Duke Nukem III: Atomic Reload  "Atomic Reload revival"

User is offline   TURBOKID 

#1

Okay so it has been some years since Atomic Reload was first thought up, birthed, then cooked up and eaten (And rightfully so, development was chaotic and the visuals extremely choppy).
Looking back, Atomic Reload started when DNF was still Vapourware, and was at first supposed to be a DNF substitute, this path was all Wrong and now it will be what it should have been, a Duke 3D Mod that will hopefully hold its own.
The idea of making Duke 3D more "Realistic" is out and now Atomic Reload will be coming in with a fresh new look.
So this thread is the official Revival, lets keep it civil and see if we can do it right this time :P

Already set up as there were issues, just include your DUKE3D.grp
Minor basic release
Runs alone, no need for HRP

*Update coming soon*

Interesting. This is the first mod I've played that had a noticible stereo separation for the weapon firing sounds.

Interesting look to the sprites. I've said this before, but it's nice to see someone do something different.

There you go, although there are some problems ... I don't know if it's related to the fact EDuk32 showed tons of error messages and the absence of the DEF file but I'm no specialist >_>
It may come from the fact I played in Polymost instead of the default Polymer setting but there's no way I'm playing on Polymer so I got my hands tied on that regard ...
Also the Shrinker and the Freezer are big black squares, and the Expander has no crystal.

I'm lazy so I'm just commenting on the posted screenshots. Obviously it needs a lot of work but I like the artistic direction; it reminds me of Borderlands in a good way. I would not say it is going for realism, it is just a different style.

I like the look of the weapon sprites, but they affect the composition of the entire scene in a bad way. In the first E1L1 screenshot it fits well, but it seems he hasn't modified the rest of the art to fit his new style. I think if he puts in the work to modify the rest of the art, the borderlands duke style will work, but I can't judge until the composition of the scene is more synergistic.

Well he said it was still in a basic state after all so it's kinda to be expected. However I do agree that it can become a solid overall indeed !
IMO the most important issues right now is the big black squares and all those error messages ... I have just tried running in Polymer and nothing different happened ... It also looks like including the Duke3D DEF doesn't do anything ...

I don't know if it could help but here's my EDuk32 Log just in case >_>
Look out it's VERY long :
(let's hope I'll manage to get that spoiler feature to work ...)

As TheDragonLiner said, I think this more of a test than a complete release.

This is correct, there will be a series of updates until the thing is finished, the link will always be updated.

And maybe this will help show something a little more complete with the art style

Are you going to add these 3d models in game or only create 2d sprites from them?

Sprites, but i am having trouble with getting those as my friend and i seem to have fallen out.
Hence the other Devastators.

They look really nice, but I imagine you are going to have to create low-poly versions for them and bake the details down from the high poly model.

So this is the project you need maps for? Do you already have a mapper? How many maps do you want and what extension it should have?

The standard maps already look so refreshing with this that it may justify a complete playthrough. I really like the artistic direction taken here. Eagerly awaiting its arrival!

#28

I, on the other hand, don't really like the art direction of this mod.And am not awaiting its arrival. BUT I do have to say NICE WORK! :)

I always appreciate good effort even if its not too my taste. :dukecigar:

Keep it up,and have fun. :wub:

I like what I see. I usually stick to vanilla textures but these look like they at their places.
Would've tried that but the link have expired...
