Another Intense X Post

Well it's not like he was totally irresponsable and reckless- he didn't say he ran off and got married.

Hope you get well real soon, I know what its like to loose Sites, Jobs and so on due to illness and accidents but if you can find a way to get comfy on the machine you should be ok

@Larry: Good luck with the recovery. I've been there. I "played" with a box crusher in late '99 and almost got my left forearm ripped off, so I know all about the staying at home for months ordeal. I actually discovered 3DGS during my downtime, so maybe it was a good thing. I've been here every since.

Now, that you have up to 6 months of downtime, maybe you can implement some adv. game friendly features into the pathfinding portion. I look forward to the day that I can use it and click on a vertical wall and have my player walk to the point on the ground that's closest/legal to it.

Heh heh, sorry, I just had to slip that in there. LOL. Again, good luck and stay away from bikes.

Hi Larry,

I now feel awful over the Dead As A Dodo Heading of my last e-mail, but have been burnt a few times in the past.

The injuries look nasty, I hope they heal ok.

The way foreword at the moment would be to finish and sell your terrific 3DGS add-on, as I said once before it is
the most advanced AI for any reasonably priced 3D Game system on the market anywhere in the world today.

I am starting to get excited at the future prospect of your software availability.

Rest that leg and get better soon.

Ozzie

Larry sorry for your accident

For me is possible to pay before have the product or pay month to month to your finish the best plugin for gamestudio

I know other produtcs use that tecnique pay month to month for have the product update and have a stable incoming of money

or a pre-order or any you can think I don't know if other user can pay before have the program in his hands, but I tell this if you need the money for that times

Sorry for english

Hello Aris,

hope You recover soon :-)
Just went through Your bike-accident. I am sorry for that.
Hope, Your foot works out fine.
Sure, also I do look forward to IntenseX... but the heath is the most important thing :-)

Best whishes from Hannover,

R.E.Z.

Hello all!

thank you very much for your support. It does mean a lot to me.

I don't log in too often lately, although I stay more and more on the computer every day. I thought I'd do the IntenseX tutorial using A7 today, and it all worked great apart from the fact that there's no gravity! Strange little problem, but at least everything else seemed to work fine.

The reason I'm focusing on A7 is that it offers so many things for all editions now, like bones and physics (if you've played Mother's Den. you would need a6 Pro to have the barrels react to shots like they did, etc), and also the new improvement we're waiting to see about the new Panels will raise Intensex to a new level as it relies heavily on panels. And in the end.. we all know A7 will win over A6 one day, just like no-one is using A5 anymore.(apart from TeutonicDarkness maybe ). So I thought, the only way not to release something that will become dated immediatly, is to release it using the latest edition! I know you all think of upgrading sooner or later.. Eventually we all do..

With what confidence each one of you still has on me, I'll say that I've resumed working on my project and will keep you guys updated and not dissapear again(unless some other freak accident happens while i'm in the house..). So I will make IntenseX A7 compatible, but if those A7 templates freeze on 80% and i'm done with everything else, i will release without the new panels instead of delaying even more.

On another note, i've renewed my webspace, but unfortunately my domain has already been taken. I'll let you know of the new domain name i chose tomorrow, as well as the new email address for IntenseX tech support and Activation requests.

Thanks again for all your support

@ghostryder, thanks for the offer. It wasn't so much about the money, it's just that i was in the hospital while my domain expired. But I appreciate the act..

@TestDummy, go ahead and repost what you erased, I'm sure I won't take it the wrong way. Afterall, it was a pretty dumb thing what i did, and i realised how much worse things could have gone, for me and possibly others. Would I ride again? I guess so, but making sure not to step over my limits again, as I certainly did.

@Orange Brat, I do believe that a IntensePathfinding update is due by now I'll check this out this week. Still using A6?

@ozziedave, dead as a dodo bird seemed like a pretty fitting topic considering.. But thanks for your nice words

@Felixsq, I couldn't make people pay for something that's not ready yet. It really wouldn't feel right.. It's not much of a money issue anyway, as long as my foot doesn't get tired while i work on the computer, I'm gonna be ok..

Cheers,
Aris

Hi Aris,

Its good to hear that you are so upbeat and very positive about the project again. Time will heal your injuries.

Aris I firmly believe that you need a web site of your own, not the GS Forum as you have used in the past
even a basic one with no bells or whistles. It is more professional in the long run.

Your statement about moving to A7 is quite correct, in time most will move to A7

Best Wishes

Ozzie

@ozziedave, I agree with you, i'd just put all my effort on IntenseX till now. When I officially release it, there will certainly be a website and forum to back it up. There's also the matter of the automated activation system that i haven't forgot..

@all, check this thread about me calling in Doug for a favor. Maybe if more people post there supporting the idea, we'll mellow him down easier .

Cheers,
Aris

I'm mellow...well, okay, I'm not really mellow. But I'm looking forward to releasing the t7.dll with source and documentation ASAP.

The actual release time is out of my hands, but JCL will probably release it to the beta test group soon. If you're not in that group yet Larry, sign up now. I want *LOTS* of feedback on it.

That's the best news I've heard in months! (considering I had a car accident, there wasn't much competition, but still..)

I'll sign up today, and maybe bug jcl about the beta date.. You'll have all the feedback in the world once it is in my hands. I have 50-100 panels to create with your system..

Well, maybe we can call it a tie..

@ doug
that was the most amusing thing ive heard/read all day.

@larry

nice to hear your okay. I have friend that was riding her moped a couple weeks ago, signaled to turn left and the girl behind her in a 4x4 pickup truck (driving on an expired permit, not even licensed) took it as a "go around" sign, sped up and broadsided her. my friend flew 5 ft into a ditch and broke her femur in half. also she has a fractured shoulder, it sucks.

A school-friend of mine is now dead after heaving a motor-bike accident. So you (and we) are lucky.

Hey whats up Larry? I was actually one of the first who bought intense x basic. loved it to death. I've been waiting for awhile now for the professional version. I know you were in an accident and everything. I hope you feel well soon. I must say you've got everyone waiting on their toes for this release. I'm not to familiar with A7 or anything I'm just getting started with making games lol. I hate to bug you, I'd like to know when the official release date will be for intense x pro for A6. A lot of us have been waiting for Intense X since the Video post. HAHA I'm ready to make killer games and prototypes. Oh yea also to when you say your gonna release it make sure you keep that date in stone.

Thanks
X

Larry, many of us will don't upgrade from 6.60 very soon ..including myself.
So why abbandoning nearly half of your potential costumers?
I think that you should release a version fully compatible with A660 also.

Well, so much for IntenseX. I've upgraded 3DGS since A3 all the way to A6 and have decided I will not upgrade again. Too bad, too. I really wanted to use IntenseX in my projects.

Yesterday I look at this movie it was called Wild Hogs and one of the actors shouted that he didn't needs his legs as he is a programmer j/k I hope you get well soon. I know what pain is!

So anyways, how about the IntenseX activation key generator? Can I get it now? Have not had much chance to work with IX though because I usually have to re-install my system more than once per month and really do not like to activate every time and have to wait all day with that screen until it gets unlocked.

And what is the news? IX going to A7/Lite-C? Can I use current IX with A7.07.1 or must there be made some changes in the code? Do we have access to these parts of the code that must be changed? So much questions. Or do I just give up now!?

I know you said A7 will win over A6 and I not really care because i've upgraded, but if you are going to rewrite everything it could take another year or something? Well at least I like a chance to have some kind of AI to play with in the meantime, even if it only works on A6.

Hi Aris,

I hope that you are getting better by the day.

Aris could we not come to a compromise on A6 verses A7, could you not fully release
The Basic IntenseX version for A6 for us to play around with. As I stated in a post
before, my problem with the Basic software you released was that it did not carry
the weapons through to the next level.

Why not just release that version to keep as all happy for the time being.


Best Wishes Ozzie

Agree

Thanks for the info.

Hi Aris,

What you said makes sense. I didn't look at it from your point of view,
but as I am getting on in age I hope I'm not pushing up daisies before
your ver 7 comes out !!!

So maybe it is just delayed then that's ok. I am glad you are still with us.
I will keep a look out for when ever you release Intense X. Take care of your leg alright.

I would like to use normal mapped monsters that use both close ranged attacks and long ones too, like lancing stones or bladers.
An explosion or replaced death animation ( think the quake 1 and 2 ) and a blood spray could be very nice

this is A6 right?

its been a while since i even surfed the gamestudio forums.. but i see an ad for buy intenseX copper.. or preorder.. what i wanted to ask is... is will those who bought the last intensex beta.. will they get a free copper edition?

also will copper only support fps or will you include the rpg stuff as well?

If you bought the beta, you get the upgrade for free. Copper is designed for fps games, but the later versions will support RPG and others.

ditto..

Still, Copper contains a few elements that could be used in non-fps games, like 3rd P. or a free camera, and non-hostile Npcs, but things like Dialogues, Inventory and Scripting are available in higher versions.

Btw, Intense Script is now evolved to a system similar to Starcraft's and War3's Campaign Editor. So instead of typing in commands, you work with a visual trigger system. The panels for it ain't ready yet, so for those few who don't own sc or war3, here's how it will look like:




Also... regarding the progress on Copper. Once the new version of gamestudio will be released (or maybe... even the public beta), we will release copper as well, since copper uses a lot of the beta features. However, there's a slight chance i will be unavailable when the new gamestudio will be released due to health problems (i'm having a surgery..), so if that would be the case, please be a bit more patient.

Cheers,
Aris

Hey Aris,

Hope everything goes well. Take care of yourself first and foremost. We can wait until your back up and around.

Marcus
