My favourite robot sound is the Class 1 Driller's taunt. It sounds like a pig's squeal. Funny!

I think the Secondary Lifter's scream (\"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!\"

) is the scariest robot sound in Descent 1.

Escorter

Thanks! I never heard of it, but it's cool!

Now another D2X-XL question: how can I edit the .fnt font files? Is there any font editor for this format?

Escorter

No I don't think it's an essential feature. But you said:

In a nutshell: the D1 support in D2X-XL is just a D1 "mod" for D2.

Escorter

Okay, I'm understand. D2X-XL is for D2, the D1 support is just a little improvement. It's sad to hear, because there are no usefull D1 win32 ports.

Diedel wrote:I don't even know how D1 movies are stored.

Movies? It's not a movie. It's a text sequence, like D2 Vertigo's end sequence.

Escorter

I mean the final movie (\"Craft lurches when I spark the subluminal engine...\")

Escorter

After I exited from Descent 1 Level 27 (the final level), the end \"movie\" not played. Why?

Now that's why I hate offices!

Escorter

My Condolences.

Escorter

Diedel,

I discovered this on Descent 1 level 26

Escorter

Hi everybody!

In Descent 1, the PTMC described as Post-terran Minerals Corporation. But in Descent 3, it called Post-terran Mining Corporation.

Now which is the correct name?

Escorter

What the hell is the \"Fusion power\" slider in the gameplay options menu? It seems to have no effect.

Escorter

Some robots (both D1 and D2 mode) just disappearing (not the thief , nor the boss). No explosion, no debris, no leftover energy/shield/missile/weapon.

But:

It's not Diedel's fault. I noticed the same problem in the DOS version of D1X, and the original D2X.

I don't think Descent is dead. It's my all-time favourite game. And I'm a huge fan of it!

Escorter

Hmmm... I'm currently developing a Descent clone, too.

It's possible to use the D1 robot sounds in D1 mode?

Escorter

Then how can I disable the D1 exit movie?

Escorter

Now I switched it to 0. And the game crashes when I go throught the exit door...

d2x.ini wrote:don't playback cut scenes movies, but allow robot movies

It set to 1, but it still play the D1 mine exit movie.

Escorter

The D1 exit sequence crashes again in my machine. It's possible to add a switch to the d2x.ini for enabling/disabling the exit tunnel movie?

Escorter

Hmm... Unfortunately, I can't remember that level.
I'm going to play it again tomorrow.

Did you mean the Homunculus?

After I tried to load a D1 savegame, I can't start d2x-xl at all! Looks like I need a clean D2/D1 reinstall, too...

Escorter

Congratulations!

NOOOO!!!!! DESCENT LIVES!

The datafiles are correct, but the savegame wich I tried to load was created by an older version of D2X-XL. But no problem, I restarted level 20. It's fun to hunt down the Class 2 platform robots and Medium Lifters with the level 1 laser

Escorter

Looks like my machine has a bad day

Escorter

The latest version can't load D1 savegames

Escorter

OK, let's forget about the briefing. It's not necessary.

Thanks again for the exit sequence fix!

Escorter

Nice work, Diedel!
The exit tunnel movie doesn't crash any more!!!!!!!!!!

But I discovered a problem: no briefing in D1 missions.
It's possible to fix it?

Escorter

COOL! You fixed the exit crash. (No exit tunnel movie, but who cares?)

You're a GOD!

Escorter

Looks like the latest version has problems with the D1 mssion:

It happens when I start a new D1 game, too...

Escorter

Diedel, it's possible to put a debug mode compiled D2x-XL executable to your page?

When I runned D2X in debugger, the crash not happenned.
But I'm no longer using MSVC, and I don't want to reinstall it.

Escorter

Great. Just great...

Escorter

My WIndows is hungarian, and I can't translate the error message (now). So it's not very usefull for you, but it's here: http://upload2.postimage.org/3892/krash.jpg It says the instruction in the memory adress 0x77f53741 can't execute the procedure \"written\" on memory adress 0x08364092

Escorter

I think the D1 exit crash is related to the sound system. I turned off the MIDI music (set the volume to the minimum), because I listened MP3s with Winamp in the background during I played. The exit sequence started correctly, when the Pyro fly out from the tunnel in the surface, D2X-XL crashed with...

Where can I get this level? It's COOL!

Escorter

Yeah, let's forget about the GB. Wingnut doesn't make critical amount of damage with his flares.

BTW the d2 exit and the d1 load game bug doesn't comes out with the old menu style.
