[QUOTE=Gmod4ever;24145403]So, uhh, Jake, what's the ETA on that video?

You said it'd be coming tomorrow, six days ago.

:wink:[/QUOTE]

Sorry about that. I have seriously been coding nonstop. I want a nice stable version to leave on the server when I go on vacation.

As eyefunk said, why don't you swing by and check it out.

Can't at the moment. Got peeps over, one of them playing CSS on my account (to shut him up; friend's annoying-as-all-hell little brother).

Assuming it's up in approx 2-3 hours, though, I'll be sure to swing by. I'm assuming that, seeing as its a WIP, there is no help yet, so if there is anything I need to know, say it here.

Also, when are you going on vacation, where to, and how long, Jake? :smile:

[jakegadget]

Its pretty easy to get started.

There is a few issues, namely there is one room which is nearly pitch black, so I would recommend you find someone who has an epic weapon to take you through (epics emit a glow based on their element).

In addition, starting off is a little difficult, because I haven't done balancing.

The other important thing is stats:
Dex boosts ranged damage
Str boosts melee damage
Int boost DOT Damage (and ability damage in the future)
Fort boosts max hp and energy, based on class

Don't pick a demolitions since they are useless atm

If you need to change character, for now you will have to rejoin.

Also, going camping, then to vegas after. Probably going to be gone about a week and a half.

Also, Im making a map! We could have some competition! :D:D:D[/QUOTE]

I'll lose probably. I didn't put much detail in to it but I'll try :P

And I might be finished (Version 1) by the time you get back.

So I just played the server, and I got a few things to say:

First and foremost, we need enemy HP bars. That's all there is to it. It's bad enough when you have to spend 3 minutes killing a single crab. We spent a good 15 minutes on that god-damn Antlion Guard, and we never did kill it - our party ended up rage-quitting.

Another thing is, WHY DOES EVERYTHING DROP SO MANY DAMN ROCKETS? :v:

Other than that, this was the only other problem I saw:

[img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8416055/infinidungeon_test0001.jpg[/img_thumb]

All in all, I'm liking what I'm seeing. You obviously still have a lot of work to do, but it's coming along nice.

Also, crabs are fucking impossible to shoot - I always end up beating them to death with a crowbar.

[Zombie Strider]

Yeah still balancing it out he said but when I helped him test when he got his high level stuff and I went up levels real fast (Got to level 16) Then it was easy. Had my fire pistol, was takin' out guys real fast. And yeah sever is buggy, got dropped from it after a dungeon.

[redx475]

Heya Jake. Great ideas as always! Just ask if you need help!

[jakegadget]

Thanks for the feedback!

The current version on the server is a bit dated as I am still trying to do damage control on [url=http://www.facepunch.com/showpost.php?p=24149684&postcount=1879]this[/url] problem and have not had time to update it.

The dev version already has healtbars, among other things.

The rockets are from the very first tests, when we had rpgs. I haven't gotten around to removing them.

I'm reluctant to do too much balancing as of now because I still need to add two more items that will make players significantly stronger.

Now I'm off to vacation, I'll try to fix it all when I get back.

[Eyefunk]

Progress.

Texturing needs a shitload of work, I know.

[robby]

At post above, that is [b]beautiful[/b].

[Eyefunk]

Thank you very much! Its the lobby for the map :D

[Gmod4ever]

I joined the server, and the game stopped working.

:saddowns:

[thomasfn]

The brush work is fantastic, but I can't really judge the lighting until you fix the textures.

[editline]09:28PM[/editline]

By fix, I mean replace.

[Eyefunk]

You dont really like the textures Thomas?

[thomasfn]

[QUOTE=Eyefunk;24164964]You dont really like the textures Thomas?[/QUOTE]

Nope, I really don't. I mean, the marble thing will fit and look right [i]somewhere[/i], I'm sure, but it's so overused I can't even see what works and what doesn't. If it were me, I'd reset everything to dev textures and then work from the ground up, using custom textures where possible. It needs to have variety.

[editline]09:54PM[/editline]

Here, I butchered the 3rd image:

[img]http://www.fortfn.co.uk/images/stuff321.png[/img]

The areas inside red circles show specific bits I don't like much. Hopefully I made it obvious what I mean. But also in general, whilst the some textures fit well and would look good on their own, when combined with the fact every other face has an almost identical texture just makes the whole thing seem... dare I say it, ugly. Alot more variety and custom textures where possible will go a long way, believe me.

I do like the lamp models though, and I'll say it again - the brushwork is amazing.

[Eyefunk]

Alright, I will fix that after this next update:

EDIT: Fixed textures, removed old outdated ones :D

My god I was so right.

I will lose this 'competition'
Anyway good luck with that.
And Thumb dem images.

[ChronoMagus]

my god that is a beautiful lobby i hope the rest of the map looks half as good

[Zombie Strider]

This lobby is so much better than mine.
Gonna make me drop my map for lack of self confidence :saddowns:
Seams a little extravagant (Maybe just the marble), for a game where you spend most of the time in the various dungeons you will have.(Naw I'm only trying to find criticism to make my map seam less of a waste)

Wait will you keep the same theme for all the dungeons, or have a broken palace thing going on?

I have no idea about mapping but I hope that's fixed enough because it looks fucking awesome.

What sort of style are you aiming for with this lobby? The brushwork is solid but the textures appear as if their confused about what sort of style their supposed to be.

[sniperlover]

The server isn't working

[ChronoMagus]
