Well I really hope someone will get this thing going :/

Well you know Dinomite, we have the tools for co-operative mode in place already with T2 mP. All we need to do is get someone to write the script for "Friendly Fire" no damage to teammates. Then create co-op levels using kexstudio. The levels would have to be mean and nasty of course so that it would take 2 or more players to handle the carnage that might ensue. If we could get Behemoth interested, he seems to like major amounts of carnage, and animal ferocity.

So I don't know about these programmer guys you got here... hmmmmm    lmao Hi djdduty, and I've never met the other guy Perma. I think dj has helped me out a couple times, thanks dj.

After I got in contact with Perma, it seems to have given him a push toward this project. I'm not making any promises toward the state of the project or anything but we have been chatting regularly about the ins and outs of the project and discussing certain goals that need to be set and achieved for the project to make any significant progress.

Again, I'm not making any promises for any time soon but I figured I'd at least keep you all updated after the huge amount of radio silence from us programmers .

Gj looking forward to any updates and just like the guys said here no rush no pressure. Keep up the good work guys whatever projects you may be working on. Feel free to share other games projects in general user content or anything else boards. I'm sure some ppl here would support the projects even if its not Turok related. Enjoy!

Figure I should probably update this thread since it's been some time since I've made any progress here.


So the last I was working on this I hit a wall attempting to spawn additional players, I managed to solve that and ran into an issue where when spawning the additional player there was hud elements and camera mash between the two players.



If you notice there's two of the little walk-way as well as other things...

I also ended up having some fun with talset throwing a tantrum...

Here's another example of the camera issues:


And I'm happy to say I've managed to find a way to solve this, while it's not solved yet.... I am able to make only the spawned player's camera appear.



Within the same sub routine I've also been able to identify effects (Water overlay, pickups, damage - red screen when taking damage) and how to disable them for specific players meaning I've actually fully accomplished this feat and can now start to synchronize the data between dynamically spawned players.

After a long break I've made some serious progress and I'm pretty happy with myself as of right now.

The next steps I'm going to have to take...

* I need to disable the input from player 1 going into player 2, I haven't determined what's causing that yet but I should be able to figure it out.
* Sounds still play for the spawned player picking things up but this is probably a wont-fix at this time.
* There is no sync or multiplayer functionality currently.
* I cannot force the game into a level yet on startup which I'd like to do so that we can have an external lobby system similar to znandroum or zdaemon.
* I have no way to *destroy* players upon a person leaving currently, we could simply kill them and never re-spawn them but this presents other problems which hopefully I'll be able to overcome.

In the mean time things are progressing quite nicely with this roadblock finally out of the way.

Wow looks like a lot of good progress. Nice job dude!
