Diablo III

I think the witch doctor will fit better with this Model

Yes, and this is already included by now. As I said the demo is a bit outdated.
Thanks for your suggestion though.

times a different theme. I think I've found a bug.
...i have play themap with a friend...and his camera (player 2) have shaked very hard... so they can play.

If the camera is shaking a lot that's most likely when the performance is too low and the height positioning of the camera isn't adjusted often enough per second, so it'll go up and down and up and down...

I think I improved performance for the next demo/alpha map a bit. But I'm afraid for some too old computers this map will result in lag when a lot stuff is going on.


@ the projectile discussion
I tested this a lot and came to the conclusion that a triggered projectile system will have much advantages and I still doubt you could do for example a straight flying missile that only explodes and does damage when it really collides with a unit. And using splash damage isn't the real deal either. Though, to a certain degree you can do stuff properly that way.

I won't release my projectile functions as they're suited to my map and really do nothing special and use some physic calculation (for the arc-projectiles at least).
After all it's just a dummy unit projectile that's fired and checks for units around it every period :/ It's important to use a certain dummy unit that allows you to face certain angles for arced projectiles.

[Anachron]

I see. Good luck on this map.

Regarding that matter, I removed all weapon/shield models from the game as they have too many issues and unless in the distant future we got our own modeler and great hero models in this project they won't return.
Issues were mostly the size and sometimes particles and lighting. Also it's a pain in the ass to try out so many attachments and then search for fitting icons

 

[BlazeBird]

ok. then i hope you found a skinner and modeler for this...^^

 

[Spoontoobig]

Oh dude... That boss fight was awesome... :> How did u made that ?! :> Only thing that I can say :> ITS AWESOME!

 

[Boneknight]

Give me a request skin or model and i wil try to make something up as test for you to see if i am good enought

 

[Sheephunter]

Epic...

Hmm you don't have any models apart from weapons on your profile but fine. I'd like you to try recreating the cleave effect you can see in the attached Screenshot. I suggest you watch the beginning of the gameplay trailer as well though so you can see its motion.
The effect shall have only this one animation, so that I can simply do call DestroyEffect(...).

 

[Anachron]

NDMGG I am making a missle system. It can kinda do everything that xe can but also height calculations and such. If you are interested, post

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

Thanks for the offer Anachron but for now I'm confident with my stuff. As I said it's adapted to this particular map and thus does everything fine right now.
However I may have a look at it your system once you release it.

 

[Anachron]

It will offer a lot of things you might not have until yet

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

We'll see.
Also I wanna keep high performance and additional stuff that I don't necessarily need is rather a waste. However I take a look at it once your done, maybe it'll convince me ;d

 

[Anachron]

Here's a little preview of the events you can control:

    private interface EventHandler
        method onUnitHit            takes unit theUnit returns nothing
        method onUnitTouch          takes unit theUnit returns nothing
        method onTargetReach        takes nothing returns nothing
        method onFly                takes nothing returns nothing
        method onPause              takes nothing returns nothing
        method onLoop               takes nothing returns nothing
        method onCreate             takes nothing returns nothing
        method onDeath              takes nothing returns nothing
        method onCollide            takes thistype theCollider returns nothing
    endinterface

And thats not just even a bit of it.
And I am pretty sure it will be the fastest system with that safety out there.

 

[Boneknight]

so basicly i coud make an (particle emmiter) orb that you attach to weapon, it leaves trail and you remove it ? right?
or you want animated model that quickly appears and dissapears?

 

[Anachron]

Whatever you think. But this is getting offtopic.

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

Whatever you think. But this is getting offtopic.

It's rather you getting off topic. I do not want to discuss your system in this thread further more. I said I may try it out once released but so far...

@ BoneKnight
Yes I want an animated model. No orb or whatever to attach to a weapon.
Just like in the video.

In the beginning you see it quite often.

 

[Boneknight]

you will get it this weakend if not before

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

you will get it this weakend if not before

Sounds good
Take your time though!

 

[Boneknight]

kk but started on it a bit but i guess you know (school)
Edit: can you guys guess who is this handsome guy? (15 mins of work)

 

[syltman]

Dang that's pretty darn sweet, please keep it up!

 

[demonhunter50]

kk but started on it a bit but i guess you know (school)
Edit: can you guys guess who is this handsome guy? (15 mins of work)

thats Thousand Pouder

 

[Boneknight]

yep and that guess who he is was a joke

 

[Anachron]

I wanna play this oO

 

[syltman]

Will you be able to pull of the animations for this aswell?

 

[Boneknight]

yes it shoud be be textured animated and done this weakend , i do everything from scratch

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

Holy crap Bonenight, you surprise me.
I mean when I took a look at your public profile I thought you had pretty nice weapon attachments there, but I had no idea...

I'm so looking forward it, especially as I didn't expect to see another Thousand Pounder model in years^^

 

[Boneknight]

If you want to see what i can really do go to my name in this post and check links
post

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

Now I'm certainly amazed.
Regarding the new "information" it's kinda out of question if you're able to model properly^^
So unless you're no more interested I add your name to the team

 

[Boneknight]

add it i am still intrestead

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

Welcome to the team
With you aboard we can finally improve the map on another level hehe.

For now I'll keep the recruitment part in the original post as I suppose modeling takes a lot time and another modeler/texturer cannot hurt. Will see about this though.

 

[kRaZy-bLaZeR]

Epic

 

[Boneknight]

so guys here are some models made for the project (made them yesterday)

 

[BlazeBird]

they locks realy nice...^^
...and i hope you can finish the phounder before the next release...^^

 

[Boneknight]

if everything goes as planned it will be done tommorow (TP)

 

[Catch_ya]

Boneknight. I must say you are a really good modeler. Your models here are amazing and with such a good matching skin. Very useful. +reputation
by the way do you take requests?

 

[Boneknight]

i take requests if i like them

 

[Catch_ya]

i take requests if i like them

Well I might come with some later I will pm you if i get an idea for a model okay ?

PS: sorry for going off-topic

 

[redmarine]

I'm thinking perhaps it would be a good idea to let CloudWolf help you with the terrain. It's clear that this project will be better than D3W.

 

[Catch_ya]

I'm thinking perhaps it would be a good idea to let CloudWolf help you with the terrain. It's clear that this project will be better than ours.

I like both of the projects. They are unique in both of their ways. This project is unique because of the projectile system, onKill system and boss fights. Yours are unique because of the terrain, inventory system, good skins, and alot other things aswell. (long time since i played).
But both of these maps got a Diablo feeling.

I mean, it would be great if CloudWolf could help them make the terrain more appealing and add a little more diabloish atmosphere into it.

I'm not sure who is currently working on the terrain though but he could need some help judging from the screenies.

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

I agree with Catch_ya.

First of all Syltman is doing a nice job and is improving quite well. Terrain changed a lot in the meantime. Plus he's managing a lot other stuff as well.

CloudWolf sure has some amazing terrain but he got his own projects running and as Catch_ya said, our maps have a different style and you can enjoy both.
Rather like the opportunity of alternative versions to play.

 

[Boneknight]

also here is a bit work on TP please note that helmet is not textured

 

[RaiN.]

You should make his tatoos as seen in the trailer. Right now they are f ugly. Looks good overall tho.

 

[Boneknight]

well my friend its ingame so i simply cant do everything with it

edit: quick update

 

[Deolrin]

Oh, so it's just the Ogre model. Anyways, you need a 2D artist.

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

It's the ingame texture of the Ogre model but apart from that the model is made from scratch. And it'll become white
Though I think he could be in fact fatter and his legs should perhaps be shortened a bit.

 

[Boneknight]

well Debode its not just ogre i made scratch one but made a mistake and acidently deleted it and i didnt want to start again so i modified ogre and once aain its not just ogre also i can make texturebut its for sake of space i will try to geoset animate color

I'm still trying to get a better atmosphere to the map, it's hard without using diffrent lights (they display poorly), also the time of day is wrong etc.

 

[Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo]

Busy team is busy ^_^

I think there will be great progress within the next weeks!
