Yep, no polymer. Maybe some time later if it ever gets released it could be patched to add lights, but for now it would be too time consuming.

tbh, the zombimodels included right now are not that hot...
I got another one in the making right now (posted some pics of that earlier in this thread).
Diehard sent me the fat one (pics also earlier in this thread). I could animate that.
And Cage sent a Pshop-file with an embedded model but i was only able to save the texture.
Are there any other models floating around that could be used?
I really think we should try to get new models in or improve the existing ones...
@MBlackwell: Maybe you could make the fat one spit gooballs at the player (like in Blood)?

I understand why you are doing this, as you are 100% right that if we start adding a lot of stuff it will never get done.
But it would have been great to get some high-res zombies done and polymerise them!

I don't believe I have any other zombie models, no. If you guys want to replace them with your own, do it up and then send me the results. I believe there's at least two implemented zombies with alt skins. If it was able to use the same code base I could easily add a third. Then, when I have everything I can send everyone a patch (though eventually we should get an svn, if all goes well).
Did you guys go through the ZTEST maps? I believe there's at least one enemy that has no model for it at all currently.
As for polymerizing things, if you wanted to basically map/model with it in mind (but not spend a ton of time implementing it), that's fine. As long as it looks good and runs well in Polymost. As I said, after it's out we can go back and make it prettier, but at least version 1.0 will be out for people to give feedback.

Looking at what has to be done to complete the maps, I'm thinking that MBlackwell is right in that we just get the Polymost version out the door and work on Polymerization later.
I was working on a basic human male mesh that could be adapted to a zombie or two if anyone is interested. PM me.

Looks great!
I just sent MBlackwell my first zombie and right now i'm working on the second one (the fat one, screenshot see page 1).
So, what if you finished this one?

LOL, I'll make one at least. I have an idea for one of the critters as well. I was offering the mesh in case anyone wanted to use it as a springboard to make something else.

Niiice.
And I keep mentioning them but don't forget the ZTEST maps. They show what actors to use in maps and they SHOULD show if there are any tags you should pay attention to (there's a few like zombies that come out of the ground that are useful). I think I have it set up so if you use pal 3 enemies remain stationary until they see you rather than wander around. Don't know if that's demonstrated in any of the ZTEST maps though.

I used ZTEST 7 to test my models, but i am puzzled by one thing. I think the zombies have no pain animation. I included them in the defs but they didn't show during testing.
Could you please check that?

Can't check now, but most likely it's the first frame of the death animation. Saved frames that way (and meant I could transition straight to death pretty easily).

Is anyone intrested in my barricade-code / art? I would give it to you!
#108 Posted 10 March 2010 - 08:54 AM
Here, I made a little vid of it... the sound lags, sorry for that.

It works like this: You place a sprite where the player should be able to barricade.. ingame the player has to collect wood to place a barricade then. There are three barricade-types. If the player collects wood and uses a barricade, it will be upgraded to the next barricade-level-thingy.

Ah, nice! There's an almost identical feature in Amc TC too, should definitely put that in!
edit: Here's a video of it in action, as you can see it works a little differently but it's still basically the same thing.

This reminds me that I need to continue working on my mod since it just needs some artwork to be fixed and very little to code.

Don't sell yourself short. This is some pretty cool stuff.
#117 Posted 14 March 2010 - 05:21 AM
Hmm, it's strange... it seems that the wood sprite is invisible, you can still pick it up and if i barricade something nothing happens.
Can you include an example map?
Also no con errors in my log.

I uploaded an updated zip with a small demo map. Also I forgot to say is: If you place a barricade with lotag 1 it wont spawn the BARRICADESPRITE when destroyed.
