Chinese Tony Danza posted:I don't know about migrating installs, but I can tell you from experience that GOG installers will not work on anything older than XP. Tried installing Carmageddon 2 on my Windows 98 laptop a while back and it just kept complaining loudly that it wasn't meant for this version of Windows. Pretty funny considering a great deal of GOG games predate XP... There isn't any reason why migrating installs shouldn't work.

It's really weird how hostile this thread got at the suggestion that maybe we should try to get more people who aren't white or hispanic dudes into the community.  Like, it was worded in kind of a confrontational and jargon-y way, but it's not a bad sentiment.

You know, I seriously have to wonder why more indie devs don't gently caress around with any of the open-source idTech engines, given how hot "old-school style FPSes" were for a while. You'd think making a new IWAD for the Doom engine (or poo poo, messing with one of the Quake engines) wouldn't be that tall of an order. e: where I'm going with this is, a full game built around DoomRPG/DoomRLA's mechanics would kick so much rear end

So uh... in DoomRPG/DoomRLA I just got a nuclear powered BFG. What the gently caress does this thing do other than kill me, exactly? It seems like I can't get it to fire, just overload.

I wonder why more Doom ports don't have split-screen multiplayer. Seems like it would be trivial enough, even though it would also require better controller support.

How the hell do some of those Build glitches even happen?  The double-door thing and Duke dying from running into a control panel are just baffling to me.

Elliotw2 posted:They're all the same basic glitch, you move so fast and hit a moving object, so you clip through it. In Duke 3D, if you are inside terrain the engine automatically crushes you, so basically all of these glitches are falling out of the map bounds. That still doesn't explain how the poo poo double doors manage to break reality. That's like Space Station 13 or Dwarf Fortress levels of bizarre glitching.

What early FPSes support local multiplayer other than Serious Sam, if any? I'm really curious, 4-player Quake deathmatches on the couch without having to gently caress with an N64 would be rad.

laserghost posted:At least no one tries to defend Redneck Rampage. Well, the soundtrack was really good. I like Redneck Rampage decently enough! It's not "one of the greatest FPS of all time" tier like Duke and Blood, but it takes a solid third place for me. (Shadow Warrior, race issues aside, is way the gently caress too hard even compared to Duke, which is not an easy game to begin with.) e: honestly it's kind of a running theme with Build games that they're all way harder than they reasonably should be, but it's particularly egregious with Shadow Warrior.

I have definitely played AVP2 successfully on a computer with lots of USB poo poo plugged in, I think it just doesn't play nice with newer Windows without a patch. (which, iirc, exists.)

Shadow Hog posted:I can name a few issues with it compared to the Saturn version - and did, in the Doomworld thread, in fact - though it's still fairly completable, sure. (And really, not having played the PS1 version, it's hard to say how much was a PS1 vs. Saturn difference as opposed to a PS1 vs. EX difference.) My understanding is that there are significant differences between the two console versions, yeah.

So wait... why, exactly, is TerminX taking the high ground about all the Gearbox stuff he knows? He's not under an NDA, so it won't gently caress him in court, and they're not exactly doing a lot to foster good will from him. And he's past the point of an out-of-court settlement, apparently, given that even Gearbox's lawyers are stonewalling his lawyer, so he doesn't need the leverage for that. Put me in his shoes and I'd be doing everything I could to gently caress up Gearbox's plans.

I'm thinking less Apocalypse Now and more Nam's Angels or Rambo for a theoretical NAM remake, which seems more in Flying Wild Hog's wheelhouse. And yeah, Blood would be probably the best fit for them. e: I mean, the plot of NAM is that you're a genetically engineered super soldier thrown into the jungles of Vietnam.
