New screenshots | Monday, June 4, 2001 10:32 PM |

Man, it really sucks how time seems to zoom past when you're trying to get something done on a deadline. Well, I'm not really on a deadline but that's kind of how it is with Night's Edge. Just when I think I'll be getting a whole lot more time to work on the mod, suddenly my job change leads to even less time. I mean, they won't even let me read my personal email from work, let alone browse or update web pages. That's life, eh? Anyway I know a lot of people are anxiously awaiting the beta, and here's my first public proposed release date: by June 15th. Now I'm going to try to stick to that as best I can, because I go on vacation for a week and a half the day afterwards. Since I won't be able to work on the mod during that time, I figured I ought to finish it up beforehand. Right? So there it is, I'm trying for June 15th. I'm also going to put the frag grenade in, or at least try to. Here's a shot:
 That design was done by The Lamb, a fairly new addition to our team. He also did the Stimpack model, which I'll put posting in our screenshots section. In the meantime, Shadowfire wanted me to present this series of pics that details how the Quickblade weapon came together, starting at concept sketch, to wireframe, to the skinned, final product.

Okay, I know a lot of people are wondering "What's going on with Night's Edge? What's the 411, man? WHEN IS THE BETA COMING OUT?!" Soon! I swear! Except for a few tweaks, the code is DONE. Most all of the weapons I wanted to include are FINISHED. But with a new playmode comes new maps, and that's what we're focusing on now. We've got one map for our Wet Works playmode finished, and several others in the works. I've learned in the past it's best not to skimp on maps when doing releases, so I'm thinking that we should include at least 3 maps in our first beta. I'll keep you all informed.
By the way, keep an eye out for the two Night's Edge interviews which should be posted soon. I'll provide links when they're up. |

New weapon renders | Saturday, April 28, 2001 7:28 PM |
| You've no doubt seen the IMI TAR-21 assault rifle depicted in some of the screenshots I posted a few days ago. I just posted a shot of the weapon as rendered in 3D Studio. In addition, the Sako TRG-22 sniper rifle was recently finished and put into the game. I've also posted a render of that gun. It's a sweet and accurate long-range bolt-action rifle that all you snipers out there will be dying to get your hands on. |
