That's not a bomb. It's a stock picture of an unrealistic archetype of a bomb.

I know.
The pic is just to represent a timebomb.


I saw some similar.
They use a clock and other stuff.
It's easy to make.

There are many ways to built that.

[Fox]

It is not. You have not seen pictures of realistic bombs.

True.
But if they are built all similar it must resemble.

Just like dinosaurs made by man in movies.
They dunno the color of real dinosaurs but they know their shapes because of fossils and skels etc.

If people built them they are all differently made cus we dunno the real one what it looks like.
All stuff are (home made) both in films and real life from bombmakers.

I say is easy as.
You can make a clock, put little wires
One on the hand of the clock.
And one terminal sticking out on the (zero) inside the clock.

Let say your clock has one hand and has 60 minutes.

The hand has a wire, and you have a pin on the zero.
When the hand reaches zero and touches the pin, the current passes and power the ignitor in the explosive.

[Fox]

Using an actual "clock" in a bomb only makes sense in filmmaking.

Real explosive used by military:

Pipebomb (disarmed):

[Gambini]

Awesome work on that pipebomb, almost looks like a real thing (and the dirt texture too!).

[High Treason]

Fox clearly isn't familiar with IEDs. They were all over the news a few years back, and my Casio F-91W is the watch they strap to them to set them off... As the bomb is Improvised (Improvised Explosive Device - hence IED) one can assume they would contain the explosive in almost anything they could find, maybe even in a red tube with their watch taped to it. It's a bomb, so I somehow think trying to make it look presentable would be a waste of time.

Though I think Zaxtor's point was that he wasn't going for accuracy so much as just implying some guy in the game world was making explosives. If you saw that picture the first thing you'd think it was meant to be is surely a bomb and therefore it serves it's purpose perfectly.

I'd like to add that I only have that watch because it's cheap and keeps time just as accurately as anything else.

[ReaperMan]

40 packs of sparklers and 2 rolls of duck tape is all you really need.....not that i would know.

Now I'm being watched by the Government.

[Mblackwell]

That's just silly!


We've always been watching you

[Zaxtor]

Working on probably the "most complicated" elevator I've ever made.

It goes, Horizontal (forward), (stop), then vertical (up), (stop) and then horizontal (in reverse) and (stops).

[Micky C]

How are you doing it? Some kind of con coded sprite elevator?

[Zaxtor]

Well hybrid type.
Con code and sector related effectors (stuff in duke SE and ST) thingie.

Con code is mainly for its function, doors etc.

[The Commander]

My brain hurts...

[Zaxtor]

Working on my mod included only shown FX (live) the elevator.

Only (cool trick) I will show in a video for my mod.
The elevator I was working for a few days.
Industrial elevator,
Passes close of obstacle without touching them.

Was extremely hard to make.

Had to make it follow its rail,
Sound sync,
Making it so it goes extremely close of the obstacle without touching them.
Door trick for the elevator's doors.

Vid shows its function, and including outside view when is operating.
(In the mod I will add a locked switch outside of it).

Also cool thing is if you pause the game during its operation it doesn't ruin (stop) the elevator sounds when unpause.
It resume the sound as soon you unpause (no desync).

[Simon_Croes]

THAT... is freakin insane, Zaxtor!

[MusicallyInspired]

Wow.

[Micky C]

That is pretty damn nice. I'm guessing it uses a two-way train and a vertical floor rise effect? I wish more people would think of creative uses of standard effects like this.

I'm getting back to work on this bastard of a level I originally started more than 2 years ago. It should be unlike anything previously done in duke as far as I'm aware.

[Fox]

I like these buildings, though I don't understand why people keep making floors with flat sprites when they are using TROR. And what's that in front of the main entrance, a fountain made of flat sprites?

Soo complex and cool.

Two way combined with (SE 31)
The timing, sound sync and following rail was the hardest.
Also lots of coding. Doors etc.

Yes is rare.
Oblivion example in E2L1 uses a rotating elevator. (codeless thing)
closes door then goes up (stops) rotates (stop and then goes up. and open doors.

And you thought Hammer was a mess to work in... good one.

[Sanek]

15 years after Duke's mission on planet Taygeta, he have to return here to eliminate these alien bastards once again! This is an old, abandoned map of mine, which I started back in 2010, but skipped then. I think it's time to continute it, after all these years...a sort of tribue to one of my favorite classic maps...











Coming soon

well, at first glance I was like hmm how can that be cool? and then I saw your youtube video. Thank you for posting that. That was unfreakin' REAL! I love it! I can't even beginning to wrap my head around that trick. But it looks amazing. Well worth the time, nicely done!

Well that's a crazy wiremess if i've ever seen one. I mean.. Wire Mesh... haha can't wait to see the finished product Micky looks very impressive. Feel free to send me a backup copy.. You can never have enough backups =)

[Micky C]

Looks good Sanek, but shouldn't it be "return TO taygeta"?

Too many city themed maps these days.

[brullov]

Duke Nukem 3D Reloaded with HRP and some HL2 models. One day, I will make the E1L1 in UDK.

[NUKEMDAVE]

I was attempting something like that a while back, but without adding anything new.

[Kyanos]

Those make this look lame

[Mark]

Can I join the remake club too?

This is the best looking one so far.

But for the best remake outside of build... this is it.


I have no idea what happened to the audio... I believe the original video got taken down.
