Another one trying to make an LBA sequel...

[mad_aeon]

Hi I'm making a sequel of LBa by myself, using Borlnad Delphi and an opensource 3d game engine, the GLscene. I sent some screenshots of the game and the editor I made as an unregistred user, but nothing as happened, this is a bit strange, maybe there are too much people saying they are making a sequel.
Anyway, I started making a map-terrain-actors editor, then the game, creating an AI editor like the one in WorldEdit from warcraft. Now I'm at a good point but.. it takes too much time designing all the objects, anyway I'm finishing the Citadel Island, maybe i'll send some shots. The graphic is similar to the outside of LBA2 (a little bit better, i hope;-) and even the inddor places are in 3d. Well I've said enough.. Let's see what these lba fans will think about it..

[Atresica]

Good luck I'd say

Yes, we've had a lot of people saying they would make something new but never even got close to something

[HomerSimpson]

Good luck, dude.

[mad_aeon]

Hi, ast time I wasn't using my pc to post the message, so I wasn't able to send this shot. More to come...

[Darkflame]

Nice
Engine looks simerlar to the DB's one.

hmz...
If your going to use Night/Day in the game, you might want to check out these movies:

and

The problem with twinsuns orbit is there really cant be "night" as such.
But there can, however, be a brief dark period every time the sun drops low enough.
(bah, the movies explain it).

[Atresica]

Indeed
It's great to see a fan project that actually already has some developement

[Blissful]

Very nice! And good luck.

[Homeless]

Very cool and good luck with your project

[mad_aeon]

Ok, here's another image. I'm working on the editro, a good part of the work is done, but there are so many things to do... Things like making the 3d objects, looking for textures, etc are so time-consuming. I think I'll refine some tools I made so if where will be someone who wants to contribute will be able to do that. maybe next time i'll write what i've done 'til now.. ok i'm a bit tired see ya

[Assassin]

Finally a project witj good progress .
Looks great!

[Homeless]

yeah, looks like this project maybe will become something

[G.A. Zogem]

Wow, great screenies !

For my comment on the project, see HomelessTarget's post.

[ChaosFish]

Cool!

[mad_aeon]

Hi just a quick post today -I'm fully re-designing the edior, from a monolitic program into a more flexible thing. It's so late... well next time I think i'll post some tools for everyone who wants to make some objects for the game -what do you think? this can speed up the making of the game, maybe would give me more time to concentrate on the programming side of the question... Bye ;-)

[HomerSimpson]

Yeh, tools would rock!

Just make it take standard formats like DXF or 3DS.
Theres lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of modelers here
And those 2 formats are the standards.

[kaderoboy]

God, someone's actually made a lot of progress here with a Twinsen model in their screenies, very promising work indeed

Yep, /me is a willing modeller as well, I think quite a lot of us can help you ^_^

[TheMagicalElephant]

That's good, i see you chose to use a ready engine.

--------------

BTW, i made a deal with someone and wait for a surprise soon (Today)

[TheMagicalElephant]

Let's see, uh oh what a desert!

[Homeless]

wow, cool pic

is that LBA3D ??

[mad_aeon]

I don't know what that image of "Twinsen" in the desert was, but IT IS NOT FROM MY PROJECT . Looks just like a (not so good) rendering.

[Atresica]

I think Xakep was so rude to post his own stuff in here

[TheMagicalElephant]

Of chourse its not from your project, and its not a rendering...

-------------

Oh no! They closed that door, how will i get in?

Don't worry, no one is touching your project, and i agree that this twinsen was really stupid . These are some pics i made with my project, some early stuff. Nothing connected to LBA(anymore), the only project that can actually compete(or help, depends on what YOU chose) you, is the LBRA.

Have luck with your project, if you need some help, i am here. I can give you any type of help i can:
Moddeling
Programming
Web Admin/Programmer for Web.

[waho-san]

it seems kinda cool
just for a sec I tought that was a screenie of LBA3D
good luck with the project, dudes
