It is only test room not final. My artist now finish this room (some posters, bottles on bar etc.) and then we produce detailed lightmap. We plan model and animate barman. He will go to hi-fi system and change music during playing.

Thanks.
I finished some new features (better game physic). If is someone interested, then there is in-game video. But all is WIP. Room model isn't finished and FPS is slow because video capturing software.

Xvid in-game video - 6.8 MB - 1 min 28 sec

looks great in motion!! are the physics your own system, or did you use Tokamak (or another library)?

One of the more fun things about playing a game of pool is the opportunity to smack the balls around wildy at the end of a game you just lost, to pot the balls you failed to before the table eats another 50p.
Also, not waiting until the cue ball stops rolling before I start to position my next shot. Having that unatural delay in computer pool is annoying.

May I suggest you add think about adding these features.

Wow, I'm loving it, the gameplay really does the do the screenshots justice. Good job on what I've seen so far.

I'm also wondering what you used to take those shots. The only way I know of (at least to get descent fps) is to run the game through my tv, record it, the capture from the recording (tape) onto the comp.

Nice

Looks good.

To give a more realistic look you could round off the edges of the table, put some pool cue racks against the wall and instead of white corners they should be wood with a black pocket lining.

Its one good looking game.
