A Christmas special

Messed with the code and got it to stop working so I decided to go with separated collision triangles instead.
It wasn't a complex engine anyway so it works fine.

Made the link a Vimeo link.

I've made a stair climbing system for the engine though it isn't as good as I wanted it to be. But I've come up with a fix for the raycast method.
Also this is the ray-triangle code that I used.
EDIT:
Credit to Admer for giving me some code to work with.

I'm too unfocused on searching for the code myself so if someone can find it for me then it would be great.

How do one program a software that can read from a bsp like file? For use with my engine of course.
EDIT:
Make a custom map format and compiler for it.

I would need help with getting an exporter for Blender that converts a mesh into a file containing geometry information. Usually I copy and paste from .x files but I want something more efficient.
Example file.
Then the vertex positions, faces, normal directions and UV1 and UV2 def.
This is for my Xbox engine, a way to make my job easier.

Now I feel like making a Quake 1 based engine myself.
Have a view of my macOS game Hostility.
It's a turn based strategy game. Currently in the prototype stage.
It's probably mdl root motion based but I don't know.
I believe you have to replace the mdl files (But make backups of the old) with the appropriate ones. But I didn't do that since I don't own Blue Shift.
I also learned to not write your gmail as your username for everyone to see. Spammers can get to it.

Couldn't make step-offset work but I will try make OBBs work. I will relay on invisible colliders for stairs and small edges for now until I get it working.
Had been talking to Admer about slopes and got it working. Now I need to work on step-offset for stairs and Capsule colliders. I had looked up This when I struggled with collision detection and it might be a good source for information right now.
Here's some screenshots from in-engine. (If anyone's still interested)

I got it working myself! Now the player can collide and slide on a triangle!
1 triangle. When going to a corner the player goes through another. Will get to work on fixing that. Also I switched to a sphere collider and will try to implement a capsule collider later on.
EDIT:
Got it working myself again.

I've found this But it's not constructed like the code I have. If someone knows how to help then do that please.
Achievement! I got it working! Now I need to make the AABB object oriented and make the player slide on collision (There's a function in the Xbox Home-brew website to make collision reaction).
Thanks for clarifying me about that site Admer. I don't think I ever got this far with engine making with DX8.

I tested the code and I think my only problem is the AABB system that I'm using. Anyone willing to help?
Having some problems getting my levels to load on the hardware currently so I wasn't able to program any collision code yet. In the mean time someone can translate the code to C++ for me. If someone wants to convert it. Currently the problem to understand about it is the SAT sections.
EDIT:
Got the engine to load levels again somehow and will work on collision detection next.
This is the level that I'm gonna use. (Straight from the Console itself)
EDIT2:
Having trouble getting through this line.
{ if (Max(-Max(p0, p1, p2), Min(p0, p1, p2)) > r) }
Anyone with a 3 parameter function for this?

This post was made on a thread that has been deleted.
I've found that one before but it doesn't look like C++ programming. But it's convertible at least.
Has a bit of a "Too Long Didn't Read" problem with instructions like that. But I can look this through.

Is there a way to fix it?
I forgot about the camera entity's name.
Didn't the view changer start from the player's view rotation and rotate it slowly when activated? Or is it just me?
This was an issue for me to figure out how to make an aabb (obb) collide with triangles on my Xbox engine and since people can C++ here, I'll ask here.
I'm Swedish and I don't play Minecraft.
I did some work on the first Orb-map and would want to share it to the other developers if possible. Here's some screenshots.
It's not really anything to gasp over but it looks fine for me. But I might be too simple. I'll send the vmf to the others via pm if any of you wants to see it or improve it a bit.
Mapping in Source isn't too different from GoldSource except for some additional tools and Displacements.
I where more interested in making an atmospheric, moody game with little obstacles but I guess some thinking doesn't hurt.
Also for a soundtrack, I've found some very interesting music albums from SUBWISE which I think can fit as influences for the mod.
Sometimes an Error : MIDItation
x3d5 : Hard Floors
Vena Portae : Izotop

I gotta say that I don't have the Episodes so I'm extremely limited on resources. But even if Episodes-assets gets used then it doesn't matter a lot since I barely play games made by others except myself. Somewhat of a burden for a developer.
Anyway, the ambient music for my Orb collect game should be bright for the time being. Tho the theme for it isn't fully visible in my head yet but it'll be rather soon as long as I get my focus on it. Also the map in the video I showed would have it's vmf released soon. Gonna create something new for the mod.

Great! The slow paced map can have ambient music while the racing one can have trance or dnb(Just my taste talking). Tho I'm not much of a racing fan. I can design the collection map and give out ideas.
I can give out an example of how it should work. Orb Collection Game
It's "Boring" when one isn't used to it.
I had an idea about a Source mod where there's no combat. You only collect sprites to progress. Some sort of "Keep calm and collect sprites" game for calm people.
No a txt file for story. It's not too fantastic but it's good enough. I think.
I can work on a text file adventure for Half-Life 2. I think I know what theme I can give it.
If I may wade in however, why not start with something more simple at first to see how you work with one another? Try making a singleplayer map or a map pack even. If you jump in with both feet and start a total conversion I guarantee it will fall apart before you even start seriously working on it.How about a txt-story mod similar to my CIVO mod then? I thought it would work really well with switching between the game and a text file.
That or we can do a mod like the famous one influenced by Marathon? (Text on the screen like an overlay terminal) I can work on a very simple story for it.
The mod that I had in mind isn't a multiplayer one. I don't have HL2 DM and can possibly not get to it either. Which is sad since I wanted to make a multiplayer mod sometimes.
Also I don't think the 2004 sdk has a "2 fps" problem since it's for an old Visual Studio build. And the lucky thing with being an Xbox homebrewer is that it comes with Visual Studio 2003.
Don't know where to get it otherwise. If you want to make a 2004 mod that is.
And can Source coding.

All I can is simple cartoon styles like the one I already have.
(These are not part of the mod btw) The models I will make would be like the ones in my Segment series but a bit better. And the coding of the mod (If I must code) won't be too complex so the AI would be simple.
Also altho it's a mod, I also decided to make it an home-brew game for my modifiable Xbox game engine so I would rather have the Xbox game better than the mod. If the engine gets made. (Stuck on programming collision) So if you want to give out a new concept for it then go ahead.
The mod concept was also featured in a video in Segment 3 if interested.

Whats your mod idea meerjel01?A total conversion mod for Source. Something really simple of course. Had the idea of making a cartoon mod with custom models, textures and entities.
Has to be built in an older engine version tho since I don't buy new stuff from Steam. (Tho it can possibly run on the 2006 build)
Maybe I, but I barely have the time. The idea for a mod but not the time.
EDIT:
I can probably join in anyway cause I might be lying about not having time.

Gonna try work on this a bit and hope someone comes by to help. I'm gonna use the source code for the cst to make a custom vrad compiler that can make lightmaps appear correctly.

It isn't a dumb question if one is new to it all really.
The screenshots gives me Timesplitters 2 Industrial Tileset vibes. Maybe because I'm listening to its theme right now.
EDIT:
If this wasn't a horror game then it might fit in as a Timesplitters themed mod. (At least not 100% horror as TS had some of it there)
