| Wolf-359 is a space trading computer game Travel from planet to planet. Trade goods. Explore new worlds and make a living as privateer, merc or outlaw - that is the game Wolf 359 is about. The game is in the style of the legendary Elite and so a lot of content will be similar to that great game but of course it won't be an Elite II. What's all about? The player starts his adventure as the protagonist Max de Laudry with an old ship of the Mantis class, hunted by a secret organisation which tries to possess the data crystal of his father. Having a poor equipment and only a few credits the player has the choice to trade goods, take assignments or to become illegal immediately.  The universe of Wolf 359 offers a lot of different ships, trading posts, planets and moons. More at: http://www.wolf-359.de/index_en.html |

The background is too orange - add the Eye of God: Your game will then be good and everyone will like it. |
| ||
| I like it. The texturing on the station and the ship, and the station interior in particular, are looking good! |
| ||
| I loved the contrast between the hull of that station and it's "docking room" or whatever, that's lit and blue. |
| ||
Here is the Ship of the protagonist De Laudry. The MA-1 Mantis. This is the render from Blitz. http://www.wolf-359.de |
| ||
All 4 finished ships for wolf-359 in scale. |
| ||
| Nice :D |
| ||
Here is the commodity 3d screen where you can buy and sell. |
| ||
| I like the updated image! |
| ||
| Is the game going to be a bit like Freelancer? |
| ||
| Yes it is a mix from different games such like Elite and Privateer. http://www.wolf-359.de |
| ||
| As your website is in German, will the game be in German as well? No English? |
| ||
| Yes it is a mix from different games such like Elite and Privateer. Cant wait I still play Elite and Freelancer :) |
| ||
| We had an english forum. My english is not good enough sorry for this. The game will be in english and german. http://www.wolf-359.de/phpBB3/index.php |
| ||
| My opinion only, but this has the potential to be the best thing ever made with B3D. The graphics are awesome and so far it seems it has been planned out very well. |
| ||
| Eh? |
| ||
| Hello GeryV, If you mean Wolf-359, we stay at the beginning of the development. I can't say when the first beta will be playable. At this moment you can fly around in a small solar system and you can dock and undock at a station. The next step is a second System with a station where you can buy and selling goods between the stations. |
| ||
| Hi all, thanks for the comments and thanks sung for the great graphics. :) Actually the game will be in English (of course) and German. I'll translate the website as well to support both English and German. Currently there is only a forum to discuss some things which is mainly in English. :D Confused? *gg* Right, we are still heavy in development and so far BB3D works very well. The only disadvantage I had so far is the lack of double precision (I need that for absolute system position numbers and floating point precision for relative positioning and scaling). I use a DLL to solve that. |
| ||
| Alright, made an English version of the page. There are two language flags now... Default is still German... |
| ||
| can you make the flags bigger, missed em earlier when I looked |
| ||
| A little vid on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qU7ZHEe8UQ |
| ||
| looks good :) |
| ||
| It does look good, but the space station is too evenly lit. How much ambient light are you using? In my previous work, I kill ambient light and then apply it dynamically - this is better than that of Egosoft's X3 reunion which looks amateur compared to mine. |
| ||
| Its not the real light, because i made this vid mit MovieMaker. Here is another version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEbydQuNQu8 |
| ||
| lighting doesnt look that much different from the previous video |
| ||
| Isn't Wolf-359 the location used in Star Trek : TNG as the location in season 2 where they mounted an attack and lost a huge amount of the fleet to the Borg? (Yes, I'm a Trekkie :D) |
| ||
| Wolf 359 is a real star in a distance of 7.7 light years from earth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_359 |
| ||
| Isn't Wolf-359 the location used in Star Trek : TNG as the location in season 2 where they mounted an attack and lost a huge amount of the fleet to the Borg? Season 3 finale/Season 4 premiere. I am so not cool. |
| ||
What is Star Trek? ^^  |
| ||
| OT: Its amazing the number of people (not specifically here, just generally) who think Gene Roddenberry invented Wolf 359 and Alpha Centauri. |
| ||
| Startrek really happened. its real damit. |
| ||
| OT: Its amazing the number of people (not specifically here, just generally) who think Gene Roddenberry invented Wolf 359 and Alpha Centauri. Yeah that is amazing, everybody knows Sid Meier invented Alpha Centauri :p |
| ||
| Please make it like Hardwar. That was one awesome game. |
| ||
| Startrek really happened. its real damit You're confusing Star Trek with Galaxy Quest. ;-) |
| ||
| Please make it like Hardwar. That was one awesome game. There are three people on this forum who were on the QA team for Hardwar. |
| ||
| I didn't know something about Hardwar. If you want you can give us some informations about the gameplay. Xaron and I are infected by elite and privateer. Was Hardwar released in germany? |
| ||
| Hardwar - very fun game. There are three people on this forum who were on the QA team for Hardwar. thats cool, just outta interest who? btw Sung/Xaron your game looks like it's gonna be very good. |
| ||
| Man I love hardwar, still play it on occasions |
| ||
| The only advice I could give about Hardwar is the cheat for access to the God hangar, but I guess that's ancient news. Oh, and dogfighting is much easier if you fly backwards. The AI will make straight for you and always be in your line of fire. thats cool, just outta interest who? JustLuke, Jon_E_5, and me. Those two had an awesome design document drawn up for Hardwar 2 in minute detail, but the powers that be weren't interested in a sequel. |
| ||
| gfk another way to kill anything is to ram it firing as ships that were in a collision moved away from you making them easy kills. |
| ||
| Short vid. docking, star map, hyperspace jump http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdo_ECYbbH4&feature=channel_page |
| ||
| I love the music - I love what I assume is a warp tunnel at 35 seconds into the clip. |
| ||
| Awesome looking vid, Sung! |
| ||
| Yay, great one sung! :) |
