TSE Starter.fps download
by Joseph Euan · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 08/19/2005 (6:09 pm) · 183 replies
I got the starter.fps folder ported over to TSE (TSE water and Atlas are working in the starter.fps as well), and I wanted to upload it for people to play around with/use if they want too...
Update:
v1.3 for TSE projects using MS2 or below "here" (23MB)
v1.3.5 for TSE projects using MS3 "here" (18MB)
(the file size is smaller because I used a better compression setting)
More details of v1.3 and v.13.5 can be found here www.garagegames.com/blogs/18010/10218
You can find links for the older versions on my .plan
At the moment it contains 2 maps....
Stronghold: just the same old stronghold mission, but with the TSE water.
Simple testbed: Just TSE water and Atlas terrain, it has 2 platforms and an AI player running around...

Do you know if the format was changed or is it just bugged right now? (this is about having to port interiors over)

I'm pretty sure the format changed. I just re-ran map2dif on all the maps to produce new difs and it worked just fine.

It doesnt help that the geforce FX series cards arent exactly optimized for this engine either. I use the FX 5200 and I get around the same FPS as you do.

Would be good if people could use the filefront.com download (the first one), so I know how many downloads the file has had.
Thanks.

Here are some screenshots made with the Huge Atlas terrain. I made the following modifications in mission file :
Clarity ="0.5"; (WaterBlock)
VisibleDistance="4000";
FogDistance="3000";
First Screen :
Oops a bug? or perhaps a solution for underWorld? (It's when I go too deep underwater)
Underwater
And to finish two more screens...
P.S. you can remove mission file in data folder ;)

You're welcome :-)

Looks to me like you went underneath the waterBlock. Remember, it only extends so deep and if you sink underneath it, you'll see the ground reflected on it like that. Just increase the scaling for the height.

Yeah, I've changed that ready for the next release... I forgot the check it when I added the water. :(

Hey, got bored this morning so I figured I'd try to implement the warsparrow and fly around the huge map. it went in very easy, I think I may try the car next.

VisibleDistance="4000";
FogDistance="3000";

@chris : I think you should look your sky in mission file and adjust these parameters : VisibleDistance="4000";
FogDistance="3000";
It looks good...
@Jacob : Thanks for the info ... ;)
