double kirby post!!!

Kirby

too bad some bad apples like to spoil it for the rest

Kirby

this is a good thing, right??? :3

Kirby

A few balancing issues....the enemies thread you to pieces without any possibility of upgrading your own weapons.

I sent them a e-mail....hopefully they get back to me :/

....and no, I don't suck

Kirby

Suprised no one mentioned anything about this game yet...

anyways, looks like a demo of another 6DoF game is avaliable. Will post some screenshots soon...

....and solve some of these problems I am having that Diedel can't seem to reproduce?? For example, the exploding smoke trails and the dumb guidebot.

Kirby

And I thought you wouldn't fix this :wink: I love you even more because of this :P Don't get me wrong, but there is still a difference between the first missle shot, and the second missle shot while the 1st missle is still in the air. The first missle has those explosion decals in the thruster ...

Kirby

What are your thoughts on monsterball? Comments/problems: 1) I think the collision defaults are way too sensitive....the mercury missle sends that ball uncontrollably into the other room in a split second :P 2) Half the time, missle/laser collisions don't even register (lasers mostly have this ...

Kirby

why don't you send all D2X-XL download requests to sourceforge? Save your bandwidth for levels and textures....

kind of like free hosting w/ mirrors

Kirby

I'm trying to think of ways to publicize D2X-XL....cause I'm so bored of being the only one avaliable to multiplay at one time :P Ideas: 1) Slashdot 2) Digg 3) Popular blog advertisements 4) IGN, Gamespy, ect. I already tried Slashdot one time, but my article was not posted (suprisenly *sarcasm ...

Created a new profile....still same ol resolution error

Kirby

Kirby, it is very nice that it only takes so few posts to make you create a useful error description. You could extend the period of nice chit chat with just posting 'something doesn't work here' next time. :P I am a computer science major....too bad I really can't do much now in fixing the actual ...

I was talking about the "Cannot set requested mode on this video card" error

Where it displays that error without allowing me to set a resolution first

Kirby

1.6.136 1) The guidebot is acting very strange. Sometimes it will stall for 10 seconds, then go back to searching normally for 1 minute, then stall for another 10 seconds, and on and on.....and by stalling I mean having it move very slowly in a straight line 2) Resolution menu is still buggy for me ...

Kirby

Still getting that resolution selection problem with 1.6.100....this time I made a video:

Kirby

1.6.90 1) resolution selection in-game is all screwed up now. Changing the resolution from the main menu options causes each and every ratio button to be selected in order, then displays a \"Cannot select requested mode on this card\" error. 2) Opening up any door causes a crash, or the door opens ...

Kirby

I have no issues against light maps, but like that animated picture shows, it has problems with cube lighting. Since all lights were blown out, light maps on should of looked just like light maps off. In general, light maps do help with making the lighting more realistic. If you can fix the problems ...

Kirby

I definitely will

Massachusetts

not worried at all about system requirements

Kirby

Hello....I'm back ^^ back to annoy with my ever-so-detailed bug reports >:) 1) My monitor is very annyoing when it comes to switching screen resolutions. I notice that the pilot selection screen is always at 640x480, then switches to my default 1280x1024 at the main menu. Adding -1028x1024 and ...

Kirby

seriously????

That's odd....D2X-XL, for me, wouldn't start up until I ran one of those rename programs.

could have been file permissions too

Kirby

I should also note that D2X-XL requires all filenames to be in lowercase, yet the D1/D2 installer creates them in uppercase

I will be adding a tool to my XL-Updater that will do this for you, but for now, you can use this:

Kirby

:O my appologies....it has been a long couple of days

Kirby

also....the left and right cockpit windows seem to overlap each other in the center

ugly

BTW....the smoke color you have in 175....perfect!!!! Have it grey when your ship is fine, and have it turn more black when the ship has serious damage to it

also, check the inventory icons: there are 2 afterburner icons

Kirby

I have to say that the new darker smoke is fudgy as hell :/

it's basically a 3DFX enhanced version of Descent 2

I'm having the same problems with smoke, but only if I enable smoking robots in render options. You should disable it.

also: I don't think damage explosions on robots work anymore

Kirby

1) Smoke still slows down FPS to a crawl, even after using the new command line switches. I definitely know it's the smoke causing problems, because disabling the smoke make the game play smoothly 2) The thruster flames can be seen when moving backwards (again?) 3) with the smoke, I don't think a ...

Kirby

Sorry, Diedel, but I think that thruster flame is *UGLY*: http://upload4.postimage.org/22319/nicestuff.jpg they look much better than that with my computer (although, they seem to be in the center of the screen, instead of down a little more, where the engines are. But anyways, still slow as hell ...

Kirby

Got my powerhouse of a machine up and running finally, and took a try at D2X-XL: Athlon64 X2 4400+ 2xSLI GeForce 7800GT 1) you might wanna look at the implementation of the Render Options window again....when I enable and disable some specific options, new options pop up, but they don't go away when ...

Kirby

Will Core Decision use Starforce?

Kirby

The new full-screen graphical gauges need some sort of number value next to it. It's quite hard to estimate how much energy/shield you have right now. It will kinda defeat the purpose of getting rid of the text, but extra eye candy is always better

Kirby

Using the rectangular style cockpit in Descent 1 missions, The energy meter will occasionally flash to "full charge" level briefly as i fire an energy weapon. With level 4 lasers, it seems to happen once about every 10-12 shots in spurts, then the problem goes away for a while, only to reappear ...

Kirby

noticed some palette problems with the inventory icons in a multiplayer game:

oh teh noes!!! a 404 on teh download linky!!

here is another pic of that cube lighting problem.....only seems to appear at the edge of a cube... http://upload3.postimage.org/3666/Clipboard01.jpg ---> menus also seem a little bit laggy when using a custom backgroung BTW...what is the option \"small weapon icon\" used for in the Gameplay Options ...

Diedel wrote:Kirby,

why don't you place the icons at the sides and at the top?

????? I thought I was doing that

I'm sorry....but doing that just makes perfect sense to me instead of making empty space between text

Kirby

The primary weapon icons cover up the multiplayer players score....

having a one line space between the inventory icons is a start, but why can't the text just be on top???

Kirby

How about uploading it somewhere and e-mailing the link to karx11erx at hotmail dot com? -> PM it's not that simple....I have to find a web hosting server to host 100 to 200MB. I have FTP connections with my primary forum NGemu, but I don't wanna waste their bandwidth for my use :/ That's why I am ...
