Lol seriously go suicide yourself..

Don't you mean... SUICIZE? 

I would recommend you to check out the newcomers paragraph for sentences right here.


Structure
01. The structure of your sentence seems to say enough that you have the ability to create paragraphs.
02. The wording structure is correct also (good job).

Font
03. The choice of font are fitting their wording (yet there are still a lot of font mistakes), but aren't really fitting the sentence. For example, the "Sans Serif" font isn't fitting for being outside a paragraph. It would fit more in a worded list or an indented paragraph.
This also counts for the "Comic Sans" fonts.

Colour
04. The colour is very basic, but is fitting the sentence. Some more complex colouring would be nice actually because it's all just straight and flat, which is pretty boring. If you added some rainbow fonts to your sentence i think it would be easier to read.

Detailing
05. The detailing is something I dislike from that post. Every area looks very similar to the next area which you read. That's why I would advice you to think about what you would find when reading a post on the internet. Some ideas of my own are to replace certain letters which stand out and swap them for symbols, in effect i would post "5U!C1Z3" for readability and to make it more interesting when reading your comments. It makes it more easier to look better and easier to navigate through. Another idea is to keep several spaces between each letter.

Variety
06. Keep in mind it's not all about the font. To be less vulnerable, fonts have been invented a while ago and really shouldn't be left out in forums.
There are 71 fonts while the sentence is being very symmetrical. What about using all of the 71 fonts for each character of your sentence?

Overall
The sentence isn't bad in first sight, but if you have a bit of a "trained" eye, you certainly can see the font and colours are pretty improper and the font is very monotome. It's not bad for a first attempt though. I'll rate your reply 2/10 for now seeing as you included a picture for effort.

lol

Use a server password...?

bwahaahaha

I see what you did there commrade.

Lol what the hell is a bear splitter? 

I made this quite a while ago... it's nothing special and to be honest it was made using the GIMP and took around 15minutes to do lol. Most of it is just rectangles drawn over the default images in sauer and a red hue.

The main reason for me using this hud is for the console (F11) as it has a very quake3 sort of feel to it
It looks pretty cool (to me) considering how simple it is.

Extract evilhud.zip to your local data folder:
linux/unix =  ~/.sauerbraten/data/
windows = C:\Users\$USER\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Sauerbraten\data\
OS X = ~/Library/Application Support/sauerbraten/data/

Been working on this my nibelheim re-made in sauerbraten map all night, haven't picked it up to edit for a few months (started it almost a year ago now!).

Has alot of diagonal / off-centered geometry, so far it's looking wicked, there's a screeny of the town from the game for comparison below too. When i've managed to get the basic building layout complete i'll be adding the inside of the buildings (as teleport locations so i can build them on a normal grid).

The greyish map is protonic that i cleaned up earlier (renamed it to protonix), added a few ambient buildings and changed several things.


And some random screeny at the bottom;

temple of time i like

i will have to say yes.

Ahh well, there was a Quin on sauer :L also known as Mars :L he was a hacker/impersonator :L My mistake

I caught Mars using 'eihrul' as his name not too long ago too.

Yeh it's a great game and something most of us should be familiar with at mapping, other than a few different keybinds and some improved features it isn't too different from Sauer when it comes to making a map.

The one thing i've noticed that i actually prefer in red eclipse is that maps are better suited with less detailed geometry. You have to consider placement of walls, doors, and slopes being important than what they actually look like due to the gameplay involving agility.

When i first picked it up and experimented with the editing system i think it only took a few hours to remember most of the basics, although after playing on sauer again... i keep trying to wallrun in sauerbraten, using F1 to enter edit mode in sauerbraten and also trying to crouch in sauerbraten ~(fail lol).

As vampi said not long ago about finding some other games to map on (as opposed to being a sauerbraten only clan), i personally think red eclipse is a good choice for something different.

They're some people who seem to be able to make magnificient layouts right off the top of their minds, but some others may be able to make great creations from a more pre planned approach.

Not saying i make magnificent layouts, but that's like me with everything. I never plan anything no matter what it involves... if i try to plan something i just sit there staring into a void and end up dividing by zero 

I've always found i tend to make things up or go with the flow so to speak. Even in art class back in school, everyone else would plan ideas on what to draw for weeks in advance... i'd just scribble a few times until i end up with something workable then take it from there.

I guess that's creative in a sense, but at the same time it can be a gamble to end up with a "result".

The only tool outside of Sauer for making layouts or experimenting i have used is blender, i got a few ideas from playing around with that. As it gives you more freedom to create shapes quickly and easily for example.

But i've noticed on my itouch that some websites don't need a app to have easy browsing for forums etc, ive forgotten the term for this atm.

But ya might wanna look into this first, or maybe make an MH app

I think it's called "smartfit", my sony psp had that as an option in the browser, it moves/resizes a few things such as divs and tables to fit on the screen. I would guess some mobile phone browsers have a similar option.

Some random dude i never seen before said i mapwrecked his 'wall with a roof', i wasn't even touching my mouse and then starts spamming "you're an asshole" while begging you to kick me. I look back at the screen and see that, ofc i'm gunna start raging at him lol.

Looks awesome. I've always loved the detail that suddenly appears with calclight on the grey textures,
Really does bring out the detail.

Unix, Didn't you wen't on a rampage. Lol. You come in and edit broghan stuff. and he asked you to stop and he asked you to stop again, and finally i was forced to spec you. then you went on a rampage. Then you changed your name to [XE]Faghan|L to match [XE]Broghan|L. I have screenshot evidence.

Cool story?
I said to you and you didn't listen, i wasn't editing his stuff. But you kicked me off the server anyway while this guy was repeatedly saying i'm an asshole (i'd had a bad day), and that was before i even changed my nick! Idc if you have a screenshot, i never denied anything. Trolling doesn't work one-way, if that guy wants to make up random lies then so be it, he will get trolled back.

Red Eclipse rules and it uses a sci fi theme. Sci fi is kick ass. Shut your mouth Doom

I've been playing red eclipse quite alot recently (just fragging, etc) but only 2 names i've seen that i recognize from Sauer are quin and calinou lol (of the people i've seen). I agree, red eclipse rules and it kicks ass so hard my butt hurts after i've been playing it (maybe i should stand up once in an hour).

Yeh try installing/building it from here for the latest version of sauer:

>On a mac

Feels bad man.

According to that link you can build the game on a mac. I would guess they offer mac binaries seeing as the post is from 2010.

also here; http://alternativeto.net/software/xonotic/about

Xonotic is a free (GPL), fast-paced first-person shooter that works on Windows, OS X and Linux.

I tried to, a few weeks back when you guys were talking about it before. Although i installed the game, put everything on lowest settings and it was still unplayable for me lol.

All the GUI/HUD menu's were lagging like crazy and i think i had about 5-10fps in game.
I've been saving up a bit of money, so might go and get a better cpu/graphics card soon.

You reckon a nvidia gt520 is decent enough for xonotic?

We can be the Butt Rangers!

Errrrrrr you really sure about that??

Happy yester-day
Complimentary cake;

Remind me what is MinasTirith?

Reminds me of Apollo's map with the face, something like that would look awesome in Sauer alongside some jagged mountains etc.

Something that comes to mind from the two pics you posted, is an icy mountain-like landscape leading into a cave of catacombs where it gradually turns to lava/fire deep on the inside and has some large open spaces. It would be like walking into Hell through a mountainside (mapping hell xd).

We could always continue the dungeon layout we started before and somehow place it inside of a mountain?

Just an idea.

Here's some hilarious ragdoll poses from the other day;

Have been working on the again the past few days, cleaned up alot of areas and moved a few things around, some more detail added to a few rooms and some of the lighting has been improved.
Noticed i had set lightprecision to 16  no wonder the lightmaps were taking up so much room, it's now set to 64 and ther eisn't much visible difference.

Here's a few screenshots (had to increase brightness with gimp). Although i hope to get the lighting identical to the edited image below.
Map/config is attached also if you want to try it out and suggest any improvements. By the way i aslo added some weapon pickups, regen bases, and some temporary waypoints.

I love this map, and i love the theme.

Has to be the most complete texture set within sauerbraten. Reminds me of a larger fanatic_quake (one of my fav maps).
By the way sauce, don't know what happened earlier but my router started playing up and i lagged out / disconencted after 10minutes of talking to myself, thoguht you were afk. Seems my internet screwed up again lol.

Have been thinking about ways to reduce the filesize, as of now it stands at 4.1M with lightmaps.

In most of the rooms on the ceiling trim (red marble-ish texture) notice there are lots of small red lights around the top... i really love the effect it gives although having hundreds of tiny lights seems to make the filesize a bit too big for a regen/ffa map.

Just wondering, does anyone know how to get a similar effect without having hundreds of lights?

I did initially try using a glowmap with the texture to get the same feel, although it only looks "right" if i were to enable

Code Select Expand

bloom 0.8

Is the bloom command something which can be set by a map config on a per map basis?

Man, i cleaned my computer out few days back (should of seen to dust inside it LOL), it used to heat up the whole house. Actually seems really cold since. I know how you and your mittens feel

Maybe you should consider getting an intel processor, they are pretty good for doubling as a cpu and an indoor bonfire xD
