Recently, I have been doing retrospective examinations of my Warcraft III maps. It seems to be poetic justice that, in doing so, I finally encountered a number of elusive bugs that I had never been able to reproduce before -- including Project Y4's game-ending bomb drop crash bug.
Debugging is a difficult thing at the best of times, and it's nigh impossible if you can't even get the error to occur. Needless to say, with cast-iron reproduction steps for this bug I was able to finally kill it dead. Job done.
But a release for one bug fix is no release at all, so I added in a few other tweaks and twiddles too...
Most important of all, I've added music. A kind musician called Merlijn Nash volunteered to work with me when development of Project Y4 was in full swing, around various committments such as, oh, you know, releasing his debut album. Unfortunately, by the time we had completed the main theme... Well, I'd reached the end of the line with the project.
So since this release was absolutely necessary, I figured it would be rude to let his hard work go to waste. Now you can enjoy a sumptuously atmospheric theme as you storm the facility -- thank you, Merlijn!
More weapons. More missions. More drones. Your company still needs you, Captain.
You like new content and features, don't you? Here's a sneak-peek at some of the things that will arrive with Project Y4 R02...

THIS IS AWESOME! But .. can is it possible to add multiplayer? o.O
No, it is not possible. This is a singleplayer adventure, and it's been designed and built that way right from the beginning.
Are you making this alone? It looks very neat!
I am indeed. Though I fully intend to bring other people on nearer the end, to handle things like music... And I will certainly run out of voices after two characters.
I'm really impressed by your skillset. ;-)
You model, texture, animate, program, and write. Is that correct?
Keep up the good work!
great job dude
this is a different game!!
can you release a BETA version please?
Sorry, I don't intend to release any version until it's finished. There will, however, be a closed beta phase at some point in the future.
Since it's a story-driven game, with a very strong mystery at its heart, I don't want people to play an unfinished version and ruin the suspense.
What about a demo ending on a cliffhanger?
What little story there is does not contain any convenient early-game cliffhangers. You'll just have to wait for the final. ;)
this is a very cool mod keep it up
