Hi!

Fantastic work! You really pushed b3d to the limit with this one :)

You had me fooled there believing you were using some sort of wrapped external 3d engine. Then to my surprise i read you're only using native b3d mapping techniques.

But I don't understand, doesn't b3d only support 2 channels mapping...0 and 1?

If you are using diffuse, lightmap and normal maps...That's 3. Please tell me how to squeeze 3 into 2! xD

[z4g0VGC]

tnx!

in mesh file .b3d you can put 8 texture layer with different alpha, blend & fx.

yes.. blitz3D support only 2 UV map set.. but are enougth: one for lightmap, and other for textures: Normalmaps have the same UV of diffuse (or normalized with texture scale/move).. and Cube/Sphere maps don't needs it at all)

That's interesting! What about dynamic shadows of the monsters? How did you implement them?

[z4g0VGC]

its a secret... XD

mm no... is only a black cloned mesh of monsters, with alpha & a lot of blurrrr. That 'shadow' is activate only when player use the torch ( the light push the shadow behind the monter... the result is quite real.. but not at all).

[GDL0707]

Oh, I didn't know that B3D supports normalmaps and real-time lightmaps (did you implement them manually?) ;-) And what about reflective floor -- was that a built-in 'Mirror' entity?

What hardware is required to run this with acceptable FPS?

[z4g0VGC]

yep, normalmaps are supported as Dot3 ( textureBlend '4'). lightmaps unfurtnaly are static :( ( generated with gile[s]).

..Yes, floor is "createMirror()" command XD.

framerate was quite good on a'old' notebook's ATI 9700 mobility .

Very cool man! V Cool!

[ChisponGroxo]

Nice game!... Look like Quake 4!!!

[bmcemg]

How did you the blur effect? it's Awesome!

[z4g0VGC]

thanks ;)

btw that was only B3D, except the ODE dll as physics engine.

Is only a bunch of normalmaps, lightmaps & a lot of cubemaps.

the torch fx is a blurred black cylinder in front of camera :P
