[4E5] Screenshots and Art

Joel Bennett · 2006-12-06T09:57:25

Well, seeing as the 4E5 contest has officially started (and now that we all know what the elements are), I figured it would be nice to have an official thread where everyone can post screenshots of their entries or art from their entries. I realize at this point in the contest there may not be either, but I figured it would be nice to have a place to post them. So... if you feel like posting screenshots or artwork, please post them here. If you feel you don't want to divulge any secrets relating to your entry, then don't post. If you want constructive feedback, or want to show off the lates thing that you have done, post your images here. I find threads like this somewhat motivational. I enjoy seeing what other people are capable of creating, and it drives me to do better. Enjoy!

Ever since school started up again I have barely been able to touch this project, but I somehow still managed to get some stuff implemented. Unfortunately, with each passing day the probability of this being entered into 4E5 diminishes a little bit further.

In the screen shots, you can see:

- Normal mapping
- Bloom lighting
- Multiple per-pixel lights (each robot emits light, as do the projectiles)
- Dynamic soft shadows (all the polygonal obstacles currently cast one shadow per light; the robots don't cast shadows as I found it to be annoying).
- Lava

The shadows still need a bit of work. Particularly having their transparencies fade off appropriately.

I've posted another dev log and video with a weapons demo of a few of the weapons I've added so far.

You can get to it here.

84 more days! (Thanks for the countdown timer Vilio!!!)

sweet! some nice looking projects on here.

updated the map editor a bit, now includes small cliffs you can paint onto the map and some more texture options. for the sake of simplicity i'm not using heightmaps at all nor shaders.. shaders... make my head hurt..

now i'm working w/ details to make the maps look a bit more occupied.

next week hopefully, when everything is implemented i'm going to release this so everyone can help me find bugs and create maps for when the game is done.. that is if i finish the ui, prop apparatus, terrain textures, texture placement apparatus, and of course you wish to help..

cRiTiCiZe, you must!!!

Don't tell me one has to select the correct corner piece manually from the list to do the terrain. You should make it automatic, let user just paint wall and have the terrain system select the correct tiles. It doesn't take long to code and saves a lot of trouble in mapping.

Polish. This image was taken from a real-time rendering in a Game Maker program which serves as the introduction movie for Lions of the Atlantic. ("Real-time Ripples!")

Nah, the terrain placement ( which is just cliffs atm ) can be painted onto the map, everything is automated. Now the terrain textures uses a different set of tiles and I haven't got around to making that automated yet, so painting textures is a bit difficult. I'm working on that now. Might be releasing the map editor "next" week instead of the end of this week. Need to work out some issues. Thanks for the comments. I'll be needing more critisism once I get things more organized.
