When people talk about a1 devs in the present tense, I'm never quite sure who they're referring to. Ok, you've got a point. Besides Hopper, there's not much activity. I still think Marathon could grow with enough effort. Weather you consider me stupid or too hopeful is up to you, but I believe. Eh,...

I'v never seen anything like this before in Aleph One, or any old game engine for that matter, props. I'd love to play it when you release it. These would make for some killer DM maps. Most maps are rather abstract for Aleph One, however from what I've seen, this brings in familiarity with realistic...

Well shit, that is impressive. It looks like something straight out of 3D Studio.

Ma man, Looking good!

I'm glad my dark humor amuses you.

I doubt Alpha knows what "doxx" means. Of course I don't know what that means, I don''t speak newspeak . How so? I'm not seeing anything useful out of this besides wasted time. "My strong strait forward personality is very similar to Linus Torvalds's personality." "PC gamer...

I doubt Alpha knows what "doxx" means. It sounds like a word a millennial would overuse. That and the quotes on the twitter page are near direct copies of what he has said on this forum. as a millennial this offends me greatly and i request that you not only check your privilege but also ...

Not quite, build engine games have been doing this since 1995.

sorry about that. if I only I had direct access.

Fallout 3, one of the most highly acclaimed American RPGs of all time, and with a massive community of fans both of the original game and of modding it, and a game good enough to get a spinoff game (New Vegas), was a piece of shit? That's not fact, that's just bandwagon. Come on, we learn this shit...

What is the point of this?

:wacko: Alpha seems to fail to understand that the 68k chipset is nowhere near as unified as the x86-64 architecture. That and Apple always did things their own way even if the processor was the exact same. Look at intel macs and how hard it is to get MacOSX running on non mac hardware. Low level em...

But as it turns out, he wasn't right. Again. I hope more people can come back to this community if for no other reason than to dunk on Alpha. Yeah, alpha can't leave for a week. He's single-handedly restoring the Pfhorums to their former glory. We need to have the pigeon lounge back for people like...

I never owned a Mac. I played Marathon on an Amiga 3000 (68060) via Fusion Emulation to run Mac OS 8.1 back in the day. It was funny as my Amiga (which cost way less) ran the Mac OS better than the Mac hardware. I've never owned a Mac. Technically, you were virtualizing it, not emulating it. Look k...

Christ, it's easier to use English properly than improperly.
This is what I get for trying to type like I use to when I was younger.

If you want to have fun like me, get an AMD 8350 CPU and a 990FX Mobo with 32gb of 1600mhz ram and install ESXi 5.5 on it. It allows PCIe pass-through so you can pipe your video card to your VM. I run OSX, WIndows and an Ubuntu distro this way and can have several people game on the same machine wit...

Save up your money and ditch the mac platform.

I for one noticed when the dev's started to ignore better mouse support requests in mid 2013 (after the engine was rather stable on several platforms) the community began to shrink. I like Marathon for it's story, however the mouse support makes it more tedious instead of fun to play. I eventually s...
