|
 |
I've eagerly been awaiting the official release of this game for a long time. Nexuiz is a TOTALLY FREE game using the DarkPlaces engine (DP is a heavy mod of the quake 1 engine - oh btw quake 1 turns 9 today!  ). It looks simply _amazing_ in-game (I have played the beta and loved it). It supports bumpmapping, bloom, parallax/offset mapping, dynamic shadows, and all those nice graphical features we love in new-day games. It plays and feels almost like UT99. Anyhow here are some ingame shots:
From site:
| Quote: | | Nexuiz has been in development for 3.5 years by a team of amateur developers lead by Lee Vermeulen. It is a 3d deathmatch game made entirely over the internet. The purpose of the game is to bring deathmatch back to the basics, with perfect weapon balancing and fast paced action, keeping itself away from the current trend of realistic shooters. It uses HFX textures by Evil Lair, and currently has 17 maps to frag in. With an advanced UI, the user can select between 15 different player models to use, with an average of two skins for each, and can connect to our master server to play people from all over the world. |
Official site: www.nexuiz.com
Mirrors are being put up and should be on gaming news sites quite soon ^^ Hope to frag y'all ;P Peace,

i have one, but it's blindingly slow. You can hang out in #nexuiz on gamesurge if you want - I'm sure they'll post the first mirrors. I'll try to post them here ASAP. Peace,

its a UT ripoff but they did a great job...and its a free game. The soundtrack is totally shitty. Kind of lagging (1vs1) but we'll have to wait to have more poeple playing. The weapons are kind of cheesy not to mention the sounds of them. The game didnt leave me a first good impression..might try in a week when more poeple will be on it

BTW for those of you who want to get the most out of the game, here are some graphical options (most of which can be found in the menu):
r_shadow_realtime_word - setting this to "1" shows realtime lights <-pretty!
r_shadow_gloss - set this from 1.5 to 2 (personally I use 2 for greater effect)
r_shadow_bumpscale_basetexture - 3-5 for best effect. Any higher looks wack
r_shadow_glsl - setting this to 1 to allow parallax mapping and...
r_shadow_glsl_offsetmapping - set to "1" for actual parallax mapping only when...
r_shadow_realtime_world_lightmaps - set to 0 for better parallax effect
r_shadow_realtime_world_shadows - set to 1 for those doom3-esque dynamic shadows - ONLY FOR PEOPLE WITH REALLY GOOD SPEC SYSTEMS
Enjoy!

Not really. It's a lot more like Quake.
