Welcome to the ZDoom Forums!

For anyone wondering, as for 1.0, it's still incoming. Feeling a bit bad because I promised it in the new year at first, but I've had some mental health issues lately. I'm doing ok, but been a bit burned out on the music and modding stuff over the past few weeks. Please bear with me, I really want ...

You don't sound like a moaner or anything, don't worry about that. Could I ask what exactly puts you off though? Is it that it's further from the original game, or something specific about the changes I made? I'd be interested to hear the feedback.

Ok, sorry for the delay in replying. I have no ...

At the risk of sounding like a moaner (again) the changes to the levels are what's stopping me playing the latest update, so a map pack of the original levels would be lovely.

Seems good so far. Not sure the pickups should be different to the regular pickups though, there's no way to tell what is what based on their graphics until you've learnt what bad guy drops what.

Some surprises in the maps - open space in level 3 now has partitions which makes it a LOT easier than ...

OP was originally asking about difficulty levels - as well as the usual (more/less enemies that deal more/less damage) then adding ammo drops on the easier setting might be a nice addition.

Plus AB3D2 had some graphical tricks that I'm not sure are even possible in current Doom engines - stuff like normal mapped sprites and suchlike.

...Would be nice to have AB3D on PC though.

Oh man, this makes my day, it really does. I've grabbed it and will watch for updates. Once I'm done with Breathless, I'll be all over this like a rash

Many, many thanks!

iirc (and it may be inaccurate as it was 20-odd years ago) but I think they were dropped due to copyright concerns. Too close to the ones that Fox owns.

This is fantastic :) I can only apologise for the level designs; I had no idea what I was doing at the time. Looking forward to playing this tonight and finding out what you've done to the old girl.

I'm sure that if someone who was involved in the original would like to make a map expansion pack ...

Oh, and ahead of this weekend's attempt to do Breathless's levels, do you have any recommendations as to which tools you would ideally use? I'll be starting with just the maps at first, once the sprites are ripped then I'll see about adding enemies and scripting. But it's a very, very long time ...

The original demo had actual honest-to-god Aliens from the film, but green to avoid copyright issues. And yeah, that level rocked hard. Here's hoping that the author of this rather spiffing TC can find it within himself to recreate it.
Stay tuned. ;)

I'll have to express my thanks to Rayman the Hedgehog in here rather than by PM - I can't send PMs yet it would seem. Many thanks, and I'll see what I can get done with this

BTW have you ever seen some of the trailer material for the prototype of Alien Breed 3D? I kind of liked those more humanoid Alien inspired creatures I saw in the screenshots.
To bad those never made it to the final game.

By the way, are there any plans for the sequel to this game to receive a similar treatment in the future? Or maybe some other Amiga FPS (someone mentioned Breathless, and I'm gonna mention Genetic Species)? If not that's fine, just figured I'd ask.

I started working on a Gloom TC for GZDoom some ...
