Hi guys,
This is my first post here and I'd like to show my first game using Irrlicht: a tactical space game.

All models and textures by me (except the moon texture, which is from here: http://planetpixelemporium.com/earth.html and only a place holder).

Looks good. :) The texture of the moons looks pretty high res. What resolution you use? Did you use normal map?

The texture of the moon is 4000x2000 but didn't make it myself, its from the site i linked to under the picture. I didn't use a normal map, because the moon was just a quick test.

why the odd resolution?
4096x2048 would be more approperiate, wouldn't it?
or 4096x4096 on that matter (my preferred size for a weapon texture, unless I need m0ar detailz, then I use 8192x8192)
Oh well. still very nice ^^*

This moon looks good! But also... look weird :)
These craters don't look like craters, they all look convex making them more like mountains, not craters.

The texture has that size because I didnt make it myself. It will be replaced by higher-res one later.

yes beacuse lighting of craters is opposite to lighting of vertices of planet. The light source should be placed on right not on left :). nice texture

I would like to present something I've been working on for the past few months.

In it's essence, it's 2D side scroller zombie survival RPG. But, instead of using sprite animations that appear very "laggy", I've decided to come up with something new: procedurally generating the frames of the animation at runtime.
This allows for many other improvements as well. For example, no two entities look same. I only define something like a blueprint in a xml file, and then my code generates random variations of the given object. This works very well with zombies or trees, but there are many more possibilities.

The game is currently in an alpha stage, but don't worry - I already have something to show you :)

Note that he posted his screenshot on the first of April, maybe it's a 1 April joke :P
Am I the only one who is paying attention ?? :wink:
