I don't have that one anymore. It's been changed so much that it has become quite differently by now. It's my competitions entry and since the updates only made it slower and I really don't want to use V1 to enter it, I've changed the level quite a bit. I've optimized it at much as I could and it's running pretty good on all of the RC's now, but it took a lot of work to get it running as smooth as I could get it.
Brings me back to RC7.... I know I made some comments about the problems I'm having, but I didn't really commented on the DarkLights at all. Instead of uninstalling it, I decided to uninstall all of the updates and install RC7 and give it another go.
The DarkLight system is very good, it's a big step forward from the old light system. I had to get used to placing the lights at first, but once you figure that out a bit, it looks great. I've never been impressed with the segments from Model Pack 3, but they look very good when using DarkLights. Aside from the small problems others have mentioned, it's very impressive. It for sure makes FPSC games look a lot more professional.
I'm looking forward to seeing RC8 come and for my competition entry I'm going to use DarkLights for sure. I'm not sure yet about the Commander Josh sequel, but I guess waiting for DarkAI maybe a good idea, but I'm still thinking of entering it into the competition also, so I may build with a more solid previous update. But you never know with RC8 and the final update version, it may well have solved a lot of problems.
Thanks Lee for all the hard work you and Mike (and others?) are putting into all of this, just to give us a better game creation tool.
