No! It looks awesome!

I guess yes by looking at the FPS.

definitely! you use many many framekiller.
- big patch terrain
- reflecting glass (is it on a patch? seems that could be another fps killer)
- water/reflecting water (dunno which is correct ,but with this level of detail it kills fps)
- dense grass (kills also fps, if there is much of it)
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - theShadow - 04-24-2011
it looks cool though :p
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - MirceaKitsune - 04-24-2011
I believe big patch terrain is an ok thing (or should be anyways). But too many effects will certainly kill the FPS. I recommend using env-maps for the glass (see how I did them on windows in Red Planet).

The best way is to use SavageX terrain generator or a dotProduct2 terrain
http://www.simonoc.com/pages/articles/terrain1_1.htm description how to do it.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Minkovsky - 04-25-2011
True, I did a bit of an overkill making the glass actual glass (which means, reflecting grass AND water), but patch terrains isn't something of an issue. And, yes, grass is on a patch. I may try to do this by a terrain generator and then re-do the textures, but then I'd have to find a way of getting the checkpoint models out of the ground (so I don't get the entity-in-brush crap). Anyway, I'll be getting rid of the realtime glass, which seems to be the biggest FPS hog.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - theShadow - 04-26-2011
you could make it more like a cloth awning.

crylink model. I am looking for ideas for it.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - theShadow - 05-03-2011
EDIT: fixed handle
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - nowego4 - 05-03-2011
@theShadow: give the crylink a stock like every other weapon (well, laser needs new model too). I think that's what make it look out of place with other weapons.
What is the one with the fixed handle? I like it, especially the first-person view.

Not every weapon needs a stock in my opinion. The laser and crylink especially would seem weird with one.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - theShadow - 05-03-2011
thats the machine gun
you mean a rear stock? (the crylink has a forestock)
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Sepelio - 05-03-2011
Depends. Would energy weapons have much recoil? Unlikely. If they don't have much recoil theres less need for a stock I should think...
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - nowego4 - 05-04-2011
Yes, I meant rear stock. What your model has is generally called a fore-grip, or just grip. The problem with not having a stock is it looks smaller and less powerful (which is fine for the laser I suppose) when the Crylink is really a decently powerful weapon.
The Crylink is a plasma weapon, it just runs off energy ammo (don't get me started...), also HLAC, Electro and most likely the 'arc cannon' models have stocks.
I support both of your MG models theShadow
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Lee_Stricklin - 05-04-2011
Not a weapons freak, but I always thought a stock was put in place so that you can mount a weapon to shoulder for a more accurate shot typically on longer range weapons. I also notice that a lot of shotguns in real life tend to not have them, probably because of the kickback and the fact that they're not precise weapons which are intended for close range.

w00t!! Michael Jackson effect???!!!
Fantastic design.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Halogene - 05-05-2011
that would be soo cool if the plates would lit up and fade slowly once touched by a player.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - CuBe0wL - 05-05-2011
I don't know what do you mean under "slowly", but the tiles only lit up when you're standing on them, and only fade away after a second or so you've stepped off.

Brilliant concept. That would make one-on-one very interesting, methinks.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Justin - 05-05-2011
To easy to follow the enemy fc! But it might be usefull in new mode.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Sir Emeth Mimetes - 05-05-2011
Move faster, double track, trick him. More brain work.
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - nowego4 - 05-05-2011
Good to see you actually implement this, C. Brutial. What is it? DM? CTF? Assault?
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - CuBe0wL - 05-05-2011
It'll be a small 1on1 DM map, not CTF. Also, I'm a bit afraid of this map, because the lighting up floors might generate huge traffic and also put a lot of stress on servers, so it might never be used as a real map, only a concept. Soon I'll have a playable alpha, and we'll see.
