Necros, how about that Kell-textured thing with the doom-style fire for Arcane?
you mean the spiky thing with the knave textures?
it died from a wpoly overdose of 13000.

We mourn its passing :( 

We mourn its passing :(

and hope no one was squashed when it's bulberous mass fell, eyes glazed. 

If they were squashed, with a successful LUCK roll their companions find enough to bury.

necros: did you get my latest mails? with all the attachments? I'm beginning to wonder if you're still having problems your mail or something. 

i got the five mails in a row. :D

the thing is, i've tried mailing you a few times now, (even a recently as an hour or so ago) and yet the mail keeps bouncing back, telling me hotmail.com can't be found. 

is your account overflowed?
pq webspace was being wierd before, so i tried sending 1.4mb as an attachment. that one did go through, but hotmail rejected it because it was over a size.
i later managed to upload the files to my webspace but when i tried again, that's when it started bouncing back.
*confused* 

My inbox is at 49%, that shouldn't be a problem.
I just sent a testmail. 

don't know why it wasn't before... O_o 

I lowered the level of junk mail filtering; Hotmail seemed to regard your mail as junk. Which says something for the discerning taste of MSN :/ 

I know some of you have the alpha and got it working, and I'm also sure a couple of you probably have the full game by now (it's apparently out on the DEViANCE channels already), and since you're all a lot more willing and able to pirate things than I am, I have a question.

This is fairly central to my first doom3 project, and depending on the answer I might have to change my plans considerably. Is the level-changing linear, like quake where it's just one after another and no going back? Or is it hub-style, like quake2, where you can move back and forth within a unit?

I really really hope it's the second one, because non-linearity is the bee's knees. I'd bet doom3 can't handle a map the size of what I'd need from it in order to make the whole thing one map.

Also, hi everyone. 

There's no heart icon. :( I guess I'll just use the moon as tribute. 

'since you're all a lot more willing and able to pirate things than I am, I have a question.'

I can't speak for others, but I regard stilling from Id a mortal sin. Of course, when I worked for a major banking industry interest, I did not feel that way at all.

I am curious whether Doom3 uses a hub system as well. However, I suspect that due to the scripting language that is implemented (meaning you script events in an object oriented language internally within the maps) and the global variable usuage of that scripting language, it would be easy to implement hub content.

Here is a good link to this subject.

Also, these guys talk about adding 500,000 poly objects into the maps as if it was nothing, so you may very well be able to put it all on one map.

Cheers 

That scripting does look powerful, but it all revolves around doing things with entities and so forth within a level. If scripts or variables within them don't persist across a level change, then it would be patently impossible. 

how's it going?

You finished your art degree yet? What are you up to these days?

I'm tired. Working late AGAIN :(

/me goes home 

Working on Coriolis forever eh? 

Dune 3 that is. 

here's an old screenshot

http://w1.865.telia.com/~u86518019/cf.jpg 

Got Doom 1, Doom 2, Final Doom, Rise of The Triad, Hexen, Heretic, Wolfenstein 3D installed. 

I thought there was no one here worth your time. 

than: Almost done. Few more semesters before I have to reconfigure my life again.

blitz: that was IRC

Everyone Else: It's not Coriolis. That design was geared around Q3, and wouldn't translate at all to D3.

I guess I'll have to wait until August to find out if I have to retool the idea. That's kind of a bitch. 

Played DOom 2 in JDoom.. nice. I think I need to get the 3d weaps/monsters seperate, I have to look into it. Anywho, here is a problem with DOS games on WinXP home: sound latency. I do have integrated sound, but all Win games perform fine... 

DooM 3 is not yet warezed, the DEViANCE .nfo is a fake.

Give it a few days yet. 

PS. Hey Lun, nice to see you're still alive :) 

Oh, and if there isn't a way I'm going to (messily :) code one since there is absolutely no way I can produce the gameplay/story I want without being able to save variables across levels.

Although that'd require you to effectively have your level(s) as a seperate mod.
