That's glorious!

That's fantastic. It actually reminds me a lot of a Descent 3 multiplayer level called "Batteries Included," which had you basically flying around Outrage's offices.

Good memories of playing UT2004 Invasion RPG in all of those kitchen and bedroom levels.

Fixed.

I thought of the exact same thing too. Batteries Not Included was one of the wackiest MP levels ever made for Descent 3.

How did you set up the room for the background?

6 shots of the room and a skybox at guess

GTF Heimdall recon fighter, preferred fighter of Special Operations Command in Conflict 2395. I'm not sure how to make its primary gimmick work though (it's supposed to be only targetable within a distance of 1000 meters normally, but fully targetable while it is firing or using afterburners).

Can be done with some fancy sexps.

It would be much easier if there was a
$Max detection range: XXX
$Max detection with burners: YYY
in the ships.tbl.

Stuff I've been working on:












(Explosions look wonderful with soft particles and bloom)










And yeah, I'll probably make a version with an invisible beam, and pass it off as a IR/UV laser or something.  If looks could kill..

[Black Wolf]

Wow. I really like the glossy env mapping on the TRON ship, but maybe the biological stuff could be a little more matte? Some very interesting looking stuff going on there though.

[BlasterNT]

Yeah.  The env mapping is all non-final on the biological stuff at this point.  There's a disparity between what the in-program renders show, and the game engine result, which I'll figure out at some point. 

On a side note, any ideas about how to fake a blobbish viscous translucent liquid effect without going into volumetrics? 

[Black Wolf]

Well, transparency is better now than it used to be, i.e. it actually more or less works now. So you might get somewhere with some kind of semi transparent, animated diffuse map. But transparency and shine mapping don't really play well together, in my experience - you always seem to see the edges. So that might be a problem, or it might not, depending on how you want to apply it.

[BlasterNT]

Hmm, yeah.  Ahh, animated diffuse maps sound frightening to create (and to RAM)

[yuezhi]

thats some of the most original ship designs i've seen in a really long time.

[mjn.mixael]

Transparency and shine should work find together if you use -trans.

It would be much easier if there was a
$Max detection range: XXX
$Max detection with burners: YYY
in the ships.tbl.

Sounds like a waste of coder time to me.

Just remember to turn off the 1-pixel stars.

Blue Planet took a level in sexiness.
