Epic release completed! CIF3!

I have no idea. Ask Kaiser I guess.

Is it the nature of a joke wad or something is wrong. I see some crazy colors in the textures, commonly. Is that intended?

Anyway, I played this for a couple levels, and is indeed interesting. I'll keep playing tomorrow.

Good work!

Heh, I bugged Kaiser about the weird coloring issues a bunch of times, but there was so much else to do that he decided it wasn't worth the work of fixing it. It's not intended, but it's a side effect of him changing the game palette without modifying the affected textures and sprites to fit.

The ones labelled with numbers are the good ones that were used in CIF3
The rest are all hit and miss and poo.

I asked Kaiser to put me into this wad.

Can't remember exactly where can you find him, he looks like the other marines around him. (red)

I'll only say one thing about this WAD:

I hate - Hate - HATE!!! WADs that force some shitty custom HUD on me without any option to turn it off. Regarding that I didn't bother to play it.

Q: I WANT TO USE THE OLD DOOM HUD WHAAAAA!!
A: CIF3 doesn't use the old Doom Hud. So you must set 'screenblocks' to either 10 or 11.
From the textfile, but I dunno what exactly that does.

That's precisely what I mean. It forces its HUD instead of providing options. And the new HUD flat out sucks. Period.

Good stuff kaiser, though I'm surprised that half the peeps here ain't getting angry over it. Still, the first one TO be angry? Well that was expected!

Yeah! And what's the deal with making you bind separate keys to manipulate the inventory instead of just working with the existing inventory keys? That's counter-intuitive.

That was the one things that highly put me off. I didn't re-bind it to the mousewheel because I'm busy playing other mods as well that do use "proper" inventories.
The advantage though was that you had no limit to the number of items you could carry. I think I recall carrying over 25 Medikits in a firefight once.

Can't that be fixed with a Decorate item, though, by setting Inventory.MaxAmount?

I don't care, I was sucking pretty bad on that fight and used up about 10 of those.

Hello zdoom.org,

Earlier today I downloaded "The Community Is Falling 3" after many months of anticipation. The prospect of a game revolving around happenings in an online community excited me, because many of the best times of my life had their roots in online communities, be they Livejournal, the GameFAQs "Pokemon Social Board", Literotica, or any of the other magnificent websites I have been proud to call myself a part of.

Unfortunately, I was quickly put off by some very offensive material early on in the game. If you have already played the game then you undoubtely remember an early scene in the game, in which the player must confront his so-called "Nazi stepdad". At first, this game was shaping up to be something I could really relate to. For the past 11 years of my life, I have had to live under the roof of my own "Nazi stepdad" (when I was 2, my biological father abandoned my mother and I on our then-annual family trip to Walt Disney World (the one with the giant mouse, not the meatpacking plant)).

But then, not even 5 minutes later, I was shocked and apalled at what the game had in store for me. The frying pan. For the next ten minutes, I was huddled in front of the computer screen, crying myself through a barrage of painful memories and struggling to keep myself from asphyxiating myself with one of the half-cooked Ramen noodles in the bowl next to me.

The memories had taken years to repress, but came flooding back in an instant. This time, they will haunt me forever. I would no longer be able to live a happy life free of the knowledge that, when I was only 9 years old, my stepfather had beaten me to within an inch of my life with a frying pan. Every last little detail about the horrible incident was now at the forefront of my consciousness: the polished wood handle, the sleek black finish, the horrible smell of Teflon clinging to my shattered nose.

For the next five years, I was terrified of cookware. I could only eat foods soft enough for my two and a half remaining teeth-- oatmeal for breakfast, Ramen noodles for lunch, and Sonic the Hedgehog-shaped Spaghetti-O's for dinner-- and only in the comfort of knowing that they would be prepared and served to me in a harmless Tupperware container.

I hope you're proud of yourselves. I hope that my happy little story brought you some shred of amusement at my plight, because I certainly did not leave the situation with any sort of positive emotion of my own. It's just like Christmas at Uncle Herbert's house all over again.

As of writing, the time is now 8:17 PM. I'd love to stay and wax nostalgic with you all, but my Spaghetti-Os have been ready for the past 20 minutes or so, and God knows how fantastic the insulative properties of Tupperware are.
