Have a look at sub-level-zero on steam. It isn't out yet, but the ludum dare version is great fun. I'll be getting it the instant it's released because it promises just about everything youve mentiined here.

I intended to attach a video to my previous post in this thread, but it appears I forgot, so here's a sampler of the ground-based FPV:

If you grab the 3D model (fnoigy did a great job cleaning them up: http://www.shapeways.com/product/RBZ4S4TNN/class-1-driller?li=user-profile&optionId=43158350), then you can open them in blender and use the paper model exporter to create a paper template. It's what I did for a paper version of ...

No-one mentioned geocore because this is a thread about descent underground. A few notes on Geocore: - It reminds me of my own attempts at making a 6dof game.I worked for 4 years and had a passable single player going! What do i mean by this? It has exactly he same problems my one did. The robots do...

Yup, FPV quads for the win. Unfortunately i don't have the resources to maintain a quadcopter, (and some annoying regulations wherer i live) so instead i do fpv cars. Not as cool as flyey things, but a hang of a lot of fun whizzing around at scale 300kph. Maybe in a few years when they've sorted out...

As soon as the site's home page dissapeared, I used one of my bookmarked links to it to jack myself into the pages that still existed and grabbed a mirror of what I could. The mirroring software wasn't very good and broke all the links (ie images don't show on pages). If you're looking for something...

I did look at it a while back, but it seems to have had some upgrades recently. There's a lot of stuff I haven't seen there before!

sdfgeoff

The hard drive isn't the bit that does UEFI, it's the motherboard that does that.

Pther than that, I know nothing about the upgrade process.

Well, As I mentioned on Fnoigy's thread, I made a paper template for the PyroGX. Here's a picture of the model: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17630723/Descent/Paper%20Pyro.jpg Took ~3 hours to assemble, the main fuselage is quite hard due to all those angles. Wish I had a color printer... And ...

Sorry, no. But this page has all the d1 ones, and this one for d2.

I have a nice Zip file containing front-on screen shots of all the Descent 1 and 2 robots, thanks to Zico. You'll notice each shot also has the health of every bot in it, and there is a text file with the damage of each weapon in the terms the game dealt with them in. For completeness' sake, I shoul...

I went and downloaded the stl from shapeways, then opened it up in blender. After splitting the parts up, I now have a paper template that I can print and assemble. Tomorrow/coming-weekend I'll see if I can make some textures for it. I'm guessing you [fnoigy] did the cleanup to get the parts attachi...

I don't like it on principle. "Give us more personal information so we can protect your ... personal information???" Everywhere wants my mobile number, supermarket chains, email services, [eugh]facebook[/eugh], the list goes on. The only place I've ever given it to other than people I know...

This is the most official place I could find:
http://descent2.com/goodies/3dmodels/thinman/descent1/

They're the names I know the bots by.
That said there is a Descent Strategy Guide floating around somewhere. (A physical book. I don't have one though)

If you want a hand with your website, just ask in the tech support section on this forum. We have some really knowledgeable people here. Otherwise, just chuck me an email, and I'll help you if I can. (sdfgeoff at gmail)

Why did they soak it in liquid nitrogen for the opening?

I was amazed, 8 games happening at the same time today! Never seen that many on the tracker.
A lot of new people in those games as well.

sdfgeoff

Great work.

I think more cards are needed:
More of the D2 bots
Prox bomb trap card
force field something card?
blue, red and gold key cards (again, don't ask me the effect)
switch card?

You are quite right, I was mistaken when I mentioned desura, that is indeed NeonXSZ

@Bubbalou: I know this isn't the point of the thread, but: I agree that minecraft seems pointless to me. And I have the reason pinned down. I can 3D model using blender. The things I can create there are far more interesting and detailed than anything possible in minecraft. People play minecraft to ...

Oddly enough, I googled this project only a week ago to see how it was getting on. My main critique is the sound design. Descent's sounds are very atmospheric, and sound deadly. Geocore's sounds sound rather, well, hollow. Like someone was beating the end of a trash can while shooting wimpy blobs of...

I use a tiling window manage (i3), and don't have anything putting icons on the desktop.
I see the background maybe for 30 seconds a day, but anyway, here it is:

About as simple as you get, but I like it!

Happy or satisfied? I enjoy being able to help other people, which is why I drift around 'generative' forums. I enjoy sitting down with a good book I enjoy doing an activity that uses my whole body (eg using a chainsaw and cutting down a tree) I also enjoy exercising my brain, solving problems, prog...

Very nice, I hope you can feel the envy from here! I'm hoping to print my own once me and a friend have finished building a 3D printer we're working on. Why so huge Ferno? At that size 3D printing is even more expensive, and it would be easier to CNC it out of MDF and assemble it, or just cut out pa...

What will you be doing with you computer?

I tend to prefer the more lightweight side of things, and so when I'm feeling productive I use i3wm, a tiling window manager. When I'm feeling less productive, or want other people to be able to use my computer, I use XFCE4

Google 'Glass Harmonica' for some similar sounding stuff.

They'll never make it to New Zealand.
And if they do, there's not many people and a lot of space to hide.

I use linux because I'm cheap. And here's my experience with both OS's: I buy a laptop with Windows 8 preloaded. Windows 8 breaks and the recovery partition corrupts. So I set up a dual boot system, one for Ubuntu, one for Windows 7 (which i have a key for through our uni). Setting up Windows 7: 1) ...

If you're in a country where most people have guns, then it may be advisable to have one. As for where I live, I know two people who have guns. Neither are pistols, one is an air-rifle and the other a .22 for hunting. Statistically, there are 4.51 million people in New Zealand, of which only 230,000...

Fairly similar except using an android phone, not charging people for it (seeing as it doesn't connect to the internet), and I'd preferably code my own.

For my own reference, here are two links.

At a couple of places around town there are free wifi access points that are just plain unencrypted (open security type if you like). But when you first connect to them, they take you to some webpage with terms and conditions and a connect button (or if they're mean, a password box). 'Scuse be for b...

A level editor needs to be developed. One considerable possibility is to adapt the classic Devil editor to Inferno. Another is to write a Blender exporter so that Blender may be used to build levels. Still another possibility is to write the editor from scratch. A Blender texture mapping exporter w...

I'm looking at developing a system to help organize files and folders on a computer, and want some information on what people think about the current system and what they have. So if you have a few minutes to spare, I'd appreciate it if you could do this questionare.
