very strange
So far only the castle, the barracks, the worker and the soldier is complete(ish). but next week I'll need to gather all my models together since I'm very disorganised.I meant 'added' not re-modeled.
Yep, I'm still working on it, but I've just been on holidays. Also I like like the textures you've made for tech Archmage! gjWell have you added any units? And thank you.
Although it may make more sense to deduct the EP after the attack hits anyways.
true, but I want to put this into the MG svn! So this is not meant as a mod.
What new terrain texturing system is this? I'd like to use the latest and greatest tech.
As I said, look at birch forest and desert4 tilesets in the beta. Look at their xml files you will understand.
( here it was introduced: https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=8907.0)
polycount is completly ok!
But ... the ground textures look very bad compared to the rest of the tileset. Please think about making a new version ( I suggest a more yellow/dry ground). And have a close look at the new tilesets desert4 and birchforest whihch use a new terrain texturing system which is much more simple to use and gives great results!
Another thing you might look at is the animation and how I made it in birchforest. There are only 2 frame animations and a new feature:Code: [Select]<model path="models/birke4_branch.g3d" anim-speed="21" smoothTwoFrameAnim="true"/>
Textures are the only area that is being increased, and the ground textures have actually been reduced(now 128*128) from what they were in the 1.0 release(256*256). The polycount of the plant model I just posted is a mere 60 triangles.
I have no idea whether that's many polys for a texture (I guess comparing to the old one would help), but surely decreasing the texture size is going to help those with low spec hardware (like myself) enjoy your work, too. Good luck progressing with 2.0.
The barrel texture was a bit bright I agree, but you can change that in 5 seconds. My point for putting it there is the fact that it is taken from a large source image and is truely 512 resolution.
