nexuiz's stuff makes it crash so we cant use the regular stuff with it to see. we just have to wait for data to be put into svn.

Wait, why is Zymotic using MD3 models for characters while Nexuiz uses SMD models for characters?

Why are you asking this question? It's Zymotic NOT Nexuiz. Zymotic is newer so I guess it uses slightly more advanced stuff that couldn't be put into Nexuiz.

Because I'm curious to know the answer maybe?

It's Zymotic NOT Nexuiz.

A true, if irrelevant, point.

Zymotic is newer so I guess it uses slightly more advanced stuff that couldn't be put into Nexuiz.

They use the same engine (darkplaces) and neither one of those formats is more advanced than the other, each is more advanced in some ways and less in others versus the other.

Hmm, now that I think about it, it is probably do to that server code issue div mentioned in another thread. Because Zymotic didn't have planned multiplayer I don't think, it had no issue with MD3.

zymotic use md3, dpm, and zym just like nexuiz, but more complex; ie 3 seperate zyms/dpms/md3 for the segments, and more animations with more complex animations.

Unfortunately going by the zymotic video, it doesn't look like it has either animation blending or any camera-bone relationship that would allow the player model to aim up or down as the player view looks up or down, like in tremulous or any modern game.

So at least without those engine features, the 3 part mesh doesn't seem to make a huge graphical difference, imo.

/me pokes hes head in and likes the topic. I always enjoyed a game with a good SP mode, in addition to on-line play. I may be able to help a bit making this happen. /me returns to vacation mode.

ok. everyone wants their sp concept to be used, so following the 2.5.2 release we should have a contest. it will last until the 2.5.3 release. submissions require a storyline, 2 campaign map minimum and at least 1 extra content, THAT ISNT IN SVN, IT HAS TO BE THEIR OWN, as well as the submitters source code for the mod, svn code may be used as long as they do the above. the winner will have their storyline as nexuiz's storyline and be put in the credits.
