Hi,
I have some more pics from DawnOfMen.
They show the level 'Garad' and the new terrain deformation that the catapults will cause. Its great, when a projectile hits the ground the ground is deformed.
I have also done some great gravity stuff but it needs tweaking, you can jump over walls at the moment but that will be tweaked :-)
I have done some more levels, 2 in fact one is a circular castle one is an 'L' shaped castle.
A lot of levels need tweaking but its looking great!
The catapults coming along nicely
We still need sounds
We still need the AI Pack
Maybe released this summer...

i have no lighting problems but i will incorperate a dynamic light renderer thingy for the terrain so when a deformation is created the terrain is re-lighted
yes they float thats why im doing the gravity

i agree they are way too sharpi have no lighting problems but i will incorperate a dynamic light renderer thingy for the terrain so when a deformation is created the terrain is re-lighted

Just a possible problem.
Looks real good BTW.

you might want to think about limiting the deformation to one or two times per area. I know players will hit the same spot to "dig" big ol pits. The terrain could get steep and people fall in and get stuck.Just a possible problem.
Looks real good BTW.

Thanks!

ah, didnt think of that, the aiplayers might get stuck too. Good idea I will limit themThanks!

ive smoothed the edges and adjusted the gravity settings

But doesn't this result in lighting problems? And what if you shoot away the ground under a building or tree? won't it float?
