New demo!
- Thread starter Humus
- Start date
Bludd said:Hehe, nice work.
It's easy to get stuck in between the stone pillars and the wood floor in the "red lava light" room (it's near the window). It's nice that one does not have health so rocket jumping is the best way to travel in this game.
Yeah, I know. I only check for "feet contact" by checking a ray from the player straight down. So you can get stuck hanging there without feet contact. You can rocket jump out of it though.

Nice demo Humus. Only thing missing is some really convincing water, bouncing balls, and a flamethrower. I find it especially considerate of you that you have made an FPS for "little people." (I feel about 10 cm tall in this) heh. Cool stuff, as usual. :smile:
Right. Back to rocketjumping and trying to find that door that will take me to boss level, no doubt.
Well, I can tell you I don't think there will be a next level, because I think I spent more time designing that map than writing the engine. I needed a big map to prove the point, but it wasn't so easy. Actually, the midget thing is kind of related to that big map thing. I made my first room large, then as I built things out I made it proportional, so the whole map got very large. Actually, I scale it downto half in the engine. I guess I could have changed it to scale it down more, but then I would have to reposition all lights. I guess I could resize the player though.
Is it meant to only run on Ati cards? I get music but nothing else. Not even a window, only a button in the start bar.

Runs fine on my 7800GTX with 81.95's

I'm starting to think you've installed your drivers incorrectly... probably didn't follow the install instructions (disabling virus protection when installing is important too)... I don't think anyone else is experiencing your problem though.. There's always the possibility that your download of the drivers could have been corrupted (or modified from the original)...

Probably not, it may be a bug on your end. It does work fine on 5.12 though.Alstrong said:

I think you're supposed to execute it again...

I'm not sure really. I didn't test with any older drivers, but from what I remember, I haven't had any problems with this demo earlier. The only thing I can remember is that I removed the pBuffer support that I had for a while. Now it's purely FBO. But IIRC the FBO stuff should be fine since at least 5.9.
Thanks, but how is it possible to install a driver incorrectly? One removes the old driver, then runs the installer and keep clicking "next" until it's done, and then reboot again. Hardly rocket science.Deathlike2 said:
Why? I see no reason why I'd have to do that, I've never needed to when installing anything else. Regardless, my virus killer has never given any warnings when installing any video driver (from ATi or NV, nor have I encountered issues installing other programs with the killer running, so I see no reason why it would silently interfere with the process.
Uh-huh. Hacked whilst file transfer in progress at 400+ kB/sec, sure.
The installer uses CRCs and stuff, possibly even digital signatures. Those are pretty secure in any case, it'd be a one in a billion (if that much) case if there was a corrupted download that the installer didn't notice. Again, can't say I've ever had that happen to me.Deathlike2

Well, it's not necessarily that.. I don't know exactly what virus scanners do to interfere with driver installations.. but these steps are documented in NVidia's manual/guide. I recall seeing reports of not being able to install drivers and finding out the virus scanner was at fault (the installation process wasn't flagged, but somehow prevented installing certain components). I'm not saying it is the most obvious thing, but sometimes even the smallest details are more significant than you think.
