Tacticular Cancer: We'll have your balls

  1. Having trouble staying logged in? Note: We are rpgcodex.NET not .COM. Trying to login via .com will cause issues. Make sure you are on rpgcodex.net to login and all will be fine.

    And if the Password Recovery doesn't work (there was an error transitioning accounts during the upgrade), use the "contact us" link right down the bottom right of the forums and harass us about it. Include your account name and its e-mail address (or whatever parts of it you remember).

    "This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

    Isometric but with 3d models, don't mess around with sprites son, that's living in the past. :M You'd have to be crazy to animate all those sprites from different camera angles like they did in Fallout :/

    Or if you're doing something quick and dirty, use a 2d engine and tileset (see the previous post)

    Fallout used animated 3d models converted to 2d (probably automatically) and touched up.

    I voted 2d isometric but I would be fine with 2d tiles, like the U5 screens posted last page. True isometric is a lot of effort.

    Hate "cartoony" graphics, hate dealing with a 3d camera.
