Criticts is welcome, but the work is still in progress and it is my first project so don't judge very strict
excuse my bad English

Use shadows for the skater and his board! Otherwise it looks like he is flying!

Greetings Dima

thanx for reply, but i'm already using it, you can't see it on some screens 'cos the sun is near the horizon

very nice! i like the buildings in the background.

I like it! keep it up

The characters look very realistic btw

The new Tony Hawk game
No just kidding, that would be abit to enthousiastic
But it does look good on the screens you posted there
Can't wait to see a video form this ^^

Cheers

thanx, i'll post more screenshots and a video when i'll finish the basic gameplay
you're always welcome to give your ideas, funny goals, or just advices, i'll try to realise them

I really like your game (special your characters)

How do you control the player, jumps...?

thanx that is plaeasnt to read for a programmer having his first modelling experience.The controls would be just like in THPS but you can manually change them.The tricks are divided into 3 groups:flips, grabs and grinds, you can link them with manuals and reverts.There won't be much tricks in the demo(8 flips,4 grabs and 10 grinds+ manual,nose manual + special tricks), but you can link them into big combos

I'm not a skater , and I dont know if this has been done by skaters in the past , but you could add a trick to slide the skateboard on one of its sides while stepping on the other one

PS.: Just a suggestion...And btw , I didnt saw anything wrong with your game , except that everything looks a little bright maby tune it up just a little to look darker , it will give more realism.I think.
Keep it up!

OK, i present you the first ingame trailer! Here it is
It shows the game process on the test level and a piece of a real level.
Waiting for your comments, but remember - it's still W.I.P!

realy nice

Nice scripting Shadow969
One thing that needs some improvement is when the skater is gliding of the ramp, it's like he's stuck for a milli second and then he continues.
But it's a nice update you've posted, the city is really tony-hawk like game

Cheers

it would be greater if you add some music -if you did not-

The video is awesome, I just loved it.

I would like to know how is the skate controled by your script, are you using any physics or you made your own movement script ?

Great job !

Oh there seems to be not too much physics, but it looks quite nice.

I think it was a hard peace of work, maybe slow down some animtations where the board spins, it's faster as I was able to watch it.

Nice work,

Thank you!okay,answering...
of course there will be music - about 20 punk tracks,20 rap tracks and 10 'others'
physics is scripted by me - currently it is buggy, but i am enhancing it
and yes, on the video flips are too fast, because my weak PC was lagging when i was recording video and playing at the same time
//Back to scripting...

i really like the skater-model and his animations... very good work!
keep it coming

cheers sinnlos

Thank you!

Pretty good so far This is the first time I've seen this type of game being made in 3DGS.

There was a project called Pelzkus Pro Skater, made by gOmO_3. http://www.coniserver.net/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/657519/page/0
By the way it inspired me to continue, when i was about to give up, thinking that it is impossible to create this kind of game in GS.Thank you, gOmO_3!

Yeah, I kinda wonder if G0m0_3 is still continuing his game, it looked very good.

As for the trailer, nice job, it's comming along pretty good. Sure, physics still need some more work, but you've got the basic stuff done already. Very nice models too,

Btw. do you use level blocks or models for ramps and the like?

Cheers

i just love your game, hope there will be a demo really soon..thats the best i see since a long time in GS.
I specialy like, that the player move to hold the balance, very realistic

Thanx,i think little demo will be finished soon.
2 PHeMoX: i use visible passable models and invisible map entities for collision detection

I haven't posted anything related to this project for a long time, so here is my little report. Finishing a demo is harder than i thought
Things i've done so far
-basic gameplay
-simple NPC's and goals
-ragdoll physics
-skill system
-most animations
Things left to do
-find and fix some bugs
-improve performance
-finish menu
-finish level
-make learning system
-more complex AI

Here are some pre-screens of level(currently it's kinda empty)
