One of my favorite Build Engine game for sure, I still have the box and the CD is still working perfectly fine. Which begs the question, is there any reason not to use BloodGDX instead?

Here's some gameplay for reference.

>>16451017

>there any reason not to use BloodGDX instead?

Cutscenes?

>>16451017

I think stuttering is gone but there are some bugs

>>16451021

>>16451029

Fug

Waiting to pirate this shit like I did with the original back in the 90s.

Well worth the money for sure though.

>>16451023

>Cutscenes?

Looks like it also features a handful of new voxel models and some weird bugs… I wouldn't own the game, I might be willing to spend nine bucks on it, but frankly, I'd rather spend my hard-earned money on hookers… or at least one hooker's breast. Or an ankle.

How much of a hooker can I get for $9? Anybody knows?

>>16451048

A sprite of a hooker, maybe.

CERO SHAY CRUO

I read somewhere it's supposed to be geroxe cruo?

>>16451046

Not to mention they remade netcode, so maybe it's fun online and shit.

Thinking about it again, might get to buy it and share.

>>16450913

What does this have on BloodGDX?

>>16451058

Isn't the netplay of GDX barebones?

Maybe this one has lobbies or something.

>>16451017

>>16451023

>>16451048

>Cutscenes

>voxel models

so no good reason?

>>16451065

Audio, CD music, also GDX is a imitation of the original engine made in java, works differently to vanilla so stuff like physics, collisions and other calculated stuff works differently, also there are still texture bugs in GDX.

>>16451073

>>16451058

GDX is a reverse engineered hack of the game due to lack of source code. Not to say that it isn't good, but that's still what it is. Not sure if Nightdive actually has the source though

>>16451086

i forgot to add that GDX isnt mod friendly in it's current state.

Here's the link to the game.

I dunno if MP is LAN only or what, I can't figure it out.

>>16451131

You dun goofed, here's the correct link:

>>16451149

Thanks.

Do you guys also get an error when clicking join MP game saying failed to retrieve results and nothing else? Does this shit even let you netplay without LAN?

https://mega.nz/#!3IMQmSAY!DvkTSs5gEQJdaX77nMPLSBeLX8KGMjOZ-QUy5H44T0I

Here's an alternate download if the original dies.

Still confused about the MP, I think it requires GoG Galaxy or some shit.

>>16451257

Same here. Played the shit out of this game in cybercafes.

Too bad my cousins are dead now, have no one to play LAN with, wish they would give us lobbies and shit.

>>16451291

Can't you gather a few like-minded faggots and use hamachi?

I don't know what cons this program has but I've never seen it even mentioned in here.

>>16451306

I have no idea how MP even works.

There are no visible IPs or anything in pirated copy, basically it throws you into an archaic lobby and you're supposed to join it somehow, but the pirated copy literally throws an error before even seeing the supposed lobbies this might have.

Either that or they scammed everyone.

Well fuck, now I basically have to get this if I ever want to play CTF with an existing community that isn't TF2 again.

>>16451162

>>16451251

Apparently the menus want GOG Galaxy/Steamworks or some shit, it might be still possible to connect via console. This is literally built on top of the Turok version of Kex Engine, so it should work the same.

Anyone want to try this shit with me?

>>16451073

>>16451086

>a imitation of the original engine

>reverse engineered hack of the game due to lack of source code.

Not completely true. It's actually based on the leaked source code of Blood's alpha. The author said the not-so-legally-borrowed-source-code only made 20% of GDX's code, but frankly I don't believe him. He originally built multiple Build Engine source ports on EDuke32, and since he had the obligation to release the code for his own project to the license (which he never did), he claimed that he wrote everything from scratch. Later on, he said that he got rid of all the code that was coming from EDuke32 and has started working on a new rendering engine… go figure how close it is to the original code.

Regarding the accuracy of his engine, it's beyond "pretty close" as he managed to playback a demo recorded in the original game with his own engine.

>>16451378

>"It bothers us that Blood 2 happened the way it did, but the bottom line is that GT Interactive controlled whether additional work and support got done on Blood 2 or not. This concept is something that eludes most gamers. They think that Monolith could have just gone on and “fixed” Blood 2 if we really wanted to. Not true. I’ll explain why… GT Interactive completely owns the Blood franchise, not us. We were paid by GT to produce Blood 2. We were given 11 months to do it in. GT was our customer. As our customer, they had every right to take the work that we were doing for them, and ship it whenever they felt was the right time. Certainly, there were many factors involved with regard to why Blood 2 got shipped when it did, but all of those factors were based on GT 's needs and direction, not Monolith's. Monolith did not control the ship date (I wish we did!). Monolith did not hold Blood 2 in the air and say to GT, 'We are done! There is nothing more for us to do!' No, all Monolith said to GT was, 'Based on the amount of time we were allocated, and the various events that have occurred during development, here is where we are. If you want us to continue, here is what it will cost. We would encourage you to allow us to continue.' Then, GT shipped Blood 2…"

>>16451391

I'd be more inclined to believe them if Shogo also wasn't a complete clusterfuck.

I want to scream, it's finally happening.

>>16451400

THQ is still on the bad goy list for talking with people that actually play games.

>>16451416

Doesn't Crytek hold the rights to Timesplitters though?

>>16451388

It's a remaster because previously the best way to play the game was DOSbox, which kinda sucks and is a bitch to set up with the proper control scheme. Granted, they're charging money for it and they shouldn't, but GoG makes for an easy torrent.

>not knowing about Blood

shut the fuck up with your poetry you autist

>>16451411

Well, maybe they learn from that, I mean I can't see how do that now, plus they did a really faithful remaster of turok 2, it even has a online community with all kinds of multiplayer and mods for the game now.

Look i'm not saying I don't agree that's a shitty thing, but considering how that came out great, and so far from what I see of port from nightdive has done of blood. maybe they learned.

>>16451416

>not delivering those spongebob ports

What happened with those? I wasn't aware of any Spongebob ports.

>>16451439

I'm pretty sure the turok and powerslave remasters were made by one guy, which makes me wonder what relation he has to the people behind this system shock bullshit.

>>16451450

I mean't turok 2 game that I know nightdive had a role in, I hear the sega version of powerslave is a much better game than the other remaster, or maybe I'm wrong.

>>16451411

Oh right, I forgot they were doing the actual remake. I thought you meant that the remastered version they released was fucked.

>>16451385

Still looking for people to try this out with.

It's only your public IP and only the host has to post it, it's not even hard.

>>16451450

Turok is by the guy who was working on making an engine port of Doom64. The Kex Engine is his handiwork and he's basically a one man show.

>>16451458

System Shock remake is the entire stated reason they're doing this but from the looks of it they're going to be stuck making Kex ports forever with their lack of competent staff.

>>16451554

So every company is ea? What a sound and reasonable argument, so normally I don't ask this, but do you even play video games, or do you just get on here to bitch about company's and or drama in those company's. What a horrible life you live to only see the worst in people, that's pretty sad.

You first, your nihilistic saging faggot.

So I guess no one tried the MP yet.

I'm gonna go to the hospital tomorrow, after I go and come back I plan to buy the Steam version and see if it works there.

>>16451982

I've yet to use Galaxyb does it scan your computer for gog installers? I buy gog games I want to support but I have a lot of pirate gog installers and installed games on my hard drives.

>>16452004

I'm wondering the same thing.

I have no idea how it works.

>>16452005

>>16452004

Just tried to scan the folder, turns out it asks for a license and stops the server too, I think.

>>16451471

yeah I'm free for testing, reply and I'll have a go with ya

I'm desperate to get this working and I got all night.

>>16451845

Is there even a legitimate use case for that? Vulkan is even better at cross-platform.

Nice it's already on the vola

>>16451391

>Regarding the accuracy of his engine, it's beyond "pretty close" as he managed to playback a demo recorded in the original game with his own engine.

That just requires coding an interface for your game that can read those demo files. It's basically a set of instructions for the game's actors. Tedious, but not impossible, especially considering he already did the whole game engine. But point taken.

>>16451388

Nice get, but Jesus Christ, not only did you decide that using a search engine is cancerous, you decided to wrote a faggy poem.

>>16450913

>out of nowhere

We've known about this for months, they even tried to acquire the Nolf IP, they didn't manage to get it because Activision couldn't find the docs to sell it, then Nightdive applied for the trademark and the Warner Bros applied for one and I think Warner Bros won.

Basically the WB cucks us out of a full re-release of Nolf in a new open source engine with mod support.

>>16452038

I just checked, they don't own the Blood IP, it's just been licenced from Atari, fuck video game publishers and the way they hold onto dead IPs like it's their last fucking sheckel.

>>16452019

I think with Modern OpenGL, I think ther's more hardware support (integrated graphics card and more), while Vulkan requires an actual dedicated graphics card and requires more modern cards, Older OpenGL can run on shittier and older hardware.

is it true that jace hall still has the source code for this?

>>16452119

Maybe

>>16452156

I don't know

>>16452156

Dubs

I've noticed some visual glitches in Fresh Supply that I didn't see in BloodGDX. BloodGDX also looked, I don't know, crisper? Then again I've never played original dosbox Blood so I don't know if it's equivalent with how BloodFS looks.

>>16452199

Different kind of play, you're comparing to autists to normal play.

>>16452189

Apparently the color reproduced by this port isn't accurate, that might be your issue

>>16452160

>>16452165

>>16452170

>>16452177

why doesnt he release it somewhere safe, cant be that hard can it?

>until it's found again and given away or wiped by a redditor

dont jinx it anon

Death Wish seems to be working, anyone else try some of the user-made maps with this remaster?

>>16452211

Because Atari would sue him over it. You can't anonymously leak something if you're the only person with access to it.

>>16452199

Don't worry about it. I enjoy the exploring and the mapping more than the degenerate speed-running. Play games how you enjoy them. Of course, once you get familiar enough with a game you can blast through it no issues since you know it like the back of your hand (and the people you're watching certainly aren't doing first runs).

I remember being there some kind of gaming questionnaire thing years ago (I think it had something to do with Sirlin?) that narrowed down your playstyle and mine was explorer/cartographer.

>>16452231

>>16452235

he cant be the only fucker with access to it, no way

>>16452244

>atari are jews

those motherfuckers arent even atari, they're infogrames

>>16452273

good point, I hope one day we'll see it, along with Lith's other games

anyways does the port support fanmaps or not yet? reading through the read it seems it does support DW but I havent seen people talk about the others

>>16452004

it checks your installed programs list for installed gog games as well as scanning any directories you specify

if it finds a game from them that isn't on your account list it still adds it to your list but disables updates and online play

They aren't joking around with their no DRM policy, and are happy to assume that maybe you quite literally just got it from a friend. That doesn't mean you get all the same services as a paying customer.

to its detriment you can't simply add any game as you can with Steam, and it lacks Steam's (admittedly (begrudgingly)) impressive controller interpretation layer

>>16450913

All they had to do was release the source code.

>>16452534

>Online play has DRM

Well of fucking course it would.

Damn this port is smooth. If only they did this good of a job with the ports of Duke Nukem 3D and Shadow Warrior that still suffer from screen tearing.

>>16452297

>selling abandon-ware with dosbox installed at a premium.

Gog was always kikery

>Well of fucking course it would.

A game doesn't have to have a client or even a master server in order for online to exist. Don't tell me Valve brainwashed you into thinking you can't have online without Big Brother watching over you.

>>16452636

No, that was me agreeing with you. Of fucking course these kikes would take a twenty year old game whose community expects nothing but the source code (so that then the community can do the developer's job for them) and put DRM in it.

>>16452199

There's basically two ways to play classic FPSes, and a spectrum inbetween.

>play it fast as possible, killing only the enemies you need to as efficiently as possible

>play it as thoroughly as possible, trying to find as many secrets as possible and get as much supplies as possible before going to the next level

And then there's also the option of going for 100% kills, which I never do because I find it somewhat tedious, but you may end up accidentally doing it anyway if you get 100% secrets.

Usually, most people start with the second style and change to the first after they've played a level and want to play it again.

>>16452534

>Hitscanners throw dynamite before shooting

That's in the original DOS game, I was playing it recently. That was me playing on Well Done and later Lightly Broiled (after I got further on and decided I wasn't quite good enough so started over).

Oh cool kaisers new port is done. Hopefully he can finish Powerslave EX as it's currently utter shit or maybe do Turok 3 as that's a game where framerate truly ruined it.

>>16452410

>Some guy "finds the source code in a flea market"

it was from two of the original devs, maks being one of them, they held on to it from the days LGS closed their doors to the point where there would be no legal interest and put together a patch and released it anonymously on a french thief fan forum.

>GoG decides to search for the right-holder of the game even though the game cannot run on modern computers, but fortunately, a patch just appeared out of the blue.

wish I lived in this retards fantasy world. what is it with PC game threads attracting the dumbest fucks imaginable?

Just play the damn game to finish it. Completion % is a pointless fucking number. Blood sucks in comparison to its peers anyway

>>16452600

>Hopefully he can finish Powerslave EX as it's currently utter shit

What's wrong with Powerslave EX? I recently finished the game on it and didn't have or notice any problems.

>or maybe do Turok 3

I remember reading in a /v/ thread years ago that the problem with Turok 3 is that for some reason I don't remember, it's a licensing / ip clusterfuck much worse than 1 and 2. Sadly I don't remember the details.

>>16452767

Sorry Anon but Turok 3 doesn't have a PC port, so it's completely out of the running for Kaiser because Nintendo refuses to allow them to use any of the source code legally. Time Splitters is a different story, they got it recently apparently.

>>16452913

>sourcecodecuck

stop posting retard

>>16452954

You retarded nigger, it is not just a matter of having the source code it's also about having the legal rights to utilize it so their ass doesn't get sued. Turok 3 was never ported to PC so the only group that Night Dive can negotiate this is with Nintendo because they own rights to part of the source code to it. They have already refused, so if they try to do Turok 3 that's opening them up to getting their asses sued by Nintendo because unlike you they're a visible company in the spotlight.

>>16452922

Wow, what a stupid gif.

>>16452991

>not just a matter of having the source code

literally irrelevant, kaiser almost never used it.

Sure which site do you want to spout legalese at you? Everything I'm talking about is contracts and copyright, which Nintendo still owns and maintains to the N64. Public projects like Project64 get away with it entirely under the protection of fair use, which Night Dive Studios is not protected from since they make these "remasters" for profit.

So the custom difficulty thing is pretty cool, but aside from that does this port really have anything over NBlood? I remember not buying into the hype of this port after NBlood was released since the dynamite throwing "physics" were nearly perfect as opposed to GDX's which felt off. Has anyone been able to easily get expansions/mods working with NBlood? Because better mod support seems like it might be a benefit to this port. what the fuck is wrong with you faggots thinking BloodGDX is a decent port?

>>16454074

>>16454151

Fresh Supply is not on DOSbox, you have the wrong version.

So one thing I've noticed after playing E1M1 and M2 on Lightly Broiled is that cultists drop their weapons WAY more frequently than in either the DOS version or NBlood. First cultist I killed in M1 dropped the shotgun, which at first I thought meant I just got really lucky because a shotgun in the first level is incredibly useful, especially after snagging akimbo on top of that mausoleum thing. But then in M2, the first Tommy Gun cultist dropped his weapon as well, which is incredibly odd as in all my time playing the game before this getting enemies to drop their weapons this easily never happened. Again, I could have just gotten incredibly lucky as I only played these two levels once. Maybe there was some gameplay setting I missed that they turned on by default to casualize this shit for newniggers, but I hope there's a way to fix this as it kind of doles out the weapons too quickly especially for the first episode.

>>16454074

Play on Lightly Broiled to start with. Because it's so low on the list you may be fooled into thinking that it's the equivalent of "Hey, Not Too Rough" difficulty of DooM or something. Wrong. Blood is the kind of game where the Normal mode is actually the Hard mode, and the Hard difficulties are the rip-your-asshole-out-and-spit-it-back-in-your-face mode.

>>16454090

Also this. Gargoyles and those fat zombie guys that throw projectiles can be completely cheesed just by crouching.

>>16454151

https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Blood#Improve_performance_in_DOSBox

Really, name anything unique about Blood's weapons that aren't the skull, the TNT or the flare gun (and even the flare gun is pretty much your average 90s FPS pistol with a twist)

It's bottom shelf shit and always has been. Doom clones were never about that. They were about shooting shit dead and exploring mazes.

>>16454545

>Doom clones were never about that. They were about shooting shit dead and exploring mazes.

Literally half the Doom clones were generic shit with more difficult gameplay than Doom due to awful QA.

Are you even 18 years old?

Is it worth to buy this, if I've already played the GDX version? I don't care for the multiplayer.

>>16454479

>okay, beside the weapons that are not special, which weapons are special

No TNT, no flare gun, and no life leech? What about the pitchfork, the tesla cannon and the voodoo doll?

Seriously though, regardless of the game, every weapon is basically doing the exact same thing: you pull the trigger and it kills things.

Gameplay wise, Blood provided alternative uses for each weapon (which wasn't very common back then, but was a selling point to Half-Life), and they felt different enough from other FPS at the time, not so much mechanically, but esthetically. Some would set enemies on fire, other would blow them to smithereens or turn them into dust. In the whole scheme of things, there's no major difference between vanilla DOOM guns and Trailblazer guns if you ignore how they feel and how they deface your enemies.

The design of Blood's weaponry contributed to the atmosphere as a whole. Duke3D had a sci-fi chain gun, Doom had a military grade heavy machine gun, and Blood had an old-fashioned Al Capone Tommy Gun. The flare and pitchfork provides a slasher/horror movie vibe, while the voodoo doll and the life leech were going to a supernatural vibe. Try changing Quake's weapon with modern guns and you'll take away a part of what made Quake's eerie style.

In a way, these FPS were cool because they had their own setting and style, instead of what most FPS games are doing today (standard run-of-the-mill sci-fi setting).

When I first played the game, I assumed the flare-gun worked like a standard pistol only to realize you had to WAIT for the flame to consume the enemy. It's deadly, will grind health slowly, and it requires a bit of understand of how the gun works to make good use of it (it's not a hitscan weapon, and it doesn't instantly kill enemies).

The sewed-off shotgun is more basic, but you had to compose with the reloading time. Plus, the second use combined the standard Doom shotgun and the double-barreled shotgun of Doom2. That's two weapons in one.

The Tommy gun could easy rip any enemy to shreds, but the secondary mode would allow you to spray the whole room as you tried to find cover.

The napalm launcher is more than "just a rocket launcher" because of the way Blood manages explosions. You could push enemies away and even prevent some enemies from getting closer by shooting in-between multiple enemies.

Voodoo doll is an okay hitscan weapon, until you unleash its destructive power with the secondary use, which would kill weakest enemies in a single attack. Not to mention the stupid penalty for use the doll when no one's in sight.

The life leech would replenish your health by stealing your target's vitality, and start eating up your own life when you're out of ammo. I'm not aware of many games were you can trade your health for ammo when you're in desperate need for a gamble.

The large choice of explosives was also a nice touch. Combined to their different uses (throw, timed, drop), it was an endless supply of fun.

The way hitscan was handled was interesting too; unlike other games were enemies were represented as "big boxes" (the whole sprite / using hitboxes like Half-Life), Blood checked if you actually hit the visible part of the sprite of its transparent pixels (pretty much like Doom III, where hit detection is done using the actual triangle of the model instead of hitboxes). These tweaks impact the way weapons feel in Blood, it put the game apart.

So what did another of their gay remasters break this time?

>>16454591

>Seriously though, regardless of the game, every weapon is basically doing the exact same thing: you pull the trigger and it kills things.

The flare gun doesn't kill enemies instantly, though. Every weapon have small gimmicks, but that's enough to differentiate them and making them more fun.

>>16454810

>The flare gun doesn't kill enemies instantly, though.

You tell me?

>When I first played the game, I assumed the flare-gun worked like a standard pistol only to realize you had to WAIT for the flame to consume the enemy. It's deadly, will grind health slowly, and it requires a bit of understand of how the gun works to make good use of it (it's not a hitscan weapon, and it doesn't instantly kill enemies).

That would be nice, as the DarkXL project went open source but I don't think any real progress has come from it. Overall I don't mind playing it in DOSBox but it does suffer an annoying bug with sliding across ice physics breaking if you are emulating the clock speed too high.

>>16456423

>implying the zoomers on PSN would actually want to play any of these games.

Is the AI sometimes having a stroke and having to move towards the most outer bounds of the map before they'll start paying attention to you or being shot at by you a bug that was in the DOS version too? Because it's silly seeing it here.

>>16456466

That can partially be fixed by going for the cleats as soon as possible, but it's easy to fall off the cliffs near where they are.

devs already said how to play multiplayer without either steam or galaxy

>You can use "spawnipserver" and "connectip <ip>" in the console to host or directly connect to people without the need for GOG or Steam.

>>16457300

Shit you beat me to it. I was halfway through a phonepost that I'd gotten multi to work via >>16451376 's method, only that you needed to remove the : from connectip (Host IP):5029.

However I'm still trying to figure out how to get an actual BloodBath game going. I can start a BloodBath game, but the only maps I can see that I have an option for are the campaign levels. I don't know the commandline wizardry for buildshit but I assume I could just start a fucked BloodBath game on E1M1 and then command line map change it to a BB map. Only I don't know the command to change maps, or the map names for the BB maps.

>>16457308

When you hit New Game as a host, there's a Bloodbath episode in the episode select menu.

I've also tried to run multiplayer this way, but clients don't sync with the server for reasons unknown, even if I just connect to myself.

>>16457300

Any games servers up? Lets play this for gamenight tomorrow. Also, does anyone know a torrent service i can put the full version of the game out on so people don't have to buy it for gamenight?

>>16450913

This port is a fucking mess, it doesn't have completely game-braking bugs, but some of the issues are just amateur. Easily the worst Kaiser work so far, did anyone even test this port? Not even Devolver Digital ports of Duke and SW were as bad, but for some reason people praise it as a second coming of Christ while there is BloodGFX and NBlood which are superior to Kaiser version. I hope he fixes this because a game like Blood deserved better than this barebones work.

>>16457558

What issues are you speaking about? I never played the original so i wouldn't know the difference.

>>16457568

Music never restarts if you die, load the game or start a new game, music volume option is irrelevant if you use CD music, some blood flying effects are missing and blood ground sprites tend to float in air, voxels are stretched, cultists and fanatics voices are mixed, there were some wrong palette swaps with cultists at least, some sound effects and sprites in general are fucked up, AI doesn't behave properly. Multiplayer also is rather rough and laggy for non-hosts and has some other bugs.

There is way more than that and I bet there is bigger list made by someone who tried to compare it to original. This port is raw and is very unpolished, but at least it doesn't crash I guess. For now I'd rather stick with BloodGFX or NBlood and I think both ports have multiplayer too which isn't stable either as far as I know.

>>16457658

Actually, there is this video, make sure to check the description though because it has bigger list of issues.

Does anyone want to play multiplayer? I'm down for some deathmatch (fuck that coop gay shit)

>>16457558

Lets be real brother, a java port and fucking bloodgfx are much shittier for different reasons. There has never been a good way to play blood on post-9X windows

>>16457658

>>16457665

All fair points and thank you for taking the time to let me know. Maybe ill get one of the other 2 options if they don't update it soon.

And to add to the list of bugs, if you change video setting while in game, it does in fact crash at least for me. Maybe it doesn't play nice with AMD cpus.

>>16457730

Let's gather some more people, only two will be too boring (some maps are so big)

>>16457747

Start a Blood MP thread. I'm sure someone will be interested. I can link the magnet for people so they don't have to buy it just to play some MP.

>>16451383

Why would journos write articles about this? What? You think those fags actually played games like Blood or Titan Quest?

>>16457727

Yes, absolutely. But BloodGFX with NBlood are better at being DOS alternatives than KEX version which is the main problem there. However NBlood uses EDuke32 engine and this is the one I personally play, it's not Java or other shit. I hope they improve it and make it a define Blood sourceport if Kaiser won't fix it though.

>>16457730

>if you change video setting while in game, it does in fact crash at least for me

I saw a lot of people complaining about rendering as well. As I said, it's a mess and Kaiser should fucking fix it. I could understand if he had no experience with reverse-engineering various games, but for a guy who did ports for a lot of games it's really unforgivable.

>I WANT JOJO, I WANT JOJO, JOJO, JOJO!!!!

what did they mean by this? could it be…

>>16454545

>tiptoe everywhere

Someone doesn't understand how the secondary function of the dynamite works. Nor do they understand that ducking makes you dodge hitscan attacks more. Maybe get good before pretending that you know anything about the genre?

>>16457665

That's odd, when I press crouch, I stay crouched until I re-press the crouch key. Is there any way to disable that?

>>16458257

>Someone doesn't understand how the secondary function of the dynamite works

Never played this game before, what it do? Also is this the first FPS with alternate firing modes?

>>16458285

The primary fire of the dynamite is a contact explosion, the secondary is a timed explosive that you can bank around corners. You can peek around a corner, see there are hitscanners, and throw dynamite that banks into them, or just throw it straight at them. There's a reason almost all the hitscanners in Blood are positioned in tight groups. Really good players jump in and out of combat, ducking when not in cover, jumping over zombie heads while dropping bundles of dynamite to blow them up at the perfect position so that they can dash away before the explosion expands and hurts them. It looks almost like a John Woo movie. Notice how he is ducking around 1:15-1:25 in this video, that's because there are a couple of cultists shooting at him from across the room. He only gets hit a couple of times for negligible damage even though they must have shot at him several times over that time period.

>>16458285

>>16458297

Maybe a Michael Bay film would be more appropriate considering it's explosions and not dual pistols.

Also, I do not know if Blood was the first FPS with alternate fire modes, but it is definitely one of the first. Technically Duke3D had the pipebombs which allowed you to throw multiple at once and blow them up, which required you to select the pipebomb again after you had thrown one. That's kind of like an alternate fire mode.

Does it still play properly with mods? I'm not reading this tranny's magnum opus.

>>16457658

Oddly music failing to loop upon reloading the game is a bug in the original game, in fact there's a specific DOSbox fix made specifically for it. Everything else you mentioned is correct though. I can't stand BloodGDX because the dynamite throwing just feels off, but I'm replaying the game with NBlood right now and it's fantastic and works just fine. I'm disappointed because I really like having the power up timer in the new Nightdive port and the ability to play with custom difficulty settings is a great idea. I would hope they would go about fixing all the shit they fucked up soon but I have a feeling that Nightdive currently have legions of retarded ledditors praising this port as the new second coming so I'm not sure how motivated they'd be to fix it fast enough. I do think, though, that I'll at least keep the pirated copy I have if only so that in case you niggers decide to start up some multiplayer I can try that out.

>>16458274

Yeah there should be a gameplay option to turn off crouch toggle. No idea why that would be on by default. In fact, I also don't know why the Turok weapon wheel is on by default either; if you're playing blood and don't have the exact weapon in mind that you want at any given time, you're already fucking dead. sage because double post

Why are so many fags in here writing novellas?

>>16458323

Deathwish doesn't seem to work, maybe more straightforward maps that don't use hacky tricks to do cool shit would work. But I'm guessing many of the more interesting mods aren't going to work well.

>>16458351

>Oddly music failing to loop upon reloading the game is a bug in the original game

Well, it still doesn't excuse lack of fix in a goddamn sourceport which they're actually sell, especially when completely free sourceports fixed even this shit. But yeah, I remember it now that you mentioned it. I forgot about this bug because of the fix actually and none of the recent sourceports had it either. Not sure if it happens on Windows 98 though, been long since I played the game on original hardware.

>I have a feeling that Nightdive currently have legions of retarded ledditors praising this port as the new second coming so I'm not sure how motivated they'd be to fix it fast enough

My thought exactly. Fuck, every single YouTuber praises this mess except for one guy I linked above which also listed dozen legit problems with it, I've seen only a few hardcore Blood fans criticizing the thing and calling it shit even. I guess people standards are too low these days, I bet if Megaton didn't exist people would praise World Tour as well.

However in bad case scenario there is always EDuke32 version which has attention of EDuke32 devs themselves so NBlood does indeed has a bright future, the only things it lacks are polished multiplayer and more EDuke32 features, so I'm not worried. The worst thing of course is that there is still no sourceport based on original source code.

>>16458586

>Well, it still doesn't excuse lack of fix in a goddamn sourceport which they're actually sell, especially when completely free sourceports fixed even this shit

Oh I agree, I mean hell even in that thread linked earlier with the GDX guy in it there's some retard going

>so many people don't realize that these bugs were in the original game so it's okay that they're still there

Nigger if you're charging $10 for a game I would hope that literally 20+ year old bugs would be fucking fixed.

>I guess people standards are too low these days

For a game like Blood? I don't think so. The Jewtubers praising it without mentioning a single one out of the myriad of flaws, bugs and inconsistencies looking at you, Goymanlives are doing it because they were obviously paid to shill it. Everyone else praising it blindly are just your average leddit fags that want to to talk about "how BADASS muh retro le boomer-tier fps games" are. There were never any standards to begin with.

No one really cares about Hexen anymore, not even with source-ports that work online and shit.

Blood is way better than that.

>>16459455

>No one really cares

That's some very merchanty behavior.

>>16459425

As much as I like Shadow Warrior, it suffers from poor level design quite a lot and it's too short. Blood is definitely better than SW, although I like SW setting more and those games are pretty different anyway. It really lacks good designed city maps, I wish there was more something like seppuku station. SW straight is that it uses updated Build engine and they even added shit like cars or turrets you can control.

>>16459453

> And people still have the nerve to claim BloodGDX is worst that this $9 abomination.

I seriously can't understand why the fuck people claim that. I've seen plenty of cretins who actually said this bullshit, one of them claimed that BloodGDX lacked some features which was complete bullshit.

>This shit is everywhere, how do you still fail to see it?

Fuck, it's not like some random YouTubers are expensive anyway.

I wouldn't know as I didn't try and do that. What I did was I used spawnipserver on the main menu, then I hit multiplayer options. I loaded up a multiplayer map (a campaign level as at the time I didn't know how to get to bloodbath levels) and once I was in game I had a friend use his gog copy and connect to me with connectip (My IP) 5029

I didn't have to connect to myself after I used the server command, I just played via the instance I started the server with.

>>16459607

Where is multiplayer options? Did you click host game afterwards? That tries to connect me to the galaxy server. Also thank you for being patient i'm a tech brainlet.

Then hit New Game. You'll get a bunch of options to configure your multiplayer game and then start it.

>>16459488

>What sets it apart from the other similar shooters

Blood is a game where the basic enemies are hitscanners that can decimate your health bar in mere seconds. It's also a game where you can walk up to a room with said hitscanners and fuck them up without getting shot once, since crouching, jumping and running around like a madman shooting and diving through the air serves the purpose of throwing off the aim of said hitscanners.

It has a really good shotgun that reloads quick, packs an insane punch and it just helps that the sound design of the game is excellent and you're bound to get an erection when you clear a room and hear those sweet cultist screams.

It's also got some TECHNOLOGY with explosions where instead of just being damaged depending on distance, but instead it's a pushback sphere that grows in size while damaging you over the duration of the sphere growth, so you can end up throwing a TNT right in the middle of a group of enemies and be rewarded with a shitton of screams and enemies flying from the immensely satisfying knockback.

Blood also has a really good arsenal. The pistol is a flaregun that deals damage over time so you can fire and forget it while focusing on other enemies. The shotgun is great. The tommygun is meh until you get an akimbo powerup in which case it's a fucking dakka machine and there's nothing more satisfying than jumping into a room and alt firing dual tommys. The TNT is one of the most fun grenades I've had. Just the way it damages and the weight it has to throwing it makes me feel great. The napalm lawnchair is a great rocketlauncher and so is the alt fire that lobs a heavy glob of napalm that explodes into smaller napalm blobs. The plasma gun feels excellent to use, especially the alt fire. The life leech and voodoo doll are meh, the first feels awkward to use and the latter is pretty much the anti-stone gargoyle weapon.

I won't claim it's perfect, Episode 3 is when the game really doubles down on the bullshit and Episode 4 is infuriating, the bosses are meh, Stone Gargoyles and Revenants are shit enemies, with the former basically stopping the game dead in its tracks and forcing you to run out of voodoo ammo, and the latter being the same, except shotgun ammo instead of voodoo ammo and it's a fucking loud enemy that more often than not will leave you muting your speakers whenever you meet them.

It's just an overall very solid game. Try BloodGDX and see for yourself, go for Lightly Broiled or Well Done, avoid Extra Crispy. You'll die and feel like the game is nothing but bullshit, but stick with it and learn how to deal with hitscanners and going prone and you'll be having a blast in no time.

>>16460538

<multiplayer is locked behind GOG Galaxy/Steamworks

This is a port that has a lot of issues but lets just get everything straight. You can play multi without Galaxy or Steamworks, you can direct connect via IP in the command console.

Host at the main screen uses 'spawnipserver' to create the server and forwards port 5029, other players use 'connectip [HOST IP GOES HERE] 5029' and they connect. Then the host hits New Game (NOT MULTIPLAYER) and then sets up the game, whether it's DM/Team/COOP.

I will agree with you that the multi seems really poorly implemented, there's no UI for the host to actually control the server via mapchange or any of the stuff you mentioned. However there is a lot of misinfo going around about that you cannot play multi without galaxy/steam.

>>16460447

>Stone Gargoyles and Revenants

Nah, just equip the shotgun, let them come to you and unload two shells right in their face; they'll be kicked back by the impact and you'll have time to reload before they get too close again. I love shooting these fuckers.

>>16460538

>>true 3D view so shit doesn't get horribly warped when you look up and down

NBlood actually sort of has this as well, if you use the Polymost renderer instead of classic you can look up and down without everything warping.

>>16451982

Try launching into SP and running: spawnipserver

Nobody in thread mentioned ZBloody Hell yet. It seems to be the best fan remake so far.

>>16460838

What does it have over NBlood?

>>16460844

ZBlood runs on gzdoom/zdoom, which many doom players already have on their pc's. If you despise doom, then feel free to stop reading.

The guy making Zblood also said he isn't trying to make an identical remake, but improve upon it a little. So that's either a good or bad thing depending on who you ask.

>>16460865

It's missing essential features like damage types and stuff.

The only good thing is that you can play Survival mode with friends, a mode that should exist in more games.

>>16460666

I don't deny Revenants are easy and nothing less than a shotgun ammo dump, but they're boring to fight and feel like they exist solely to yell at you really loudly. Basically those annoying monsters from Shadow Warrior who seem to only exist to make REALLY LOUD noises.

>>16460844

Short answer: nothing, really. It's just an interesting Doom mod.

Long answer: it's readily accessible because just about everybody has ZDoom or some variant. It plays like an inferior port of Blood (like the GBA port of Doom) but it *is* a port of the game to an entire different engine. In fact, that's part of the charm. It's really fascinating to see how the game is basically rebuilt from scratch, though as a trade-off you get things like no voxels, skipped levels because the author has a big workload and wants to prioritize the most fun ones, weird enemy and weapon mechanics, etc.

>>16460538

>no texture filtering options

It's actually surprising, but fuck shitty filters anyway, they're always terrible for sprite-based video games.

>I also want to add they removed One Unit Whole Blood from sale from GOG in favor for this

People were saying that it now comes with Kaiser Blood as a bonus. So, at least it's not as bad as it was with Megaton or pretty much any other Duke 3D versions. But for comparison, you could buy Megaton and original version separately meanwhile Megaton had DOSBox version by default, until of course World Tour came out which has no expansions or DOSBox version either. So yep, they handled it rather poorly with Blood which doesn't surprise me.

>>16460729

BloodGDX has Polymost render too. So, "true 3D" isn't a real improvement which make it stand out of sourceports. If it lacked this feature, the port would be actually even more inferior to free ones. This is the weakest argument people are using to justify getting Kaiser version. In fact, the only impressive thing about the render is that Kaiser probably made it himself, just like the people who developed Polymost.

He's a leftist cuck trying to pretend that he's edgy. He went out of his way to avoid burning gays in Postal, got triggered by the racist humor in Shadow Warrior, whined about non-jewtube video sites that allow "Neo-Nazi" videos on their front pages, and engaged in passive aggressive "he who must not be named" bullshit over some alt-kike faggot who cameo'd in Paradise Lost.

>>16463627

That's true for all e-celebs but I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts.

>>16463641

Hey definitely curbs himself too much for my taste but he hasn't "gone Spoony" yet and I give it a year or two before he jumps the shark. That or after he hits about 100k subscribers, which ought to be any week now especially since he's being shilled on plebbit.

I'm mostly just trying to figure out where he came from. Popped onto YouTube about a year ago with a whole presentation nailed-down. Has a TV Tropes page about him?! Seems way too polished for an amateur. Surely this guy has a history somewhere and has been around for awhile. I'd like to know more before making a final judgement call.

But I think to a degree you guys get too triggered. I don't like people self-censoring, either, and I know it's nice to have someone go balls-to-the-wall but these days even saying words like "cuck" will have a lot of people just not watch your videos. Would be better if he didn't give a shit for sure, but I also wouldn't be surprised if YouTube penalized channels that didn't try to appeal to a more mainstream audience to some degree. I don't recall him getting too buttblasted over Shadow Warrior, except to say it probably wouldn't fly these days (which is often said about a lot of things, including Blazing Saddles), and he's not wrong that alternative video websites are generally spammed with white supremacy and conspiracy theory videos and their algorithms do nothing to penalize this. That's observational. I will ding him for not wanting to mention people by name and refusing to use the word "cunt", though, which is a bit too far.

they are basically responsible for every nightdive studio release, it's really not surprising a furry is orienting re releases of old abadoned games, the gaming community is infested with them in case you haven't noticed, sperg.

Weren't Nightdive also responsible for why Powerslave EX is kind of incomplete?

I know we shouldn't think in extremes, but who gets to decide where the line gets drawn? Retards that make objective moral arguments for what comedy is allowed and what isn't never directly disclose what they think is fine to say, or what they think is funny.

It doesn't matter how straight or squiggly the lines are. What matters is whether you can do tricks like draw the line through a house or loop over the edge of the paper (exit the paper on the left side and come back on the right side or something like that). In this particular case it cannot be done without tricks, no matter how much you try to twist the lines.

WHEN THE FUCK IS BLOOD GOING TO GET A SOURCE PORT ON THE LEVEL OF ZDOOM!? OR EVEN A DECENT SOURCE PORT AT ALL?!? GODDAMN!

>>16465958

not as long as the source code is in limbo. Hopefully Fresh Supply can be salvaged and Atari just forced it out early to get a quick return or something.

>>16465958

NBlood and BloodGDX are far from the level of ZDoom but they work perfectly well and you can play the game as it's intended from start to finish on them. Refer to this

honestly I am not even fucking surprised. still, Blood GDX is miles better this re-release was completely unnecessary.

Should I try BloodGDX or just go with ZBlood?

>BuildGDX

Yes, it is. That's because M210 decided to bundle Tekwar, Blood and Witchaven into the same package. That's what you want.

>>16468295

Fair.

Also, how do I get to House of Horrors? Never quite got there myself.

>>16468339

If I recall, near the end of Dark Carnival (E1M4), there's an exploding bridge, instead of going underwater, you have to go all the way across the bridge and blow up the wall. There's a room with a small puzzle where each symbol is a key you own, you have to order the symbols so they match the order in which you picked the keys.

>>16468221

Both feel similar, I guess? NBlood has a more accurate BUILD Engine style "mouse-look," where your view gets fucked. GDX on the other hand dosen't fuck the visuals for proper mouse-look.

>>16468726

At one point of another, they wouldn't work between versions. But I kept mine updated so that there wasn't a huge jump between versions. I think maybe anything before .75 won't work. But anything newer should. Just replay the levels again

I played it on medium way back on other source ports, died a lot but it was fun.

This time, I went with Gmanlives' recommendation and played on custom (last one on the list), with everything medium but high monster count.

Fresh Supply just got updated, here's some notables

https://steamcommunity.com/games/1010750/announcements/detail/1620645290559247391

>Remove the three extra recoil SFX for Cultists,

>Fix video crash when switching from OpenGL to other renderers,

>Fix CD audio music not being present when reloading a level,

>Removed the pre-fire animation for tesla weapon,

>Fix the FoV slider being uncapped when using the arrow keys or controller (no 666 FoV anymore),

>Major revision to virtual vram system and shaders. Height is now only padded for wall textures now. Fixes tiling issues with non power of 2 texture widths,

>Concussion damage is now scaled against tick scale, making gibbing to occur more easily,

>Changed jump height for getting out of water back to the original height. This broke E2M2,

>Spraycan and HellHound missiles now deal correct damage type and burn time,

>Jumping boots now negate all pummel (includes fall) damage,

>Pressing use now performs a standard hitscan operation. This resolves some issues in DWE1M9.

>Enemies now correctly avoid water,

>Fixing DWE2M1 bug with player start spawns,

>Akimbo Napalm weapon now plays the correct firing animation as seen in DOS version 1.21 (was using the old 1.0 one)

>Players are now always respawned with 100 health, regardless of what the level start has,

>Tesla weapon now fires one extra projectile at the end of its firing animation,

>Add support for private and friend lobbies,

>Add support for private and friend lobbies

Any images of this please?

>Jumping boots now negate all pummel (includes fall) damage,

holy shit did they actually somehow fuck this up too? how the fuck did they release this? what deranged timeline were they under to have this half-baked "remaster" out that this was considered an acceptable state?

The amount of bugs I've seen so far from anons, videos, and myself makes me wonder what the process behind this was because I don't think anything else they've done this for has turned out such a shitshow from the get-go. Ignoring whatever they're doing with SS1, of course.

>>16471552

My guess is that Nightdive may have forced the dude to "finish" this half-baked after NBlood came out. I mean they had announced that they were remastering Blood for a while now, but there were already two perfectly playable "sourceports" with minimal problems that people were already playing. I think they wanted to get their remaster out the door as quickly as possible so that people would buy it as the "definitive" version of the game on modern systems as opposed to all the ways to play the game for free.

>>16471552

People sees this as an "official release", likely because "oh my God! It's done by a real company and not some fan, it's distributed on a real platform, and it costs real money if I want it". That's one thing.

People have been buying crap like unfinished, broken, unplayable, day-one patch, pre-purchase shit for the past decade. It's normal at this point to have people praising this pile of shit.

Some examples of bugs that are still in the new updated version of Fresh Supply. Also according to the video description multiplayer is even worse now, can't confirm that though. Thank fuck I didn't pay money for this shit.

>HUD doesn't show up on Blood 0.951

Hwere's the option to turn it on

>>16471552

I think it's rushed thanks to Atari.

>>16472357

lol

Anyone? There's no options for it in the fucking options.

>>16471552

It was rushed out for release.

Press t to enter cheat codes, and then enter 'mario' (without quotes). In vanilla it would let you choose to warp to any level, but here it will just say 'not implemented yet…'. That should tell you all you need to know.

>>16471925

What's with the weapon models? They seem off, somehow.

>>16472475

You mean the sprites in 1st-person or the voxels on the ground? Because I've seen people complain that some of the old voxels are fucked up.

Anyone with the current version of BloodGDX, is the HUD there? Is there a key to disable/reenable it? I can't fucking play properly if I don't know my health, ammo, and other shit.

>>16472646

Have you tried "-" and "+"? Really retarded question tbh. That's usually was the key for shrinking\expanding screen with HUD in it.

Still, the music is absent from it as well, which blows.

>>16472854

Yes? What about it?
