:frown:My main PC has just died.....
Now I must be getting too sensible since I am thinking of getting a Core™ i7 3930K Six Core 3.2GHz with a GTX 670 graphics card, but my dad brain is telling me 'why are you buying this?' The CPU is nearly FOUR times as fast in benchmarking, and the graphics card twice as fast.....what would I do with all that?
Then I look at the i3 and think:blarg
I'd like to see what Blender could do with all that though.......:twisted
He he, yeah, such power is really hard to use if u'r not playing any stuffed-with-graphics super games or raytracing a movie or complicated scene xD
Anyway, 2 news for modelers:
- now flying on tracks with mag-strips is available (even if up-side down or loop or what else u can imagine... of course it needs some tweaking but it's good enough right now to this simple things :P)
Also, I'll bring back to life three tracks: "Pashtun Wheels", "Corridon 6" and "Alphard" as they're a good tracks which were just done with wrong software... that makes: 7 tracks where 3 is not completed and 3 has to be remodeled and 1 is playable.
Awesome, zero!!
indeed good job zero :) a question for you about that could I send you my basin park models to test out in the game to debug them? you know before all the textures and stuff is done and they become very hard to change?
Hi, everyone! I was passing by and I saw this topic.
Are you still wanting people for helping on programming stuff? 'cause I really want to help and build a new WipEout game with you!
Welp, yeah... Do you know Java and/or C#? It's also recomended some experience with unity 3D's language.
I sure bet that zero would like some help on the programming, since he's the one who's basically programing the whole game. I can assist on some things but I only know a bit of C/C++, which can't be used on the Unity compiler, so I'm just limited to make the 3D models. Just ask zero3growlithe and he'll probably give you a sitrep on the game's current state.
@zero3growlithe: That's really cool! I guess I can make the drop track I have in mind with no problems!
OK, an update on who's working/helping on the game (If I forget someone please tell me!)
This list is based on stuff that we are almost certain that we'll use on the game at some point i.e. useful things.
This is good to maintain because of the credits when we finish the game.
Active builders (Puts stuff into the actual game).
Zero3growlithe;
Xpand;
OryxCrake;
Creative assistance (ideas for designs, background stories, track/team description, Logos, etc):
F.E.I.S.A.R.
feisar_rocket
docfo4r
TypeProton
Amaroq Dricaldari (I'm still waiting for those teams) ;)
Programing assistance:
Rotational_Aspect
BrunoDG (Let's see what you can come up with) :)
Well, I know just the basics of Java, and I'm trying to learn C# on my own.
You're using Unity? Cool, I'm trying to learn it too.
So I guess I'm just fresh meat on that stuff. Well, it'll surely be a nice challenge!
One question: You put everything here on this topic or do you have some sort of subversion repository or github for this project?
And how will I be able to keep in contact with the other programmer, I mean, with @zero3growlithe?
Dunno,why,I feel like just wanting to give feedback/shoot down ideas.
Eh..I believe that this game is FX-150/FX-200,so you may want to edit the story. Also,androids as pilots? At least Paul Cheung and Alex Reece(if you don't know them,they were pilots of EG-r,and their humanity is very much doubted) were at least part human,but androids? As pilots? For a zero-pilot-death experience? Where is the fun in that? The ship design standards will not improve,rules and regulations will not improve,safety standards will not improve,the whole sport won't improve.Quote:

Although most people here are using Unity, if anyone wants a demo .Blend with the above just ask.
I have made some concept sketches of the side and plan views of a ship/craft that is planned as the "Airbraker" craft that has airbrakes as the primary form of steering,and normal steering as the secondary steering.
Concept #1,with description(Picture only)
Concept#1 on graph paper,with description(Picture only)
Concept #2 with description(Picture only)
I'd like some critique,please,thank you very much in advance
Saw that on DA... Check it out... I left some suggestions there to make it more feasable.
Saw comment on concept number 2. What about number one?
If I was being honest, the design is far to plain to comment on at the minute. The ship has no real shape other than a box in profile as well as from above.
I would suggest (owing to the general layout) take some cues from F1 cars, cockpits and spoilers and mix that in and revise the design.
Sorry if that's a bit negative, to me your designs are solid starts but need much more work.
I had some free time so i thought of this damn guy in Starfox game who is annoying you with words: "Do a barrel roll!"... well, ok, now i can do this barrel roll u'r asking for in SSGX ;)
They aren't unlocked until the FX-200Quote:

Let's get ready to make some science!Quote:

Requesting track summary sir. So I can make track logo in free time.Quote:

Team Name: [BreeTech]

"The Korean Dream Factory", as what they are called, are hungry for victory in this season! An inspiring growth in the nanotech market made this korean company dream higher as they started sponsoring the F9000. After the 2nd rise of the Anti-Gravity League, they saw the perfect chance to get into the FX150 championship but unfortunately, for the mass disapointment of the South Korean Nation, no. 1 pilot, the "Star Saint", Syoung Jung-Moon, suffered severe injuries and had to be immediately retired of the track.
People thought he'd die for the severity of the injuries, but Breetech granted that the "Star Saint" would still be running on the FX200, and this time, they'd crush all their rivals on the tracks. Guess that we'll have to wait and see...
P.S.: Do you want someone to choose something for the bgm or make an original bgm? I think I can help with something =D
Nice, Zero! How did you implement it? I assume you have the roll as an animation, and use a ray to work out if the animation has finished playing before the ship is on the ground again.
Nope, i didn't bother with animation, my script just rotates the ship by 360 degrees from its actual rotation and when no collision was detected while rolling then it waits for the ship to fall on track and boosts it from there :)
