DM-FonDuality is finished 😀

This is a small and simple duel level using the same assets as DM-Fondation. Except a major bug / flaw / issue, this is the only release I’m making. Have fun!

I’ve made few changes to DM-Dystopia 😀 Head over the level page for the download link 🙂

Those are the changes :

• Adjust collisions and add blocking volume on the platform with ramps in front of the Bio Rifle.
• Reduce the lift time from 1.0 to 0.85.
• Add LiftExits to enhance AI. It make a noticable difference!!
• Remove Lighting Gun.
• Move Link Gun where Lighting Gun was.
• Move Shock Rifle where Link Gun was.
• Move Belt where the Shock Rifle was.
• Rebalance the ammos.
• Speed up the big reactor fan near the Flak.
• Switch the 25 and 50 armors.
• Fix bad reflection in the Grenade Launcher entrance / exit near teleporter.
• Tweak the fog.
• Tweak the ground material near teleporter.
• Tweak the lighting.
• Tweak the PostProcess.
• Tweak the water swamp material.

I’m very happy to share the final version of DM-Fondation 😀

Final changes, in no particular order :

• Switched Shock Rifle and Rocket Launcher and their ammos. By design, the player standing on the Belt platform can be kill from the opposite of the map by a hitscan weapon. Only with those changes made, the gameplay is better, to my surprise 😮
• Decreased the lift time near the Belt. From 0.7 to 0.65 so players can jump a bit higher without hitting their head on the ceiling blocking volume.
• Adjusted few static meshes collisions here and there.
• Adjusted blue and green light materials colors.
• Corrected the English story.

A big THX to Achernar, ÐutchSmºke, Mac Apex, Mic and Wulfgar63 for their RC1 feedback 🙂

Dev on DM-Fondation is practically finished. The final will be released this Friday 😀

I had 1 week off in the holidays, so I started DM-FonDuality using the same set of awesome assets!

The post pic is the view from the Sniper Rifle, my bud ÐutchSmºke will be happy to know his favorite weapon is there 😉 Meshing of the play area is finished (I didn’t start the surrounding yet), lighting is mostly done, post process isn’t activated. Eventually, the level will look up to my standard, as for now, it’s just to provide a basic look and feel of the level 🙂

I’m please to share the release candidate 1 of my new level, DM-Fondation (French title) 😀

RC1 mean that, for me, the level is practically 99% finished. I’m releasing a pre-final version only to make sure everything is well done, bug free, and polished before releasing the final in 2022 🙂

You want to make a suggestion? Much can be done in the pre-final phase. Even if I like the level the way it is, any good suggestion is welcome. Let me know! Post your comments here plz! I’m eager to read ya because once I’ll publish the final, except a major bug, I won’t touch it again. So this is the right time to share your opinion, it’s your way of contributing, making a possibly better final version 😉

This is my Christmas gift to you all! So, meeeeeeeery Christmas 😀

Progressing is going good on DM-Fondation.

It will be imho, my best level yet 😀 It’s not the first time I take inspiration from another level, even from my own previous made level lol but I must say that with all the enhancements I’ve made, gameplay is really awesome, much better than the original and with low level bots above that, which isn’t an easy task to achieve! It already look super nice and I’m not done yet. I upload a pic of the Shock area just to compare with the previous status 🙂
