The Third Reich: Classic

RE: The Third Reich: Classic
Most of the art is going to be ttr99 build-era. I have a fair bit of assets that were intended for the old 2.0 build, and I\'m looking through that to see what is applicable or not, but for the most part, it\'ll be intentionally close to ttr99.

For the maps themselves, I\'m still trying to decide how close to replicate them. I could do basically a straight port, having about the same geometry for the buildings and stuff, with obvious mandatory updates for terrain and foliage; or I could take the opportunity to actually up the detail a little bit. The issue is, the weapons and players would be ttr99 assets still, so making the enviornments more directly related to the ttr2k4 builds would kinda make a weird diffusion to the art style.

The maps I was shooting for for the first pass was going to be Brindisi, Das Boot, St Lo and Market Garden, as those seemed to be the most favorited. I\'m about half-done with recreating brindisi with 99\'s level of detail(with minor improvements like smoothed archways and the like).

For the weapons and players, the models and textures will be fairly close to straight-ports, but animations are going to be probably 70% or more overhauled/entirely new.
Part of it is because of how the animations are structured is very different from unreal99, the other part is taking the opportunity to smooth out the animations and make them look a little nicer.
Players will be full 3d bodies, first or third person. So you can at any time look down and see your character\'s body.
Weapons will like-wise be the full first-person level of detail(i\'m taking the First-person view models and rigging them up as the weapon model for first and third Wink.

SC: Initially, it will be Windows only, partially because the Mac builds of T3D are lagging behind(they\'re in need of dedicated mac devs to get it up to speed)
Once a new version of the mac build is provided, Classic will see a Mac release as well.
