Inoculator9 Posted November 10, 2003 Author Share Posted November 10, 2003 Me too obviously, so we might be able to start something out...Perhaps, since my work on S2K right now is strictly organization, we could band together and try and find some people to help out with a 3D Dune Build game. We could even use the CyborgPrime Studios Forum to host a private discussion so that we can get things going. What do you guys think?

Inoculator9 Posted November 11, 2003 Author Share Posted November 11, 2003 Well, it's been decided. We will be operating a little side project at CyborgPrime Studios. You can comment and ask questions about how the game is going at:www.cyborgprime.cjb.net In the Dune: War of Assassins board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerbilpoo Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 ive been reading this thread and i wondered will this game cost anything (srry if this has already been mentioned i was just skimming through) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerbilpoo Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 and btw ive got a new idea how about a strong unit but you have to be the first one to reach the end of your tech tree to be able to use it?p.s if this sounds a bit confusing just im me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 This game will be totally free of charge.Inoculator can answer your other question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted December 5, 2003 Author Share Posted December 5, 2003 Perhaps elaborate on your idea gerbilpoo, and give an example. I'm fairly certain of what you mean, but I'd just like you to clarify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotsman Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 This might have been mentioned before, how about the ability to create a mine field? Another idea is to have more natural obstacles like extremely soft sand, where, heavy units can become bogged down but will allow troopers,trikes and quads to cross. Or the ability to lay steel mesh on the sand if you need to expand for building. Sand storms, areas of the map that are uncovered can become temporally blinded to players as the sand storm passes?Just a few thoughts, sorry if they have been mentioned before.

Inoculator9 Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 Mine Fields will definitely be an included feature, and steel mesh is an interesting idea as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 So how's the project going? And what had happened to those two new people? -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 I'm still programming on the engine.Progressing a lot recently.I think I will be finished with it by my deadline: Christmas.However, then the real work begins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotsman Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 In regards the mine field.Laying the mine field, will you have the ability to drop the mines from a carryall or orthy?Instead of sending the orthy's on a bombing run, you could select mines and send them off to seed an area. The mines will have to be viewable to the player laying them only. Will there be a special ground unit that can lay a minefield? Mines blast power? Will it be strong enough to destroy a tank on a single hit, or will the tank need to run into several to be destroyed? Will force fire work to cut a path through the mine field?All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted December 18, 2003 Author Share Posted December 18, 2003 No specifics right now, lol ;) But I'm considering a mine laying orni, of some size, to fill this role though. Maybe have certain infantry units after extra training be able to drop mines. You never know though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyborg Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 do you have a beta out yet? ???If we had, I don't think we would be so "stealthy" about it ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted January 1, 2004 Author Share Posted January 1, 2004 Well, it's closer than most would think ;) I've just taken on a new team member, who seems very good at modelling, so we should have results soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Leaf Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 Cyborg can't make the game alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted January 2, 2004 Author Share Posted January 2, 2004 He can make the game engine alone, and he is, lol ;) He's doing a great job, so I intend to make every effort to ease the weight on him as possible. So far, I think we can count on about three reliable modellers right now.Oh, and one minor milestone... this thread is now on the top ten list for views ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 Woo! lolThe engine is almost finished I think...correct me if I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inoculator9 Posted January 2, 2004 Author Share Posted January 2, 2004 According to Cyborg's estimation, if it isn't already ready, it will be before the end of January. At least a beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 The reason the engine is not already out is that some technical difficulties were stumbled upon...The engine should be ready shortly after I've sorted those difficulties out. I'm testing all the code I write to keep the users from discovering a bug I didn't notice because I wasn't using that part of the engine, so that also takes time...Anyway, when the engine is out, I'm going to be really happy!
