ESF is a fast paced, 3rd person fighter based on the hit anime, Dragonball Z. Select your favorite character and fly, power up, transform, melee, and beam your enemies into pulp. Each character is given signature moves and abilities to compliment different style of play. Some are stronger in hand to hand combat, others are better with energy attacks. Play in three different game modes, deathmatch, team deathmatch, and capture the dragonballs. There is a learning curve so newbies beware. This is not your normal Half-life mod.

In today's update, we explore the the head animations in the HUD!

POTW




After the Open Beta: Final was released, we promised that heads would be shown in the HUD instead of the character's body. Although the heads are now showing in the HUD, we decided to take advantage of this little feature. To make the feature look interesting, we decided to animate the heads.  I'm sure many of you have noticed this change in recent screenshots, but since it looks so much better in motion compared to one frame, a short clip of these animations will be shown!


With the recent additions of the FX System and High Poly Maps, two job openings are now available: Particle FX Artist, and Environment Artist. If you're interested in the job, or are looking for more details, head on over to the recruitment thread!


Hope you enjoyed the update! Come back next week!

You guys made some awesome work in the past years.

Do you gonna stay on HL1-Engine or do you might wanna change on Source-Engine some day and create a "real" DB: Source Mod?

Uh.. no.

ESF has been around for more than 5 years, while NNK has been around for a year. It may seem that we have many similarities because a lot of members from the ESF Team (including myself) work for NNK.

The only coder that works on NNK that is from ESF is Raven.
