Marathon and System Shock: A tale of inspiration and imitation

The Powerslave and PID comparison I did before doesn't have nearly as many similarities to that of System Shock and Marathon & PID. The latter actually has way more than I thought they'd have. Listed is a series of talkthroughs of the two System Shock games (at time of writing them) with a total...

Of PID and Powerslave: A comparison of Pathways into Darkness and a console counterpart

I've recently done a comparison of PID, Marathon and a Metroidvania game I noticed some minor similarties with called Powerslave. I aim to do one for System Shock as well, whose comparisons to PID & Marathon are a lot more noticable. Part 1, Intro and DOS Build Engine version: http://forums.bung...

Re: Aleph One 1.6.1 doesn't work with Tempus Irae and Evil

Apparently you should post the details tab from your screen. This might be true of all of those errors, not sure. Might make sense to just copy & paste, if it’ll let you. Also you might want to run sfc.exe if it’s the same thing as this error , but I have no idea whether it is or not. OK. Posti...

Re: Aleph One 1.6.1 doesn't work with Tempus Irae and Evil

One of the Aleph One devs is suggesting that you should check your application event viewer and report back with the results. Which category in the event viewer is Aleph One under? I've never used it before. Also yes, the trilogy works. EDIT: Nevermind. Uploading image. https://64.media.tumblr.com/...

That's what I did. Same for EVIL Preferences.

Re: Aleph One 1.6.1 doesn't work with Tempus Irae and Evil

Try deleting (or at least renaming) your preferences for both scenarios. My guess is they’re both corrupt. See https://github.com/Aleph-One-Marathon/alephone/wiki/File-Locations for the locations. Tried with Tempus Irae first. Didn't change anything. That's after deleting both in the Aleph One pref...

Re: Aleph One 1.6.1 doesn't work with Tempus Irae and Evil

I just loaded both of them in Aleph One 1.6.1 without a hitch. I suggest downloading fresh copies; yours may have gotten corrupted somehow. You may also want to run a hard drive scan to check for other corrupted sectors and possibly a malware/antivirus scan to rule that out as a cause for the corru...

Re: Eternal X 1.2

We've released a preview build of Eternal 1.3 . This is by no means a finished product (I’ve already found a hall of mirrors glitch on “Unlucky Pfhor Some”, which I’m embarrassed I didn’t notice). Nonetheless, this represents some two years of work that wasn’t rolled into Eternal 1.2.1 because we d...

Re: Is there a way to view the HD plugin sprites in Shapefusion?

ShapeFusion? No. You’ll need something to convert DDS files. Aorta can do it on Macs. On Windows, I use an Nvidia plugin for Photoshop which you can probably just find by searching for “Nvidia DDS Photoshop plugin”. Thank you.

Is there a way to view the HD plugin sprites in Shapefusion?

It's so I can extract the bitmaps like I did with the default ones and PID A1. Basically I want to use Marcus's sprites to create an avatar like the image below and I prefer the HD sprites for said purpose as they aren't a low resolution mess, preferably in a Vroid studio model if I can somehow do i...

Re: PID A1 Ghasts

This is just a guess, but there are possibly different CLUTs used for the same images if the only difference is coloration. That isn't necessarily the same thing as being "treated as a rank", like minor/major variations, which is a physics thing rather than a shapes thing. I see. So the g...
