Restarting development of Dawnspire (?)

[Sparrisen]

Swiss, I want to say that I love you, for your ambition. Ambitious people, people who doesn't just dream, but actually go up and MAKE IT HAPPEN are few and far in between.

I stick to my quote, from a friend of me: "If you never give up, you never lose"

[Persus]

OK Swiss and anyone else interested I found all these UDK tutorials on youtube.

enjoy

The guy Raven does very simple but effective tutorials. I might even start messing about with it myself.

I also found this programe truespace 3D. A free alternative to 3D studio Max to make and import animated models into UDK I think.

and again there seems to be loads of stuff on youtube

Swiss: What exactly are you trying to do?

[Sparrisen]

He's making the world a better place.

[johan]

I see.

[Persus]

He has this idea, spurned on by a few comments in this thread that he (we) could remake Dawnspire using the UDK. I will leave it up to each individual to judge the merits of this endeavour. Ultimately messing about with the UDK and truespace can only make him a better more well equipped person for the future. I would ask, no implore him to release to the community the AI changes he said were finished before he is swept up and away in such time consuming efforts.

[zezuan]

Yes swiss give us that new bots AI before you start anything new time taking project...

[Swiss]

The AI scripts are available Im setting them up to clientside when I move to my own apartment and get my internet connectio back the next week

Dont be so hasty !^^ And Im just trying to compile the files of DS to UDK .. which I know nothing about. It's just drag and drop styled stuff..

[Persus]

Are you getting any were doing it that way? What type of files are they? I can do some digging online see if I can find any help.

[Nightmare]

I seriously doubt there's going to be any progress if it's just one or two guys working on their own. Not that we've had enough people to state their interest in this topic anyways.

[Sparrisen]

Planescape Torment is the best RPG ever made. The amount of CONTENT, in the form of pure text is ENORMOUS. It's like several BOOKS, crammed together. It also was a flop due to poor marketing and such, so updates were discontinued, and left to the community. I read about the TRANSLATION effort that the community did:

"It took a german group of 20 one year to fully translate the game."
"A similair italian group was done in two years."
"The korean version of the game was completed as a one-man effort."

[Nightmare]

Well too bad we don't have any koreans here .

[Sparrisen]

Actually, I have proof that swiss's mother WAS a korean!

[zezuan]

but then it would be korean game, and those suck haven't you tested one?

[Swiss]

I'm pointing an ETA here now to release all server side functionalities in my server:
6.15.-10.

This will include:
New relic "eye" system
Whole new object detection
as I call it new "Friend of Foe" system: This basically makes the bot time his skills a bit more.. For instance stuns and slows will be available for relic carriers if this and that and so on.
Hard bots: Lower cooldown on all their skills and increases capasity to alot of functionailities.


Something funny I found from my computer:
When DS was still under development I tried to create "Boss fights" Some ppl might remember this ? It's based on couple different maps and I have some weird scripts for bosses already, might just try it at the ETA also - Not gonna work on this!
