Doom3world

I fail to see why et:qw would be a good engine to use for a doom2 remake

Terrain, MegaTexture.

All the AI would have to be written from scratch though. Plus it's in the Quake universe so it would be illegal to turn it in to Doom 2 (isn't there already a Q2 remake in the works?).

Doom 3 has megatexture though. It's been done (but no compression like QW).

ET:QW will have bots. The implementation of MegaTexture in Doom 3 is very basic (diffuse only) and, like you said, no special compression.

and a doom 2 remake would need mega texture for what reason? Doom 3 would work out better, premade AI, if megatexure is needed doom 3 does handle it. besides doom 2 didn't have terrain, it was city based.

Uhhh... I don't think so. I'm pretty sure it's a multiplayer only game, and it will have absolutely no implementation of AI... But is everyone absolutely SURE that AI couldn't be put into Quake Wars for Modification? And by that I mean you couldn't take anything from D3 and put it in Quake Wars??

I'm not a programmer so I wouldn't know this specifically... I don't know how much the Quake Wars engine differ's from Doom 3, after all it's not even out yet.

unofficially... it has bots. It hasn't been publicly announced but all evidence points towards it.

but that doesn't matter, can't do a Doom universe game in Quake & vice versa. Even with all the content limitations out of the box (bots != SP AI. How many SP Q3 mods are there?)

2, outpost and The dark conjunction or 3 if you count hunt, which didn't really have a full singleplayer experience as the others did.

What's up?

my mouth aches.... :/

working on my project, daily guitar shred, and waiting, for the weekend, more people intersted in Team 6DOF, urban terror 4.0 release, out of hell UT2004 release, more info on Id's new project, and more media from Alan wake.

so... i think tommorow (end of the week) we should take these ideas we've got and start something over the weekend... like what the games going to be... but its up to you guys.

no, to early, it's a must the project must be planned out before we work on it, besides BNA! insisted that we get 10 people first. I don't want to rush into a project just to have it fall in.

heh true... its just im really excited and want to get started but your points are true...

we'll defenitly get a cutoff of Friday (3/2/7 or 7/3/2 for every on the other side of the world. )

we should have a few people, perhaps BNA, Rich & someone else eliminate all the ideas except 2/3, then the "team" votes on the remaining ideas for which one to do.

That would be the most fair way to choose IMHO.

After we get an idea, and hopefully the 10 people, we can vote in a "mod gestapo" who will run the thing.

the Mod Geheime Staatspolizei, I don't know what BNA!'s background is, but I don't think he would like us calling the leaders the gestapo.

my first thought was "mod nazi" after JC's comment we need an "OGL Nazi" to keep it up to date.

Give me a break... i still can't eat anything but banana's & pudding. I've got steaks in the fridge TEASING ME!!!

How about we need a "Mod Romereo" who will make the workers "his bitch."

Geheime Staatspolizei sounds more STASI than Gestapo (DDR vs Third Reich).

Regardless of my background - no nazi stuff.

sorry, i wasn't trying to suggest we call them that.

It could be something done as an extension to the Doom 3 game so how about a role reversal where you're an Imp battling invading Marines?
