Its a large map with 7 errors.

And an age old version of Mapster32.

Looks like a bad dream.

Better than porn.

[HellFire]

Thats awesome. So how did you extracted it? The sprite data is stored separately?

A *ahem* nightmare, if you will?

I just didn't copy it over at first.

I have already started assigning the proper tile numbers to new arts ripped by Nfelli. For instance some tiles are missing from Nfelli pack: a chain and pools of liquid in Hulk's toilet in Gates Motel.

Edit: Cyberkeef replaces the Newbeast among other conflicts with Atomic Edition, so you can't have Plug and Pray and The Birth together.

Would there be a point of having The Birth when you have Plug N Pray? Are you using these rips too? http://forums.duke4....and-tiles-rips/

[Fox]

Ahhh, maybe that's the guy who ripped the tiles I am using, not Nfelli. I have no idea.

[Lunick]

Do they look good in-game at least? They didn't look too pretty by themselves.

Replaced the chaingun with a Repeating Railgun. Damage per shot is less than the blaster, ammo maxes have been bumped up and ammo pickups increased.

Testing it out on some destructibles below...





The pickup needs to be scaled up a little.

Made use of the chaingun's split sprites to make the gun jiggle more. Jiggly.

Very impressive. Glad to see this is becoming a possibility after all these years.

Is it possible to extract the CON code from the PSX port as well? You've theorized about some of the game's CON oddities already, such as the dropped used armor pickups, but it seems like there are other strange things as well. For example, you mentioned a while ago that Duke's PSX line "No one wears flares and lives!" was unused and probably intended as the intro line for Cyberkeef. However, according to the game footage I've seen, it looks like it's actually used as a random gibbing response by Duke in Ministry of Fear:
http://youtu.be/wwOdrD5qJdI?t=1m54s

I guess the line only takes affect in that one level? Also note that Duke still says "Heh heh heh, what a mess!" (4:24), so it's not overriding all his existing gibbing lines.

[Fox]

It's 100% based on CON coding, and not even of an advanced type. (well, except for the tripbomb as an inventory item)

Thanks for the info. Because that sound is only used on that level, I speculated that it was intended for the CyberKeef (I couldn't test random sounds for every level). Apparently that's not the case. Looking at the list of sounds now, there are plenty of gibbing lines that are rarely present in the .pmps (if not present in a single one):

"God damn aliens."
"Never meet an alien I couldn't kill."
"You outta here."
"Suck on this!"
"So many assholes, so few bullets."
"Squeal piggy, squeal!"
"Haha... makin' bacon!"
"Nobody wears flares... and lives."

The problem is, would talking about flares make any sense out of the disco club in Ministry of Fear? Well, it's not like the Magnum P.I.G. or CyberKeef wear bell-bottoms anyway. So I guess I should extend these sounds for all maps, assuming they are missing from the other .pmps. I.e. there is a plenty of sounds missing from several maps, in special the Magnum P.I.G. that has no sound at all.

Another missing tile: some sort of rack that looks a lot like tile 1203, used in the garages near the beggining.

Edit: already got all tile numbers covered. Cyberkeef is the only really, really weird thing.

[Jimmy]

How do you know what the tile numbers are?

And excellent work folks.

[Daedolon]

The tile numbers are saved in the map data.

Looks pretty cool, has a nice "less is more" feel going on. How many levels will it have?

One.

[Fox]

I have already coded the enemies and some stuff.



As it turns out, Nightmare Zone is quite an amazing level, with lots of enemies and fun secrets. The gameplay issue was due to the PSX controls and framerate.

That's why many players hoped to play the 4th episode levels of DNTM, because stupid control on PSX.(for me, I sucked in all of console FPSes)

Good job!

[OpenMaw]

I honestly think the controls would be alright if the frame-rate wasn't so terrible. So. Damn. Clunky.

Some hot screenshots!

That urban decay look reminds me of F.E.A.R. 1

Doing improvement to my mod.

Using myospal for displaying items we take such as "special keys" and others to prevent confusion etc.
Display a little key icon at the top and I like it :0

Example of the latest work.


I put below the list of gamevar varname 0 0
or it wont recognize the ifvares.

onevent EVENT_DISPLAYREST

 ifvare BLACK_KEY 0 { myospal 4 32 10652 0 0 0 }
 ifvare BLACK_KEY 1 { myospal 4 32 10653 0 0 10 }
