Thank you for the reply... strange I have not. Maybe I will know something soon. I opened a ticket back in September and was told there was a delay and they would be shipping soon. <?>
I suppose it is the curse of Duke Nukem delays.

On the highest difficulty those flying little fuckers fucking suck. Worst enemy in a Build game. Yes, worse than the wasps in Shadow Warrior.

The game, though, is fucking great. On my third playthrough (on the highest diff.), and really, while I think the criticisms about weapon- and enemy variety are fair, I honestly think this is the best FPS in like 2 decades. Better than either Half-Life.
I'm not on the Discord so I miss out on all the juicy gossip, but what is this I hear about no sequel?

Guess necroslut will downvote me instead of joining the conversation and coming up with an argument for me saying this but I don't want a sequel. I'd love to have some DLC / expansion though and then a new Build game with a new theme and protagonist.

I only downvote you when you post retarded shit, and I tend to not "join the conversation" when I feel others have already said what I would say.
Well, yeah, I could definitely live with that sort of "spiritual sequel" – like in my mind Shadow Warrior was always a true Duke 3D successor.
Once upon a time a game – or movie – used to be "just a game", not an "IP" or "franchise". Some got a sequel or two, most didn't. That was pretty nice.
As long as they don't just hang up their boots due to some dumb shitstorm, which was sort of the vibe I got from "no sequel"...

Is there any news of the console ports of Ion Fury? I've not kept up with the announcements, so I don't even know if the console versions have been officially confirmed.
#3809 Posted 31 December 2019 - 03:38 PM
Oh it's been confirmed
sometime in 2020
I know we will be talking about it once a date comes out

Wow! Playing Iron Fury on the PS4 will be fantastic.
I was very disappointed that Night Dive Studios didn't port their first person shooter remakes to the PS4, but hopefully they'll port their System Shock Remake to the PS4, as they speculated a while ago.

That's the raw render without any overpaint, intended for 3rd person model.
Facial features are just palceholder for the actual overpaint stuff.

Well, not to insult anyone of course, I just think that 3d models of characters from sprite games usually don't look good. An example would be Duke Nukem 3D with full 3D.

A lot of models we have look quite bare before the overpaint. Models are more like a blueprint for the artist to work on.
The end result ends up being quite different to the renders, more colour depth gets added along with many additional details and cleanups.
Model renders directly are very bare bones and do not reflect the sprite itself, consider it 50% finished

You do understand that most of the sprites in Duke 3D were rendered off of 3D models just like this.

No, I did not. Still, the reverse process is strange to me.

It's the reason that Duke3D was able to run on such a wide range of hardware, whilst Quake required a bit more juice.
Rendering out images of 3D models makes it easier to animate the sprites, instead of having to manually/hand paint every frame from scratch. Doom used clay models and toys to do this.
Trying to render a model like the one posted there, in real-time, would grind even a modern system.

Yes, animating and lighting, you get a consistent light source that way.
It's actually quite hard to make consistent directional frames without some reference like that, what gets obscured during rotation etc..

That's not even the full quality texture and lighting. It's a draft render for reference.

the Twin Peaks easter egg doesn't work
UPDATE: i'm a f*cking idiot. I pressed the button, fell to my dead, and after loading i forgot to press it again.
