:eek: Awesome! :thup:

You should make the buildings bigger, because right now, they're pretty small. Those robots wouldn't be able to fit in one room? :D

mh...full voice acting in cinematics!?
I would expect a big filesize then,50+ Mb?.
And do you use a specific program to make the robotic voices?

Not only in cinematics, but during the 'action' too. Rian sometimes comments his actions, and also there is the unit sound set.

It will be bout 40. I'm trying to lower the file sizes to minimum, however quality won't really suffer it's effects.

Well yes it is a program... :)

Wow thanks dude! :)

Truth is I don't really have time to work on it these days. I've been working on the abilities recently. Most of these are finished just like the terrain and the opening cinematics of Deep Water. I'll upload some more screenies soon.
Thanks for the bump man! :shades:

I'd have done it sooner, but all those requests are piling up like water in the pasific ocean and I've also been working on my map, so I guess I forgot a bit abot this project :p

Well, since it is taiking so much time, i'd just advice you after the end of the missions, if your main character is still alive, you shloud be anle to go arround the levels killing creeps, searching for hidden stuff and so on.

You should know that in my campaigns the story is the most important part. I don't want to make this one kinda creep killin' insanity. The idea is good, but for a story based map it doesn't fit. However I'll give you the opportunity to feed your killing desires in the upcoming AOS I'll put together. :shades:

Thanks for the comment! ;)

I think he got banned so I went to his user profile and didn't see him online or he hid his online status.

I'm here don't worry! I just like to hide myself when I'm online. :eek:

Wise man speaks little! :eek:


Status Report please...

I'm f***ing with the abilities dude... So far I have 18. I need at least 2 more. Some basic triggers are also missing, and I can't continue makin' the quests and etc without them. :rolleyes:
Don't worry! I'm working hard on it (when I have some freetime)!

Yeah, I know what you mean... I mean to complete a map that doesn't su*k you must go through a nightmare of object editing, triggering terraining, and when you think you are done you must balance, clear leaks, finish the terrain...

Heya!

It's not a bump! Just wanted to say I'm still working on this project hard. I have almost every units and abilities ready, and some cool new ideas to make this map more exciting. Umm that's all I think. I'll update the first post after I figured out how many chapters I'll need to finish the story. :p
Hope dies last! ;)

I have to say, this looks absolutely fantastic. I can't wait to play it. Are there are other maps like this that you've made? If so, I would like to play them. This looks awesome.

Hey guys!

I had to work a lot recently (in the past 1 year), but now I'm happy to inform you that I'm back in the WE business again! ;)
I decided to start the whole project over. My first reason of doing this was I did not like the old AWC's plot and concept, the second was the competition. There are so many great looking new maps out there it's really hard for me to keep up the pace. This third episode of the Dreamlord series will be my last project, so I will do the best I can to make it awesome. It'll contain all systems and ideas I made/had during my 4 years WE career, boosted with more advanced terrain, full voice acting and much longer game time.
I will give AWC to you in pieces. The first release will contain a tutorial map and the first chapter. Together, they'll offer about 2 hours of gameplay. Note that these alpha phase maps will be linked only in this thread, which means you won't find them at the Hive or w3campaigns or anywhere else.
I'm gonna update the first post with more information about campaign later.

GL&HF! :)

    that sucks i bet they are expensive
  • Varine Varine:
    Not really
  • Varine Varine:
    The entire hot end is like 20 dollars, I just can't get anymore until next week
  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
