Fullmoon media release
Okay, so this isn’t the date I planned to release our first batch of media, but ModDB seem to be doing a lot of archiving on inactive mod’s and ours is nothing like inactive. So to prove it I have a few screenshots of the main map that will be release with the first beta: fm_forest. Please keep in mind this the not the finished product:

fm_forest WIP image 1 fm_forest WIP image 2
fm_forest WIP image 5 fm_forest WIP image 7

Here is a small video fly through of the map also: Veoh.com

We plan to bring out our next media release around this month's full moon.
Peace x

to gamma-correct their screenshots? Even if it is a dark map those shots are way too dark to show any map detail.

It's basically just displacement mapping, which means that it has a tendancy to look very samey, especially with samey dark lighting. You really need to add in some signposting or you're just going to get lost in that map. Also you may have too many trees for it to run very well on an evergae person's PC. You probably need to optimise it.

I love that movie, when I read the title it brought up that movie and after finding out its loosely based of it...AWESOME!

Those screenshots are way too dark. It's like that was done on purpose to hide any map flaws.

He was only giving constructive criticism. I'm using an LCD monitor and I can't see anything in those screens.

But I lvoe the idea of the mod nonetheless, I wish you the best of luck ;). I just hope it doesn't die.

Looks awesome mate...

Would it be possible to specify the advantages that the Werewolf is going to get?
And can we expect character screenies next month?

There will definitely be character render of the werewolf next month and possibly a render a British army member.

We will also try to include some in-game shots possibly with some of the new weapons. It all depends on how hard we can work over the coming weeks. Thanks for your enthusiasm.
