Alpha Project: Line of Fire

Hello everyone!
We are excited to show you our project that our team has been working on for the past year, an immersive multiplayer first person shooter that has been pushing ourselves and unity to its limits.We are a group of dedicated students that seek to create a rich and fresh shooter experience and implement gameplay and mechanics that we, as gamers, always wanted, but one has yet provided
As of now we are really busy nailing the core fps mechanics which are demonstrated In our latest update video.

Note that this is just an early prototype and most of the assets and animations are going to get revamped.
We have also made considerable progress in additional elements that are not displayed in the video. You can follow our progress on our official YouTube channel and our Facebook page or of course this thread which we will keep updated aswell.

Here is what our artists are currently working on:

 

Looks awesome! Can't wait to get my hands on!

 

Absolutely Beautiful! :] What programs are used for modeling and texturing? You got serious skills, amazing art. I will follow this!

-The Void Entertainment

 

Hey,
thanks for the kind words! Our core programs include 3ds max,Photoshop and Zbrush/Mudbox, coupled with various 3rd party plugins and tools.

-CGA (Lead 3d Artist)

 

Well you are very good at what you do, keep it up! :]

 

This thread deserves more attention! Your demo looks amazing I have 2 things to say about it:
1.)Your animations should be kept a little bit rigid for performance, to make them feel fast deadly, and to make it seem like they fit interrupting the reload and for falling back when the character dies.
2.)An easy way to make a dynamic skybox is to first draw a video that is seamless on the x-axis on a plane facing horizontally. Then using blender rap it around a dome using tube mapping;
It should look something like this(The picture on it is a drawing I made on a sketchpad in real life); and set up six cameras making a panoramic facing(Up,Down,Left,Right,Front,Back) and record the animation
P.S sorry if you couldn't understand anything I typed.

 

Why not just import the textured dome and rotate by x degrees every frame?

 

good idea and you could just darken seen, and add the sun and moon as 3d models in unity add orange an orange light for sunset and grey for moonlight and when it gets dark change it with a starry sky.

 

Thanks! but we are actually going to remake all the animations to achieve exactly what you suggested! As of now they are just placeholders for the better animations and models to come Also thanks for the skybox tip

 

When is next update?
How big is your team?

 

Hey,

We want to implement lots of stuff before even thinking about releasing the next update video.
And we have atm 10 people in our team.

 

Alright, and wow thats a big team

 

what you guys up to?

 

what is the song called

 

and also did you use photon?

 

Alot

Part of the songs use in the video are on https://soundcloud.com/trancecrafter

We use Unity built in networking in combination with Smartfox.

 

New explosives that are completely awesome

 

You should look into Ddo for a lot more detail.

Not that yours textures are bad, I just feel that military equipment should be more dirty, not so clean. Maybe it could be roughed up or scratches could be added.

 

Your asset's quality is pretty awesome; real professional, keep it up guys!

 

New attachments

I Will be Glad to be a tester,
I'm actually really good at it, cause I know the system, and I know what i'm looking for .

 

Hey everyone, we are starting a new series "Dev Days" to trying to give you guys better (small) updates as well as try to give you access to a more personal view of the game's development. We hope you enjoy the new series so be sure to Like and share the video!

 

Been following this project for awhile and new update looks amazing!

 

We regret to inform all of you that one of our team members computers was hacked and our youtube information was compromised.

Whoever hacked us managed to delete all of our videos on the channel.

We've contacted youtube to see if we can get the videos back.

We'll try and reupload some of the latest videos that were deleted.

 

Ug, thats not too good....

You might what to check that everyone in your team has antivirus stuff installed.

 

Yeah it was my computer that was hacked, I just completely re installed it. Easiest method for removing viruses . We have reuploaded some of the videos and will just continue on from here.

 

We present to you all what Mel has been working for the past few months, the High Poly of B.I.T.F Support character! We hope you are as excited as the rest of the team was when Mel posted a link to it in the chat. Please take the time to Like and Share the post, it helps us grow tremendously and we want everyone to know about and eventually experience the game we are working so hard on!

 

Like none of the videos on this forum thread are playable.

 

Should be fixed now!

 

Hey everyone! The Sandcat Mike has been working on is finally finished! The High Poly was done a awhile ago but the vehicle got put on hold. But now, we are pleased to show you the final outcome of countless hours of work. Be sure to check out the upload to Sketchfab as well so you can see all the details! Now that this is finished, Mike can crank out that 2nd Dev Days video as well, so be sure to check back soon for more updates!

That sandcat is amazing, I mean thats AAA level quality.

 

This game looks amazing, I have been following up since 2012. Great work guys. The quality is amazing.

 

Mel(CGA) has been hard at work for the past month and a half and has finished the High Poly of the Assault BITF soldier and it looks amazing! Please take the time to 'like' and 'share' for his hard work and awesome results! It will help us continue to grow and lead to a successful release!


In other news, filming is still underway. We don't want to provide an exact date for the update since there are always unexpected delays, but we hope it will done soon! Thanks for your support!

 

I am SO confused by this game.
I wan't to think that its just another group of kids making a bog-standard FPS game. It doesn't help that I'm pretty sure DICE will file a lawsuit against you guys if you don't change your trademarks.

That said, I'me VERY impressed by this project. Assets are very well done, gameplay is solid, features are uncompromising and the team seems very professional. Will be watching this closely.
10/10

 

I'm not sure what age you are or think we are (Maybe you are a child yourself? I don't know) But the average age of the members of the team are 18+, working on the game as much as we can in the spare time we have from either work, or full time study.

We are already aware of the logo issues and will be addressing those issues in the future, but rest assured, we are definitely not a group of kids working on the game, and we are most definitely not aiming for a 'bog standard' fps.

 

I sincerely apologise if that offended anyone, that wasn't the intention. I merely wanted to point out that the vast majority of FPS projects made with this engine are made by children. Theres no real problem with that of course as everyone need to learn somehow but it doesn't change the fact that many users of this forum have become desensitised to posts like: "An FPS like no other, zombies, guns, COD, BF4..." and so on. I'm not accusing you of this as its plain to see that this is a professionally done project.

Again, no offence intended, just voicing my thoughts. Keep up the good work anyway.

 

Don't worry, nobody was offended! I just wanted to clear the whole 'age' thing. Thanks for your support!

 

Great sorry again. Anyway, where is the project due from here? Im pretty new to your "2.0" mentality (after the hack) but I read that Richard Boomsma left the team? Where are you headed because its one of those projects that are simply too good to die.

 

Hey, I remember that the original Line of Fire was programmed 'live' in youtube as an FPS tutorial and that was even before you had a name for it. That's where I learned Unity from. I'd love to rewatch the videos, but it seems they have been taken down since. Is it possible to access them somewhere? Who was the programmer? I'd like to credit him for the many tips

 

For those who haven't seen:

The guys over at Remix have obviously been working incredibly hard.
