Sir Reginald 3D remake [MOVIE update ]

[hippie]

It's been a while, but I've managed to whip out a cutscene, divx 5.05 coded, about 2.3 megs to download. Feel free to comment. As for anim speed, i know it is way too fast, but i'll correct that problem. Also there are no sound yet. Sorry.

Teft of the tear

I have pretty much finalized the main character of the game, I am gonna do only minor tweaking on him.  It's your basic evolution of character pic.

DUUUDE , i love your style MANNN. seriosly i looks sweet! the first adenture game with 3D cell shaded graphics. Keep ur the good work

P.S i wana see a character

a chicken

[hippie]

Thanks.

I could do this in proper cellshading if I would just get Tuhopuu Blender working, but as now there is just toon edges enabled in my scenes.  

As for the style, the House of Witch is pretty much styled in way I am aiming at.

And characters you will see, I am actually modeling one right at the moment, but I won't be promising to show it to you any day soon. Might take some time, because soon I will be pretty occupied with time.  

[Erwin_Br]

May I ask which modeling software you used?

Keep up the good work!

Of course you may. I use Blender, its free and has many great qualities, like armature animation options etc.
And its also multiplatform, so it can be used in Linux, irix Windows etc.

To get more info go www.blender.org
or www.elysiun.com

I was faster with this than I tought. Well, here is the first, rather finished character. The textures need to be tweaked a bit and maybe I need to add some small details, but otherwise, here is Brother Hans:

HANS

He's just one of the four monks from the monestary.

 :o nice character , it looks really great.  The only problem i can think of is that wont all these high res graphics bulk up the file size like hell? Im working at 640/480 for my game and thats pretty big,  but surley you will need even higher res for these characters too look good ahh well keep it up

[hippie]

Yeah, I am aiming at hig-res, so the game will be rather big. My old 2D version was about 20 megs or so and it did not even have decent sounds. Now I am planning to do some fully animted 3D cutscenes also, so I am gessing this game will be rather large.

I've updated Sir Reginalds outdoors scenes, just look at the first post.

[x0z]

Suomalainen?

Looking great!

[hippie]

Suomi Finland perkele.  
Juupasen juu.

Thank you.

[hippie]

Look at the first post for character update.

Comments are welcome.

[PeaceMan]

Damn, that looks good. Did you draw the character in blender too?.

[hippie]

Yeah, my modeling is 100% Blender, textures are made with Paint Shop Pro.

[DragonRose]

What is the game about?

[hippie]

Yes, for those who (pretty much everyone I'd suppose) have not played the old regular 2D graphic version from my game, the plotline:

A crime has happened.
A Servant of evil has stolen an artifact of great religious power from a distand monestary situated in a un-named region of a un-named country.
The brothers, who live in that monestary, puzzeled by this crime, seek help from the king, who willingly places one of his knights, Reginald, to find out what has happened.

It is up to you, to find out what has happened and find the guilty.

The game contains:
- fastly whipped out plotline with fastly and poorly written diologue.
- Bad jokes and cliched fairytale implements
- Numereous characters with no personality what so ever
- Few, if not any, sound efects
- Music tarck contains long sound of silence
- Cinematic sequenzes made in 3D
- and puzzles so hard you won't be able to solve them even if your I.Q. would  pass the point of 160

The remake is going to be released as soon I have finished it. So don't hold your breath. Might take a while.

Finally a GOOD-Looking 3-d adventure game.

[Enos Shenk]

Heya hippie, fancy meeting you here

Not to be picky, but looks like a couple of your spotlights have clipend set too low, you have blackline on that box.

[hippie]

Heya Enos!

Nah, you were not picky at all... correct you were. clipend was too low, but I corrected it... but as I am so lazy I have not uploaded newer version yet. Hah.

Oh and look, I just placed my elYsiun avatar in use.

[Paranoia]

it looks really cool,  i hope you can pull this game off, i'm sure you can, we need more 3D AGS games
