Segmentation Fault posted:Does that sentinel appear anywhere in Scythe 2? I played through it and I couldn't find it. MoD was basically made for BTSX E1, my experiences playing E1 informed many of the design decisions I made when creating MoD. The no reloading option was added almost entirely because of Tough Skin River. I haven't tried it much with E2 because I find E2 ridiculously hard even on HNTR. I'm currently having a lot of fun playing MoD with Jenesis on HMP. Jenesis takes around 10 maps to really get rolling but from Ruins on it's great. As for the status bar bug, yeah that's a known issue, I'm going to make a variant status bar for 4:3. Woolie Wool fucked around with this message at 23:51 on May 3, 2015 |

It comes from the A_SkullPop function, from Hexen and Heretic, and it detaches the players control from the body onto the "head" that just popped, making resurrection impossible.

Yes, if you're gibbed your helmet (with your severed head inside) flies away and the camera follows the helmet and bounces off of surfaces. It's quite startling when you get surprise splattered by a cyberdemon.

That description for MadSpace confuses me.quote:News has come back to Earth of an intergalactic war rapidly approaching. A Krakin spacecraft is rapidly approaching Earth. After Humans and their Kerkop allies take one last stand against their enemies, they are victorious but the Krakin ship still remains. The Kerkop flee and Mankind is left on the edge of extinction. There is only one hope left. You.

Wow, Madspace rereleased on Steam? Now that's a huge surprise. Definitely grabbing it later this week. Skipping ZAR though, I have the Windows rerelease copy somewhere, and I remember that 4th level or so is a bullshit hard defend solar panels or die deal. Wondering what obscure FPS is Night Dive going to hunt next. Killing Time? Chasm and Carnivores? ZPC oh god please lei it be ZPC please

Given how much of a pain in the rear end it is to secure the rights to old games and also make them work on new systems, I wonder how profitable these obscure releases are for Night Dive. Maybe they're primarily motivated by branding and portfolio building to help out in more important negotiations (cough NOLF cough).

http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=47801&start=360 First beta of WolfenDoom: Blade of Agony is out. Been playing it a bit. It's pretty good, the devs really put some effort into it. It would have been nice if they somehow made the player slightly shorter, because right now you tower like a foot over everyone, but I like to think it's juts because BJ is a big guy.

I've... I've played too much Demonsteele.  Now normal Doom feels weird to me, hitscan enemies are extra irritating! I can take being hit when I gently caress up and dont dodge it, but unavoidable attacks are noticeably frustrating now!

Still a little disappointed he's doing the PS1 version instead of the Saturn one. I know the differences are more subtle than anything else, but still, it's the Saturn version I got used to <_<

There are comments on his blog that suggest he only has time for one version or the other and that he went with the PSX version.

So there's going to be a paid version of Black Mesa? Something I'm seeing repeated a lot right now is that the free Black Mesa mod is considered "the first half" of the game...but it seems like Black Mesa covered a lot more than half of the original game. I definitely couldn't see paying for something I've been able to get for free for several years (but now with the addition of Xen). And that's coming from somebody who actually thought Xen was kind of interesting. I wonder what else is being brought back/rebuilt. Maybe BM's Xen is going to be considerably larger?

According to this, the paid version will have multiplayer, Workshop support for mods, new graphics (including things like all-new weapon models) and will be supported by the devs a lot more than the free version will be.

If you told anyone six months ago that the final Black Mesa would be a paid product they'd call you nuts. Regardless I love me some Half-Life and what's out of Black Mesa already is loving amazing, so with the new multiplayer and workshop support (workshop-supported custom SP/MP maps is definitely in the books) I'd definitely pay for this.

Black Mesa Source was high enough quality that I'm happy kicking them $20 or whatever just to keep them working, but I don't know what would even be the point of having MP on it - HL2DM and DMC still have players kicking around if you really want to play those. I hope they do plan on releasing Xen for the free version, though.

The paid version feels like it's more about supporting the devs and getting some neat extras from it instead of forcing people to pay in order to get Xen.

Going off the post that was linked: quote:The free version is basically the mod release, ported to a new engine, with some bug fixes. That's mostly it. No mention of Xen there, and that dev lists "constant updates, new features, active development" as features of the paid version. That said, that post is from six months ago, so we basically don't know anything about their plans right now.  Also, honestly, not getting Xen would probably be something you can advertise as a feature of whichever version doesn't have it.

Anyone recommend using Xash3D for old HL mods? I have a WON version set up and it works fine, but I was wondering if there are any good advantages for using Xash3D instead.

I played it and hated it!!! The military was poo poo they spent a million years building this poo poo and half life 1 is still miles better.
