Not sure what the plot of your game is, but if you are fighting droids, it could be something like "Droid City", "Droid Apocalypse", "Droid (insert Plot Word here)"

The main idea is: the player is broke on a planet, full of creaturs and robots. He have to find parts of a space ship so that this ship works to bring him back to earth.
oh, and sry for my small English.

@John: I think the problem is he doesn't want to use droid in the name - remember seeing on one of his previous posts something about that name beeing copyrighted or something like that by LucasArts

@ Luis: yea, this is the problem.

as for the name - that bit of story helps a bit - how about...
Escape From Robotica (intead of Robotica place the planets name)
Stranded (think this one was used before - not sure)
Robotica (or whatever the planet name is)
Crashed

ty Steve:) the fire is a animated texture.

I see advanced lighting on and a lot of buildings and light sources, what's your specs and what sort of FPS are you getting?
Also, I'd love to know how you did the animated texture fire.
My name suggestion: Ravage

I think Luis' idea on the planet name might be good idea. What is the name of the planet?

Very nice Daniel! I love the flashlight beam effect as your running, looks great!I think Luis' idea on the planet name might be good idea. What is the name of the planet?

As for the name, I agree that you should just use the planet name.

@ Mack : I run this on amd 4 core cpu and have a ati 4870 inside. The fps is between 15-60 (average fps = 25) , depends where i stay in the level. Only 30% of the models have LOD. (remember i have to do more LOD, hehe). i will describe the fire in a following post. ty Mack for suggestion.

The fire : I made only one texture, incloud every frame of the fire in a row. Then i used Image Sequence of beta 3. There set the speed, and how many frame the texture have. You have also to set Scale in Wave Animation function or you see every frame at once. But i loved more IFL in the older version of T3D. Beta 3 don't support IFL.

You plan on naming the planet with a human readable name (like Robotica) or since it's all robots living there, with a machine address code (like RF12-54D)?

@ Luis, not a bad idea, TY. like the idea with the machine address. Also Robotica is nice. I have to think more about.

as for names - hard to come up with one that will fit not knowing much about the project
i mean - D&D is called this cause the original game had dungeons and dragons in it - Max Payne is so called cause it revolves around that character (it's his story) - A good name has to have some conection to the game
