Arioch Posted August 1, 2001 Fredrik Johansson updated his page today with the announcement of his return, and the news that he has picked up work on Pain, a Doom 2 megawad project, and is looking to get a newer computer since his old one is no longer adequate to the task of editing for Vrack 3. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lüt Posted August 1, 2001 I STILL HAVE THE LEVEL WITH THE MOST SIDEDEFS SO HA! :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Lüt Posted August 1, 2001 You can't help it. The game crashes with a 32K sidedef count, or a 32K seg count. I had to cut it down already to get it to even load without a crash. 0 Share this post Link to post
Afterglow Posted August 1, 2001 Yes, I'm aware of Doom's limits, but we can both have 2^15-1 together. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Swedish Fish Posted August 1, 2001 You guys are more concerned with linedefs, then good playability...Nobody except maybe other authors even know what a linedef is and probably won't even be able to enjoy it because it will slow to a crawl. 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted August 1, 2001 Fish: yeah. * Ebola feel innocent in this cause, he don't intend the maps to become that big, it just happens. Sorry- :p 0 Share this post Link to post
Afterglow Posted August 1, 2001 - I'm concerned about sidedefs, not linedefs - I didn't say I would advertise many sidedefs when I release the level(s) - The level(s) will be very playable, I'm simply focusing more on little details which will make it all the more fun to play. Hell the gameplay will be why the sector/sidedef count are so far up. - I'm going to take that as gay, as in happy. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted August 1, 2001 I could continue editing Vrack 3 with my current computer, but it would be tough. And it's not really that Vrack 3 is more extreme than any other level, more likely it's DeepSea that uses too much memory. But I need a new computer anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post
NiGHTMARE Posted August 1, 2001 You're American, right? I hope you realise that in the US, the use of gay as an insult is apparently now spelt geigh, to differentiate it from the homosexual meaning. This is apparently something to do with all this political correctness crap, but fortunately I can still use gay because I'm not American :) 0 Share this post Link to post

Lüt Posted August 2, 2001 Relax, I was just being an idiot. Statistic count isn't what I'm advertising it as. It was just the first time I'd ever been able to work without visplane overflows and I got a little carried away. I think it plays decent, but then again I think any map that's passible plays decent, so I guess I'm not the person to trust for playability ratings :P 0 Share this post Link to post
