After seeing that media post by DaApocalypse, and reading a few more pages, this is definitely looking great. This is exactly what a space building gamemode should be.
I agree, and I definitely can't wait to watch the Dev Team create more epic things than it already has.
[I]Keep up the good work! And don't forget to post a nice lil' screeny or video every once in awhile.[/I]

Oh I forgot, the Clientside Planet shells = :psypop: You're amazing
hm.
[QUOTE=DaApocalypse;23378853]Oh and for the record Loki, the planet shells are rendered clientside by the gamemode. The mapper merely sets the texture, atmosphere colour, cloud texture, etc and the gamemode does the rest. We use a custom shader that makes the planets cast shadows based on the location of the maps star. So really, any map made for Frontier should look just as good.[/QUOTE]
Because of this I am now really quite excited about mapping for Frontier. Any other Frontier-specific mapping points or is the rest of it more or less statu quo?
Obviously you are not taking on more people now you have Bynari kicking ass and taking names (as he should) but I and a couple others would appreciate it if, nearer the time of release, you could release some basic info on mapping for the game mode - It would allow there to be more maps available close to release if you give us the basics before hand (even if we cant access the game mode to test them).
I foresee myself pressing F5 in the near future.
I just subscribed to the thread, and have instant emails sent, and I have an email notifier that bugs me. I also have my phone bug me.
No, I'm not that desperate, I just don't have much going on besides work and this at the moment.

Yes, this is planned. But not until we're further into development. (The fgd for Frontier has already been rewritten like 3 times)

Whoever hasn't seen the free mousepad thread in General Discussion, check it out. I'm getting my free Frontier mousepad :D

I made one with all of my favourite work on it. :smug:
Quit outdoing me god dammit.
Ahh damn, never thought of Doing a frontier one.........
.........I guess its kinda similar though

Regardless, that's still pretty awesome.
I can't argue with Mass Effect. When I saw that, all that went through my head was "We can USE this."
Well it was a tie between that and a red alienware logo to go with my new laptop. I've upgraded to play Frontier when it is released :P........no actually, it was so i could play crisis, God I love that game.
Hell yes.
While we're on the subject of M.E.2, Let us remember the SR1...

First video in a while worthy of a man tear. That aside, have any escape pods been modeled for frontier? I've seen what you guys can do and I'm a bit curious.
Sad.
I wish I had that game.

Watched 30 seconds of that video, had to shut it off. I must now not watch media from this game...As i must now go buy it to play.
I hope frontier will not have something like CAF(LS3).
CAF is just a clusterfuck of lua that somehow work.
Its often pain to add custom generators resources or storages.
And since noone is really caring to update LS3 and SB3 anymore I just can look forward to this gamemode.
Also is someone going to take the LS3 models (which arren't that bad) and make them useable for Frontier?
Even Frontier's models are x times better than the LS3 ones its allways good to have a big range of models.
Also I want to give a big thanks ahead... it was(and still is) really time for a revolution in gmod spacebuild.
What you are coding and modelling is awesome everyone who says something different is an idiot.
I think it could be done as an expansion pack sort-of-thing. I think base frontier should not have very much more than it does now, as it will get chaotic and bloated. If there are to be expansion packs, I say they should be officially approved.
Frontier Enhancement Pack yezplz.
And yes, big thanks ahead indeed.
Lolz, "Frontier Addition Pack."
And in this pack, it shall contain, ze waffles of your demise.

Hey, you can't say you didn't start fapping once you first saw Frontier.
Well, my first exposure to Frontier went somthing like this:
/me reads a certain thread.
-generic moment of silence, a cricket is heard- :psyduck:
My eyes! The goggles, they do nothing!
:psyboom:
TL;DR
My head assploded.

Guilty, but I wouldn't necessarily use it as the name. "gotta update my FAP svn."
"You have a subversion client for porn?" See, sounds ridonkculous.
