Dash's World: Moving to releases/massive update

[BlueZero4]

Wait, what? Custom music? Say no, please. :<

 

[Kalaron]

No custom music? It has no lyrics at all.....

 

[BlueZero4]

It has more to do with file size than whether the music fits or not.

 

[Com]

I doubt custom music would be a problem if he changed the music files to the .ogg format.

 

[Kalaron]

All music's in ogg format kthxbye.

Edit: Have a nice day.

Dash, what I meant was that your webpage was bland and disorganized. It has nothing to do with what browser I'm using (IE 7). Also, if your music doesn't have looppoints, you fail at .ogg format.

 

[Kalaron]

Dash, what I meant was that your webpage was bland and disorganized.

It's not a real webpage, just a little html document on some else's server, when I add pictures, links and icons to it, it won't be so bland.

Here are some absolutely gorgeous, PrettySrb2 OpenGL, full resolution screenshots, enjoy:

Cool. When will the beta be ready?

 

[Kalaron]

Depends, I start school in a couple of weeks so, if I don't get a beta out by then, it will be a few weeks. Once I start school I can only use the computer on weekends and holidays, so either in two weeks or a month, depending on how fast I can work, but don't worry, it'll be worth the wait.

Edit: Did I forget to mention that cutscenes are going to be animated
with custom sprites?: http://attachments.wetpaintserv.us/e2KM3vVMUARoUfmiMXo4WQ==3647

· 3D models and custom lighting in OpenGL.

....Are you serious?

 

[BlueZero4]

Dashfox, I can make several sectors, make it look fancy, throw in a few control sectors, and printscreen it. No difference between the sectors, nothing. That won't work for "progress."

Also, uh, cutscenes?

Yes.

Hmm... The only reason I posted that is because you said:

I hate to say this, but do we get to see a download link? While we can all praise you for graphics, I'd rather see what you're doing with level layout.

Anyway, I'll just remove that picture and pretend that I never posted that....

Also, uh, cutscenes?

Yes, fully animated intro and credits with some cutscenes in between secret levels.

 

[Sprout]

When will you release a beta?

[light dasher]

3d models as in, a character as well, or objects in game?

 

[Kalaron]

For decoration, the final boss will be 3D as well.

 

[Kalaron]

Good news! Mostly everything is finished! Except for the levels.....
At this rate, I don't think I'll finish in a long time but then again, I guess Rome wasn't built in a three weeks.

My posts keep on getting deleted for some reason, so I apologize in advance if I make an accidental double post.

Anyway, progress has been slow on the levels, I've only made three and only one is almost finished.

Let me post pictures of the HUD and a starpost:

http://attachments.wetpaintserv.us/N7kFzkLo+xv7euJUxVjrjw==111588 Starposts are translucent when inactive then shoot out rings and become opaque when activated.

Tell me if removing certain parts of the HUD was a bad idea.

 

[Yugi]

Wow, everything looks really good so far. Keep up the good work, DashFox!

 

[JEV3]

Are we, are we required to walk on the pipes?

Vulcan Forge Zone ftw! Just be happy that at least you wouldn't be jumping in between damaging falls.

Also, uh, cutscenes?

Yes, fully animated intro and credits with some cutscenes in between secret levels.

Oooh, I'd love to see these, I don't see enough decent cutscenes. (briefings (MR 4.4) don't count)

As for the recently released material, it looks great, I can't wait to see more.
