I remember you mentioning you was working the map. Did you really expect me to keep track of on which forum you posted it?

[DavoX]

I also recall Micky C saying that he was going to map

[Micky C]

Find me the quote. I might have lightly implied it or said something that indirectly gave it away, but I don't recall saying "hey everyone I'm working on a map" or anything along those lines on this forum.

Edit: fixed stupid phone autocorrecting.

[DavoX]

Any case it's great that you're doing so

So the Dukebike ebike doesn't seem to work with blocking floor alligned sprites in a sector with lotag 1 (water), it falls right through. That's a pretty serious bug.

There was one more I dont find.

Yeah, that's a slight implication, but not a statement. I could have just been testing it in the original levels or something.

Anyway here are the promised pics. Bear in mind they're WIP. I'm not showing anything beyond the first third of the level, at least not at this point.

That´s a good idea but the underwater leech doesn´t seem to belong to the old DNF. However there´s one on the desert....

Yes, I was talking about the desert one. The one that kills the donkey.

Spoiler

You wouldn't even have to change the current ending sequence.

EDIT:
And I really wish I would know more about mapping in the Build engine, just because of this mod. But then I am very busy with other projects anyways and wouldn't find any time.

Maybe you could convince interceptor to make a game in the build engine.

[Bloodshot]

I almost want to see a level similar to crash course from DNF (but with good level design) in this mod. it'd be interesting having an entire level up that high where you also climb up.

Editing the shotgun cannon from SW for the miniguns might work better with the rest of the Duke's artwork, but it's your call.

But it may be just me, I've seen the Doom guns way too many times!

[Micky C]

Ultra late edit: I'm replying to Bloodshot's post.

That would be sweet. However that sort of random horizontal floating sloped circular architecture is the worst thing you can try doing in the build engine. It's pretty much impossible.

You might be able to pull off a very very small scale version using TROR but that's going to be ultra glitchy in polymost which is a no-no in this mod.

[Fox]

After playing this mod I feel like creating my own motorcycle code. Perhaps a global non-flying vehicle code.

FTFY

In DNF everything was made using models - you can do that in both Polymost and Polymer as well. Collision is the trickiest part but using a mix of invisible sprites and clipshapes it should be doable without even using TROR. Also, models are very cheap to render.

Yeah, I know that's not usable for this project, but since you said Build engine...

[Bloodshot]

Holy shit

Playing No One Lives Forever 2 for the first time in years and I get farther then I've ever gotten, and what do I find out?

These guys


Are where the "Who are you" and "Who did this to me?" EDF soldier sounds are from.

You guys make some awesome choices. Wasn't expecting to stumble across something like that so randomly

[Gambini]

Who did this to me?

Heh! and Mikko thought they sounded stupid

BTW NOLF 1&2 are awesome games. I loved them!

[Diaz]

Yeah, specially NOLF 1. To me it's still the best shooter ever made, perfect mix of stealth and action. Alright, that might sound like an exaggeration to most, but at the very least it's terribly underrated.

[Bloodshot]

IMO both of them are. Though NOLF 1's stealth system was a lot more finicky then 2's, and then that was underlined by those missions where if you were spotted it was game over. Other then that though, it's great. (NOLF 1 and 2 have snowmobiles, and 1 even had motorcycle segments) It's a shame after NOLF 2 monolith devolved into making generic action shooters (probably because of how much they would overshadow the NOLF games even though they got such high praise) that while still fun, weren't nearly as interesting, because I would love to see more games with this kind of variety and over-the-top badassery and wackiness.

One of my favorite moments



It makes it extra exciting that if you want to make the jump while things are blowing up you actually have to risk it and time it right yourself.

[Sangman]

Ahhh fuck you, now I'm gonna have to spend an entire weekend searching for wherever I put NOLF1/2.

i was warking a sprites sheet of army ant

[DavoX]

Heh that looks cool, are you using proper pallettes , size of the sprite , etc? (i don't know much about that but I know that's important)

[Fox]

The palette seems fine. keep in mind that for a sprite work properly as an enemy, it must resized to 93,75% or less.

I insist that you should post those in the what´re u working on thread. As I don´t plan to add content from other people, or if do, i´ll come out to ask. It´s funny also that I was thinking of that Witchaven thug for making those ants at some point, but if so, I´d like to do it myself.

[Jimmy]

The spritework is okay, but honestly, he's just too small. The Army Ant is obviously an imposing enemy.

The head looks like the Kilmaat alien from Powerslave. I like (the body should be a bit taller though).

[zykov eddy]

The body taken from Hacx, I believe.

[Gambini]

But there´s a thug in Witchaven that looks quite similar. At least, it was the one I´d have used as a base to do those ants:



Still Jet_nick is a neat combination.

[jet_nick]

I wanted to give just an idea, that's all xd

[Gambini]

Ok, it´s a good idea so thanks for the suggestion.

[Bloodshot]

Oh hey, it's this mod's bike



Honestly though it feels pretty similar, and they are available in MP maps which is pretty awesome
