If we can somehow make the goon run an annual thing then I know how I'll do liberty Island next summer. Gonna climb the outside of the statue, sneak down to free Gunther, and let him take over murderbot duties. I'm also down with doing IW next. I haven't booted it up in donkeys ears but I'm pretty sure there's enough bodies in the first outdoors section that I can ragdoll them into a milk crate pile and climb to the end of the level early.

I believe that there is a mod that makes the game more seamless and reduces many loading transitions. That might be for Thief 3 only, though, since they were made in the same engine.

I think the nature of IW’s development make it too messy to salvage Inside of its own engine. Best bet would be rebuilding it in something else. Personally I think just demaking it as a DX1 mod would be appropriate.

I finally got around to releasing part of the graphical enhancement project I worked on last year. https://www.moddb.com/mods/crispy-deus-ex/ I never got around to fixing the problems with changing level textures so it's just character, item, and decoration enhancements for now.

Your character starts out in a restaurant bathroom with a co-worker calling your infolink (through an incredibly lovely microphone, naturally) so he can tell you it's your turn to get zyme for your boss from the "coffee" stand across the street. Whatever the gently caress's going on, it makes zero sense, and the UI colors are an eyesore, and I never saw Chicago or Seattle or any indication of what year it's supposed to be. It's either a slice of life outside a WTO compound, or an extremely incongruous Burden of 80 Proof imitation, or a bunch of poo poo the mod creator thought was cool and threw together with no regard for if they fit. My money's on option number 3. There was a mention in the readme file that I might have downloaded the "IWR community update" which apparently removes some gratuitous edgelord bullshit, including weird obscenities and slurs and cannibalism. Sure I went in with low expectations, but I was actually amazed by how the mod went out of its way so it could fail to meet them.

I loved going to UNATCO for the first time and throwing stuff at Manderley sitting at his desk “Grow up, JC!” “You’ll behave like a professional!”

Screwed around with pool and managed to get breaks to work. Originally balls couldn't bounce for 20 milliseconds after a previous bounce (probably to prevent the rack from exploding). https://i.imgur.com/CrPM735.mp4

Gaius Marius posted:Getting called out for finding the hidden room in Nameless Mod was delightful TNM suffers a lot from its jokey nature and weird "it's just the Internet" conceit so it doesn't really feel like your choices have much impact, but it does inarguably have more complex branching paths than DX1. One of my favorites that comes to mind is a quest to get some files from a bartender and old friend; he won't give them up no matter what so you have to take them off his body. You can knock him out and continue along the moderator critical path, but when you get back to the city after the next mission the bar will have been bombed and everyone inside killed, including the owner if you injured him non-lethally.

Speaking of, anyone know if the TNM 2.0 stuff in the Steam Workshop for DX: Revision is any good? I really enjoyed the original back in the day and am curious if the update is worth checking out.

jojoinnit posted:Everyone with a gun can kill you and you can turn almost any friendly hostile. Here's where it got interesting. I run back to avoid and UNATCO guards come running in. I didn't have time to see if they were meant to be hostile to me for attacking Simons because one of the plasma bursts immediately hits a trooper. This turns all troopers against Simons and suddenly there's a firefight and it turns out everyone at UNATCO hq is hard-coded to be invincible until the time you're supposed to be able to kill them later. Since nobody can die it's just endless grunting and blood. The most surprising part was that Manderley came downstairs to join in, on the troopers side. I was just completely ignored. This just went on and on until I quit out, as they're all invincible and won't go back to normal state cause nobody would stop shooting at somebody. I hope this screenshots are legible enough. I don't know why but it captures them darker than it actually is on my screen.     E: Just noticed on the second pic that you can see UNATCO is green to me, so I guess the whole place was just intentionally protecting their boy and investment, JC.

SolidSnakesBandana posted:I love how in Nameless Mod you can non-lethally take out the bosses and people will notice One of the Belltower commanders in Human Revolution is a guy named Khan who leads the raid to hunt down the Dutch hacker in Hengsha. If he survives that encounter, he'll be in his office at Tai Yong Medical when you infiltrate the building. If he survives that he'll be guarding the port where the Hei Zhen Zhu is docked. There's apparently a couple missable conversations regarding him too: a couple guards in the TYM building normally discuss how brutal Khan is; if he's dead at that point, they will instead be pissing themselves about who could kill a guy like that. The wiki also claims that if you escape the construction site on your second Hengsha visit quickly enough, Khan will be the one to execute Malik if he's alive. All that for one guy who doesn't even have augs, iirc.

I shot Walton Simons after he finished his conversations and is just standing near the cells. He went hostile and started peppering me with plasma. It's been a while since I read Sunglasses at Night, but I seem to recall hearing that you can do similar things by turning the cleaning robot against you, stepping on its head - the troopers are friendly to you but the robot is now mad at you, so...

I definitely stepped over the cleaning bots a million times as a kid and don't remember it doing anything but angrily moving faster and maybe emitting sparks. I'll investigate this for sure though.
