A first test of ship inertia causing head bobbing video - XWVM mod for STAR WARS™ - X-Wing Special Edition
XWVM is a mod to the original X-Wing game from Lucas Arts and Totally Games by Larry Holland and Edward Kilham. We are re-implementing the executable to extend the game beyond its original hardware support. The mod of course requires the player to own and have installation of the original X-Wing game, or have the GOG or Steam versions of X-Wing Special Edition (either the 1993 floppy, the 1994 CD, and/or 1998 Windows edition). The team of fans developing XWVM is not associated with Lucasfilm Ltd or Disney, and XWVM is not an official Star Wars product. XWVM isn't a standalone game, or total conversion, but a mod to the original. XWVM neither contains nor distributes any copyrighted material. All game resource files (missions, voice overs, SFX, iMUSE automaton, in-game graphics and 3D models, etc) are loaded from the player's copy of the original game, or are replacements originally created by our team, where the original resources are considered inadequate for today's standards.
We are experimenting with head bobbing. In order to have a more dynamical feeling, turning your ship or accelerating/decelerating has the effect of slightly moving the pilot's head.
Not only this makes it feel more real, but also helps making the new 3D cockpit outstand in a 2D camera mode.
Nice progress, I tweeted this :)
Holy...this is amazing. Thank you for bringing X-Wing into the 21st Century
Where can i download it?
The mod will be available for download once we get new models to replace the current placeholders.
Hello , where or how can we download this Mod?
OK, can't wait :D
This project is absolutely incredible. Eagerly awaiting with much anticipation.
