Official mode support has been announced by the developer for Serious Sam 4. Steam Workshop support for the game, developed by Croatian studio Croteam and published by Devolver Digital, also comes with support.
Serious Sam 4 official mode support is coming
A video was posted promoting incoming mode support for the new game in the series. It shows the purposes for which the engine used by the piecemeal developer team can be used by users. The Serious Engine developer tool promises mod developers a universe full of bad jokes to work on.
With Terrain Editor, you can make various changes to the terrain in the game’s world. You can create new terrains using heightmap files from real locations around the world, or you can create a handmade world using your own imagination. Once you’ve created your world, it’s directly playable, which meansyou can create your own custom map with less effort.
SceneryModeallows you to create your own unique environmental designs for Serious Sam 4. So much so that you can design your own section, both from the ready-made models of the game and from the 3D models you have made yourself. In addition, the Node Shader feature allows you to improve the standard shader features of the game engine. In this way, it is possible to produce materials that are more realistic and respond better to the environment. The ability to program material through nodes we know from Blender and Unreal Engine is also available in Serious Engine.
One of the features of Serious Sam 4, the “Legion” system, is referred to as the “Battle Entity” in the Serious Engine. This system, which allows armies of hundreds or even thousands of artificial intelligence to fight each other, can also be used by mod developers.
Many tools including atmosphere, intermediate scenes, tools, ray tracing technology and more are also available to users with official mode support. If you want to do something about game development, starting mod development can be a good step for that. In an interview with the SpaceBourne developer, the developer stated that’s how he started.
