it's time to curb-stomp and chew bubblegum



and i'm all outta gum

[Jolteon]

This looks rather... Familiar.



Textures might be replaced though.

Edit: Finally managed to kill the both of them without cheats. It's REALLY Tough! Might need to make it a little easier somehow.

[Loke]

Too bad there's no monster infighting in Duke3D.

Before anyone complains about scale...it's not easy putting a full-sized Star Destroyer in a Duke map. I had to add a hack just to make the thing not disappear from certain vantage points. Let's call it a micro SD.

EDIT: I increased the scale of the Star Destoyer by 50% since posting that pic. Had to make some adjustments but it's better now. Still not quite full-size but close enough.

Looks great can't wait for version 2.0.

[CruX]

i actually wanted to release this shit like, a while ago but last week I decided to retool it by basing it on Hendrick's con sample for DN3D's weapons, that way it (should be) fully functional with the original hud. In the meantime enjoy this really short video of the shotgun animation, which i'm weirdly proud of for whatever fuckin reason.

[Danukem]

^Nice animation, very smooth.

Using def Scale factor or changing the actual model size via editor?

How you avoid that big models like that are trapassabile? Placing invisible walls?

Sure it is; assuming of course that the player doesn't go down there, you can put all that in a skybox.

The player goes down there and can move all around it, TIE fighters fly around it etc. No, it's definitely going to stay in the map, not in a skybox. Anyway, it works fine -- I had to place a few proxy sprites around the map in different locations and code them so that the model will get rendered when any of those sprites are in the rendering pool.

Md2 and md3 does not allow that level of detail (funny that md2 a different kind of LOD value), what is the new format?

Shame that after the VERY old frontend 1.6, beta 108 I guess, I can't play with Doomsday engine anymore...

Zdoom and other Boom variations map/mods still uncompatible? It would not make much sense.

I thought MD3 didn't have an explicit poly limit? Anyway I assume he's going to create a lower poly version and bake a normal map to it with the high poly version.

[Hendricks266]

I think by "level of detail" he means the precision of the coordinate system.

[Spiker]

Buffing the scale of a model makes it possible to preserve the details (not in the defs but md3 itself).

[Gambini]

^ This. There´s some kind of low decimal limit for coordinates on md3 format.

Personally, I would have made it an Imperial Interdictor, a much smaller imperial cruiser that looks somewhat like a Star Destroyer. Would fit better, since a Star Destroyer is large enough to be considered a floating city.

[Micky C]

I believe you're after the Interdictor Cruiser: http://starwars.wiki...rdictor_cruiser

I'm a trekkie and by no means a Star Wars expert, but the article you linked to appeared to be referencing a very specific one-off ship as opposed to the general class of ships that it's based on.

[MusicallyInspired]

Interdictors were plentiful in the EU. I don't know whether they've been used too extensively in canon, though. Either way, they aren't as recognizable, for sure...

That's a good idea, but I don't have a model for that. Did I mention that it is now 50% bigger than what was shown in the screenshot? (Still not to scale, I know).

[OpenMaw]

My attempt to recreate/emultate the style of the OG Duke3D Duke in 3DS Max. Very very rough draft.

It's not for Doom.

So it is a WIP of the new chaingun of liz commander isn't?

It remains a nice work.

[Sanek]

I'm working on something

[Lunick]

Are some of those textures from The Adventures of Square?

Yes. Is that bad?

[Lunick]

It was just recognisable to me, that's all

[Sanek]

I just learn Photoshop extensively right now, and so decided to draw some simple textures and import them into duke, and to make some simple map entierely without any original duke textures...with some free textures and sprites lying around

Because Fox is a fucking idiot and no mod seems to be doing anything about his bullshit of posting huge off topic gifs in the Wieder thread. You have him to thank. It's acceptable to do this so here, have 200+mb worth of his gifs because hey, it's hilarious right?
