Dash's World: Moving to releases/massive update

[Scarbo the Black Sheep]

OK, let's be grateful that we're not the ZDoom people who have slopes but no FOFs.

 

[Kalaron]

GZDoom has slopes and FOFs

 

[Vash]

I believe you're thinking 3D Floors, or whatever they're called, and those are not FOFs, AFAIK.

This is where I got my info from.

Realistic Texture set + Dynamic Lighting + New OpenGL renderer

More stuff soon...

First pic is epic win. Can't wait for a demo to come out.

Yes, the pictures LOOK cool, but fancy textures and lighting effects don't make up for a bad level.

Ok, so what are you implying, that I'm spending too much time on everything else but the levels, which you haven't even played yet?
Yes it LOOKS cool, but I'm actually trying to take my time on the levels as well, I have no idea why you seem to assume that the actual levels in the mod are automatically going to be awful.

 

[Ice]

I don't think so. I think he's saying that you may be making all these cool effects, but that it wont make up for if your level designing skills suck...

 

[Kalaron]

I know that all my levels need to be well designed, the project would fail if I didn't take my time to create uncramped levels with good sector layout and item placement.

 

[Ice]

Good, that's rather a relief. One can't be completely sure however...

 

[BlueZero4]

Doom textures, a bit of dynamic lighting, and generic OpenGL.

DashFox, you should be better than this.

 

[Kalaron]

Umm..Doom textures? There's no DooM textures in here...

DashFox, you should be better than this.

What do you mean by that?

he means you can do more better levels than just placing thing effects and open gl stuff etc....

 

[Kalaron]

Huh? I don't understand....

Work more on your level design's

 

[Kalaron]

When I said I didn't understand, I meant please use proper English....

 

[Mikesword221]

So are you going to release a beta or wait for the full thing to be done?

 

[Kalaron]

I'm going to completely finish a few levels first, then I'll release an exe/app with those levels and other features of the mod in editing. I get critiqued on those levels, fix em up, make more levels, and put the mod in the releases section of the forum. I'll take my time to finish up all the other levels and material and keep on releasing new versions in releases. Although, the levels are going to take some time, because I really want to make better-than-decent quality levels.

Edit: So yeah, I'm going to release a beta here first
