SOURCE CODE WHEN?
>>
go play this game faggots its 100% better than the trash you call good. just show some interest so those faggots at atari give us the source
>>
>>340264901
now that GoG and HD remasters are a thing, putting value back into old games, you'll never see a source code release of anything ever again because they could resell you the game and make money instead.

How about BloodCM? That's practically a source port :^)

well give me a remaster I dont give a shit if its a commercial port I just want the game to live again

I spoke to Jason Hall over a decade ago about it. He said after the two acquisitions, it's likely the source code is forever lost.

Sorry.

Does a satisfying non-dosbox Blood experience exist at this point in time? I heard some guy from /vr/was working on a source port but not sure what's happening.

Kaizer is his name and he's a turboautist of the highest caliber. He's already reverse engineered Doom 64, Strife and Powerslave.

Otherwise no, there's Eduke32 total conversion called BloodCM but it's just a total conversion.

Dosbox at the moment. Looks ugly and the mouselook is not the best, but they don't actually do much to hinder the experience of the game. Definitely worth playing. Get it from GoG
>>
>>340268250
Oh it is on GoG? That is gonna make things a lot easier. Thanks

>>340268232
Kaizer, that was it. How will anyone know when it is finished? He was in a thread some time ago and although the project was in its early stages it seemed promising.
>>
>>340264901
Never. Crazy expensive.
>>
>>340268031
What >>340268250 said. You can also download bMouse to slightly improve the mouselook in Blood (and a few other Build games).

>>
>>340268521
bmouse isn't working for me for some reason. The original mouselook isn't that bad, but it seems that you have to be moving the mouse at a certain speed before the cursor moves, and the vertical sensitivity is less than the horizontal

Was there any way to get those hands off you or was it basically the facehugger of blood?

You had to mash the use key.

not true, croteam just put out the source for their serious sam 1 engine.

Homeworld remaster sold perfectly fine even though homeworld 1 source code was out there, and with mods you can actually get a better experience (in some aspects) than the remaster.

and really, outside of id's and epic's games, source code releases haven't really ever amounted to much.
>>
>>340269227
Back in 1997? I could believe it
>>
>>340265279

Apparently Jace Hall owns the copyright to it and is seeing if there's enough interest in the game to make a sort of HD remaster or something along those lines.

Noone, noone has the balls or skill to make a true sequel to Blood. You can't replicate Build games level design because you are not technically limited and ergo not forced to cram as much detail in a small map as possible. Results look like the new Shadow Warrior.

>>340269509
>new shadow warrior

And here I had almost purged it from memory.

Best thing to come out of that game was the viscera cleanup stage

>>340268563
I don't get it, why does it matter? You can easily torrent the games since they are DRM free, GOG has fixed up some games to work better on modern machines its a win win for everyone is it not?
>>
>>340269815
CD music is better to listen to, but it has fuckall for flow, thus it's better to play with midi music.

Listen to the very first level music, for example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiysYPVkVv8
It takes 1 minute and thirty seconds to get to the main melody, you can finish the whole level faster than that. It's a great track but it's way too fucking slow.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJA0SSGwuS0
Here's a midi track for comparison. No bullshit, straight into action.

>GOG has fixed up some games to work better on modern machines
Preconfiguring Dosbox isn't "fixing up".

you have to run the blood setup file and make the game use an external program.

>>
>>340270215
I wasn't talking about that , they fixed up saints row 2 so it works better since it was a piece of shit. They also released shadow of the empire so it works better. I also think that they fixed Pandora tomorrow but I'm not so sure about that one. There might be more but these are the only ones that come to mind.
>>
>>340270649
shadow of the empire was literally impossible to install on modern OSes due to using a 16 bit install file I tried to pirate it a couple years ago
>>
can i play this game with controller on steam?
>>
>>340270916
you can but you'll get buttraped not using kbm in blood
>>
>>340270916
you can use it as a generic joystick or use xpadder to bind your keys to it to use a dualstick setup. I wouldnt recommend it though blood would be hard as fuck with a controller
>>
>>340270649
nah some autist fixed PT on hiw own, surprised ubi hasn't snatched up his fix and started selling the game again

>>340269871
Well with games like Doom and Duke Nukem 3D the developers eventually released the source code, which means that people can freely play and modify the game anyway they wish and also learn how it was made etc

Torrenting GOG games is still technically illegal
>>
>>340271167
>people shouldn't have a convenient and hassle-free way of playing this game
