JED wireframes of my new level
2003-10-30, 9:52 AM #1
Hi I started a new level, it's untextured yet so I'm posting some wireframe shots in JED. What do you think

Hey - how did you get a perspective view in the wireframe? Everything I've ever seen is orthogonal.. (serious question)

Wait a second. That almost looks like you made a level of the Jed interface.. Look at how the "floor" is blended in the last screen. If that was really Jed, the tick marks on the grid would be dots, and the lines would be just that -- lines. This is all not to mention that all the edges should be lines as well, which they're not, and Jed displays everything orthographically.

That, sir, is not Jed.

Let me guess the name of this level... JED!
I can see you've been busy. Let me see if I can guess on what you've done...
You made the WalkPlayer totally green, and set all his surfaces to a GeoMode of 2.
Then, you made a Pure Black skybox, and a floor with a JED Grid texture.
The wireframed sector surrounding you is nothing more than 12 red bars put together. And the Object behind you on the last picture is a 3DO composed of 12 green bars and a little green box.
And a yellow box 3DO above to top it all off.

How did I do? A? A-?

Missed you there...
And it took you 3 posts to figure that out???

I noticed it in the 4th shot. If it was Jed in WireFrame View Mode, then the WalkPlayer wouldn't have had his hands of his hips, or so...

[edit] My first impression was: "OK, you're first level is a default box. Hang on, the lines are a bit think. Did he make curving walls? Very tight curving walls?"

Yeesh, took you guys long enough to see that... I commented on it in my first post, but Zully made me change it.

I figured it from the perspective and the thick lines. I wish JED did look as good.

? I knew something was wrong the second I saw it.. I just didn't make it the focus of my life to figure out what was wrong.

EDIT: Actually, I knew something was wrong when Snootle of all people was trying to post a ss of the default sector..

Wow. Sexage. Pure and utter sexage. I WOULD play a detailed version of this... In fact, I think this would be the BEST level ever, not to mention Mod. Everything JED.

You my friend, are now my Qod.

[edit]I realized what it was as soon as I saw the 3DO, which wouldn't show up in JED unless each and every body part was modeled, otherwise it'd just be a box, like in the shots above it.[/edit]

It only works in software mode, and that is obviously hardware mode, as you can tell from the texture filtering. Also, it wouldn't have such a low LOD like that does.

how cool would it be to have a JK mod where you changed all the weapons to JED tools, cleave replacing the lightsaber, etc...

Hehe, I didn't think anyone would fall for this, guess I was wrong though.
I had the idea of making a "JED" level a long time ago, but only now I was bored enough to make it.

As far as gameplay goes the level is just a big box right now, but maybe I'll do something with it, what do you guys thing would make it interesting enough to play?
-Snootle
2003-10-31, 12:46 AM #38
this might be very time consuming, but why don't you make it the JED layout of another map? instead of just the default sector, have it all 'JEDed out' with it being a map of a map.

do ya get me?
