Lung desease? That sounds bad, quit smoking :wink:

2. Could you/we/whoever wait with that, because I plan a bit more polishing on the Hells Fury!

5.I think it should be some kind of reward for 100% in the cumulative stats, this has been considered before IIRC

6. Hmm, maybe something personal for each participant of the project, well hidden in the map the person worked on the most time (maybe some zdoom-forum-in-jokes)

Bloodskull dropped out? What a misunderstanding.

Never mind. I didn't write it!

@Vader - Das ist ja das Schlimme :) Bin stolzer Nichtraucher und hab trotzdem ne Bronchitis wie ein Nikotinabhängiger im Endstadium ;)
Concerning 2. no problem about that! Concerning 5. actually it is very, very hard to do so I have no idea if it is okay :-/ Concerning 6. good idea, as long as nobody knows about the eastereggs placed for himself (as in E1M1 ;))

Do not discuss easter eggs here... if the rest are to be real surprises, we must not write them in public.

Torm: Thanks for putting that info together, I will definitely be pulling from it. Also, can you find a place for the team to meet and discuss when we are ready to move to the next stage of the project?

Let me just say I think this project is truly awesome and I am very much anticipating it.

Way to go, NMN and crew :)

And let me just say this: All this hooplah over the copyright stuff is BOGUS. You have nothing to fear. You have the right to parody and you are not using the original levels as a base for these.

Now stop this silly discussion. Thank you.

@Dittohead - As I already said via AIM: We based our maps on the originals (except E1M9).

@Risen - Well, I already suggested asking randy for a KDiZD developement forum just available for teammates (we just need it about 1-2 months, nothing more). That's all I can suggest. And btw: I add some more stuff to the KDiZD section from time to time!

Aww... that's no fair. I like reading about all this, even though I have no skills to add. ;)

WRONG.
At least in the music industry. Using any copywritten matrial in sampling without permission is thought to be the same as bootlegging.
I think the same would apply here.
Yes, even in the UK. Freelance Hellraiser caught a lot of heat for using illegal samples in his work.

Everyone who wishes us luck and has faith in us is my personal friend :) Really becomes visible that all this work done for the community was not a waste-appreciation from those whom we work for is nothing better for this project. Just play it :D

Testing last night:
- Risen, BioHazard, MrMan
- M8 tested very poorly. It will need quite a bit of work to get right. All the cuscenes assume there is a single player, and it really messes things up!
- M9 tested significantly better. Problems were mostly minor, except that the ending is still not up to par.

My stupid computer is having problems again. I think my primary drive is failing. That's not good. (And yet, unsurprising...) Anyway, it is inhibiting my ability to work on the maps, since drive-intensive activity to the page file is causing read failures. I made some more progress on M7, but I'm still not where I'd like to be. I'm going to see what I can do about this drive ASAP.

Edit: Graf Zahl: I'd like to see if your programming skill can spot the problem with the intermap. I'm preparing a version for you with all the scripts intact. Would you like to help me?

@Risen - Is there anything I could do for you? As already said, I am also ill and lie in my bed these days, but between the times, I could do something for KDiZD due to the fact that I have lotsof free time right now .... (you see the KDiZD section ;))
