Aug 13, 2006 Movies 0 commentsThis is a very basic overview video of the design process utilised to create the CCTV style HUD effect for the upcoming Doom 3 mod Lynch. It's nothing...
Lynch
Doom III mod | TBD
Rapine Entertainment is the worlds largest producer and distributer of illegal underground film. It's catalogue attracts global interest, and includes group beatings, snuff, executions and harakiri among others. In 2007 a new franchise will be released, in which perfectly average citizens are thrown into desperate situations, the outcome of which will determine their right to exist. The title of this new franchise, is Lynch.
Lynch is a first person, survival horror mod built for ID software's Doom 3 engine. Inspired greatly by games such as Manhunt,Theif, Condemned: Criminal Origins and films in the vein of Irreversible and Man Bites Dog, the mod throws the player into a desperate situation in which they must fight and/or think to survive. Violence is not the only answer here, nor is it entirely necassary, but you will be frequently forced into asking questions regarding morality, and how it effects the primal instinct for survival.
Features :
Episodic Content -
Lynch is a franchise of illegal, violent films created by underground specialists Rapine Entertainment. Each episode of the game represents a new release within the franchise, each with unique plots, characters and visual styles.
*External Narrative -
While each episode tells a unique story, there's much more going on in the background which is not limited to the Lynch universe. Each episode will contain new infomation and clues, which you must use to search the internet, and reveal the true story.
*Lynch Cam -
See not through the eyes of the lead character, but through multiple Scurity and Body cams, triggered by the Director at any given moment.
*Multiple Choice -
While not professing to integrate the same level of choice as say Knights of the Old Republic, Lynch will offer different solutions to certain problems. Your compliance with the Directors wishes might just make your progress easier, but at what cost?
*Interaction -
Not all weapons just lie around here, you're going to have to search long and hard, and use the environment around you as both tools of violence, and distraction.
*Executed with precision -
Pull off special executions with a variety of melee weapons. Just remember, it's only as violent as you are.

For the most part Lynch is being created as a one man effort, however given that this one man (ie: me) has the brainpower of a garden pea, tutorials, advice and general pointers given by a variety of resources has been utilised, all of whom are credited on the Team section of the site.
Please bare in mind that all the following ingame shots were taken during the intial Test Build, which as said before was basically used so i could learn the software. Therefore they are intended more as an indication of the mods artistic direction, and are not a true reflection of it's current and intended quality.
First and foremost I would like to add that I am indeed recruiting in the areas of scripting/coders! If you have ANY knowledge in these areas please don't hesitate to get in contact, more info on the Jobs page.

Also have some conceptual music on show. This is the same case as the screenshots, ie very much a work inprogess, and at this point considered more of an indication of direction as opposed to any sort of final piece. Be forewarned that the following can not really be considered music in the conventional sense. I'm going for an extremely noise dominated style for this, and although the final soundtrack will also consist of 'proper' music, such sound is being kept under wraps until release of the mod.
Any feedback be it Positive, Negative, a suggestion, or even the odd death threat is completely encouraged, and you can get me and more info on the project via the following address:

Thankyou for your time!

Great! TC!! Thank's for your project in DooM III !!!
tastless humour, blatant disregard for the feelings of others and a nonchalant approach to potentially upsetting events/subject matter?? Bah! You'll do just fine here :P
ahh fear not I'm working on some special stuff for the executions. Unfortunately as far as actually incorporating them into the build goes they're still some time off, as I'd really like to finalise the interaction (and subsequently execution) systems before I spend tiem working on the animations.
Rest assured though the executions will be horrible, and unlike manhunt will all be seen via first person, yet still with the CCTV style effect. I'm not aiming to make this some horrible, violence for the sake of it splat fest, I'm focusing on creating a very real, very detailed sense of intamecy. My problem with many games is that just shooting someone (while being alot of fun!) takes away the real sense of responsibility and horror that such an act indicates, which I hope to incorporate with lynch.
Only time will though, and in the meantime thanks to all who have shown an interest. It most certainley does not go unappreciated
Like SAW, me likez.
hey! As far as this mod profile goes, tasteless dark humour is encouraged! :D
Well, damnit, if I could code I'd be on this like Roman Polanski on a 13-year-old girl.
I'm liking the mod more and more by the minute. :'D
(Thank god someone got my Roman Polanski joke!)
awesome! being one of the maybe 5 people who liked manhunt, i'll be watching this.
Hope this works out as neat as it sounds. You just have to remember, anybody who is still in the Doom3 community after all this time has a sick mind indeed, and therefore you are going to need to come up with many many possible executions for them to be satisfied =).
Watch'd!
