Will it run on Linux?

Looks really nice though Also, it would be nice to see some comparison shots with RIM enabled and disabled.

cant wait!

[Acumen]

yah well, i just dont have that flash thingie installed, neither do i want to do so

but anyways the west shot looks very cool again

prefering this kinda over snow atm

[e-freak]

Do these rocks already have a normalmap? because they look very flat and a good normal map could help a lot (see TF2).

Anyway: Great looking!

[zaphod]

no, there is actually no lighting being done on the scene, so a normal map wouldn't do much unless we decided to add lighting into the calculation. Right now everything is baked vertex colors for speed.

Rim lighting looks to strong imo... but its definitly nice. I'd suggest you increase the contrast of the textures a bit, reduce the rim lighting a little and make the rim lighting a little colored.

Rim lighting looks to strong imo...

I have to agree... can you change it to a yellow-er hue to make it look... hotter? Desert-er?

[Jenn0_Bing]

Yeah, at the moment it gives a frosty glowy look, which looked fine on the snow map. But it doesn't fit as well with that theme imo.

I am having a Monkeystrike flashback after watching that snow track video:

there should be a lot more updates in the near future, I just quit my day job! Gonna have a LOT more time to work on ZeroGear.

I can just see it....on Steam in June 08...Zaphod's first game for 9,95 and all of Mapcore bumping into each other remembering the glorious days of Super Mario Kart

I can see that happening too! Go indie games! Go Zaphod!

Will it run on Linux?

Hmm... yeah, is it opengl?

[zaphod]

I will concede it is probably too strong, it's so easy to overdo things when you are first excited to start playing with them

It's directx and opengl.

I'm working on a new character model right now, hopefully I will have another update soon.

[⌐■_■]

somebody write an article about this thread

[dissonance]

It's directx and opengl.

YESSSSS!

[NormySan]

I must say that this is coming along relly nicely. Keep up the great work!
