I thought it would be interesting to talk about these developments that DC is working on. So I decided to open up a thread.

The latest development really got me interested:

Quote
July 26, 2008
There is a lot of new stuff:
- CTF Maps: Yeah! Insane but true! CS2D now supports the capture the flag game mode!
- Env_Object Entity: Additional objects for maps. It currently contains only animated palms and trees.
- Gas Grenade: Releases toxic gas which injures everyone who is close to it (you can't buy it!).
- Molotov Cocktail: Same thing like the gas grenade but with fire instead of gas (you can't buy it!).
Furthermore I added a screenshot function and auto scoreboard screenshots. CS2D can save screenshots as jpg or png and you can select the quality and compression level you want to use for your screens!
So let's talk shall we!

First off, that CTF thing sounds awesome. Secondly the env_object entity will it be able to read (.gif) files or is it using something else to make itself animate? if it will, that will be amazing!

Oh... gas grenade and molotov cocktail, that sounds nice.
The screenshots type thing is good too, so it's not only (.bmp) files anymore. Great success!

I'd like to hear some other opinions or thoughts about this, otherwise simply give a comment.

env_object does not load user created images like env_sprite or env_image do. it just contains a set of pre-definied objects you can put in your map.

it's not dynamic. it doesn't load anything external. you can only use the existing objects which I have created.

you still have to use env_sprite or env_image to include other images.

Ok.

Could you demonstrate the weapons you added, gas grenade and molotov. Perhaps also that CTF thing, I'd like to see how they work.

Perhaps another video?

Capture the flag.

Pretty much take a look at the tf2d mod for a basic idea.

he said AS SERVER. that wasn't possible in the current cs2d version. at least if you use the original software and not third party server software.

Edit:
first public release of cs2d max is now available. news and download link at www.cs2d.com
