Really pissed of right now, this would have been a great thing for the industry here, develop say they have several good sources that this is true. Was bad enough when they announced it wasn't happening......
Over 100 Games on sale from today..... 75% off loads of titles
Was ok, spent far too long on some of stuff at the end. That said it was a strong start and the new 360 looks cool.
Really, really enjoyed it not often I want to see a mod though from beginning to end. The bit where the body is stuck upright at the end of the corridor scared the shit out of me, I was shooting away and thinking wtf is it, before I realised it was dead.
Thanks,
I have since made the mall into a proper evac center, both inside and out. Will post shots of that later. The sleeping bag was actually an ammo box but that whole area has been changed as I said above. As for the bridge, the idea with it was there was a foot bridge under construction before the out break. What I have done how ever is add in a crane that is clearly being used to build it and in general make it look more like a construction. In addition To other things, a lot of the roadblocks are now more fitting now too.
Will post shots of that later too.
Thanks for the feedback

Quote from Skjalgyeah actionscript is a good idea too.We might be derailing the thread abit with this discussion, but you mentioned you had done some webpage stuff. Did you ever try object oriented php?
Na I haven't done a lot beyond basic HTML, I can more or less put a site together in notepad that fits my needs but didn't really go beyond that.
Objective c is object-oriented though? Unless I am getting confused.
Yea some of it does look shitty. Think I will spend tomorrow working on that stuff and get a break from the fing nav stuff. Have some new fog effects going too which are looking nice but needs a bit more work.
Thanks and thanks again for the link
It's going pretty well so far 
, I want to do a few games for the iPhone, simple 2d stuff. That said there is cocoa on top of that once you get to grips with objective c.
Anyway should be fun
Wasting my time learning Objective C then?
Thanks, I think I am making progress on it this morning.
Quote from Skjalgsounds like you'll have fun
Quote from Senturaare you new to programming?
Yep, well depends if you count HTML and I have tired bits with other languages in the past.
just saying, there is a limit to what one book can teach you about programming.
yea thats true, this one assumes I know f all about it and this is my first language which is what i was looking for to get going. Want to get going with unreal script as well at some point in the summer. I have soooo much free time now.

Objective C book and Apple Developer membership. The membership was not strictly needed right away but, its an extra intensive to get going.
Update time, partly because I want to ask for help. For some reason the nav just can't draw the dots between the start and the end of the level. God knows why at this point as I have tired everything I can think of even doing it from 0 several times and it did all work before all the changes. I would say there is a dam clear path from start to end, the ai follow it no problem. But still the nav error pop's up every time that the map is unplayable. Any tips would be helpful.
Anyway, some new screenshot's I don't think i have quite covered everything people said about the map (some are not clear in the shots) and I have changed the lighting a lot but still working on nailing that down, along with many other things. Parts 2 and 3 where very early and I am re designing them from scratch, i can see they would have the same flaws all over that people pointed out and where not that interesting at all.
Fog is a little harsh me thinks, want to have some interesting lights in the background.
you do now get to go down into the dark area at the start and climb up a man hole and the restaurant at the end is now a bar type club, got some much cooler stuff going on in there. You can see the man hole and its a square for now as I took away the prop in a effort to see what was not working nav wise.
Thanks

Feels a little Blade Runner at points. Looking very cool.
Love you stuff will be back to look though it as some of it looks really cool. My issue is the background and the background for the main content are both the same, can make it a little difficult to look at but that could be just me.
Yea but if you look at Valves games anyway, there is a steady stream of good stuff arriving for them.
