MIRROR 1
(The mirror link will be restored as soon as the new version is on the mirror).
A new version has been uploaded as of the last edit time.
Changelog
11-12-09 v1.0RC3
-wgx3.map has some bug fixes to prevent the player from cheating
-bleeding now occurs only from melee attacks
-armor absorbs a higher percentage of damage (and runs out faster)
-because the lack of bleeding and better armor makes the game much easier, monster damage has been changed:
Piece of Cake 50%
Let's Rock 75%
Come Get Some 100%
It's a Good Day to Die 125%
-added a new pal of shotgun demon that sometimes appears on GD2D difficutly
-updated some of the game tips and formatted them better
-Fixed a bug causing dead fish to be targetted by player allies
-Fixed a bug involving queued rockets
-All semi-visible monsters now become completely visible when goggles are used
-Minor changes to the big Death Knight boss near the end of wgx2.map (he spawns minions less often but sometimes uses a lightning aura)
-Changed the final boss so now it's impossible to kill him in 10 seconds before he gets to do much of anything
Known bugs/issues
-After a random amount of gameplay (usually 20 minutes or so), some sounds do not play correctly. To restore sound to normal, you need to quit eduke and then start it again (sound will work correctly for a while after you load your saved game).
-There's a rare glitch which can cause the sky in some sectors to not return to their normal color after using Quad Damage. I can't reproduce it, and there is nothing I can see wrong with the code that changes sky color.
-Recent builds of EDuke32 have been known to freeze every once in a while. Sometimes I can go through an entire game without it happening at all, sometimes it happens twice in one level. It also varies a lot from one computer to another.

Also I found a bug in level 1, I was fooling around the level before accessing the first chest and apparently the magician guy dude made the gold appear somewhere else in the level and I couldn't find it.

I think WGR1 is the best Duke mod EVER. The atmosphere is jsut unique.
Also is the wizzard still supposed to follow me in level 2? cause he disappeared, maybe that's why I'm stuck?

EDIT : A bug I've noticed. The chainsaw's offsets are wrong. The weapon looks like it's flying when you run around.

I don't know if you have to kill all the killerbees in order to unlock something, but I couldn't reach them with my chainsaw in any case. Any help?
edit: Nevermind - found it!

By the way, just discovered something fishy, check the textures count in this image.
This happens after being killed a few times and reloading a savestate.

i just read "Multiplayer weapons/switches.
Pal 1 = COOP
Pal 2 = DM"
in the manual,so WGR2 is suppossed to work in multiplayer?(maybe in the future?)
oh and there is a strange bug with the eduke32.exe in the zip,when i've tried to play with it (in multiplayer),we got always the same "multiplayer id" so the game crash...
It occurs always (with or without WGR2 mod)...
i've downloaded the snapshot from the official eduke32 website and it work now...

The eduke32.exe included with wgr2 is more recent, and it fixes a few bugs. For example, if you use the last official snapshot, the game will crash at the end and you won't get to see the end of the game.

I don't think my counting code is broken, I'm pretty sure that level has the number it says. WG will have to confirm that. When the map starts for the first time, there's some code that counts all the apples, and adds the number of possible apples that could spawn (from respawns, etc.), and the same for ammo packs.

Try unzipping into an empty folder instead and see what happens (the TC is entirely self-contained and doesn't need anything from your Duke folder to run). I'm guessing you have managed to override the art from WGR2 with your own custom art in your Duke folder.

Yeah that level has that many, its not a bug, I guess I can remove 1 of each to make it more normal.

The final boss fight with jump boots felt somewhat fresh. =)
The TC itself is full of things borrowed from different games, there are very few original things. Definitely, this is bad.
I liked the impressive level design, gameplay is quite interesting, lighting rocks but visibility haze is too heavy outdoors... new blood & gore FX is wonderful. However, I've noticed COUNTLESS bugs with textures, geometry etc. I had several crashes when just walking around.
I don't like the new HUD at all, random and untidy. HUD weapon sprites look just ugly. And I found irritating those souls following me everywhere. Duke 3D isn't like Oddworld.
Imho, first WGR was better.
Anyway, thanks for this, I'll be waiting for next releases. =)
