What language is subspace coded in?

Mine GO BOOM · Posted: Fri Jun 23, 2006 12:25 am *Post maybe stupid* Post subject:

C++ for the game code. I don't know the menu code, but I'm pretty sure its C as thats how Ekted likes it.

^ That's for continuum.
The VIE SubSpace client was entirely MS visual studio C++.

I thought some of the stuff in continuum was in asm?

It's possible Priit directly ripped some stuff. But nobody knows.

It would be killer to have a zoom.

Like, make it appear, even if ones maximum resoulution was 1024x768 to make it look like they were using 1600x1200 by zooming out of the game. Or , zooming out from the maximum resolution of what is it? 2000 Something by 1600? Or if you are crazy enough , Zoom out all together to see the whole map and little ants scurrying across the screen fireing salt pebbles and chunks.

I think the next client should be similar to Cosmic Rift in it's capability of zooming, auto-spawn turrets, meterioid showers, traiding posts, converting metal to cash or w/e.

The next client needs to be very different but the same in many ways. More features, better quality, better graphics. One day If we can get an updated client continuum will rise. But if we keep delaying it more and more people will quit until there is no one left. Maybe hombing missles or something.

Is this turning into a "Bak, note this when you develop Discretion..." thread?

Because if so, it should be so that you reg. your user account, but aliases themselves are not registered.

I didn't really understand that last post, but maybe make it so you have to activte your ss account by email when it's first created. It would be easier to alias and it would stop a bunch of noobs who constantly change thier name.

for a pretty zoom, the ship models would need to be in 3d.

3d ships models and other objects. while keeping 2d perspective (top down) would make this game look visully alot more impressive.

i think aliases are a good thing. sometimes i just want to play and not be bothered by anyone.

SpecShip · Posted: Sat Jun 24, 2006 12:49 pm *Post maybe stupid* Post subject:

Not really.
Infact, from experience they'll just look worse.
Take Warcraft3 for example.
Or FPSes.
All you get from "3D" games is some crappy blocks wrapped by polygons...blah.
I prefer a top-down perspective RENDERING of a textured 3D model.
Because you can then take this like a simple bmp or something and put it in the game to play with (like Infantry and SubSpace were made).
So you still get a nice looking high quality GFX.

You're joking right? Sure if they aren't done properly, the graphics will look like shit, but we aren't looking at stellar graphics with SS as it is.

SpecShip · Posted: Sun Jun 25, 2006 3:33 am *Post maybe stupid* Post subject:

Juan's work is always stellar.

CypherJF · Posted: Sun Jun 25, 2006 10:53 am *Post maybe stupid* Post subject:

I have to agree, I've always liked Juan's work in any game he's been on.

Three can keep a secret if two are dead... Hmm that may be true but this is still an old skool game. This sounds similar to the stupid korean who sat in front of his game system for 48 hours and died. So why do we worship prittk again? Oh because we have no motivation and lack neccessary confidence? We can't be as intelligent? I think as long as you don't make excuses for the task you have your head start. I tell my bro to learn whatever he can possible for his Gaming Career but no he won't listen but then I tell him this is your career. I leave out the dumbass.

Can't memorize the c++ book practice each page 20 times. Then code your own game as long as it's oldskool it's cool.

Outlaw, nobody worships priitk, and the only reason why people need him, is because he has the source code for continuum.

He has a point.

"We"

Who are these we people you refer to?
I never needed nor worshipped Priit and never will.
