It's good to see some news!!! I presume you need new soldier lines for the new characters???

Does the multiplayer still work for AMC TC??? I hear the latest Eduke32 mp coding doesn't work, and I've been trying to coop with a buddy of mine, but none of the enemies spawn in on the invasion maps (with monsters set to normal) and my friend just keeps glitching around and the game crashes after a bit. Will AMC TC revert to the old MP coding some time in the future???

Does anyone else have this issue where everything in the game kind of jitters out of sync for a split second??? Everything looks incredible, but it really ruins the experience when every 10 seconds or so as I'm walking, the sky and/or the road textures will jitter. It's subtle, but still very noticeable and frustrating :s

Other than that, this has just been awesome so far!!! :D

Cool, I like what I see so far, I'll be keeping an eye on this :D keep up the good work ^_^

That's okay...as I said there already is a sufficient amount of maps, would be nice to have some more but it's cool if not possible ^_^

Hoping for a more complete weapon set for the Cultist and John still :P

If it's not too much to ask...would it be possible for The Classic Collection to be extended with more maps??? It's a really fun way to keep the replay value going for AMC-TC and I think it could use some extra maps here and there (but there is a sufficient amount already so it's completely cool if not :P ) Also it would be wonderful if characters like the Cultist and John could get a more complete weapon set instead of the temporary weapons taking up primary slots. Much like Jane has more her own weapons :P think it would just give A LOT more value to play them (especially the cultist)

The AI isn't necessarily hard on 0, it's just that when you finally build your war factory and 30 titans are sent into your base even though the match has only been going on for about 5 minutes max...it's a little cheap, not to mention the AI has the advantage of building multiple things at once causing them to soar to higher tech levels in no time. I understand in RTS the AI can manage mutliple things at once since they're an AI and that's fine, but in CnC they never followed the same gameplay rules, I quite literally saw one AI build 2 helipads and 4 Factories all at once, and then sell both helipads as soon as they finished being planted :/

Still great stuff though...just it's a little hard to enjoy the maps when you get rushed so early on it's not even funny (well, maybe the first few games :P )

Would it be possible to make set locations and set teams in the mod like in Red Alert 2, or make an easier AI level??? The AI literally cheats and ultimately rapes you if you don't separate them from you...it's quite frustrating :S I only play on maps that have bridges so I can isolate myself and not end up being rushed within 5 minutes. Other than that though, fantastic stuff and keep up the great work!!! :D

How does one remove "Radiation Hazard" when trying to sleep??? I don't have any radiation according to my inventory if radiation is what's preventing me from sleeping. It's impossible for me to play now since my vision is just so blurry my eyes hurt D:

Other than though, this mod is fantastic :D

How do we install the patch??? Do we just throw the files in the zip into the main directory, because I can still wall-kick constantly, not sure if I'm missing something :S

I suppose I wouldn't mind trying out for the voice acting part, my mic is actually pretty darn good, and I've already been doing lines for one of my own mods. I should have the intro line laying around here somewhere (sadly when I recorded it, it only picked up on the left side :/ but when I recorded for one of my latest youtube videos on The Martyr, it picked up on both sides so it was probably just the way my mic was positioned at the time) :D

(Continued from below post)
It would be great if there were more upgrades for characters like Sang and Zaxtor who only have 2 upgrades :D
Can we get something constant to buy with Credits??? Specifically talking about the Classics episode which I currently have thousands of credits and nothing to spend it on :P maybe we could have special temporary weapons which we have to pay for to use??? If you need sprites for a gun, I have a USAS model rip I did a long time ago I never used, came out surprisingly good with a few clean ups here and there. Besides a few small parts, I doubt one could even tell it was a rip :P
And lastly, more maps like the first two in the AMC episode would be great, being able to play a map over with multiple characters and have different advantages is a real something (like James and that time portal on the second map) I enjoyed the switch up between characters, and it made sense for the story/map too like Rusty's which personally is my favorite map(s) , just it's funny that as soon as you get the chance to upgrade the character you chose you're forced to play other characters for the remainder of the episode :P
I'm sure it sounds like I'm complaining, so I do apologize if that seems so, just trying to make the post look organized as much as possible :D

Playing the AMC episode for the third time (probably going to end up doing a fourth) looking for everything (and shooting everything with the M.I.A Gun :P ) and I found the secret map before the Abyss, I thought it was strange that the wall was marked as a possible entry :P
One thing I noticed when playing the Classics episode is that some maps don't end properly,
-HellsBase I believe it's called, will end the episode and return to the menu when completed
-Beach map from Nuclear Showdown will go to a DM map
-HydroStation(or was it phonics??? I don't remember) maybe I'm missing something but the ending of the map is blocked by a wall that refuses to go down, and there's no way the player can backtrack without noclipping :/
Speaking of the Classics episode, I find it strange the player doesn't start with the items they put on the character via the equipment menu making the M.I.A, flamethrower and such near impossible to get.

I love this mod, looking forward to future episodes :D
One thing I noticed though with base budget is that it seems the player gets 2k each time they start a new game (I noticed when I was checking out who gets what from the shopkeeper) which means a player can easily start the game over and over to easily buy out everything :P
I personally just play the classics episode to gain my budget, this is really great stuff, keep it up :D

nice work :D

whoah, what's the remix that starts when the page is loaded up??? If you don't mind me asking :D

Anyhow, after playing numerous Warcraft 3 mods, this is by far the best I've seen, so cheers!!! ^^

congrats on college :D
I'm curious about the weapons though, will finding weapons be dependent on the player's exploration, or will weapons sort of be given to the player throughout the game like in AOM??? I suppose we will just have to wait and see :P
either way looks great reminds me to install HL into my new PC

A few oddities I thought/found that seemed worth a mention

-You can see where the sprite cuts off on a few of Jedrik's weapons (both swords and the axe I think)
-Maybe I'm missing something, but what goes into Slot 6 for Jedrik??? The Armageddon Sword is in slot 7, and the closest is the Bow which is in Slot 5, so I'm curious (I'm also curious what the 3rd class' weapons will be)

Awesome stuff 10/10, in fact I canned one of my Doom mods a long time ago that was a little bit similar, but after playing this, I was inspired enough to work on it again, so a big thanks! :D

ROCK! AH **** IT'S PAPER >(

:P

linear, but the maps are rather opened up for exploration...hope that answers your question :D

Actually, as a spriter it would have been a waste of time to recreate another sprite from scratch, my guess (if Cage didn't do this from scratch, but maybe he did) is he resized the picture, clean it up, take and add bits and peices to the gun, and finally add that "texture", at least that's the way I would have done it :/

I suppose I'm basing this idea off of AMC TC which also uses Paul sprites (with some edits) I think I found 3 of Paul's work in AMC TC :P

"It's possible that Cage did an edit on an existing plasma gun"

Use google to double check your spelling :/

Nice effects by the way, but you may want to scale it as it's quite obvious where the lens/glare cut off

You should complete your credit list more, at least name as much people as you can rather than naming none of them :/ one I know for sure is Paul/NMN (the author of the original Plasma gun sprites...which btw, you guys did some very good editing of :D )

You may also want to fix the hands on the Double Barrel, it goes from complete black gloves, to black fingerless gloves when reloading, which just looks horrid

Quick question about the maps...how linear are they? They seem to be a bit open up for exploration, which I must say is a good thing :D

Depends on how they do it, if they really want to make it that much of a close combat weapon, then they can do that, or if they want to give the weapon abit more of a range, they can do that too. Personally a spray can makes more sense than incendiary rounds, also about getting up close, that was towards melee weapons, different issue.

Still look foward to this game :D

I think it's more about how people are being ripped off by this game, I think it was only 6 months before the announced L4D2, not to mention people paid about $40 bucks for a game that's pretty short (you could beat the game in probably 4 or 5 hours, if done right)

I have to admit, there's absolutely nothing ground breaking in L4D2 either, The new models use the same animations making it feel like something that could be found off of FPS Banana (plus the girls hands compared to the gun is amazingly small) the incendiary ammo is retarded, most of the weapons in L4D is understandable, but incendiary ammo doesn't fit in at all, why not just make a spray can with a match? Also the melee weapons are uneeded, especially if the pistols have unlimited ammo still, who wants to get that close to a zombie anyways?

I wouldn't include all the weapons and enemies in the demo if I were you...that's alot of content for just a demo

People should just read the tutorial, they don't need some map to understand things, just toy with Doom Builder and you'll understand things :D

I hope you replace those weapon models instead of just reskinning the arms...looks good so far though :D
