Should warzone 2100 be redone?

Post by HLG Dale »

ok i have been browsing throught alot of the topics in mutiple areas and have had an CRAZY idea :!!!:
what if we gave up using the system of polygons and other -gon's and used a completly new system format for warzone 2100, so that the awsome models that people create can be seen in thier ultimate glory.

but i know this would have side effects such as:
needing to create software to run the new warzone on.
having to re-write all the scripts and create the campain all over again.
and this would take so much time that we would be soo bored and give up warzone 2100 (let us pray that dose not happen)

i also think it should be named [warzone 2200: NEXUS's counter attack]
but on that basis we could create a whole new campain and make a whole new warzone we all like :D.

So whadya have to say, post wht you think.

P.S

i am a pathetic person :gonk: who dosent know much about codes so plz dont confuse meh ;) .

That's not how computers work. Models have to be represented as either triangles (trigons) or some sort of polygon (or possibly a polyhedron, but I digress) to store them effectively, and even if you were to magically eliminate this, it still wouldn't allow you to display an arbitrary amount of detail in real-time. If you only mean to replace the model system with something more flexible, discussion about the future WZM format can already be found on the forums.

I think you may be posting only for the sake of posting. It's never a problem to post well-developed ideas, but in my opinion posting vague summaries ("The renderer needs to be awesome. We should rename WZ2100. We should create a whole new game.") isn't the best use of anyone's time.

- It's already already in the Project Roadmap - the .WZM format & you can read about it here:

That's not quite what I intended to convey. It isn't that anybody here 'hates' you, but that it would be nice if future suggestions were both more specific and more detailed.

Wow, you sure gave up fast O_o

No-one hates you (on this forum at least). To hate someone, one must first get to know someone, so since we don't know you, we can't even not-like you, let alone hate you... Please don't act like a 10-year old :rolleyes:
What they meant was that for every project, especially a major one like developing a new game system, thorough preparations are needed:

- a general draft of the idea,
- at least a few other ideas, suggestions,...
- maybe a storyboard, a couple of sketch drawings...
- a general project timeline etc.

I know that making all of this is tedious work, but hey, if you have the will, you will find a way ;) You have to understand that the people who work on WZ ressurection have other things to do as well + their personal life, so normaly they tend to do their stuff first - which means that they won't jump right in to any idea or project that anybody writes here... BUT if it is suficiently pre-developed, then it's another story - check out the "Modding board" for instance :3

Anyway, have fun. T.
