Not as 'Riveting' as the last batch of screen shots... Not really showing us anything awe-inspiring (no offense.) but I know many of the changes aren't cosmetic.

GG.

What is causing the flame/explosion in the first shot?
It looks like the guy in the front is attacking the resource node, but he is too close
to be using a grenade launcher... And the flame seems to be a lot brighter and less
dispersed right next to him.
I say flamethrower!

Nifty screens, but you're just scratching the surface here (and I include the playtesters, who have not seen a lot of the final 1.1 visual changes yet either). As for people's questions on the resource model, still being worked on. Never fear, it will kick your rear.

Plenty more testing, tweaking, bug-hunting, etc. to go, so don't expect it out by Thursday or anything. But this build is looking like the best NS ever...

Relic25 · April 2003

heh. Never fails. I've seen sooooo many people just foaming at the mouth for custom crosshairs, and when we finally get around to making some official ones for NS, the first comment I see is that someone wants to keep the old, HL default. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'> Oh well, it's still something that can be customized if people want.

By the way, the screens only show 1 of the 6 crosshairs, and it's more visible than the screenshot would suggest.

DrSuredeath · April 2003

Forgot to ask.

Can you mention any new maps?

Rabid_Llama · April 2003

If you look at the commander mode screenshot, you can see that the menu system's been changed a bit. Dropping ammo and health are now their own buttons, and not in the "Equip" menu anymore. Makes me wonder if there's anything new in the Equip menu... <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

DocZ · April 2003

I noticed the overhead map in of the marine screenshots (not the commander mode, but regular marine view) and it looks just like it does now in 1.04. In the version 1.1 information thread, Immacolata writes:

</span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'>The marine soldier mini-map will display information similiar to the Commander's minimap if Flayra gets a known bug fixed. Right now it just shows a frame of the bare bones geography minus blips for structures, friends and aliens.

</span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'>(Flayra @ Jan 14 2003, 06:29 AM)
It was supposed to function exactly like the commander's minimap (it's the same code), but there were some problems with it that I didn't have time to fix for v1.0. I'll definitely be improving it to work like the commander's minimap, probably for v1.1. </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'>
</td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'>

Has the improvement been scrapped? I'm not complaining about it, just curious.

in reply to DocZ

i think he just has not had time to look for what is causing the bug and get it fixed up

i am sure it will be done

CallMessiah · April 2003

Ah, nothing is more fun then playtesting times, when everyone suddenly starts getting visions and starts asking the roacles about the future of NS. Speculations arise and imagination is at an all time high.

Nice screenshots as always. Especially the changes in commander mode are what I'm looking forward too, anything else is nice, but it is like adding an extra nice set of new clothes to an already filled wardrobe. It justs so good already that I wouldn't miss the new changes.

One thing the new hype reminds me off is the old saying NS once was all about... the one slogan stuck in my mind from the beginning and always connected to NS from that day on:
"Natural Selection - Everything is Subject To Change!" <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Relic25 this is excellent news but a question: occassionally I am forced to play clan games where the server enforces file consistency. Will these new, rear-kicking crosshairs be part of the whole NS package and as such allowable on consistency servers?
