Post news Report RSS Cobalt Runner- Tech 4

A quick update that showcases a bit of the achievements system.

Posted by on


A quick demo.

It stores your achievements in a local file that's encrypted. As far as I know, It's the same method Steam and Call of Duty use, so I figure what the Hell. Whenever you go online, your achievements will be sync'd with a master server where you can view other's achievements as well as your own. The same server will store times for time trial and maps for download.

You should probably make the "Achievement Complete" box look different so people can know that they got the achievement without reading the text.
Maybe you can make the box green when the achievement has been unlocked?

Good idea, mate. I actually have a blue variant of those graphics that I planned to use for boxes that needed attention drawn to them. Didn't even cross my mind to use them like that. Thanks!

as far as iv gathered the mod wont be focused on killing things more so the action of escape, such as avoiding fire while trying to make your climb through the maps.

why is it that ever since id made 'tech 5' that everyone keeps going backwards and 'renaming' previous engines to match it? id never renamed them, AND there aren't even enough iterations of the engine to actually.. do it properly - forgetting wolf and doom entirely..
it doesn't add up does it?
quake, quake2, quake3, doom3, quakewars, .. tech 5.
</rant>

Sorry ;) It's just something that's been bugging me for months and unfortunately my RAGE happened to get posted here because I saw 'tech 4' :( even if it isn't what you're referring to.

On Topic though:
Looks good, and you're doing some really cool stuff with it ;)

Plus, I'm not sure why you've included quakewars as a separate engine... it's just the latest version of the doom 3 / idtech4 engine. So.... there's exactly the right number.

He's talking about id's naming conventions for their engines.
