Welcome!
This is an update of the Bloodlines project started by Felix Drott and many other amazing creators in the Blood and mod community of the late 90s.
I (daMann) was a mapper back then on the project, and in 2018 rebooted the project as a fun creative outlet and have tried to include Felix as well as current modding legends like Dzierzan in it when they can to help out!
This version has some updates to old maps, quality of life improvements that make installing and playing easier with the new modern source ports, and a couple of surprises here and there.
There is also a raw upload of all the files, maps, etc.
I have played alot of games between then and now, and their influence shows. I also feel more comfortable coming back to it and taking my time, trying to get things right. Dusk by New Blood Interactive has influenced a great deal my modern mapping tendencies, but there are other sources of inspiration as well and... just what is fun?
*In the 1.5 release, I did add a Tommy Gun and ammo to help make the start of the map easier. Originally, I hadn't done that, but with so many people today doing Youtube vids with "pistol/pitchfork starts" or in this case, "axe starts" I wanted to give some help.
*In my original map, I had way too many useless sectors, so I simplified lighting and cleaned up several errors I'd made and just blew by when I was so inattentive. This allowed me to add a ton more vehicles in the streets, including one that is More than Meets the Eye! :)
*I've also added a TON of exploration to this map, with a basement in the tenement apartments, a whole Subway section, and just really tightened the main direction of the map, too.
*I'm also far more comfortable adding tiles to the art lineup, and those show up, including the tiles for adding some lighting improvements like in Ion Fury, when appropriate. You can't abuse those for sure!
Can't wait to share this map and others with you in the next update.
This version corrects numerous issues with the previous Fresh Supply version of Bloodlines.
An early version of the Cathedral map (e1m2) of the BloodLines TC.
Compatible with GDX/NBlood/Raze version of the project.
Works with Fresh Supply?
The one that says FRESH SUPPLY will work with it. That will be the only release supported because at this point using Xmapedit and brand new features like CustomDudes, new effects coding, etc. that is only compatible with NBlood and Raze... Sorry, but enjoy the classic version above !
Just finished the first 3 episodes. Pretty solid stuff!
How is progress going towards 2.0? :)
Work is happening. Hopefully more info Soon (tm) 🤣
Let me add to my accidental Guest comment... Working on tightening up a lot of the first episode, adding maps/weapons/enemies not in the releases above.
The newest one will be NBlood and Raze only, simply because of the new effects, custom enemies, etc... but worth it believe me.
Just a comment... I have slowly been trying to fix some of the more grievous errors on this project and will re-upload. I give an update because I know there's people interested. It will never be "complete" but it will be done enough to play end-to-end.
Thanks for asking.
i love your mod! keep it up ^-^
Might be my fave Blood mod, hopefully 2.0 gets released soon, cant way to play more of it
Not bad. E1M1 was a tedious key and switch hunt, the rest of the levels in E1 were better in this regard. Not Death Wish, but as far as Blood goes, pretty solid.
Death Wish is the cream of the crop for sure! This is just a jankified late 90s/early 2000s project I tried to fix from my childhood :) Thanks for playing. Hopefully I can get the 2.0 version playable beginning to end again and upload it.
2.0 deleted???why
It had some corrupt maps that just quit the game. I was trying to solve it but getting frustrated. I am trying to make something work sorry.
