Warfork Update #1

Warfork - Caine

Hey all,

We apologize for being so quiet lately, but a substantial amount of time has been put into planning, bringing volunteers on board, and getting things off the ground. Please understand that the total concurrent players will remain low as we're not marketing the game in Early Access. Our goal is to complete the features mentioned in the Early Access FAQ and release in ~January 2020. In the meantime here is a very small update to address some key issues and feature requests.

Note: Server owners please enable automatic updates on your servers. If anyone is looking for an updated server to play on please connect to the forbidden.gg ones.

:: Changes from 2019.08.16 to 2019.10.09

General:
- Added Damage Numbers which can be customized in Options.
- Updated placeholder sounds. Most of the sounds were converted from stereo into mono to make them work correctly in 3D space. Also their volumes were adjusted and normalized in order to avoid clipping and make them more balanced to each other. Some sounds were reworked and swapped to make more the sense. And last but not least, hitsounds are now variable depending on the damage.
- Replaced weapons placeholder sounds with new WIP (Work in Progress) sounds. Note: Please comment with feedback below to help us improve the sounds.
- It is now possible to switch to OpenAL sound module on Windows, as it gets preinstalled by Steam on the game installation.

- Added maps wfca2, wfctf5, wfdm20, wfdm3, wfdm8. Updated wftutorial1 (map description) and wfamphi1's ceiling.
- The console will now display a maximum of 3000 lines instead of 500, which allows commands such as "cvarlist" to be executed and read fully.

Engine:
- Fixed an issue with messing system mouse sensitivity/accel on Windows. Please check that you have "in_dinput" cvar set to 1 via console or config.cfg.
- Don't force team models for local player in-game & while watching demos.
- Change rocket explosion & projectile lights' color to orange.
- Allowed "crouch" animation being shown to others while player model is in the air.

- Servers instantaneously appear on the masterserver list instead of taking 5 minutes
- Specifying 0 as a value for scr_conspeed will result in the console toggling instantly.

Devlog#4 - More environment art, magic combos

Gedonia - Oleg Kazakov

Hello guys! In this devlog I will show some more progress I've made with the game and talk about magic and magic combos I plan to implement in Gedonia,

I've been hard at work on more environments for the game, in particular I've completed basic layout of the main Capital of Gedonia, and started working on Magic Academy.
Tthe main, still unnamed capital city of Gedonia will be pretty small, but very tightly packed zone with living quarters, city market, park, king's castle and gladitorial arena. You will be able to enter most of the houses in the city, check what's inside, talk to people, find different quests.

Gladitorial arena will be a huge part of the game, because you will be able to enter gladitorial contests, fight other champions, become the champion yourself and receive a unique set of items and the title for it!

I've only started on working on Magic academy, which will be huge building with a lot of rooms, housing whole magic faction in it, and containing a lot of interesting magical items, books and secrets. It's located on the shore, away from big cities, but you will be able to find path to it and start learning magic pretty quickly!

Magic and magic combos

Right now there are 5 types of magic planned in Gedonia:

Elemental magic, which allows you to use different fire, water, lightning spells to deal huge damage to your enemies
Arcane magic, which gives you powers to change reality in different ways, like slowing down time, teleporting or even flying
Nature magic which gives you different nature-based buffs and heals or allows you to control animals around you
Holy magic allows you to heal yourself or your allies or destroy undead
Dark magic allows you to deal unholy damage and curse your enemies or raise undead servants

I am planning to implement combos between different magic spells, Some of them will be able to improve or decrease effect of your other spells. Some of them are based in real life physics, for example

You can create a ball of water that will slowly drown your enemy for the limited time, but also will remove all burning effects on the target. If you use freezing spell on it, it will create a huge block of ice that will freeze enemy for the long time. Alternatively, you can use lightning spell to deal double damage to the target and apply a shock effect on it.

Thank you for reading this post, stay tuned for updates.
