            Will it have a Level Two?

            Seriously, no one could accuse you of not giving plenty back to the world of Knightmare. I look forward to learning more about KMV, and hope that we will all be in on the secret before long. Keep up the good work, as they say.

              Blimey, that's not looking bad at all, very nice work indeed!

              My only worry is that this would seem that the original RPG is now officially abandoned, which would be an extreme shame given five whole years of work amounting to absolutely nothing. But this looks pretty good indeed!

                That does look very pleasant to the eyes.

                In terms of the actual RPG itself, there is nothing 'official' about it's current status beyond that no work is currently being done for it (to the best of my knowledge, anyhow, unless someone is secretly working away at the footage). However, there is a little hope if a few things can be sorted out.

                Anyhow, good luck with the project, Mystara.

                  Perhaps I'm jumping the gun here but Mystara DID say that 'content' was needed...

                  We DO have at least 2 (Possibly 3) years of blue Screen RPG footage without a home right now. Maybe 1+1 = ?

                  Even though I haven't seen them move, the screenshots look extremely impressive. Please for more!

                    A level two could be added...for those not good enough to skip it out and jump directly to level 3!

                    Unfortunaely, the old RPG footage isn't going to be particularly usable in this instance., sorry

                    As for making it move...soooon

                      Sorry for being thick, but what is the nature of the curious thing called KMV?

                        The pic's easy on the eye, but I'd like to see a moving version of it before I make a judgement. It'd look more KM-like if the portals were darkened by the way.

                          I think I'll allow you all to speculate amongst yourselves as to its nature...for now. I'll hopefully give more of an update in due course. I don't want to disappoint by showing anything that I'm not satisfied with!

                          HStorm - it's actually not a portal, so no worries

                          Incidentally, these screenshots are in compressed JPEG format. They look better here. Next screenshots will have a high and low res version

                            (Brief foray off topic coming up...)

                            My only worry is that this would seem that the original RPG is now officially abandoned, which would be an extreme shame given five whole years of work amounting to absolutely nothing.

                            Billy, I understand your disappointment, but if I may say so, it wasn't 'absolutely nothing' for those of us involved! Unfortunately, as I see it, the fruits of our labour can't really be shared with the wider Knightmare fan community without a very considerable amount of post-production work being done willingly by a sizeable team of volunteers. (And that's assuming that a decent portion of the community would then be interested.) It simply doesn't seem possible at the moment. I have my reasons for currently being unable to help, and others have their reasons. Nevertheless, I do feel apologetic about the matter.

                            I've been working on a new project (named KMV) as a potential replacement for the now rather defunct Knightmare RPG.

                            If the outward lack of progress on the Knightmare RPG is part of what inspired KMV, fair enough. But other than that, I'm not sure that the status of one should be linked to the other. I concur with Kieran's opinion that the RPG is not officially defunct: to quote the creator of Knightmare - our ultimate inspiration - 'maybe it's just sleeping?'

                              I probably didn't phrase it so well

                              I rather meant that from the view of an outsider, it seems to be "missing presumed dead". That's not to say it's officially gone - just that it's hard to see it coming back.

                              I also probably shouldn't have implied there was any link between KMV and the lack of progress on the RPG. Rather that those interested in the RPG would be likely to find an interest in this and see it as some kind of potential "fix" for missing their beloved RPGness!

                                  Damn right it does

                                  I'll try and provide some kind of an update this weekend. If we get an area finished off then I'll demo that. If not, I'll give a nice demo of the openGL lighting system which is rather sexy.

                                  In other news...our website is up, and content has slowly started being added. Should be available for public viewing soooon.

                                    As promised, another image for you...

                                    A higher quality version of the same image can be found here:

                                    http://alan.alwebwiz.net/lighting_hi.jpg

                                    This shows off some nice openGL lighting effects that we have. It's still a part of our test area (new area is still being worked on sadly)

                                      G'day,

                                      Just to let you know that the website for KMV has now been launched and may be found here:

                                      http://kmv.partreal.net

                                      It's slowly being updated, but currently contains details of the project and what it's all about

                                      Cheers!

                                        I've just checked out the website. The piccytures are indeed pleasant on the eye and the whole prospect of it does interest me a lot. I never got involved in the original RPG but I'd definitely be interested in checking this out, though since the progress of the teams will be recorded for online playback I sure hope I don't suck
