Self-building buildings. - Developers

Any game has a mass of balancing to be done, not just rts.

Afaik if you are going to make an RTS game, I would rather see it done with a model and animation. Not brushes.

Which means joining me and others in the wonderful world of making models that build themselves. Hand me the gun now, but not the one with the underslung pulse cannon...

Better sounds would definitely help.

I so wanna try that. I just need to become a better mapper.

Hmm... Perhaps make it look more like it's actually assembling itself, instead of just unpacking? For instance... Animated welding arms that rise from the ground, and assemble the building... Good work, though. It's an interesting concept, to be sure.

Some of us aren't cool enough to have animating programs. Or modeling programs. Or Maya. He still did pretty good though. Looks like early RTS building. Starcraft II ruined things for this video.

Not just Starcraft II imo.

Looks like it took a long time.

I think he means you could make a weapons box with the same technique.

wow

You know how expensive this would be on the engine limits, right?

Needs some smoke particles and cranes.

[QUOTE=~ZOMG;24750163]Only thing I can think of is having the player being able to make buildings for money in some sort of RP.[/QUOTE] Buy land > Build building.

It's like an Engineer from TF2 creating building.

Woah. That building is the engineers dream house.
