Actually, the workers may live at a power plant because it would be too far from home.

I like the screenie, just add some light sources on the ceiling, now the light's coming out of nowhere.

And dude... Just stop changing things. It's not even funny anymore, when during one day you change the 1st level,story,and main character all at least three times. Either stick to the story you have now or ask someone else to write it for you. And please stop changing the first level. If you get new ideas, then fine, have that new idea be level 3, or 9, or 21 or whatever. Just stick with one idea as the first level and GET THAT BLOODY LEVEL DONE! Please.

Now, back to work, soldier!

I'd have to say I agree with that. From what I've seen your screenshots typically show a nice looking game - so instead of scrapping everything and remaking the first level again and again - just keep it - and make the other ideas you have into other levels rather than scrapping the levels you've already made and starting over with the new ideas. Just a suggestion, but I think it would work for you.

I'll keep the first level as a power plant, but where should the player start, outside or inside? And I have this neat idea for level 19 to be a missile silo.

Here is a screenshot of the storage room on the second floor of the power plant (second from the top). This area is almost done, I just gotta add a maintenance elevator and the area the elevator is in. Rate x/10, and leave a comment, please, thank you.

Before I forget, here's a list of weapons in level 1:
M4CQBR (start weapon)
Desert Eagle
Glock 17
AK74M
M67 Fragmentation Grenade
M107 sniper rifle (found in "arena" at the end of the level)
JSCS Breeching shotgun

How do you know that level 19 is going to be a missle silo? Do you have the 18 levels planned up to that? It wouldn't make sense to be running through a street for level 18, and then appear in a missle silo for 19...
Get a gameplan together (Plan your ENTIRE game out) before you start building anything. That's why Tristan Craft is taking so long. We are still deciding on what levels should go where. We might have a finished plan, though... Anyway, you need to know what you're doing for the entire game before you start on the first few levels. You can put in things that tie in to the ending in the beginning of the game. It's a lot easier to accomplish your final result if you have a set in stone plan of what the next level will be. After you get your level plan done, draw up some maps on paper. Then bring them into FPSC. That way you'll have looked at the map twice(Once on paper, once making it in FPSC). This will help you finish your games. If you need any help with the game plan, send me an email, and I'll see what I can do.

Hope that helps,
Gunn3r

Thanks for comments. I won't be playing with FPSC today because I got Medal of Honor: Allied Assault at a bookstore and I want to play around with it. Anyone who has it, look me up online, I'm AmericanInfantry.

Then why did you post it here!?! We don't need to know this! It's a showcase, not a "life and times of AI" thread...

And do you ever take our advice into account? Gunn3r posted a very helpful comment and you didn't really respond, and it's the same for most of the other posts like his.

I am reading Gunn3r's post for digestion...

And about the MoHAA help, I am downloading a patch for multiplayer. See you on the field!!

EDIT: Thank you for the valuable info, Gunn3r. If I ever need help, I'll drop you a line. And yes, I'm a fast reader.

You aren't a fast reader at all. You just skim through everyone's post of advice (which is what most of everyone's post in this thread are) and you don't take in anything you read.

*rummages through book* The storyline, just to make it brief, is about a US Army solo operative searching for information about a terrorist cell hired by al-Qaeda. The cell's origin is Russia. Some missions take place in the USA, as well (in one of the missions, I'm going to try to pull off the inside of a plane). I've changed some things around, but the main character's name remains to be Vincent Marbourough.

It's sad that a user that joined within a month knows the rep of AI and his infamous way of not finishing games...

AI, follow my advice. Actually read it. It's important. It may take you a minute or two, but it will help save your rep and your game.

Sorry for the double post, but a little bump and game update (change!):

Level 1 as a power plant (strictly) is not working out for me, so I am redoing it as the Kola Nuclear Power Plant (link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kola_Nuclear_Power_Plant). The mercenaries (who are all donning gas masks in this mission, by the way) along with a few others disguised in Hazmat suits are planning to destroy the plant. Since it supplies power for the Murmansk Oblast area, it could devastate an entire span of 95 miles around the Oblast and inwards. The enemies' and the player's weapons are an issue though; help on the issue of weaponry? Also, there will be an underground bunker only accessable from a long, long elevator, and that will be the last part of level 1 (level 1: Kola NPP; levels 2, 3, & 4: underground bunker parts 1, 2 and 3).

I honestly think this thread she be locked now. This isn't even a WIP anymore. You make a level and then just drop it. That's all you do. First, you would change the name and your levels. How about you finish a level then post about it. We don't want to know what you AREN'T going to do anymore. Finish something first for once.

It's ten pages now and there's not a single level done.

AI, you're lucky that swearing's not allowed on these forums, because otherwise I would unleash a can of profanity on your butt.

Stop. Changing. The. First. Level.

Yeah, its ten pages..man..both of my games one of which I dropped were only one page and had like 6 times the work than this. Just release a demo or a beta or something so we can see..you could even release a beta of what you've given up on..like that town level or etc etc..

Yeah, I just don't know what's wrong with me. I've made up my mind--level 1's going to be the Kola NPP no matter what. On some other forum, I got more than a can of profanity thrown at me, Ehetyz, it was more like a galaxy-full of profanity.

Rather than flame the guy, and get yourselves worked up, why don't you just stop replying? It's a bit sick that this "game" gets bumped to the top of the forum every day because it's so bad.

AI, this thread is a disgrace to the board, it should be locked since you have no relevant screens or progress and are simply taking all the good members who are replying for a ride.

Well, you did at least get the basic idea of a game plan down. Now you need to be confident in it. You need to use this as a final game plan. Don't change anything.

AI, I'm thinking of asking a mod to see if he can lock this, it's not a WIP, it's a brainstorm.

Please just stop posting until you have 1, yes, 1 level complete.

If you change once more, I'll ask a mod to come and see this.

And i'm following the advice stated previously and not posting here until I see some evidence of a game, so, cya in a few years.

I just realised that this topic outbeats Eldora for posts and yet its hardly to the same quility(no offence just a lot of work was put into it)and has only a few screenshots.
I would advise that you just pumping out screenshots as fast as possible get basic layouts of all your levels then you can go back and add detail.
Make one really good level and either make a video on it or playable demo.
Leave the story as it is as its just causing delays.
Dont think think about voice actors until the end and if you cant get good quility voice work use Text(images)
