How much faster?

Don't know, just a theory.

(the number of materials in your object(s) mutimaterial) times faster

swords in a FPS is just dumb.

primary and secondary fire can be used for melee attacks for a total of 3 kinds of melee attack, plus animation varients can be made for melee. not sure about fire-1&2 varients being possible, but thats plenty good enough imo

I tried a negative falling damage, and it had no effect

care to explain how? I'm guessing your opposed to knives in fps's too because a knife is just the wimpy version of a sword.

Yeah, the knife in COD definately fails epically when the enemy is right next to you, and you don't have any close range weapons. [/sarcasm]
E: typo :(

Speaking of knives and cod, i hope the terrorists get butcher knives :)
/ epic off topic

A knife should have a high rate of fire [/sadistic]

They worked for the zelda map.

also, 10x faster? wow. only 18 minutes then.

it should. Please let me know how it goes, since yours is the ideal proofing situation

Unfortunately, it didn't go well. took the same amount of time as yesterday, i'm afraid. I did put those -- exactly where it showed. Anyway, discovered a new error. so, final will be on saturday, i suppose. IF i get no errors next time.

I should have known - that loop is a small part of the whole thing
But I found another way! It's a little complicated to set up, but it works - it exports noticeably faster. I added a "stream compressed" option, which simply replaces new-line characters with "?". After saving with GrabListener, a text search/replace program needs be run, which converts "?" back into newline chars, and then it's ready for tool. Running GrabListener and the search/replace can be done in the same batch file. Heck, the tool structure command can be put in the batch file too, allowing all 3 tasks to be accomplished in a doubleclick of the batch file.
If you dare to try it out, here's the link: http://files.filefront.com/13759157
I hope this helps - I really don't mean to be hijacking your thread, it's just that 3 hours to export, possibly dozens of times, just ain't right

where do i get such a program? You kinda lost me when you said that.

Oh dang, I meant to include that. Well, it's here:
http://www.resoo.org/docs/dos/free_software/txtutil1.htm#gsar
You only need the .exe. It also goes where the jms is

Tryed the script. No success. Told me to turn everything to mesh (which it already was), then crashed.

Ugh. Sorry, didn't mean to waste your time. Thanks for trying it. If you get a chance, could you pm me a link to your .gmax scene, so I can figure out why? Let the record show, I do not leak maps. Furthermore, if you want to move on to modelling the other stuff, I can fix those errors for you

[edit] I don't see any part of the script that tells you to convert stuff to editable mesh - was the message "There was no geometry to export."?

Ok. The basic play Beta is complete!


The body of a Spartan - full of flaming arrows.


The Staff of Thunder in action.


The tunnel leading to the ghost (spider).


The temple again.

If you have me on xfire, contact me and i'll give you the link, or PM me. I'm not starting a server, mine lag: i'll get someone else to.

Oh, nice. What does the torch do? Besides lighting the place?

Nothing. It can turn on and off, but thats really all its needed for. Without it, you'd have a hard time seeing (without turning gamma brightness up). If you want to test, get on xfire!

this map looks epic!

Instead of having to use the torch everywhere, you should add torch scenery's in the caves to light up the place.

Can I beta?

thats what happens as well. Yes elefant you can beta, xfire me or i'll PM you too.
E: lol at my dragon attempt



second attempt went better
