Hi all, Shatterpoint multiplayer map one, "The Figure Eight" would have been released today if not for the error I ran into.(please respond if you have any ideas of what it could be). But anyway you all probably know my totally huge, wide open, shader-happy level design which I get flamed for, but I have never seen an FPSC game that is an epic, wide open, non horror, no zombies sci-fi shooter. Heres a screenshot of the game so you can see what 2 yrs. of production on an audacious project can produce. Questions or comments please.

Ignore the white marks. Those are transparency.

Doesnt look half bad, only thing i dont like is that you have used the same segment for three levels, i would replace the walls on level 2 to the mid-variation etc.

It's ok but honestly it doesn't look that great... It's mostly stock media and yes the rooms are big but it's nothing new. Plently have tried to go for that but FPSC is simply too restricted. Your frame rate is going to get killed and no one will play...

No need to be rude, he was just giving a suggestion...and an important one, at that. If you've got a poor framerate, fewer people will play.

It does look alright, though. The wall segments are my only real complaint, as they don't seem to blend together well.

Keep it up, though!

It makes your game look like every "my first game" thread on here. Stock media is actually pretty good quality, but shows no dedication to the project or initiative. Anyone with FPSC can replicate your game in a few minutes.

Quote: "My goal is to make this game as close as I can get to X10"

Why? There is an X10 version of FPSC for a reason, and it handles enemies and large areas much better than X9. Looking at your level, you must have a damn good machine if your frame rate is doing alright.

For everyone else theres masterca-I mean lag.

Wow, are you 5 years old or something? You are the only one who seems to be looking upon this as an argument. If you get all worked up by the slightest critisim then don't bother post on this forum... End of story.

If you are QUITE SURE that your game is working fine then please give us screens from test game so we can all see how great your frame rate is...

There's nothing new about this game except the fact that you seem to be purposefully ignoring the fact that FPSC has limits. I have a high spec computer and I can't even make 1 large room without a drop in frames let alone a room with 5 enemies in it. You are ruining what could be a good game.

Okay, take a chill pill, sit down and relax. Your games is not perfect, or even close to it. Don't go thinking that. He was just making constructive criticism. I agree, your frame rate will suffer. Also, you never took my earlier advice. You didn't make better lighting, make the rooms smaller or add entities. Right now it looks bland, there is nothing inside of the rooms. Don't throw tantrums just because someone tries to help.

okay I'm sry but I'm not going to take all of your suggestions, Iam not any amecher and i'm not five years old!!!!!!! I will add more variety to the environment, But I will not stop using stock media in these enviroments unless I find something, more, you know, quality. But I do also have some suggestions for you gize. Stop Encouraging me to make a 90's style game thats not Half life or quake. This game is not yet another "somthing goes turribly wrong and you has to fight teh zombeeze walkyn arownd" game. The lights are not moody for a reason. This is not another %$#&*! horror game! Plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz get it straigt!

You need to take some sort of depressant and calm down. We are not encouraging you to make a 90's style game at all. And we do not want you to make a horror game. Here is some examples of good games that use lighting, and aren't horror. Stop whining and arguing and take our advice. Oh, and by the way, you are an amateur, we all are. Except EAI, none of use have worked on a professional game.

Contradicted yourself there. If you want to prove you're not an amateur, take some initiave and make your own media.

Also, Darimc hit the nail on the head. Just because you aren't making a horror game doesnt mean that you can neglect lighting. Lighting is a massive part of game design, and currently, your lighting leaves a lot to be desired.

You don't have to make it dark, or add flickering lights, but add some decent lights which cast dramatic shadows. Look at every top title out there which you would describe as "epic", and what you want to aspire to. Now look at how the scenes are lit. Does the lighting in those games look bland to you?

I have nothing else to add here. I kind off understand your rudeness, 2 Rogues. You have worked 2 years on this level and then you get critizised. It's understandable but please, try to control yourself.

2 Rouges, Please try to calm yourself. These are suggestions, not critizism. Try reducing the variation of the wall segments, as the multiple textures hurt your load time and framerate (which you should be worried about), and it also makes the place look out of order. You can use stock media and still make a good game, but try to at least add some good shader effects and texturing (both of which you are doing well.)

Thank you for helping us help you help us all.

I am doing all of this but you seem to be going against what all the others are saying. They want me to add more variations to the textures and to not use stock media, but I hear what your saying and I'm still using some stock media. I try to retexture as much as possible, and I'm a huge shaders fan! Ive taken all your suggestions into account, but only a few of them made it into the game. Check it out. I added variation to the textures and made more static objects. It doesn't look good at all, my framerate went from 15 on high to 0. Sorry gize Your ideas are just not working for me.

So making a game that looks good is not working for you? That doesn't make any sense. You want to have a game that looks bad.

2 Rogues do what you got to do. when nintendo came out with n64 the game goldeneye. wasnt about graphic it was about fun. if your game is fun with good framrates than keep it the way it is. im not going to tell you how you should make your game. i understand that fpsc is hard on framerates. so good job on the game hope to play it to see what its like. everyone give him a break the man has a vision.

The FPS is 15.

Before blaming this on your computer, it's very likely that more people on this forum have low end computers than high end.

Guys, just stop criticizing him and just don't say anything. He seems to not care what anyone has to say at all, and I know that once I post this he is going to come here and say, yeah I do, I just think their ideas suck. So like I said, our ideas suck. So just let him figure it out himself. He will figure out what we mean when he counts the number of downloads he has on the game.
