- Hi All,
-
- Well, I finally was able to find some .WADs to use with Bad Mood and
- Dview. May I suggest adding an FTP link to a .WAD that we all know works
- for sure with Dview and Bad Mood? I haven't been able to test Dview, as
- I can't find a .WAD that works with it.
-
- I have done some programming, but I don't think I know enough to be
- useful in that area. I would like to be involved in this, though. I
- have a Falcon.
-
- My thoughts on Bad Mood:
-
- * Why is it so dark? It reminds me of Towers. That's why I don't like
- Towers, it's just too dark. I realize that more light means more
- objects to draw, but it's really dark!
-
- * After seeing Bad Mood, I know what texture mapping is :) Am I right to
- assume texture mapping will seriously slow down processing time?
-
- * You're right! It's fast!
-
- * Is anyone planning to have the screen bob up and down like Doom does?
- IMO, that's one of the things that makes Doom very real. It wouldn't
- be too hard, would it? I realize this is probably far in the future.
-
- My thoughts on Dview:
-
- * Maybe I have Doom 2 .WADs. If so, it should tell me, not bomb out.
- IMO, it's bad programming to ever let a program fail with bombs..
-
- * Where can I find a .WAD to test it with?
-
- My thoughts on the web page:
-
- * Add that .WAD link, as mentioned above
-
- * Explain that Bad Mood is the Doom engine, and that Dview is something
- else (why are we spending time on that?). I found it confusing at first.
- I still don't know why it's named Bad Mood.
-
- General questions:
-
- * Are any of the guys from NPG working on this? Did you see the 'boom'
- preview? They had a great DSP maze, and even had sprites working.
- Obviously, they know what they're doing. What about programmers from
- Towers, Lazers and Men (or whatever it's called), and Substation? Have
- you heard from any of them? It seems the more programmers we have
- working on this, the better it might be.
-
- Good job, guys! I hope this materializes!
