the Engine Room - Beta release

Post by Diablo65 »

Ok, I've been working on this for about one and a half week on and off, and I liked the idea from the start. Now Im having doubts though. Im getting a pretty low FPS now and then, and there's some sound clutter. That's why Im asking you to spare 10 to 15 minutes to play around a bit with this mod, kill a few flood, and give me your 2 cents on whenever to scrap or evolve this mod, and if the latter, what to add/fix. Thank you.

It's a good thought, and it might work. tell me what kind of computer do you have? And does your computer run insanity ok? (the reason i say that is because i think alot of people get bad frame rates on that map, and if you can run that map, your should turn out file) Oh one thing though, don't do the warthog run on D40, i already claimed that BSP :wink:

I know llama, Im one of your beta testers :) I've been toying with the idea of an AI mod there, but I think it's too vast...

I run Insanity pretty well. I get a bit of lag if I stare at a multitude of explosions everywhere, but it's still playable. about 15-20 FPS, 30-40 standard...

The mod ROCKS. I'd play it all day, but I have one last final exam before the end of the school year, and I need to study.

The FPS is fine on my laptop, and I have a 1.83 GHZ CPU, and I have a sub-par graphics card.

I also made a video:

If you call that sub-par... well... mine is, :'( Well, it's much much worse than that.

The reason your FPS is bad is because your useing to many flame effects. Also i think you should just call this done and move onto something else.

That's something I could change easily should I choose to finnish this mod. You see, their command lists tells them to run very close to the Marines before I allow initiative. Becuase of this, they will barely damage you untill they reach that point. If I finish the mod, I can simply give them intiative before they get into the marine line of fire.

It's a multi player map. Run it as usual (on LAN or a locked Internet server, AI doesnt work well over the net).

Oh yes, quite positive. I can give you a few Sapien picks if you want, seeing as you can (at least I cant) open Scenarios that werent created at your computer.
