So, are you making an actual 3D remake of Oddysee (similar to Munch's Oddysee) rather that a 2D remake with 3D graphics?

yea its competely 3D. with every door linked directly (doors in foreground no longer link to doors i background)

Well, since you're doing it that way, it would probably serve the game better if you didn't follow the 2D level structure. You could make your own level structure which would allow you more freedom.

Dean Monti · #37 07-10-2010, 12:59 PM

Awesome work. Good luck.
By any chance would you be able to release any of the models in that scene in maybe .3ds .fbx or (least probable but the best for me) .blender ?
10q and awesome work.

I kind of like how he is structuring the levels though. It is 3d, but keeps a certain level of familiarity with the original levels; not that he shouldn't create wider spaces where needed, though.

Yeah i fully agree with you.

I am following the structure as close as possible with regards to object placement and the level design but am adapting certain parts, like moving doors and linking them directly in 3D (this is hard to explain but I will put a pic of my layout on here asap to illistrate what I mean).

It will make more sense with my next set of clips that I am currently working on.

All of my objects are in .lwo format (lightwave) and I am currently working on low, medium and high poly models for draw distance purposes and trying to keep the poly count to whats necesary in the given scene.

Hi

This is my version of Abe's Oddysee. I plan to do the whole game and would like feedback on the progress so far from oddworld fans. Take a look at my link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2HbsI0NQRs

Thanks

Nowtun

I have moved this link to this thread to make it easier to keep track of.

This is the first few screens of Abes oddysee in 3D that I am making. This consists of the first introductory screens and the first secret area of the game hidden behind the barrel.

There are a few glitches down to camera angles which I will alter in the near future.

Hey Nowtun, I don't want to be a bummer but you need to edit instead of triple posting! Triple posting results in negrep.

Anywho, well done, as always the works is brill, any pos of a demo?

Hey STM Sorry I'm still getting use to this forum

I'm still looking for a programmer preferably someone who knows a third person engine. So no pos of a demo yet

In the mean time I will be modelling the rest of the game and characters.

Holy Sock · #44 07-10-2010, 05:09 PM

Do you have any models done for other characters in the game?

unfortunately not yet, just Abe so far. and the only reason I made him already is because Larry Shapiro wanted to see my character modeling abilities. but my plan is the next character to be made will more than likely be a slig.

STM · #46 07-11-2010, 05:34 AM

I would make slig's, abe, mudokons and slogs, that way you have all the characters you need for rupturefarms

Abe and the mudokons are already done just have to texture them differently. Slig is next and will then make slog. Before modelling the characters I am going to complete the entire rupture farms all four zulags and the boardroom so could take a few months.

As soon as they are made I will post them on here

i know its a fan game, but what about cutscenes, voices, sounds and stuff?

Andrelvis · #49 07-11-2010, 12:37 PM

The voices and sounds can be the same as the original game's I wager.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! · #50 07-11-2010, 12:44 PM

oh yeah, what about the cutscenes though, will they be the same too?

nowtun · #51 07-11-2010, 02:08 PM

:

I am going to use all sounds and music from the original game. As for cut scenes I havent thought that far ahead yet but more than likely my own.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! · #52 07-11-2010, 02:20 PM

oo, cool!

You aren't being a bummer, as I'd already mentioned it, but that's not the main point of my post.

Double (or more) posts are spam and will lead to infractions. I understand that you're new to the forums and you haven't double posted since STMs post, I'd just like to clarify this.

Mudokon_Master · #54 07-12-2010, 12:35 AM

You, my friend are FREAKING AMAZING! This could be big, I mean BIG and you should definitely keep working on it! Perhaps a bit more texture on the trees if possible, and in some areas of the ground.

i already appologised for this. did you really need to say it again?

Apparently so, because you've just double posted again. If you'd like to quote multiple posts in your own, you can use the multi-quote feature:

Click this thing:

and it should change colour. Click several. Then click "Reply", and all those posts will be quoted for you to reply to.

I was clarifying that the consequences for double posts are more serious than neg-rep. I'd like to take this opportunity, also, to condemn STM for making a misleading post, which is a step down from his usual pointless and hard to read dribble.

Ah see I didnt know that.
Thanks for pointing out how to do this.

Where do I find out what everything does on this site?

***Wil*** · #60 07-12-2010, 04:06 AM

The FAQ is an automatic creation of vBulletin (the software OWF uses) that should explain its features, but I can't vouch for its accuracy because I don't think I've ever read it.
