Short: Beta.3d Tank for C/BVision and 3D/64 GCards
Author: MarginallySinister(Tim Hanson)msinister@connectfree.co.uk
Uploader: MarginallySinister(Tim Hanson)msinister@connectfree.co.uk
Type: game/shoot
This is a beta-test version of a work in progress. The finished game
will include missions and a variety of enemies (including planes and
missiles). The purpose of releasing this version is to discover if the basic
engine works on different setups and to gain user feed back.
You will need in addition to this archive:
A 3D graphics card: currently either B/CVision PPC or CVision3D/64.
The Warp3D librarys and drivers for your graphics card.
Cybergraphics V3 or possibley 4.
The code is pure m68k so no ppc is required. (The finished version will
probabley come in ppc and m68k versions).
Please check that Cybergraphics tool type BITMAPCACHE is set to YES.
Also close as many screens and windows as you can before running as the
textures take up a lot of video memory.
The game is run from CLI with no parameters. You must first CD to the
battlezone drawer. Please contact the author
with bug or faliure reports and constructive critisism reporting all error
messages. Sorry the game is a bit short; an update is due shortly but I`m
working alone so don`t expect speed. Any perkins reporting bugs or sending
useful sugestions will get a free registration for the full game. Please try
a few different screen modes. Bilinear filtering can be switched on and off
using the mouse button during play. It only effects the ground. Please
experiment with this. I find 640x480 runs at an acceptable speed on my
040/25 with BVisionPPC. Bilinear filter slows things down slightly.
Any talented folk out there who would like to contribute graphics
and/or sounds please get in touch.
Features of the full game wil hopefully include:
4 Different types of enemy tank.
Cruise Missiles.
At least 2 types of flying enemy. (plane and helicopter).
U.F.O.s
Different scenery eg: grass, desert,
Mission objective i.e. something big to blow up.
Better explosions.
Between-level shop to upgrade your tank.
Improved enemy AI. (the enemy is unbelievably stupid at the moment.)
Improved collision detection.
and anything else I can think of or is suggested by you.
The game is played with stick or pad.
P.S. Sori four mi abismel speling
