Hi,
we are developing a Real Time Strategy Game. The idea is to have a fully commercial quality game, so we can sell it.

The game will be a futuristic game with four races:

The Humans (The tecnology).
The Lumis (The light).
The Gars (The mutation).
The Bist (The darkness).

For development, we are going to make use of schedules of activities, and we are going to make tools that can help us in the development of the game.

The style of presentation of this WIP is taken from Geisha House (Thanks cash). More a Dev Diary than a game presentation.

Screenshots?

---

I dont think your ready for a WIP. Id like to see some screenshots tho.

---

ho man. I Forgot that the community loves screenshots.




@ all: Since this is a development right from the start it's kinda difficult to post screenshots in this moments. This is a BIG project. The first part of any difficult and long project is to begin with architecture and tools.

There are many things to say:

Architecture:

Right now I writing the Game Spec. The story is going to take place in various parts of the universe, there are going to be ships and land units. One thing to say thogh is that each race is going to have it's own characteristics and advantages. Right now I'm finishing with the humans and they are going to have aremored and unarmored units. The Gars are going to have Heavy an low units mainly, they will have high reproduction rates on low units. For now I will say only that.



ScreenShots are part of a WIP. To get a good game when it's complex, you have to start from the architecture. And that is not easy task it can take several months.

For those of you that don't believe we are working in this project for 8 months but decided to start the 3D objects again from the beginnig because they could be improved.

(I have problems uploading a video of the hman constructor ) Wait a few hours please.

---

I could be wrong

---

Mmm, I could see why this gets flamed though. It sounds really good, but I really recommend you upload some stuff asap. Otherwise, I, personally, just consider this the 19000th WIP that doesn't comply.

---

Ok I supose I have to make haste

(Edit) This is the sketch of the human constructor (/Edit)


(Edit) This is the sketch of the human soldier (/Edit)

---

Wassup people

I'm with Alpha X in the game's development.
I work in character modeling and part of the programming. Nice to meet you all.

We started this game a long time ago, but we decided to start all over again in order to make it better. We are very excited with this project and we want to consider all details.

I'll have another video for you tomorrow. with the movement it will have in the game.

See ya

---

Hmm W.I.P. is called w.i.p. for a reason. Screenshots! But the concept looks exactly like C&C Tiberium wars soldiers and things. Nice Drawings.

---

I wasnt flaming.

@Alfa x

Nice drawings.

---

@ Carzy Programmer,DeathHead: thanks for your comments about the drawings. I don't know C&C Tiberium.

' --------------------------------------------------

New Update: We have uploaded the human constructor video in youTube. Here is the link:
(please watch it full screen)

http://youtube.com/watch?v=cL5ceYUl-5I

enjoy.

---

Now thats cool

---

*Spits out Coffee* now i need another coffee...*Spits it out again*
LOLXD

---

well, i still think you need screenshots from the game... the vid was nice to see animations for that one guy done, but with an RTS, you're going to have a lot of guys, right? and animations like those would only take 5-10 hours, maybe less with enhanced animation plugin.

---

jasonhtml has a point. But I would like to see a game arena for the game like in Command and Conquer Tiberium Wars they had like buildings in there not just tanks and command centres.

---

Since we are repeating Game graphics, we need some time to get everything together with graphics. I hope you are patient enough to wait at least four or five weeks.

' ----------------------------------------------

New Info:

About the story you can say that the Gars are the Lumis primary enemies and they will be in open War in the beginning of the game. Humans Are going to enter to balance thing a bit between both. Since Lumis are Under fierce atacks.

Kazaky Royalbird will be the the main character of the game in chaos architects, his main weapons will be gun and sword.

[Edit] I have uploaded the human constructor video for you to watch in a better resolution [/Edit]

---

I got the video of the human Soldier here in Gametrailers.com.
the site has better quality compression than youtube

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/88111.html

---

new Update:

The Object viewer versión 1 is nearly is done, and we are
beginning to do the tests.

Another thing to say about races is that they are going to be
really different and will not have so much things in common in
their abilities. After that we are going to do some equations to
make game balance.

[Edit] I Have uploaded the human soldier video [/Edit]

---

new Update:

About the architecture, I will only talk about humans.
Humans are going to have two main resourses:
Lava recolection and mines recolection.
About lava recolection you can say they will have especial devices
that alows them to see were to place a lava extractor for better lava extraction.

They will have also a satellite that will reveal all the map for them, this satellite launch will take several minutes and all enemies and friends will be alerted about the launch.

I will be updating from time to time.

---

I believe this. I'll be patient . Can't wait to see more.

---

Hi,
I posting to let you know that we are working in this at the moment.

We are reviewing the code of the object viewer and the artwork code at the moment. The code of the artwork is nearly done, but we haven't done the grphical design yet. We hope to have a video of the Artwork functional bahaviour from 7 to 10 days.

We are also coding the lasers of the game. The codification is going smooth and we are nearly done. Hope to have images or a video soon also about lasers.

We are also designing the model of the humans barracks. Hope to have also images about it from 7 to 14 days from here.

We are also working on the HUD and coding the engine. I make estimations to have the first version of the HUD in 21 days and a first version of the engine in about 30 days.

The architecture for humans is done.

---

The models look great so far! May I ask what you are using to make and texture them?

---

@ Jeff032: We are using blender to make the models and GIMP to do the textures.

---

Hi,
I'm working on this project as well.
Sometime ago I made some models of rocks for the game enviroments and recently I started to work on some textures for them.
These are some images of the rocks with different textures:

http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Demon000_bucket/Rocks_3-1.jpg

---

Hi,
Some update.

- Enviroment basic rocks complete. We have to work in enviroment complex rocks.

- Barracks model complete. We are texturing it in this moment.

- Explison FX sttarted.

- First song is in progress.

---

17th of August:
We hope to have a video of the Artwork functional bahaviour from 7 to 10 days.

Hope we still get to see that before the 27th! Can't wait to see more

---

got the gameplay video of the arwork program

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Q39oZvO_V7I

I'll have a higher qualitu video soon

---

@ tha rami: Hope you like it.

VIDEO:

---

Wow that's awesome guys

---

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/99616.html

The quality is a bit better here

---

Please be patient guys. The texturing of the Barracks is taking time. I want it to be really detailed in the textures and many things are trial and error because it may look good in the image, but in the model it may not match with what we want.

I'll have it done by the end of the week

---

here's the image of the human barracs




you can see the video of its transformation here

http://youtube.com/watch?v=qJqS4-8Yzss

and here with better quality

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/101657.html

oh and don't forget the artwork video posted before

---

awesome.

---

This is starting to become, as so aptly put, awesome.

---

i'm posting to let you know. We are still working on this game.
We dind't catch the goal, mainly because i had to stop working about three weeks. But i'm back so you can start counting three weeks from now!.

At the moment we are still working on complex rocks, explosión FX and we are planning to start the level making tool.

Hope you can wait.

@ tha rami: I'm still waiting your comments

---

Well alfa x, here goes.

The video looks like a great background encyclopedia for a game, something any really indepth game should have if you ask me. I loved everything in it, the music, the mountains in the background and the versatility of the system.

So, you've got your artwork top-notch. I'll start waiting for the gameplay now. You earned yourself my attention.

Whoa, that sounds arrogant.

---

Very impressive, the artwork works well and the video of the the transforming barrack is superb.

I just want to point out that I hope you consider revising the interface slightly, cause the style of the interface doesnt work with the models, the yellow square frames. And at some point you had it all stripped in beginning looks very odd. But the background looks cool though.

Mico

---

Mistake.

---

@ Tha rami: Thanks for you comments. We hope to continue earning your attention as well as the community. .

PD: The background weren't mountains.

@ Micophone: Thanks for the comments. The yellow square frames are placeholders,the artwork video only shows the functional part. We are waiting to have a more complete style to bring it to live.

thanks to all.

Hi,
sorry for no posting in so long time,
and to maintain de thread alive .
we are working in the level editor in this moment.
I think, we will show our first update without a level by now.
