| ok! We are now playing around with client version 0.008 and still using our v1.0 server.
New hover model: I finally finished modeling a new hover that will end up in the game. This new design is more slick and looks pretty good. Now I just must take the time to texture it.
New MP3 player: I actually sat down and coded for about 6 hours to get it right. Now players can copy their favorite mp3's into a library. When the game starts it checks the mp3-library and adds them to an array. The player can then use play/stop/next/prev/vol_up/vol_down-functions to play the songs. Observe that only one mp3 at a time are active in memory!
New bullets and collisions: Lavin has worked har on these things and it works good. We have discussed alot about this issue. As this is an on-line game should the server or the clients tell when some one gets hit by a bullet? In the end the best way is for the server to calculate this.
COMING UP! Well the things we will work on now is boosts (speed, health, weapons etc), damage/health. I have a lot of GFX to work on too.

| Well at last Lavin has solved the communication problem that delayed the first playable client. In the newest test version (v0005) an intro, cockpit view and speed-o-meter has been added.
In our next face will add some good looking arenas and weapons.
We have not yet released a playable demo as we think its a little bit to early, but soon we will give all of you a first look. | chimaera Entry: 1 05/14/2002 02:43 PM
| Well isn't computer just great? The answer: Yes, as long as the hardware don't break! My mother board got fried last friday and I have not yet been able to reclaim a new one...So there will be a few more days before more 3D models can be found for public viewing. Im hoping to get a new mother board tomorrow so this mess will be cleared up, as my lead coder (that has been on vacation) thinks I have been finishing up ALL art and models....yikes! :) |
