Overgrowth Alpha 145 changes - Wolfire Games

[nothGhost]

I still don't get how they can have better blood effects that 99% of AAA games available out there...

[ithrowfeces]

I want to play as a kung-fu, weapon using bunny!

[Soulshatter1989]

n33d :) gogo guys! looks really awesome!

[TakSuyu]

Saw this, bought it instantly..

[TheGnurgen]

god damn this looks impressive with the bleeding, and also with the weapons i saw in another video, where you can throw your knife and hit with the handle for very little damage and no cutting. very impressive indeed...

[ArmoredChocobo]

is there anything done about the control schematic?

I've played Lugaru and found it way too clunky and unforgiving to tolerate.

[Dealer486]

Man I don't have this blood effect even I have alpha 169!

[sappinmahsentery]

@DannyEastes No, I just want more variety with a game than "herp derp rabbits "

[BenjaminBattington]

@sappinmahsentery

There are also wolf, dog, cat and rat races.

Also, by your own reasoning you wouldn't buy a game that just had humans in it.

[DSBrekus]

@BenjaminBattington herp derp humans :D

[MiniMackeroni]

@BenjaminBattington Rat? woot.

No sarcasm. Really, it's rare to see rats as playable, even if they're Anthropomorphic.

[kavkazip]

Would be cool to have a bow and arrow in this game.

[sappinmahsentery]

I'll buy If there's a human race.

[DannyEastes]

@sappinmahsentery You'd buy it if it became more generic?

[ThePistolero909]

so fucking brutal

[MrSquid21]

At first I thought this game was about boring stuff and horrible textures... Then I saw the development vids.

[chabi3000]

At first i was like what kind of furry pussy game is this and then i was like BLOOD ?!? ME GUSTA !

[spider853]

What happens when blood gets to the edge of the texture, does it loops around?

also do you transform the points from the texture space to the world space to apply gravity?

And finally, what happens if some polygons has overlapping texture coordinates, how to TexSpace to WorldSpace will choice the point.

Thanks

[xxSFoxRxx]

@spider853 watch the alpha 128 video

[spider853]

@xxSFoxRxx Yep I saw all the videos, I understood the per triangle one. but I don't understood per textel technique in this video.

[FugaziCharon]

Jesus fuck WHY CANT BETHESDA DO THIS? WHY? WHY? Ugh regardless, I hope this goes far..

[Regginyaga]

Why is so uncommon for developers to focus on depth?

Its so much more rewarding

[LakoonPlay]

I don't know why but that engine looks sooo like Source

[buckledkiller]

@LakoonPlay lol no

[Crazychris902]

Will this game have like a story mode or just maps?

[Geersart]

This is so badass!

[HorridiusArcaneMage]

Wow this is some insane blood effects.

[overdozed1337]

Too bad my comp probably wont run OVergrowth :( I Would preorder right now if i knew it would handle it :P You should make it to xbox and ps3 :D

[Zoran54321]

@overdozed1337 The good thing about PC is that it's independent, so you don't need to kiss lots of corporate ass in order to get a license to sell it on consoles. I think it should stay on PC

[Djentard]

@Zoran54321 What i also love is that they are making this game for Linux and Mac too, not only Windows. I've always wanted to test Linux out (for a longer period of time), but i'm a gamer so i've been pinned to Windows y'know.

[MrTJK86]

@overdozed1337 NO! NO NO NO NO!! If they make this on consoles too then they have to dumb down the craphicks, bleeding effects, smaller maps etc. :]

[vkyle52]

@MrTJK86 I don't see how that will affect the PC quality, though. They could focus on the PC THEN dumb down the graphics for the console port.

[scullyy]

M&B combat in this engine... tasty

[KantorekBaumerB14]

this game could be an amzing rpg

[whinemax]

Does anyone know if there is like a campaign with story or just levels and / or challengs, or if it just like random fights?

[MaddTheSane]

@whinemax The game will probably have missions, or at least a story. Probably better than Lugaru's.

[CoreDumped2082]

looks amazing. mind telling which tech was used?

3d engine, physics engine, audio etc? Thanks

[MaddTheSane]

@CoreDumped2082 The tech used is their own made Phoenix engine. It uses OpenAL and OpenGL, with Bullet as the physics engine.

[zirius89]

briiiiiiiiiiiiight eeeeeyes,burning like fire..... ^^

[BlackMesaHawk]

This must be a female rabbit at 1:24

[Shad0wack]

This looks like it will stress my pc alot.

[234234234werrrrrrr]

furry?

[kwarstadt3]

Whoa o.O. Das cool.

[Porsche918]

At first I was like, "WHAT IS THIS FURRY SHIT?"

Then 10 seconds later I was all, "I LOVE THIS FURRY SHIT!"

[wowwow978]

is this related to lugaru?

[MaddTheSane]

@wowwow978 Why yes it is! Overgrowth is the sequel to Lugaru.

[coveryfire]

lol what the fuck? rabbits with spears?

[mak10z]

WOW, this is Impressive.. Not a fan of the bunny on Bunny violence (im a Rodent lover, dont like seeing them hurt :p) but your Tech is awesome

[ElrondMcBong100]

how can i disable the ai like in the video?

[DjTeZac]

OMG the blood, better than most of the games out there :o

[st3v0011]

don't mess with the easter bunny

[thexoor]

I want to rip his engine apart. I would make beautiful love to it as I absorb its brain fluids.

[wakkanda]

take my money

[MrHeyImyou]

The last kick in the beginning was epic as shit.

[TheR3aPeR21]

Hey Guys In Wolfire I Reccomend Adding Like a Super Move That You Can Use Once IN a Level Like a Blast or a Fatality Britality Super Blast ETCIf U Add I SHALL Be The 1st One At The nearest Store To Sell Tht Game

[bennybear13]

yiff in hell

[AfroSnackey]

Wolfire > Nintendo

[hamburgermiam]

This games looks awesome i hope that a lot of people will buy it so all of the creators will recive the amount of cash they diserve

[TheFuzzyBlanket]

I can see it now "this week I'll be showing the updates from overgrowth alpha 408, I've been working on giving the animals souls."

[JustAnotherGaian]

We should try to keep Overgrowth from becoming a yiff fest, and the butt of yiff jokes.

[suprateam72b]

can you play this with a regular windows laptop

[MaddTheSane]

@suprateam72b Depends on what you mean by "regular windows laptop." It runs on both Windows and Mac, with Linux coming up.

[xZOOMARx]

So I know this is just in alpha, but an Avatar: the Last Airbender mod would be totally kickass

[fpsjo3l]

GITONGA

[dafullymadmontagezz]

@fpsjo3l no



[ManlytearsUK]

yiff yiff yiff yiff yiff yiff

[DrFlippers]

@ManlytearsUK

Go back to /v/ manly.....

[ManlytearsUK]

@DrFlippers

Butthurter yiff yiff yiff

[10lettername]

@ManlytearsUK

No, stop it.

[robcio150]

Maybe you should give free lugaru copy for everyone who buys Overgrowth?

That game is good, but kinda expensive for indie game, so i think that'll be a good option.

[andrzejoholik]

Znowu wstyd za polaków

[PLlumen]

Do you planning to release it on PSN and XBL?

[Duncun506back]

Looking very very good... i try to buy this game buy zloty (poland dolars) Sub and waiting :)

[Astinek123]

Kto od Gnomka łapa w gorę

[wojak335]

kto od gnomka

[pivetom]

1:08 the blade barely hit him and the cut was automatically created! you should do something about it.

[GuanoTheGamer]

my favourite programmer, nuff said, my favourite game, nuff said, rabbits, nuff said

[youkill3r]

Wow, this game is fantastic, I'll fap to this game.

[vlad007001]

make a option of dismemberment i men you go to option and you toggle on or off dismemberment

[xalener]

@vlad007001

They can't make an option if they haven't put in the time to implement the feature. It's not just a switch, there's a lotta work that goes into that shit. Personally, I hope they do it. But not in the conventional Gears of war fashion. I want to see a more "classy" dismemberment. Something more complex than "bone shrinks to 0 and limb object spawns"

[xXEduBuntuXx]

linux is still not supported! ...

[micha90210]

wish there was an open world instead of levels

[littlebighappyness]

plz make a fullscreen option

[bgatz008]

Oh my god this looks amazing.

[Y3NZ0R]

This engine has the best combat ever.

[BeezOne84]

You guys should do some kind of "final" animation for enemies, when they defeat you. May be they should check the body or something like that?

[Slider2k]

cute aggressive rabbits

[AproposOfMe]

0:12 Shaolin soccer?

[Alrold]

I really engoy lugary I cant whait 4 the new one .

[ShadoShade]

It's amazing on what like 4 guys can do, and what giant companies don't even bother to try...

[MasacruRo]

will this game be modable?

[Bealhorm]

@MasacruRo yes, it already is if you preorder

[MaddTheSane]

@MasacruRo Yes, the game will have mod support out of the gate. In fact, you can mess around with the engine with mods right now.

[MasacruRo]

@MaddTheSane man i can't wait for it ;o I hope it comes out by the end of winter u think?

[Mephistin]

Oh man, this is gruesome, I love it!

[andrey9797]

Epic.

[zidanetribal00042]

holy shit you are a boss at this.

[windarr]

Wow. Sometimes I wonder, when is this game ever going to be done, but then I see something cool like that. Nice work.

[wekhter]

At 1:26, the blood from the wound on the guard's crotch squirts all over Turner's crotch... it's kind of weird. p_p

[Paindefender]

Best Game EVER!!!!

[Resus4ur]

This game would be awesome if it had dynamic dismemberment.



[Digitalwolf333]

what the hell, if it was that 'easy' why don't more games do this?

[Tutorialandgamplay99]

What about the character?

[Tutorialandgamplay99]

The Main Menu yes! that's the way i waiting for.

[JustAnotherGaian]

After Overgrowth is released in all its shear awesomeness and and enjoyed by many and such, I do hope they'll develop other genres of games using the engine (or later versions of it), or at least let others do so.

[Mekose]

@JustAnotherGaian The entire engine is open source. I don't know how they would handle full on payment games, they might set up some licensing deal down the road.

[pivetom]

how about fixing the insane lag and stutter ?

[mrbear912]

@pivetom It's an alpha... Had you missed that bit? ಠ_ಠ

[druidenis]

does someone els have the same problem as me? i cant stop watching this video is it either the game is epic or i love to see the bunnys bleed or both?

[druidenis]

1:42 did he just get kicked it the nuts?

[GOOB3000]

@druidenis lol. that didn't sound nice :(

[Bionuker]

You are my favorite programmer. I'm so glad I decided to pre order.

[korvbollar]

This + Left4Dead 2 ellipsoid wound model technique = best. game. ever!!!

[creopictures]

I have seen a lot of blood in a lot of games, and this is the best so far. Amazing work dude.

[mattlohkamp]

the blood effects on the piercing weapons are brutal. that is impressive.

[MrPatriot3312]

I want to pre order this game, but it so expensive. Most indie games cost 10$, but not 30$!

[yzbi]

@MrPatriot3312 This game is a lot more ambitious than other indie games, in my humble opinion a games' cost should reflect it's quality and in this case, especially since it's an unfinished game, I find this game more than worth 30 bucks, especially considering big game studious like Bethesda and ID putting a 40-60 bucks on their games.

[VanCan23]

Will this overcome the current Source eng? i think it has already...

[Dude902]

I thought these blood effects were already better than anything similar in any game and then you go and upgrade them even further. At this rate you'll probably start including internal organs and create a full-fledged hospital simulator.

[BlitZWTF]

@Dude902

I lol'd, it could be a minigame.

Operation! REALISTIC BUNNYRABBIT GORE EDITION!

[DaGreedyGamer]

I don't know if anybody knows this but to find a specific comment (such as LE0NSKA) just go to see all to the top right of the comment box and then ctrl+f and then type the name,Easy!

[dangdiggidydog]

i think it would be cool if they added some decapitation effects when the the rabbits gets slashed when they're about to die

[TheEye114]

@dangdiggidydog Gore and severing would be awesome in general

[jpowt1]

next update add the dog knife? and takes 10 attacks to torture them or somthing :) haha that will make me pre order it

[bithmar2]

FUCK YEAH! Its not a new week until the alpha changes are out.

[UberLithen]

I think the ragdolls need more weight behind them, like at 0:16 when he hits the tree...looks to soft imo.

Everything else looks great!

[l2enegadesofFunk]

Finisher kick at 0:15 is AWESOME.

[Nmb910]

Almost all of my subscriptions uploaded a video today. D:

[rekindledphoenix]

It amazes me how much amazing detail you put into something like the blood effects... and yet other AAA games haven't even tried.

Per-texel (spelling?) blood effects FTW!

[d123s404]

I like how key words such as "placeholder" are not missed by the Overgrowth community. I've seen many WIP projects that get people saying stuff like "i hate that screen" or whatever even though it's clear that it's a placeholder.

[mmb199466]

i have a question on the environment.. qhere did you modeled the mountains and all that kind of stuff.. does it come with alpha?

[arkatub]

@mmb199466

they are made in a free program called L3DT, google it.

[arkatub]

@mmb199466

scratch that, they use "World Machine 2", these apps just export "height map" data.

[WillP999]

It's nice to see the progression of one individual feature. I remember when you were saying that one day you would make the blood per texel rather than per poly, and now we are here!

[muffinsdotexe]

the blood on the characters is WAY too opaque. it looks like red paint

[KaimanaC]

Many, many more games need to use this method of visualizing wounds.

[MatriXtyle]

@KaimanaC Don't be ridiculous man! All of them do :)

[Ebosan87]

@KaimanaC

They don't because of memory footprint, things like this take up memory and with consoles having so little of that and most PC games being developed on all platforms, you can kind of understand why things are the way they are ...FOR NOW.

[Mekose]

Seriously, this blood technology needs to be applied to Mount and Blade.

[pincopallino36]

Those blood effects... they are.. are...

More blood for the blood god! more skulls for his skull throne!

[ytje]

Now I need to find LE0NSKAs komment -_-

[LE0NSKA]

@ytje what?

[ytje]

@LE0NSKA

check the top-reated comments.

[Nyocurio]

@ytje Ctrl+F is your friend

[ytje]

@Nyocurio

I know but its still annoying

[unleashed68alx]

@Nyocurio what is ctrl+F in overgrowth ?

[CrispyGFX]

Oh my god, the blood effects are so cool!

[gamer10101]

I'm real suprised no has made a "Happy Juice" comment at 1:23 yet...

[IceTehFurz]

For those asking about dismemberment; keep in mind how difficult this would be to achieve. He would have to separately differentiate how the limbs would be dismembered based on where the body was hit, and he would have to attempt to make the dismemberment act identical based on actual bones. The amount of time to efficiently do that would be absolutely massive. Give him time. He may do it, but don't expect it soon.

[GOOB3000]

@IceTehFurz Tbh. It wouldn't be difficult for David. This is David remember. I just don't think this game needs it.

[IceTehFurz]

@GOOB3000 I know this, and he is absolutely an amazing person for what he's done so far. But dismemberment would be difficult for anyone, no matter how amazing they were. Getting things to break, bleed, and look the right way when hit at a certain angle would be damn hard.

[RealationGames]

@IceTehFurz

It's not really that hard to achieve basic limb dismembering. Character just needs hitboxes to determine which body part was hit and scale that limb and its children down to invisible, then unhide splattered end and create physics object for the cut part. If weighted vertices are supported by the engine, which they are in this one.

Making advanced dismembering according to slice angle and placement is whole different deal though, and has only been done in MGS: Rising

[IceTehFurz]

@RealationGames Considering the progress and situation of the game, that's more what I was considering (the advanced version, of course), since if it were to be too simple it would throw some of the things off and how they look, especially in slow motion where detail is crucial.

[RealationGames]

@IceTehFurz

I wouldn't count that it will be done, it's a highly advanced technique that hasn't really been used anywhere real time, as I said, only in MGS Rising (watch?v=FMdu_dUzjfE). Although maybe, as David does a lot of incredible stuff that has never been done before.

[Hoboparty]

Impressive as always.

[BassPounderX]

Ok so instead of making the blodd more optimized you make it more detailed wtf i get leik 75+fps just fighting btu as son as 3 ai bleed i get 5fps it needs to be seriously fixed not add more detail

[oziwhite]

@BassPounderX i dont get that when it happens the fps is fine for me, maybe its your computer

[BassPounderX]

@oziwhite my pc isnt slwo it runs crysis and stuff just fine with win7 but im sure this guy is making the game with a high end quad core or somethign its when alot of ai bleed or there is alot of ragdolls just needs to be optimized

[oziwhite]

@BassPounderX ah mine can as well with 7, i remember him saying somewhere that he will optimize it more soon, maybe when its fully released, so quite a while then. i did get quite a lot of lag when i had 4 people bleeding at the same time but thats probably normal...

[BassPounderX]

@oziwhite hmm maby but i hope he fixes this before the final relsease ecause that will be pretty annoting and make it pretty unplayable i look forward to this game

[oziwhite]

@BassPounderX yeah same, mind you people wanting dismemberment will make it even more laggy, if he does do that he better optimize it before then

[BassPounderX]

@oziwhite man this si gona be a fucken badass game if he adds that but i think weapons are to overpowered i think they shoudl get advice from the cimmunity and stuff maby add some range weaons too but wolfire is the best props to them

[oziwhite]

@BassPounderX well if you think back to lugaru when 2 people fought with swords you could block eachothers i think and if all the weapons in the item box are made properly you may be able to throw the knife, that would be cool

[BassPounderX]

@oziwhite Damn strait LOL

[tokyomage]

just a quick question, how do i fullscreen the game?

[TheStickfigureCO]

@tokyomage Find the config file.

[IceTehFurz]

C:\Users\%YOUR USERNAME%\Documents\Wolfire\Ov­ergrowth\Data\Config.

Config will be in a text document. Open it, and where it says "Fullscreen: false", change it to "Fullscreen: true".

[MrBeaach]

guys give a thumbs up for ip man moves(wing chung) to be included as a fighting style
