You need more than a shipset to make a zone

 

And you'll have fun converting them to 2D

[Footballstar8583]

yes i know but would some one if i had ever thing finished, and the 2d part would be the hardest. But i wont make a zone. Edited June 2, 2007 by Hamm

[Chambahs]

No, that would mean a big dl.

[Footballstar8583]

ya

[Gravitron]

If it was just looks, as much cool as the descent ship is looking, no.

If it was more than just your run of the mill superzone with pretty shipset, yes.

 

If you have the model, you can make the gfx for Infantry and do some really cool stuff there.

From those pics im not 100% sure how well those ships would go together, are they all from different games?

[Footballstar8583]

yes there from Descent 3, I wanted to call my zone descent 3. I'm a 100% Descent 3 fan Edited June 2, 2007 by Hamm

[Smong]

What would be the game type of the zone?

[Footballstar8583]

Well Descent 3 is based on a Ctf\dogfighting\dodge ball\ and more. But ill use Ctf or a super zone.

When you come in to zone it will show this:

(unfortunately, Unreal Tournament is also copyright infringement, so i guess i cant say much )

Descent 4 was going to be awesome.

!@#$%^&*ing projects cancelling financial troubles...

[Footballstar8583]

There thinking about making D4. It might not happen tho . Never knew you played D3 gravitron. Dang i didn't see the copyrights Edited June 2, 2007 by Hamm

Who cares about copyright - it's not like someone is going to sue you for using a few Descent 3 graphics in a free online 2D space game since there is nothing to gain

 

A nice Descent 3 zone could be quite popular, Hamm. However, don't forget that it's not all graphics - there should be a good worked out and fun game play to keep people playing.

[Footballstar8583]

well like i said the zone wont be made but if i ever get to have a zone again it will be like this

[JDS]

waste of a thread cough

 

good idea tho

[Footballstar8583]

dont get me wrong i would make the zone but i just cant

[★ candygirl]

then why did you bring it up lol

[Footballstar8583]

When i get a changes to make a zone again i would make it like this and i just wanted to know if it would get pop :/

[Sass]

I've seen some of the crappiest zones (graphically speaking) get good pop - take HS for instance - that zone is an absolute graphical nightmare, but the gameplay is uniquely attractive (and a bit addictive) for attracting pop. Then you have zones like ones worm has built and that Red Planet zone - graphically better than the new WoW but remained deader than dead - download was too long or maybe the owner didn't have enough time to commit or whatever. There's no crystal ball to tell you if it'll work or not, but some simple suggestions: dont make it too graphical in attempt to use that to attract players over the gameplay, dont make the download long (everyone maxes out at 32bps limited by the ss client) and if you avoid that mess, be ready to put your time .... a lot of time albeit .... into keeping your pop and getting new players involved. Look at how Blazen built Fusion as an example.

[Footballstar8583]

ok....

[★ candygirl]

Give it a try..

[Footballstar8583]

give what a try, the zone?

[★ candygirl]

yes the zone.

[Footballstar8583]

Cant, my router wont let me make a zone. And no one will host a zone for me :/
