DOA - Dead on Arrival

It might be, but like DJ said, it would be difficult to see, unless you had very uncomplicated textures for walls and such, like a simple checkerboard pattern or something.

DOA is being worked on though, I just got through editing and converting 63 images that are going into the game for use with a character which I finally am able to finish, and an item and several little props and things to make the game more detailed.

I should probably post my screen shots on here as well, but tonight I am too tired to mess with it. I'll post all the recent shots when I get a chance or possibly tomorrow.

While I am not done working on the new stuff, I made a screen shot of some of the new additions, but these are only a couple of them.

I made the scientist characters behave like the soldier characters, so that you could observe their motion and what the sprites look like and such.

Plus I killed a couple so you could see their death sequences. When I am shooting at one, near the end of the screen shot, I am actually shooting at two of them, but one is standing in front of the other, that's why it looks like he dies twice or something.

This won't happen in real life, once i get things finished up.




This also shows the two new props I added for detail, the little camera on the ceiling, complete with blinking recording indicator, and the file cabinet, which does nothing. :lol:

Oh and this screen shot, on my computer, looks very close to actual speed. I played around with calc capture's settings.

still no nukes :(

j/k awesome so far :) Keep it up!

I think that person you kill at some point in the screenie should be made so it defend himself when shot tho so it looks more realistic ^^

Thanks everyone, progress has been slow with a capital s lately. It's not dead though, just excruciatingly slow.

I have a ridiculous amount of school work lately. I have to complete 220 code labs on turingcraft.com for my java programming class, each one is a short word problem, and I have to complete them by the end of the semester.

Each one requires around 6 lines of code, give or take a few lines, so it's a lot of work.

Plus my math homework, history homework (I have to read a 200 page book in a few days), and my French work, which is also lengthy and time consuming.

Who would have guessed that I'd spend so much time studying when I went to college. :p

That looks great!  The ceiling looks kind of strange though...

Looks great!  I hope you're able to handle all of your work.

Thanks, I've been handling it so far, I just hope nothing else gets thrown on top you know.

Super Speler: if you look at it for a moment you'll see it's a clear ceiling, and what you are seeing is the stars out in the distance. The idea is that it's a space station with a plexiglass ceiling so that the inhabitants can see outer space if they so desire. I think I'm going to have to put something in the story that hints to that somewhere.

Can anyone else tell that the ceiling is supposed to be stars?
