DNF And New Tech

Yes, but the target audience for Duke Nukem will have moved out of diapers in two years' time, so what's the problem? ;)

Can a nigga please change the damn http://www.shugashack.com/ banner? I've cleared my cache like 5 times and it's still there!

ok everyone, since I'm very bored I deicded we can play a 'cool' game. You get to do my english homework. We had to read a story about a guy who finally works up the never to ask this girl out on a date to some tea dance (it did take place in the 1920's) but when they went they were too shy to talk to each other and it a disaster.

My assignment is to write a story from the girls perspective. They are both 12 and this is the 1920's. I have almost all of it done so I decided to see what the 'creative' minds at the shack could come up with for an ending.

I wrote the story saying that the boy was crazy and she is telling what really happened. So... anyways, my exciting 'game'. (just ignore bad spelling/grammer. I haven't proof read it yet)

---------------------------------------------------------------------


When I was in my teens, I lived in Mount Vernon, in the same block with Elwyn White. Poor Elwyn. When I was a lot younger, I believe around the age of 12, he asked me out on a date. I'd always thought that he was a nice boy, but at the same time he could do some of the queerest things. For example whenever I would walk by his house I got that strange tingly feeling on the back of my neck as if I was being watched. My Mom told me it was just Granddad looking over me but last time I checked Granddad wasn't an obsessed twelve year old boy peeping at me through the White's window. Of course, that was just one of the many strange things about Elwyn.

One winter Elwyn even took up hockey in hopes of impressing me. I knew that he did it for me because he would skate big hearts in the ice whenever a fellow team mate passed him the big black piece of rubber. This was even stranger then it sounds because he was the goalie, and from what I'm told they're not supposed to move around. Some of the other boys who played noticed the hearts he was making and people began to talk. Of course, only the boys played and watched hockey so they begain to think things.. Some of them even went so far as to force him to look the other way when they were changing in and out and their hockey attire.

This didn't even phase Elwyn in the least.. He started writing love poems to me, but most were incomprehensible at best. Some were even downright frightening, as if the devil himself had a hand in their creation. He wrote about all sorts of things saying how he wanted to dance with cinnamon toast and eat me. He never signed his name on any of them, which is why the police couldn't do a thing. They told me it was just my imagination and that I should be mindful of the ten commandments and not bare false witness against thy neighbour.

Of course, not all of the 'courting' he did was scary. One time he tried going backwards on his bicycle and ran straight into a car. He flew like a bird, with now wings, face first into the ground. The doctors came and said that he would probably have some permanent brain damage. I knew it was wrong of me but I still found it quite funny. That is until he started getting stranger due to the accident. He began taking pills and daily injections from the doctor which he called 'Brain Candy'.

Everyone in town became nervous whenever Elwyn was nearby. His obsession with me became... more bizarre then ever. I knew something had to be done so I asked my brother, Parnell, to politely ask Elywn to leave me alone. Well.... (ok, who wants to start it off?)

[quote]Landscape is cool. We had our own landscape engine capable of ten's of thousands of polys at 50 fps a long time ago. They are about the simplest rendering engines to write. [/quote]

Hmmmm, that's why we haven't got a single engine out yet that runs outside terrains perfect [without fog, george]. 3Drealms has kept that mega-ultra-render-the-outside-engine [tm] in the closet for years!

They'll probably release it around 2010. Right after Nukem Forever.

Can anyone recommend any places to buy DVDs online ? Anime DVDs to be specific. The only places I'm aware of is Express.com. I want to check out more places before I actually buy something online =)

"We aren't doing 40 bones in the face, but then again DNF will be out a couple years before this next gen stuff ships."


Who's he kidding? Duke Nukem forever, coming christmas 2002!

I'm a FPS fanboy, have been since Doom, and I'm telling you I can't wait to play this game. This is one of those leap of faith things guys, be patient.

I personally believe this game will kick major ass, and even knock Half-life off it's shelf.

DNF sound more and more like Diablo2 and Daikaka. It is just take forever and I doubt the result.

Do you guys see the normal or jvox banner? Am I on drugs? Is IE gay?

Just wondering when we are going to see DNF...

Interesting.

Well, at least we have a new terrain engine and a skeletal animation system.

That's about a 20% improvement over the existing Unreal engine.

Wouldn't it be funny if:

a) 3dfx couldn't deliver the Rampage and went belly up
b) 3DRealms was stuck with a game that wouldn't run on any current cards in 2002 when they release it
c) They switched to Q3 (or Doom2k) engine
d) They release a statement that the switch will not affect their development time at all.

Thanks!

heh..

Heheh. Saw this on Blue's:

I will indeed buy this game,err,if they ever finish it.

whew, I finally got army of darkness off the ftp. Anybody want to upload the other of the rest of the series?

Hrm. By the time DNF comes out, WHY wouldn't it run well on most NVIDIA cards?

Nearly all the NVIDIA users will be on some sort of GeForce card by Spring 2001 or have purchased a Rampage if they are actually innovative and faster than NVIDIA. If you are still on a TNT2 or TNT1 then, it's really, really, really time to upgrade. Hell, once I get something faster than this PII-400, I bet I'll break 60 fps in UT in D3D with a GeForce2 MX. If you can't afford a new machine, purchase a VIA KT motherboard, 128MB PC133, a Duron 750, and a GeForce2 MX. That'll run you about $500 and should provide a massive performance boost over anything purchased a year or more ago.

On top of that, there is always the chance that Epic's new arrangement with NVIDIA will result in some performance gains, or that they merge some of the OpenGL enhancements from the Linux version back into the main game or into the D3D version.

"1) We've had skeletal/motion capture/facial animation for over a year."
haha thats just too perfect.... especially considering epic's released 2 games since you started on DNF

anytime you start using years as your timeframe... your game has been in production far too long.

and "responding" (penis envy) to some jpgs that were released relating to an engine and game that don't even exist yet means you have way too much time and way too little in the way of presentable tech yourself.

cheers,

*all comments should be disregarded as the author has been awake since the previous day*

*prays that their shit runs well on nvidia cards*

DNF AKA Daikatana 2

DNF in my world still stands for Did Not Finish

3DRealms' highly anticipated game Duke Nukem Forever has been in development for a long time.

HEADLINE NEWS for the 15th day of september, 2034.

DNF has been put on hold again. this is because their newest programmer, the 34th in the series, has suffered a slight heart attack and was listed in stable condition but later that might slipped into a comma and died. he was 87 years of age.
