New Screenshots are now in progress for Solar Dominion, now that Blitz
can now detect joystick throttles including USB there is now little
reason not to start on the programming, first comes Astro Warrior,
ported from 3D RAD, still I tried to contact Chroma about the base
throttle thing, I know you need a negative number for reverse, question
is how do you do this when the code looks like the numbers are negative
anyway, still hopefully I will get an answer to that soon, nearly all
the models for Solar Dominion are done, only Space and land Cargo
transport needs to be done and changing all the models to MDL2 format
for animation purposes(i.e. for the hovercraft Fans and Space/Aircraft
landing) need to find out however how to make neutral vehicles so either
player or A.I pilots can enter them and also so that both player &
a.i. pilots can control them.
Astro Warrior models are all
finished, I was going to put a tank level in it but I might do that in
the sequel, right now I just want to get it done, I need to work out how
to do diffrent levels and splash screens so I can do a planetary
mission as well as a space mission, if I can do that then I might still
do a couple of tank levels, and some way of getting in and out of
vehicles just to break the monotony of being in a spacecraft all the
time, .For Solar Dominion I wish to get the Pandromeda Software, Mojo
World Generator so I can actually have a virtual cyberplanet for the 3D
R.T.S. as supposed to just a map, as it would be interesting to be able
to go to actual worlds in cyberspace, problem is, as the worlds when
rendered so all the detail, the game might only be able to run properly
on Pentium 3 600MHz and above and I only have a P2 350, still I will
need to upgrade it to a P3 1.0 GHZ and I can still use Bryce 5 for less
powerful machines, I could do 2 versions of the game, one higher
version and one lower version.
Will also have to put up another
web page and get my web address changed so people can see the
screenshots, and I need to submit some up onto the Blitz board.
