Well, pending final bug checking, as soon as our website goes back online, you'll be able to download the long promised patch to the Original Dark Forces MOD for Jedi Outcast Demo.
Features of the update include, but are not limited to:
a completely new Kyle model
simple EAX support for the Secret Base
fixed shot effects for the Bryar pistol (including Imperial Officer shot)
more sparkly helmet for the Imperial Commando
new Blaster and Bryar pistol models and skins
"correct" menu music
some shader fixes
one menu fix
total download size is about 5.6 MB.
let's hear your thoughts on all of this. This patch is for the SP demo only.
thanks
new blaster and bryar models and skins? never heard about that..cool!
just subtle improvements, nothing obvious
Will you be releasing a patch to add HapSlash's Stormtrooper :trooper: & Imperial Officer to the Secret Base demo also? (when he finishes them)
I would love to play the demo again with Hap's stormtrooper, especially with my new Fx:D
This patch is really cool and inspiring because the team is still advancing even though of all the problems.
Excuse my drifting off topic but, what new Fx? If it has anything to do with Stormtroopers then I want it! :stormmask
I don't know what Mullaney's new Fx are . . .
im sure he meant his new GeForce FX Series graphics card...
I feel so stupid! :headbump
Right now The new Stormtrooper model isn't done yet. I still need to do a bit of texture correcting on his left knee then go through the troubles of LODing him.
So I don't think you'll be seeing it in the demo patch they have planned,... Unless it takes a long time to get the new website up.
:dev7:
Getting a little more ontopic, is the only new thing on the Imperial Commando the skin on the helmet? I read somewhere that Corto was going to model on the big gloves and add the belt boxes like HapSlash has on his Imp Navy Trooper. Will Corto be doing these things too?
The commando also gets some new goggles that reflect the environment. I'm not sure about the gloves and belt though. Corto probably knows, but he doesn't post too often.
Well, the update is still going to be very cool whether or not the new storm trooper will be in it.
Yes, I was refering to my graphics card which is pissing me off because it messes up the shadows in jkii, but still runs perfectly smooth. I guess its not supported yet or something, I dont know.
Did you switch on the stencil shadows ?
They tend to appear on weird positions sometimes :rolleyes:
Yeah, I put simple shadows on which fixed it. One of the reasons I bought this card was to play JO with the phattest graphics, gf mx400 was alright but couldn't do all. It froze a lot during the swamp levels so I used a cheat codes to get past it:mad:
Heh was the GF MX 400 not in fact a revived GF2?
I think you need at least GF3 to play JO with full gfx quality,
I had a GF 3 TI 200 and the only limitation there is my CPU.
Yeah, I think the mx400 is just a beefer gf 2 but not as beefy as gf 2 titanium. I like my fx better . . . so far.
