On another note, it's been almost a year since this video was put up. Any news on what's going on with the map? Been hankering to slaughter some xenos.
This map has been on development all time regardless my inactivity on forums and such. My "Aliens TC" project is healthy and going forward! But it is a very big and complicated TC to make alone so it will take some more time until it sees the light, though I'm planning to release a public demo soon.
I also want to take this comment to state that Kontra Kommando and I have no relation with each other neither our TCs/Mods except some stuff we shared years ago. He only used my map to make a YouTube video and we talked to make a project together until he dissapeared and ceased communication like on LV-426
Now that I have taken my time to explain this it will be a good idea to update my thread with some news. Best regards!
IWAD: DOOM2
TESTED WITH: GZDOOM 3.7.2, GZDOOM 3.2.4
SINGLE PLAYER (adding multiplayer at a later time)
Play as 4 different classes, each with it's own story, starting inventory, gameplay, item/monster placement and more! (press F1 in-game for more info)
Enemies and items are placed in the traditional manner instead of random spawners allowing players to learn and develop winning strategies.
The Aliens have risen again on planetoid LV426 at Weyland/Yutani corporation's best kept secret...A second colony! They still want the creature for research.
MANY WAYS TO PLAY:
Spoiler:
Spoiler:
All difficulty settings are implemented as well as each class presenting it's own unique difficulty.
The easiest setting ("A FEW ALIENS") is more about tension, atmosphere and one on one encounters. The hardest ("HORDES OF ALIENS")
puts you in a near impossible setting. "LOTS OF ALIENS" is closest to a medium setting and "SWARMS OF ALIENS" is very hard. "GAME OVER, MAN" is the Nightmare setting (not recommended:).
HOW TO PLAY:
Spoiler:
UNZIP the folder and run both files (pk3 and wad) with the pk3 first and the wad second.
The ALIENS: TRILOGY PAYLOAD EDITION.pk3 can be used with any iwad and most pwads to turn them into Alien experiences.
The ALIENS: ERADICATION.wad will only work with the bundled pk3 as it has been modified for this project.
KNOWN ISSUES:
Spoiler:
Depending on the resolution you play at, the full-screen hud may not scale right or be off the screen entirely. In every case I was
able to adjust the "Scale Factor" slider in the "Set Video Mode" option screen (use the arrow keys for fine tuning) to make it fit
properly. Not sure how to fix this. Suggestions welcomed.
TESTING:
Spoiler:
This is still a work in progress so any and all participation/feedback is welcomed.
I recommend playing on the "LOTS OF ALIENS" difficulty setting until you are familiar with the monster/weapon mechanics.
CREDITS:
Spoiler:
All credits are listed on the in-game INFO screen or in a Read me file included in the wad.
A special thanks to KONTRA KOMMANDO and his team for permission to use his ALIENS: TRILOGY
and ULTIMATE DOOM mods for this project.
