Re: LAS GUN WIP

@janev, imo the thumbholes in kenan's concepts look fine (they're not as small as in the image you posted) and look better than the pistol grip. I'd like to see a consensus on this, but we shouldn't spend too much back-and-forth on it. I think the question here is much more one of aesthetics than re...

Re: Color grading: a how-to guide

"you'll be seeing your colour grade applied to the entire map" That is so amazing just from a mere screenshot edit... So basically in short, take a screenshot, "colour grade" it, then put it in the /gfx directory of a new pk3. Open Unv and do ]/testcgrade gfx/<imgname.prefix> an...

Re: LAS GUN WIP

From a real world point of view I have my doubts about those handles (#1) with thumbholes in the buttstock. It's just not ergonomic and fast. If you are referring to the shape of the bullpup-style stock, that's something that's been done quite a few times successfully, unless you are referring to t...

Re: Modifying Existing Assets

That's not the normalmaps, that's the specmap. You just need to tone those down. Oh, it's both. It sure as hell is both; I can tell by the pixels. (No, really, I can tell just by looking at the normal map itself that it's bad.) The problem lies in the approach. The normal maps were created using gr...

Re: Resource game reviews

Power/creep restrictions felt really pointless: everywhere people just built an egg/leech or repeater/drill pair -- it felt like I had to build two things for one purpose. My guess is that everyone would be surprised by how much more fun it'd be to not have power/creep at all, but if it has to stay...

Re: LAS GUN WIP

Hey, nice to see something so quick from you! So, on to (constructive!) criticism: I want very much to like this concept, and I do, however, I feel as though the front end of it is a bit eerily similar to the Marines' rifle from the Aliens franchise. This is not necessarily a bad thing as it does lo...

Re: Keyboard layout proposal

How about both good default binds and intuitive interface? Like kharnov said, a better interface is being worked on. When I say "worked on", I mean we're working on integrating libRocket, which would then let us actually get to the part where we make the GUIs and do all that fun stuff, bu...

Re: Programming FAQ

Isn't it called 'QuakeC'? No. QuakeC was Q1 or Q2 (or both, I don't recall). I don't even know why "true" doesn't work yet "qtrue" is its replacement "true" is not defined in C. I'm failing school I'd at least like to learn how to code properly Stay in school! That's f...
