Anything that's changing, based on the feedback?

Anything that's changing, based on the feedback?

• Ken-E suggested a recoil
• Atticus complained about the spread of the projectile that hits enemies even its far from the crosshair
• Hexcellion found some bugs
  And

I'm still waiting for the other testers to response.

 

[UndeadImmortal]

Hmmmmm, when I try to view with the scope, I only see was a black screen don't know why.

Strange, the others got the system working on their computers. I'll run a test for myself to see if I can get that strange bug.

 

[Ken-E]

You should've taken a sceenshot of it so the author himself could really fix and gets a better look at the said bug.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

For the record, I had no problems with the scope either.

I'm sure everything should be working fine since it work when you test it a few days before the other testers.

 

[UndeadImmortal]

Nevermind about the scope, I just scope up into the sky so I can see nothing. Btw, I found a strange thing, I can't kill anyone... Here's the picture of it: The Picture

 

[sonofjay]

You wasn't supposed to kill those rifleman, you can't damage them since they are not coded on the system.

 

[zlowly]

come here to give +rep to sonofjay because a good map his created with a epic system xD

Edit~~~
the scope system was great at all...
maybe if i can suggest you sonofjay to make the scope be a just a little more larger than that because i got a little problem when i want to shot the enemies other than that it's great...

 

[sonofjay]

If I make it a little bit bigger, then it will be to easy for anyone to play the game, since most of the terrain parts are a bit narrow.

Just asking:
1. Physics?
2. Did you use the Modern Lighting's and Doodad Pack? A must for this.

Well here comes a volley of suggestions:
Halo Masterchief model SHOULD be replaced. Many/Most people know its from Halo. I dont like how the weapon shop is made. If not replaced, re skinned to look like a new character.

As for the Lab, if you are placing weapons, place more uber weapons. If not, replace those with human bodies. Also, replace the tiles below the light flashing down. If not replacing the tile, you must create some sort of block. Tint it more green or blue green.
The second screenshot of the lab is bad. Narrow and stuff. Block that Raise/Lower cliff with walls.

Some part of the city looks bad. Especially its tiles. Place some floor doodads/tile. Texture of one doodad looks reallllllllllllllllllllllllllly stretched. House terrain looks bland. Add more doodads, say a TV. You should think like an Interior Designer here. Design that house better.

Other than that, you need more systems and explain the storyline a little broader.
Good systems to ad would be: First person cam (this can be easily done by creating a model only showing the hands/body of the unit). Play some Restricted Complex for more ideas.

Add some fog to sizzle it up with some lightings and sky too.

Thanks for taking a look for it, but most of the images are outdated, but for the ghost model this is what we are working on.

Ghost

And yeah if someone will apply to be my coder, he will apply the already build physic system.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

If you are using a skin like that, you would need better models/skins for the models.
Question though, rip or internet download?

If not, I salute your modeler.

 

[sonofjay]

I know, and Eryfkrad already gathered models that will fit.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

When did I do THAT?!

 

[sonofjay]

When did I do THAT?!

LoL, you did that a long time ago on xat chat, linking me to lots of models that you suggested to be used on Project Ghost.

Don't try to make yourself innocent krady.

 

[gorillabull]

WOW DUDE THIS IS ************* AMAZING the terrain gives you that Half life feeling of a post apocalyptic event this is just wow where do you find these models absolutely amazing I AM A FAN!!!!!!1111111

I'm glad that you like it, but I need to inform you that almost all of the system are being reworked for better performances that means taking more time to finish.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

I wanna see Deflection Angles here though.
Well I also think you could add a Fog System, Weapon Switch like in CS or most shooting games. Where you would have a One Handed Weapon, Two Handed, Throwing Weapon and a Melee Weapon.

Also, add a scope system for snipers
All you need to do is use images/filters.

Does Fog system include/imply "flashbang" grenades?
If, not, I guess it could be considered, with certain effects on enemy behaviour.

I believe the Ghost model would be equipped to handle all forms of non-magic combat, if all goes well.

 

[sonofjay]

We already have scope system, and I'll try those other suggestions

And Krad is right, I already have a system for players to equip different items, but can't equip the same weapon type

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

By Weapon switch I mean carrying a One Handed, Two Handed, Melee, Throwing Weapon and a Body Armor. You could also input Primary and Secondary Ammo and Healthpacks as items.

Fog System is just fog. Flashbang could use filters.
Also, if you need help, just drop by and tell me.

Sure, you already help me a lot on my other project, so I know you can also help here.

holy fkin shit yooooooooo these models are perfect and the map work looks awesome dude like the terrain and shit duuude awesome work, are u tryna launch like a beta version? so we can have a little look before its final launch?

awesome dude! keep up with the good work

Sorry to inform you dude but the beta is still far for public and only the testers that I recruited are the one testing all the system, currently I'm reworking all the systems and our latest achievement is the shooting system.

Don't worry I'll keep this thread updated for the latest news about Project Ghost

 

[neo_sluf]

I will now test the shooting system.Maybe i can't post my review early cause i dont know when i can post it.But i will make a good review on it

 

[sonofjay]

Take your time, I'm also slowing down a bit on the progress. I have many things to do. But I hope I can finish the whole terrain of Chapter 1 and 2 this month or the first week of june.

 

[Codric]

Looks promissing.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

On a side note, you might wanna explain/consider how the system works with melee weapons, and how the size of the melee weapon affects striking range.

 

[sonofjay]

NEWS:

Progress will slow down due to this reason:

Me and my friend decided to remake my very old map, we've been discussing this for days now and we agreed that we will remake it from scratch. This project have a development thread here, but its abandoned due to many reasons at that time:

• I have little knowledge of the editor that time.
• Map got full of bugs and leaks.
• Due to those reasons we lose motivation on it.

But now that I learned a lot we now decided to take another shot on it.

But don't worry, I still have time for this one, I don't want all my work here to be wasted, the progress will just slow down.

Anyway.

On-Topic:

@Krad

Can you make this clear?

and how the size of the melee weapon affects striking range.

You mean the size of the weapon as a range? hmmm that all come to math , but for the damage of melee weapons, I'll based it on heroes str x hero lvl.

Good news:
I'll change my crappy movement and camera system with a new one again, now it will use vjass for a better performance.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

What I mean is, obviously, a knife would have lesser striking distance, compared to, say, an axe or crowbar.

That sort of thing could be factored in, if possible.

 

[sonofjay]

Ohhh, thats easy if you see the combat system(sword) other project, that will be implemented here. Just need a dummy spell(fan of knives) to do the range damage of the knife, axe and other melee weapons.

SHOOTING SYSTEM REVIEW......
Well for me you just add walking animation to the model because its just like flying. Well you can search for some good icons. The w,a,s,d is good but it makes me irratete to press the A more than 5x JUST TO CORRECTLY face the enemy.The bullets is good but its better if it is a real looklike bullets model.Well i can suggest add walk ani to model,make bullet more realistic, just add a little speed on facing an angle or you can just don't (i think its better speed, its upon yours) ALSO ADD COMMANDS LIKE JUMP, CRAWL, ESTIMATE (GIVING THE NUMBER OF PERCENT OF CHANCE TO MAKE BULLET HIT) ALSO GIVE A MESSAGE IN WHAT YOU ARE TARGETING (TARGETING:HEAD/FOOT/CHEST/NONE) like that.

 

[sonofjay]

Testers only need to test the shooting system itself, the other things like models, other systems are just a add-on for the test map...

 

[xorkatoss]

heyy, i recently found out this map and it looks pretty good!! count me in as a tester when beta is out

suggestions:
down arrow key = move backward at 50% of original movement speed
down arrow key twice = 180 turn

IMO that will be a bit better

 

[sonofjay]

We have lots of testers for now, anyway why everyone wants to be a tester? I really need a coder here(jass or vjass) since I really want to experiment with the physic engine.

 

[RandomPogi]

Definitely be watching this. Haha, I'd know that UI a mile away. SC2 terran?
EDIT: Wish I could help, but I'm too busy with my own mods. -__- But if you need some extra help, just tell me. (Although I'm not really in to triggers) ^~^

 

[UndeadImmortal]

Make an anti-cheat system to avoid players to cheat in single player

 

[UndeadImmortal]

Bump!

 

[nafre]

It looks like this is not going to be released soon...... By the look of the Progress So Far.

 

[sonofjay]

Sorry but all of my projects are pause for me to study for my exams.

 

[DeathsAbyss]

Hey i can do triggers... just... regular... triggers... but i know how to do changing weapons that's easy so if u want me to do that...

 

[sniper23]

Project is abondoned .

 

[Almia]

And its dead again

 

[Volid]

That kind of stuff is just made for me. Can`t wait till it will be done in 100%
