    Hi!

    My Quake/Darkplaces total conversion Hazard is now finished after about four months of drawing, planning, mapping and modelling.
    I would really appreciate any feedback,suggestions and advice you might have regarding it.

    This is the second of three game concepts that I am developing using Quake/Darkplaces. You can find my first one here :

    Run Over Indie DB page

    If anyone can manage to get all the way to the end of either or both of my games then I will add you to my birthday card list and bake you a cake*.

    Many of the tools & mods that made my projects a reality are sourced from QuakeOne.com and for that I am eternally grateful.

    Best regards,

    Adam.

          @rook - that first hazard screenshot is what it looks like after you complete a level. You don't actually ever play in top-view atari mode.

          I can give you a "warning" too. Do not try to kill things from far away...not even just a little far. You will dump all your ammo and end up fighting everything with a light sabre. Unload your gun right in their face for quick kills. Also...keep moving. Things get spawned behind you from time to time and you're only warning is that you die...lol. I will say that even though the game is pretty challenging the "missions" become really redundant. Every level is pretty much the same thing - grab the disk, bring it to the terminal, shoot the power supply, exit. However, doing that is not as simple as it sounds.

            You're totally on target.

            Please look for the secret in map haz01 : First test "Use what you have learned...."

            If you play on Hard mode it gets very Berzerk at around the 90 second mark.

            Thanks a lot for checking it out.

              Gee, sounds like a certain game from the 90s...


              Great work, I played through it yesterday and was pleasantly surprised how it got better and better. The final levels have such nice visuals.

                It means a great deal to me that you took the time to play through it.

                Thank you.

                  I'm on The Core but I can't seem to figure out how to destroy the emergency blast door and sometimes the mechanism resets before the count is up

                      Originally, on standard difficulty you could jump into the blue teleport "sea" and shoot the PowGens (tm) from there but after some thought I decided to stop this method by putting up the blast doors.

                      You have to run your way back to shoot them. It's the only way.

                      Thanks for the feedback, I am taking it all onboard so that I can make the appropriate changes when I release my first update.

                          This is what I think so far of the game..

                          walkways that aren't ready to be walked on blend too well. I will admit this is probably a fault of my gameplay style of first person shooters,which is CHAAAAAAAAAAAAARGE!

                          think Leeroy Jenkins minus the "Leeeeerooooooy Jenkins!" being yelled everytime I rush the enemy lol.

                          walkways that you can walk on and walkways that are in need of being generated via sticking keycard into the kiosk/computer blend in too well, I found myself walking off the edges due to my play style. It very well could be just me, but I think as example, when you first fire up the game the Red lettering is highly contrasted against the blue background, the walkways that aren't ready to be walked on could be highlighted in red. When I first fired up the game I REALLY REALLY wanted to find my old Cyan/Red glasses and play this game in 3D,as it just screamed 3D at me with Cyan/Red glasses style.

                          These are my first thoughts, and they aren't well articulated. Hopefully you can deduce from that cluster fuck of words above and pick up what im laying down

                            I will for the sake of lack of weapon titles, list them as they appear in the game...
                            Weapon 1 = sabre
                            Weapon 2 (initial gun your supplied with) seems way more powerful than weapon 3 (the spread of the projectiles is nice) but it seems waaaay under powered compared to weapon 2.

                            weapon 3 (the grenade launcher type weapon) is cool shit, I dig it!
                            weapon 4 (fully automatic weapon) holy shit this thing burns through ammo fast!

                              That's interesting and you make a good point I will add it to my list. After developing it for so long you do get a bit blind to it.

                              I am just getting to grips with the .qc files. It was only 3 hours ago that I compiled my first progs.dat (thanks to numbersix on IndieDB). I spent all day combing through it, changing self.netnames into Hazard versions. The weapons in there present form are direct replacements of the originals. The Laser sword has all the properties of the quake axe, the Pulse Pistol is the shotgun, the OC Pulse Pistol is the double barrelled shotty and so on.
                              I would like to alter them in time, when I get more confident with messing with the code but at the moment they are the quake weapons in fancy dress.
                              Did you find the shotgun more powerful then the double barrelled one? At ranged targets, without a doubt.

                              I hope you're still having fun with it and look forward to what you think of the ending.
