DieHard Wolfers

[Guest]

I know Majik made a post elsewhere about this, but for those who are not watching the regular news string, I have finished "Operation: Mutant Strike". I have sent it to Brian, but if you would like to download it before it is on the Dome, copy the link below and paste it into a browser window to download. I would like to know what you think of it since it is only my second project ever, and I didn't do most of Hunscheisse.

Brian posted the set on the Dome, so I'm going to delete the copy of the zip off of my server...the link to Brian's download from the Dome is at http://www.wolfenstein3d.co.uk/omsfinal.zip. Thanks to Brian, as always, for hosting the mod, and for running the Dome in general. It's definitely appreciated!

I play it now You made quit good game,I think. Thank you!

* shock me out of black hole * That's very good TC, played at first and second levels, there is one of few bosses look like it comes from BS or something like that.

I will judge it after I finish my homework (ATS gave me more homework ) and will add them to TC's 25 top listing later.. I always worry about all TCs on listing will be in big surprise if EOD beats all of them.

Dum omitted a couple of small things in the manual that I'll mention here...

Possible Glitches

- the occasional crash of the game, caused by too many projectiles released by "hitler ghost" replacements. The best way to avoid this is to get rid of them before they spawn too many projectiles. This didn't happen very often when I was testing, but can occur on rare occasion when there is a lot of distance between you and the enemy spewing the projectiles, allowing more to be fired before the initial ones have hit a wall and vanished.

- sometimes with the animated sprites, some of them won't be animated. It's just because of the way they were done for the game, based over Pac Man ghosts, and there's nothing wrong with your PC. There was no rhyme or reason to which ones did this when when we were testing, but it won't affect gameplay.


Additional Kredits

- To CANONIR1 (I believe it was him) who sent me a modified machinegun pickup that I gave to Dum to use in the project. Thanks for the contribution!


I think that's it! Glad you guys are liking it so far! I've really enjoyed it myself...good work, Dum!

Mutant Strike is now on the Dome News too at http://www.wolfenstein3d.co.uk/news.htm

It will be put into the addons lists in a few days.

Thanks, CANONIR1, but I'm sure he didn't mean anything by it...it's hard to comment on the game I guess without mentioning some of the enemies...but you are indeed correct, Howling Wolf...there are quite a few mini bosses in the game...only three enemies considered to be real bosses are at the very end...

i just had a wee go on it, looks nice, cool boss type fella i like the way how you did it, the mutand is "asleep" i think, i just figured how you did it....at leat i think i do. good work! i think it could get a dome award

[Guest]

heheh. Glad you like the "surprise" mutants. I thought it worked pretty good. An award would be nice, but it's a little too early in the month to think of that. There have been some good sets released already like Paderborn by Lakota Bucksnort was very good (and also about a lot of mutants). I know sometimes Brian gives multiple awards if there are several good sets, but only time will tell how good this one is. Thanks for the feedback so far, and feel free to keep it coming! I'm pleased so far, even more than with Hundscheisse.

Argh! Did I not get rid of that?! :oops:

EDIT: Change "need" to "not" so the sentence was what I meant to say and actually made sense.

It looks Good 10/10 I allmost beat it

[Majik Monkee]

I sent the update to Brian (thanks, Adam). If anyone is having trouble with the "hitler ghost" enemies crashing your game, the updated exe should fix it. However, if you're past level 5 (which is really the only place I've seen it happen) without incident, I'd hold off on downloading the exe update, as I don't know if old saved games will work with the new exe or not. I just sent it to Brian, so it probably won't be on the Dome till tomorrow...no worries...

They should work without a hitch.

Cool...I gladly stand corrected. Thanks again, Adam...I also sent an updated manual file that just has the extra credits that Dum forget in the first zip manual...of course, now it has the "glitch" section too with the nonexistent Hitler ghost glitch, but folks should just ignore that if they don't encounter it...

This is vaguely reminding me of the release of OL...where I sent it in and then right away discovered those map glitches I'd overlooked...coincidence, or just bad karma for anything related to OL? Oh, well...at least it's fixed now...

The zip now has the updated exe and the updated manual (uploaded about 1am Friday Oct 8 - UK time). For those who already have the game and just want the new exe, it's at http://www.wolfenstein3d.co.uk/MUTANT.EXE

Saved games from the earlier exe do work with the new one.

hahaa, no offence but..from what i've heard from your mods that sounds like bull$*!# to me
good solid mod! good imagination!

[Guest]

Thanks, Jackal! I appreciate the input in a big way. I really tried to think through on this mod what hasn't been done a million times already. I know there are lots of mutant based mods, and a lot of games that use some of the graphics that I have used, but the theme and new character is what I was hoping would help make it a little different, as well as different level style from Hundscheisse. My hope is that the finale of the game will blow players away. The final two boss levels before 10 were done by ack (thanks, ack!), and they up the challenge a bit before the end, but in a good way. Kyo, if you beat the game, PM me and tell me what you thought of the finale.

Thank you to Brian for the updates! And thanks to Adam for creating them. I thought we had everything covered before release, but stuff pops up sometimes. Hopefully that will be the last of it. I am glad though that the saved games still work with the new exe and you don't have to lose your progress.

I forgot to credit WSJ for the table sprites with the zombies on them. Those are his doing, or at least I got them from a mod he made - I am not sure who made them originally. I hope you don't mind I used the sprites I did from your mods, but I started trying to draw similar things and discovered you had done it already and it looked excellent. I was inspired by Project Eisenritter to do something more "mutanty".
