Revised our material syntax from... { { // Scrolling texture test //$scroll_x 0.3 //$scroll_y -0.3 $map_diffuse "textures/default" $map_detail "textures/detail/concrete" } } To... notexture { // Let's the engine know to keep this in memory. $flags "PRESERVE" // Add a sk...

Little updates on the material system I've been working on for OpenKatana. Materials can support both global settings (which apply for all skins within the material) and local settings (which apply for just one single skin). Scrolling textures Controlled through two local functions; $scroll_x and $s...

I understand this is being built upon the Doom 3 BFG version of the engine? Or have you used RBDoom 3 as a basis?

it doesn't look like something Romero would design... We're not interested in producing something Romero would design, otherwise there would be the AIDS research centre, Christmas themed bonus levels inspired by Super Mario 64 and a bunch of other silly nonsense, just to name a few of the design id...

Eukos implemented this for OpenKatana sometime ago, might be worth digging through our code to see how it was done.

I believe it's all within a function called View_ModelDrift.

This is a model that Marco has been working based upon that concept art, and all the other weapons will eventually ha...

I still think that a clean and working code can be done even in quakec. Clean and functional code is definitely possible with QuakeC, I don't doubt that. I don't think there's anything necessarily wrong with QuakeC in its own right. But I think for us, we primarily felt there were more benefits in ...

I still find odd that you get rid of quakec for a c-based gamecode though (imo quakec is the best thing of quake engine 1! :D )but, of course, you'll have your motivations! http://oldtimes-software.com/blog/archives/269 Finally got round to finishing a post that covers our reasoning a little, or ma...

Currently working on integrating our material system with the new rendering pipeline and adding support for detail maps.

I couldn't find some answers in the blog: Is this a remake of Daikatana? Yeah, sorry about this, we plan on setting up a website to give some better details about the project at some point but you're not the only one that doesn't fully understand the project (I think even Romero himself isn't entir...

Have surface flags or shaders been considered for the new bsp format? Transparency, flowing, etc. The crate spacemap looks awesome. We've got a material system in the works (which works exactly the same as Quake III's "shaders"), but our BSP format currently won't account for materials ri...

Here's a quick update; we're releasing a multiplayer alpha very soon, either Christmas or early next year, we'll see. I hope some of you will be able to check it out, we'll probably have a server up for a few days and do a little marathon or something. Anyway here's a few little snippets... http://m...

Just some stupid crap I've been working on, not expecting to get anywhere with it any time soon.
