Screenshots of what you're doing.

Humans have abstrusely ideas...

That looks very pretty! I'd like to see the idea used in a default map at some point.

Another quote of images

Wooaahh. That looks awesome. btw, I think if a tutorial map was ever done, I think that would be an excellent aesthetic to follow.

The screenshots by C.Brutail remind me of Darwinia (in a very positive way).

now I want to see neon flowers everywhere

Thanks to CuBe0wl and PYROGXPILOT for help with the model.

Some sort of orange sewer channel? Looks cool though.

Not orange, its only the lighting...

The texture is kinda placeholderish and shitish... Will soon make a better looking one.

Finally modeling in other software and exporting to netradiant. I had difficulties with UVW mapping but finally I figured that out. Morphed: Check this out!

It's not for visuals for now...

GJ Justin.

so xonotik fuckin awesomly amazing...

Finally! Justin, you´ve done a great job!

But which software are you using?

Creating some animated models lately. The low impact on performance seems to be worth the effort.

Oh. Man! I saw this! Great models. Is the performance impact realy low as you say? Let's say someone puts 10 of these in one spot - how that would change fps? Will you post animation somewhere on forums?

I´ll probably make some benchmarking report of animated models, static models and their (dis)advantages to BSP structure. So far I tested a model with 512 polygons animating over reflective water with other general structure (including static models and patch meshes) around it and I got around 100 frames per second at all settings maxed out. I´m using a nVidia GTX660 and an AMD Athlon II X3 455 at 3x3,3GHz. So my hardware is not the best but not the worst either.

Regarding animations: I´m not sure if a tutorial will follow soon but you can expect at least something...

Nice, i guess theres been some changed to the engine since i tried that last then. The problem with animated models is they need to be entity models (and thus its have no impact on the BSP structure whatsoever... nitpick ; ) to work, and every entity has a small performance penalty of its won. Thats usually no biggy, but with things like vegetation where 1000+ units can be called for, it can give you a noticeable impact at times. One thing taht does IIRC clientmodel's can be animated, so you can possibly use _lod models to "turn off" animations for far away objects.

One thing worth testing is using a vertex rather than bone based animation model format (such as .md3). dp does have some clever code to speed up that sort of animation, and as far as i can see vertex based animation's would be quite enough for this use.

Anyways, interesting stuff; looking forward to what will come of it.

hm?

Awesome. Looking forward to built in GPS in the android version.

PS. Where are the settings, btw? In Settings window?

Shiny! Great work Samual! This really simplifies the Profile´s menu.

Are the settings now moved to the right direction?

Yup ^_^ http://imgur.com/a/Jj8Xz
