Peter sent me a couple of extra models today, which you can find in http://www.shiningsource.net/Devlyn/dl/dr as well :)
Here’s a preview of some of them :)
Ye Happy Elfin Dude ;)
Interesting ruins, which are also used in a BABS background :)
Peter’s First Real Castle ™
As I mentioned before, there are others too :)
I just uploaded a fresh version of BABS. Here is what I changed :)
Updates from 2.01
Added some basics for the events system. Every zone can be linked to an event through some code in the accompanying scriptfile. The only working event right now is a Map Switch, which can be coded in a script file like this:
zone.(number).type=mapswitch
zone.(number).target=(mapname without the .smf extension)
Note that zones and events only work in walkabout maps at the moment. Support for them in battle maps might arrive later on.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Zylokh, Elvenfyre, Peter van Dalen and Ranges (even though I haven’t had much time tofix the bugs he reported yet) for their ongoing support :)
I hope you’ll enjoy the program! I’m still quite short on tiles, maps and sprites, so if you like, feel free to make some and send them to me :D
This morning Peter e-mailed me a bunch of fresh screenshots of Dark Resurrection 3D, his latest Shining-style endeavour :)
Peter has created several models using Blitz3D, Geoscape3D, Cartography Shop, TreeMagik, Plantlife and GameSpace 1.6 (yes, that’s a heck of a lot indeed!). He plans on creating more for his own game of course, but is also willing to create 3D models for other projects. :)
Here are a few screenies for your enjoyment:
A ruined castle
Arches which serve an unknown but undoubtedly mysterious purpose.
You can find many other new (and old) screenshots here :)
Thanks to Produn for this update on SF:TA!
“Yes, after a long time we’ve managed it to do a update. Dev I myself Produn still are busy with our exams, so the development stopped a bit. But we got a new addition to the force – AJ Letson, who hopefully brings new energy to the team.
Remember were still searching for lots of helpers, like programmers,CG artists and music makers.
Now to the update –
The chara section is now almost done, just some bios have to be added, but the portraits for all charas are done. And even if we have all chara portraits done, the secret charas wont be revealed until games finished ;) Also we now have a complete monster list, and this list is very long
What we are working next on strongly depends on what help will maybe arrive. It would be cool if 1-2 programmers find the way here, cause a new demo isnt to far away. Or some CG artist for beginning with the weapon and chara sprites.”
Hi all,
i will be taking about six months to a year off, so that i can solely work on the game fulltime, starting in july! That’s 10 weeks from now. This means i will progress much faster, and probably have a close to complete gameplay demo two or three months later. I hope the TV3D6.5 beta (3D Engine) will go public until then, otherwise i am not allowed to make a release :)
I was working on my editor during the weekends, so that’s halfway complete now. I decided to go with Softimage XSI for content creation, so the next step is to purchase that and integrate it into my working pipeline.
So i am kinda excited about dedicating more time to the game, then i can push it more. It’s gonna be awesome :)
Oh yeah, i am going to visit the E3 in Los Angeles this year, i’ll try to get some publisher’s adresses. Who cares if it’s utopic or not :)
