Non-Euclidean Level Design v2

Posted by admin On February - 2 - 2012

Check out my Portal 2 version of this map here: www.youtube.com Version 2 of my non-euclidean level for America’s Army. I only added one room in this version but the video is now HD. This is a level I’ve been working on for the PC game America’s Army using the supplied level editor (a modified version of UnrealEd). The first section of the level is a 720 degree circle. It’s basically a long hallway curled up into a double-circle-type shape, with the ends connected. Sorta like if you take a rubber band and double it up, except the whole band/hallway takes up the same small area. The second area is the impossibly long hallway. At first glance it appears that it’s just a small room with column in the center. Upon further examination, however, the “hallway” connecting the back of the room is many times longer than could ACTUALLY fit there. Imagine it as “squishing” a hundred feet of hallway into a one-foot space. The third area is the room in a closet. The closet only appears to be a couple feet deep and wide, however the room inside it is about a hundred feet both ways. Now step into the closet. The room you just walked out of is now contained neatly in the same small area the closet originally occupied. The fourth area is a long hallway with a small closet at each end. Walking into one closet causes you to walk out of the opposite one. Think of it as a little shortcut. Try wrapping your head around these spaces! (By the way, this was done with UnrealEd’s Zone Portals and

Breathing New Life into a 360, and solving Microsoft’s Design Flaws… By. MASTERMIND aka SuPa NiNjA Sep 26th, 2010 —————————————————— **EXPIERENCE** This isnt my first Rodeo, I’ve fixed PS3s, 360s, Laptops, Over 600 Motherboards, Projectors, Vehicle ECUs, Desktops, Ham Radios, DVD Players, 12 Blueray players, Ballast Repair on Light Fixtures, Gamecubes, Wii’s, Dreamcasts, SNES, NES, Over 65 Console Controllers, and the list is ongoing… I actually look at taking the initiative on finding/fixing electronic design flaws as a hobby. —————————————————— **PRE-INTRODUCTION** I picked up this (Feb 1999 version) Xbox 360 on Craigslist for $40 and it had a E74 Error. I read that the GPU is soldered to the Motherboard using Lead-Free solder. Which is the worst solder to use because it IS NOT HEAT FRIENDLY & can actually start to DE-SOLDER itself at about 200′F. Very close and just under water’s 212′F boiling Point. If only Microsoft used a Lead Based Solder then every console they manufactured would never have seen a RRod or E74 unless the heat fan Failed or it was loaded with dust blocking the heat sinks. —————————————————— **NOTICING MICROSOFTS DESIGN FLAWS** There are many design flaws inside of these Xbox 360’s even with the newer 65nm chipsets which supposed to run cooler than the 95nm chips. A cooler running chip was a very smart idea by Microsoft but didnt necessarly

Game Design with Will Wright

Posted by admin On May - 2 - 2010

[Recorded November 20, 2003] Will Wright has become one of the most successful designers of interactive entertainment in the world. He began working on what would become SimCity—The City Simulator in 1985. Using a complex technique, he found a way to bring realistic simulations to desktop PCs. Previously simulations of this sort were only available to the military, scientists and academicians. However, using an easy to use graphic interface, the world of simulations opened up to consumers. Wright co-founded Maxis (now part of Electronic Arts) with Jeff Braun in 1987. SimCity was released in 1989, and within a few months became a hit. The game has since won 24 domestic and international awards. With Fred Haslem, Wright co-designed SimEarth—The Living Planet in 1990, a simulation of a planet based on the Gaia theory of James Lovelock. In 1991, Wright and Justin McCormick designed SimAnt—The Electronic Ant Colony, a scientifically-accurate simulation of an ant colony. SimCity 2000, and SimCopter, a helicopter flight game, are also part of Wright’s recent repertoire. SimCity 3000 Unlimited, the definitive version of 1999s best-selling game SimCity 3000, continued in the tradition. The long-awaited 4th generation, SimCity 4, was released in January 2003. Taking computer entertainment to its most personal level, Wrights ground-breaking game The Sims, puts players in charge of the lives of a neighborhood of simulated people. Released in February of 2000, this wildly popular
