Coop Mod Update
2004-04-19, 4:26 AM #1
Here are some fresh screenies from our mod. A few things have happened since last post. Our founder Alienized on Massassi as decided to move on from our mod for personal reasons, Arkon and Freyr have taken over the leadership of the Coop Mod. Contrary to belief Freyr has not left Massassi he is just busy on the code for the mod. All these maps are Works in Progress. We hope you enjoy the screenies as always feel free to contact us at coopmod@hotmail.com.

Arkon says a special thanks to Zully for his awsome Tatoine textures, and Gonk for the inspiration.

Freyr says thanks to Wudan for your inspiration and great resources on your website.

Thanks again to all of Massassi for your support. We can't do it without you guys.

Looking good. Any chance of being able to play this mod alone or do some tasks require more than one player to complete? (yes, I know that may defeat the purpose of the mod).

Well, mabey, mabey not. I was thinking about releasing this also as an SP mission pack. Why not?

I still wanna see screenshots of more than one person playing, but cool. The maps could use some lighting (the swoop map could use some lighting, period). It still looks awesome, though. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Basically the only reason we don't have multiple human players is that we lack a server to test the mod on yet. Although I wrote a new command system that allows you to send orders to friendly NPC's. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Well, I know I probaly shouldn't be saying this, but I hit a snag on tatoine with the lighting. So to tell you the truth these screenies are a bit old. And the swoop one is even older. But I think I'm to the point of working that out.

Nope, we don't. I think Freyr and I both agree that it would be just too much work, and it would take us away from the more important goal of getting this great mod out. It would just take to long to update, and moderate the forums and such.

As we only have 3 people on the team a website is really more of a hassle. I am an experienced web designer but I have to devote most of my time to coding for our mod. Thanks for all your positive feedback everyone. It helps. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

Since Arkon wanted me to comment here so badly, screen by screen we go.

Left side of the stairs, there's a misalignment in the textures. As well, the banners in the back should have "cull twosided" in their shader file. You only see one side now. O.o

Funky lighting on the leftside of the screen there. Misplaced pointlight?

As for the next two screens: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NO ADMIN COMMANDS. kthxbai.

texture misalignments up the wazoo there.. Also, try phongshading those rocks. I'll help you with this over MSN, Arkon.

Bit weird to see stuff sticking out without a real attachment point, as well, shadows are weeeird.

Could use some q3map_skyLight, as well as pnumbra shadows. That also goes for Tatooine, by the way. Once again, catch me on MSN.

I knew this map was by Zell.. clean, but overly cloned. Yuck.

Well, it looks quite nice, except for the stuff I mentioned. Good luck.

Your guess is as good as mine. I've only seen this anomaly once and it never happened before or after. The fact that I'm not touching the hud menu system makes it even weirder. I don't think this will be a proble.

Yes. Admin commands are neccesary in keeping the peace. Unlike some modders I know (and you know who you are) I didn't go overboard on the commands. People come to expect them and it is the concenus that without them gameplay can be ruined but with them in the right hands the MP experience is more playable.

Sorry about the error I made. The are 4 team members. Echoman is most certainly on our team. He is one of the more experienced mappers on our team. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]
