FAKK2 Installed :)

[Doom_Dude]

Installed Heavy Metal FAKK2 yesterday. So far it's pretty kewl. Like using the swords but those flying thinghys are a pain. The graphics are really something to look at. Almost like walking through something straight from outta the heavy metal magazine, which is kewl. It's a 3rd person perspective game like Heretic II but you character is modeled after Julie Strain, which is fun. http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/biggrin.gif

Mods never seem to make it to the finishing point. At least that's how it seems in the Doom community. There's Goldeneye hosted here at Newdoom, and what's going on with that!?? Then there's Deim, of course, Ghostbusters, and a bunch of Doomworld-related projects. The last big TC release I remember seeing was Batman Doom, which was pretty good. That also was a while in the making.

Yeah Mods are too much work.

I just fought a weird assed Boss in Fakk 2. This big plant thinghy with claws kept chewing me bad. The damned thing was tough but I finished it with the plasma shotgun. One of the better bosses I've seen in awhile (except for RTCW). Totally different to say the least and it kept zapping me with this electrical blast.

It's not even close to a RPG. Its just a shooter in the 3rd person perspective. It kicks the shit out of Tomb Raider. The controls / camera jobby are like playing Heretic II.

Yep. They're done by Cavedog. Those guys have RTS engine technology years ahead of anyone else, Westwood and Blizzard included. They never did that wacky 3D stuff, but their terrain has always been nice smooth 3D surfaces and their models move smoothely. Their interface is fast and bug free (unlike westwood) and the build setup is awesome. You can queue up as many units as you want. All the building construction is done with vehicles and bots so you can assign multiple orders to them and just let them go. They have an amazing array of units too. All this and the interface is dead simple. Oh yeah, the TA soundtrack is awesome! They got a massive orchestra to play it.

That was a real fun game. It was kewl that if you got lost you could call in a unit to come pick you up.

I like gore. Not sure why. I think it's because I started playing shooters when I was really young and became accustomed to gore. Zack and my little brother are the same. I prefer realistic gore though to too much silly gore like Duke3D or ROTT. In Duke3D you could die and see your own head and torso go flying.

Some guy made a HL demo map where you're in this room with two scientists. One is on a see-saw and the other is standing on a plank sticking out over the edge of a tall crate. When you move, the plank breaks and the guy lands on the other end of the see-saw. The guy who was standing on the far end gets shot straight up into a waiting ceiling fan and guts spew everywhere.

From the Goldeneye DooM II page I found a Goldeneye HL mod. It's cool but it always crashes on my new box. Some of the levels look better than in the original game! Except the bunker where the guy who made the map (there are a bunch of guys) used light entities instead of texture lights and ruined it. All you have to do is add your custom texture to the lights.rad file. It's a joke really.

Yep. I just tried that thinghy in Legacy and it kicks some arse! For some reason I had a left-over from another patch in there and all the shotguns are now plasma rifles with lots of cells, but that's okay. Gives you more ammo to play with. The coronas are even right on the fireballs. The fireballs are less powerful than plasma shots though so you have to use more of them.

Just select the file, hit the rename thinghy in the right-click menu (or just click it again or use F2) and change the part of the name after the dot. That's all you do. You might not have the extensions showing in your copy of Windows. In that case you have to open a window, go to the Tools menu, go to Folder Options, and into the View tab from there. You find the box that says "Hide extensions for known filetypes" and uncheck it.

I'm surprised someone hasn't shown you that yet. I found it when I was 13 and I was playing with my best friend. It's funny cause he used to teach me stuff and now I teach him stuff.

LOL. Well the only explanation I had before was 'just change the file extension!' and that was it. http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/tongue.gif

I had to learn for making .bat files for Duke3d maps in grade eight. The .bat files were good for launching the game in a real hurry.

They're great. You can use them for quick install proggies or launchers for wads that have a bunch of files and cvars to set in Legacy. The Aliens TC used one to install. I might make one for some Legacy stuff sometime. The simplest ones only have a command line in them. They have their own commands though including conditional checks that can be used to install correct versions or create text menus and stuff.

You should make a pack of flats to match a bunch of the textures. Everyone wants one of those. There, now I pestered you. http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/biggrin.gif

Just convert the DooM palette to greyscale and all the textures, sprites and other pics with it. It would look cool.

Time to call up someone else like Mystic or Kaiser. Darkwolf is the only guy with that kind of experience with the palettes though.
