Okay and your point?

Wondering what your point was. I must have read your post lazily though, because the last line kinda explained it. Sorry 'bout that waste of time, then.

I had a similar issue as Hank with my delivery address and my ticket in 3DR's customer support helpdesk system is now 116 days old without having received any response yet. I've tried emailing them too but if I don't get a response before the end of the year I'll be forced to cancel my order of the founders edition as well.

Hey Renegado!

I’m sorry about this. We’re taking care of it right away.

The second I found out, our “hello@3drealms.com” tickets had been left unanswered, I hired someone to take take care of this exclusively. She’s been going through all customer support tickets this week.

If you haven’t received a reply, please drop another mail to hello@3drealms.com and you’ll get a reply right away.

Thank you for letting me know!

Thanks for the response Fred, she already contacted me.
I'm glad to see that you guys are finally sorting out the problems you had with customer support. I really didn't want to miss my chance to grab the founders edition.

Cage has a terrific art blog up on the official 3DR site:

[OpenMaw]

Holy. Shit. Did they.... Did they find the old models??

[oasiz]

It's an old screenshot, nothing more.

[Tea Monster]

I've not seen that one before. I wonder if they have any more we've not seen.

I remember being told at one point that they didn't have the original models. I don't know what happened to them if that is true. Maybe Chuck has them?

[oasiz]

Sounds like a topic of discussion for Duke Nukem sections

Snap itself could be never before seen as well. From archives. It's just an old screenshot.

Indeed it does, of which we have two topics where this was dicussed, One specifically dedicated to acquiring and archiving all the Animation Master stuff.

To you it's just an old screenshot. To some of us it's an interesting piece of history.








I went on the 3D Realms site again to see if I could purchase a hard copy of IM, but it looks like they still haven't gotten another batch in of the boxed version. Shame.

[DavoX]

I'm pretty sure oasiz knows the importance of it. I think he meant "it's just a screenshot" in the sense that there's no other material with it.

[MusicallyInspired]

And that it wasn't indicative of them having found the source models.

[Forge]

Don't know if it's been mentioned yet or not, but it's a good time to go to the Ion Maiden store page on steam and nominate it for a Steam Award.
Not sure what that gets the game, except maybe some exposure on their front page if it places high enough.

You probably have to have a steam account, but I don't think you need to own the game to nominate it.

[DavoX]

Thanks man!

[Forge]

Voidpoint won't show up as an option when trying to select a nominee for developer.

Something about needing to set up their creator homepage through steam.

meh.
some ass-sucking community, like Far Cry, will push their pony for game of the year, so I elected Ion Maiden for 'best environment'

[Maisth]

I nominated it "Best Alternate History"

I hope someone seriously gets it...

I guess I get it too Unless my silly English grammar strike back on me again ...Too bad I already nominated IM for GOTY one, a game cannot nominated twice.

I do
On so meany levels

I don't take the Steam awards that serious
I tend to just fill them out for the exp

[Outtagum]

I put 'Hunt Down The Freeman' for GOTY.

[MusicallyInspired]

Too far, man. Too far.

[Hawke]

It's looking good!

There is a new dev blog out.

It's funny to read that, because for the most part, it's talking about various features of EDuke32 modding that have been implemented in various mods for many years, whlle making it sound like they were developed specifically for Ion Maiden. Some of the things I actually learned from the Ion Maiden guys like 10 years ago, and they were already using them in their projects. I guess for promotional purposes it sounds better to imply it's all new; the average person who hasn't played a Build game in 20 years won't know the difference.

EDIT: I should point out that some things have only been possible to do recently, and some things can be implemented better now than in the old days. Headshots for example: now that we have tiledata acces in CON (added a few years back) you can calculate the height of a headshot on a specific enemy without resorting to hardcoded numbers.
