WWII Assault Force


Story
The date is June 8, 1944. A young paratrooper from the 82nd Airborne Division was swept off course from the landing spot two days ago. His wandering has brought him further from the rest of his squad, deepining himself into the enemy's lines. After finding an abandoned supply stash from the germans, he grabs an MP40 and stocks up on ammunition. His compass, broken by the fall, is of no use to him, and without it, little does he know that his plan to get back to the Allies is only about to lead him into the heart of the enemy...

Progress
You may know of this game from an eariler W.I.P. I posted awhile ago. This version has a large amount of behind-the-scenes work. There are also some more notable and obvious features - Muzzle flash, preset terrain (rather than randomized) made my the new level editor (not included yet). There are also new collision and particle changes/additions. A full timer system, to avoid speed issues with lower framerates, is also working fine.

looks like a great game i usually hate WWII games and i usually never like a fps storyline but this actually looks fairly interesting

edit: not to be too serious or anything but wouldnt a solder know how to use the sun for a compass so it wouldnt really matter if his compass broke unless it was really cloudy

I've added a cool little plane feature. It's just a plain that flys around randomly pretty much. When it leaves the boundries it is repositioned and faces a diffrent random direction, so far it seems to be working fine. I'm adding it to the feature list now.

Oh, and I'd like some C&C

*Ignore the blue trees, it's a bug with the fading system.

I'm sorry but I just can't appreciate the visuals like everyone else. For one that blood looks awful, you may want to hit up Limefly and look for one from various contributers there. Second, what the hell is up with the trees? Also, that grass texture is way to stretched out for the terrain, you need something that just looks better. =/

Now this is only the visual aspect, I'm just downloading the demo now and will comment on the game-play tomorrow. =)

Ya, this skycube is pretty good, it's by Clueless as part of his skycube set

I used to be using a DarkMatter skysphere, though I think skyboxes are better preformace wise (maybe not so much visually) and these skycubes are really nice.


Eventually I'm also going to get weapons from the WW2 model pack 1 (I have it) in here, and *maybe* buildings and such from the second pack, though I don't own it, and I'm lacking money

EDIT: Anime Blood, you posted the second before me! The trees are going to be remande (look in the feature list) with a newer version of Tree Majik, and hopefully I'll get new textures soon too. I'm trying to replace many of the models with better ones along with that, maybe some better detailed ones with some sort of LOD for ranges so I don't get any lag.

EDIT 2: Oh ya, the blood is from the Sprite Pack from TGC, it looks better in game Way better than the old 'red stars' I had before...

It looks pretty good, especially if you shape up the trees. I notice you said you're going to be trying to use the advanced terrain plugin instead of a matrix. I think the ground is another part of the visuals that is lacking, just because it is so jagged, it doesn't seem to look very real to me. Other than that, it seems like a great start. Keep it up!

Yes, I'm definently going with the Advance Terrain plugin, it won't be hard to change, seeing as all that objects do relating to the matrix is checking their height. I can do that with the terrain too. Plus, I just downloaded Strata Works, and it does some pretty nice terrains

i used to play a game called wwIIonline and it was really fun to play. If you can eventually turn this into a multi-player game with emphasis on defending and capturing choke points then I would become super interested...

keep it up, looks like a good start.....

Well, I got in advance terrain, but here's what I'm rewarded with:

That's not good at all! But the terrain looks extremely better now. It looks fantastic now, except for the trees of course. Hope you fix that AI!

I just did, there was some problem with the heights of the terrain - basicly, if an enemy was up high, it didn't work. This is cause I was using raycasting to find the diffrence - now I'm using vectors, which is alot faster and better overall. I'm already starting to replace the trees.

Okay, I only have 4 outta 16 replacement trees (in the end I plan 25-30) but here's a screenshot - alot better :

Awesome! Now this looks pretty exciting, that the visuals are pretty amazing now. Not that it was really that bad before...but definately better now! Keep it up!

Edit: Didn't see the tree post. They do look better, but the leaves look a little bit strange. It's getting better though.

Thanks

I'm going to redo the trees *again* because I'm still trying to make them look more realistic, but only 4 of them were done anyway...

The new trees handle the fading system alot better, but since there is the new terrain stuff it doesn't seem like it is needed quite as much, I might lower the distance which they fade at.

In a little bit (maybe today or tommorrow - or the next day ) I'll animate some WW2 weapons from the WW2 media pack and get them in game. I plan on rewriting the entire weapon system - right now it relys on variables controlling kick, muzzleflash ect...

Now I'm going to make it use the same 'gunstate' methond used in FPSC, simple using if staments (or possibly case statments) based on a gunstate variable. Good for animations

Thanks

I've just finished a nice little Brothers in Arms menu (scrolling background) and added FPSC WW2 weapons to test out the new weapon system. There're just temporary, but I'm probally going to use there animations with the WWII weapon pack avaialable on this site (I've had it for awhile).

I've redone all my images in this thread so it isn't streched out anymore

Here's a new one - the new sniper, animated (FPSC Rifle Skeleton) and ready to cause chaos!:

I don't know if you have the sooming feature in yet, but for the sniper, you might want to remove the crosshairs when its being used. That way you need to use the scope to fire accurately.

I'm not who you think...

That is how it used to be, though I've gotten more requests for the crosshair in the past. The sniper doesn't have a crosshair anymore though

I agree that the sky looks very nice!

Find a different crosshair. Someone called "Avenging Eagle" is selling a crosshair pack($3.60 for 40 crosshairs).
