Dark Forces...

[MilesTeg]

I´ve just installed the DEMO of Dark Forces (to lazy to install the full copy of the game ) and it WORKED perfectly (except sound) with win xp. Now get this:

21" monitor, Geforce4 4400, AMD XP 1800+, 256 MB DDR RAM and Win Xp!

Still needs years to load up the first level *g*

 

And yes, I can count the pixels...

 

I´ve made one interesting observation playing DF: Kyle was a Speedy Gonzales! He´s the fastes guy in the universe

 

I still love this game and had the same idea of converting DF to real 3D since JK came out.

 

 

Just checked a few websites with DF-stuff:

DF Editing page

vocs, weapons

weapons, cheats, many other pics (including a cutscene pic with jabba and kyle for all those skin makers out there)

Listing of the midi files (not all downloads working)

audio files, pics and full demo (don´t forget to check sys requ. ! )

 

I´v just (yesterday) started mapping with radiant and the first thing I´ve noticed playing DF was that the maps are quite small. I´ve made the first room as I remembered it and it gets much bigger than it actually was in the game. I´m not sure if you can leave the architecture in the same scale.

Load times in DF are long for you? It screams on my system, which is considerably less powerful than yours....

 

Speaking of Dark Forces in 3D, there was a project at one time being done by some German guy I think, called Dark3D, where he was writing some sort of mod you could use with DF that would make it seem 3D somehow.....but I think the project died.

 

BTW nice name MilesTeg.

just keeping the post alive:c3po:

Any idea how to make those round doors they use for the lifts?

 

I´m nearly finished with the first floor architecture of the first level (remember, I´m an amateur in mapping, so don´t expect too much ).

 

I´m now trying to use Q3radiant with JOmap....

My XP is far from perfect configured....

I´ve read the post on Deja. Seemed that "Matthias" (the german guy) really did it, but he has build in a "north american"-lock in the engine ( ). All websites and pics of the engine are gone

I love Dune...

Yeah I remember that...he said he was getting a lot of rude email and most of it was coming from the US so he put a lock in the game. What a whiny b1tch. I wonder if anyone ever cracked that stupid lock....
