This may be mentioned, but what ever happened to Vector?

After watching the Numen demo, I am definately excited by the possibilities. Is there some way to convert old doom or duke 3d levels to the Vector format to help speed level development?

I guess he did not get the level designers he was looking for. IMO, he should release the engine and the level-design tools with some instructions and any completed levels. The community will either build some nice levels or not. But it is his code and hard work and if he does not want to do that, it is his decision.

 

Personally, I am saddened that this may never be released, even in an unfinished form.

Yea, really weird. The thread starts to talk about how fox has this team establisihed to work on it (he names them, ) then tells interested parties to use the forum itself to get the job done, and then no-one does that, it just died right after that.

Well,

 

He never specified what he had therefore how could folks volunteer to build something without know how they would do it.

 

If a lvl editor existed I would gladly help, if I had to write 6502 ASM to build a lvl then I couldnt.

 

He asked for help but provided few details on exactly what type of people were needed
