Re: megaman battle & chase project V2A Released

[T3H PL4Y3R]

A racing Project seems quite interesting, and I might be able to help out with some ideas and some stages. As for stages, I can do Fireman (I started it already) and as for ideas, since Cutman is a basic robot master, hows about a recoloured Sniper Joe's car with a pair of scissors in front?

well, it might have to be more unique but yeah cutters in the front might work, and maby a cutter wing on the back

update on iceman's track

(click to show/hide)

you start in a igloo with teleports

the door leads outside into the spectator area where you can climb on top of the walls and watch the race

and as you can see from m lazyness, its similar to the mmb&c track

do you think I should add the deep pits that teleports you outside of the hole when you reach the bottom?

It should be more road-y with the ice as the off-road bit.

I was thinking of that (not sure how the ice would react to high speeds)

For your ice thing, script it like the ice blocks like GFD's Canaduh map.

[ice]

added the ice, it works perfectly with the hole areas and the accelorator zones, and I fixed it so spectators cant shoot the racers and vice versa.

and regarding the poll above, I asked that question because its posible to make the tracks work both ways but I was asking because mostly, making every single car would be a hassle and not only that, it would require alot of scripting for all of the cars (was also thinking of adding weapons on the track)

I also noticed mass amounts of waverunners caused bad lagg ie. waveman
so basicly I'm asking this, do you want smoothly running races with the setback of cars being skins, or the cars seperate but causing alot of lagg

[Alucard]

Cars being parts of Skins definitely.

[ice]

I'm going to speed up process by doing the rush roadster

[T3H PL4Y3R]

I also noticed mass amounts of waverunners caused bas lagg ie. waveman

bas lag?  

As for the poll, I can't decide which would be better. If we have car skins, then people would run around with them in other stages apart from the race tracks, but if code each car, as you said it would cause quite alot of lag. So as for me, im not sure.

EDIT: Good luck with Rush roadstar, and i can't sprite because I think i would fail badly if I did.

[ice]

For the racing pack, I was thinking of doing some of the stuff in a seperate pk3 like in roboenza (ie. lap counter) I'm not sure if its possible, but I might fix it so the skins are in the pk3 (like I said, I'm not sure if it's possable)

[T3H PL4Y3R]

Hmm, that seems like a good idea.

I am pleased to say that Fireman's track is almost finished. All i need to add is the spectator 'seats', the starting room and the the accelerator strips and the decelerator strips and its done.

EDIT: Fireman's Track is 90% and complete and only needs the accelerator and deceleraot strips. Only this is, I dont know how to add them in.

to add textures just put them into the wad as a PNG and it should appear in game, to see it in doom builder, just save the textures to a folder, then load textures from that. If you ment like adding the scripts to the strips (hey that rhymes   ), I'll be doing that

[ice]

well, the votes for seperate and skins seem to be forever tied, but I have to go for skins, I used the wave runners for the cars and it caused very bad lagg (then again I was using bots so that might of been 50% of the lagg)

Having no lag at all is still better than having just a chance of lag.
