Do you guys know where I can learn how this game engine is working? (Might and MAgic 7)
I know for instance that games like these have fan patches, fan mods, even a full new game made out of the original engine and assets
How do theres guys do it? Do you know where I can learn specifically how to do it for this engine? it feels like the knowledge on this must be online somewhere
>>2822418
>even a full new game made out of the original engine and assets
Are you talking about Echo of Destruction? That thing won't come out I believe.
Also perhaps you should talk to Sergey a.k.a. Grayface. He just released the second version of the MMExtension which allows modifications of outer maps.

I played a bit of MM6 but the goofy character portraits prevent me from immersing myself in the game.
Is MM7 basically the same as MM6 in terms of gameplay?
>>2822758
MM7 has better mechanics, the classes are more balanced, has a good and evil path, and continues a certain bit of story from MM3 and HoMM2/3 (though you don't have to play MM3 to understand this, as MM3's actual plot can be contained to its ending video, honestly). It's pretty great. However, it was also a little rushed out, which mostly shows in that the dungeons are really lame.
MM7 rocks, whichever way you look at it. It's MM8 where most people start having issues, and nobody ever likes MM9.
I recently purchased the famicom version of Karnov, mostly to check out the manual and box. It's one of my favorite old games. I would like to know what they say, if anyone would be kind enough to translate.
Try not to dump lists and instead describe what is so great about the game(s) you are posting. I'll start with MOHU.
>great gunplay, variety of weapons, in a lot of terms unsurpassed audio design even more than 15 years later
>god tier AI with some interesting scripts that arent seen in any newer games (if you throw a grenade around gestapo dogs they will pick it up thinking its a toy and will bring it back to you, enemies jumping on grenades to save friends, dead enemies continuing to fire their weapon while falling down, etc)
>atmosphere for days, OST
>nice campaign variety in terms of stealthy missions, open shootouts, level design (going from catacombs to occupied Paris to Casablanca etc)
>lengthy missions without checkpoints, fairly challenging on harder difficulties
I just love both the first and Underground MOH game so much, though I like 2nd a bit more because of nostalgia reasons. It did have some downsides alright however (pretty weak multiplayer mode, framerate issue here and there), but I think its a fairly overlooked game, especially compared to how much fame latter installations like Frontline got.
>>2820746
It was great. Though that "Civil War" cheat you got for getting best ranks in the first level made the game considerably easier, with everyone shooting each other so you only need to pick off the final guy.

I'm not sure why, but something about this game just enthralls me. I've wasted PLENTY of time setting traps in rooms, finding efficient ways to kill people, and adding onto my mansion. I love it.

You are a piece of shit, OP. Do you find abusing helpless animals funny? Did you giggle when you saw this mouse chained up? What about when it's penis was cut off and you could see the fear in its eyes as it struggled in pain? Is that really what you find amusing or entertaining? If so, you need to take a long look into the mirror and reevaluate your life. Being edgy on the internet for attention or laughs is one of the most pathetic things a person can do and reeks of a mental deficiency. I highly doubt you would behave this way in real life or want people you associate with to know you like this kind of stuff, so why bother at all? If you can't control your urges, check into a mental hospital or get therapy.
The person who actually committed this act is the lowest of the low. Worse than niggers who cheat the system and drain tax payer dollars. Worse than inbred rednecks who think car racing is a sport. Worse than furries who jack off to anthropomorphic animals. Worse than skinhead pussies who think they're real nazi's. Worse than violent arabs who blow themselves and others up over a fictional book. Really, the only person worse than an animal abuser is a pedophile in my mind because that is also hurting a defenseless creature, although they are human.
If I had it my way you and the woman in this video would be stoned to death and left on the ground to decompose - no burial would be permitted, Antigone style. You honestly don't deserve to exist in our society and i think that you know this deep down. I dare you to share this with your co-workers, spouse, friends, relatives, etc and see what they have to say. Will they be like "LOL anon that was funny tell those peta faggots to chill or go back to tumblr" or would they look at you with a disgusted look on their face and say "That was disgusting anon, why the fuck do you have this video?" We both know what the answer is and that you won't actually take me up my offer because you're a faggot.
This game isn't as bad as people say it is.

NES version sucks, Windows version is where it's at.
>>2817939
it's not one of the worst games ever (or even one of worst on NES), but it's a deeply flawed game. different music and some polishing of the mechanics and it could have been a real solid game.

They tried to have a normal life for months after waking up, but since it didn't work out Gillian went looking for answers.
It's not perfect, but it's fun and very charming. The way you play this game is really unique, without any direct control over the character. No other pointn click does that. It also looks pretty great, especially for a Genesis game.
This game is a strange mix of horrible yet oddly compelling gameplay.
It's like the discount-store ice cream of games
>>2812123
you might enjoy playing wonder project j
>>2812123
That game plays like a younger sibling that insists on you telling them what to do in a video game, but refuses to let you actually play it for them.
Can we have a Neo Geo/AES/CD/Pocket thread?
What games would you recommend for someone looking into getting a Pocket Color?
>>2811160
The NGPC has some the best fighting games on a retro handheld, if you're into that kind of thing.
The game library itself is nothing special compared to the massive gameboy, but that's expected.
Sonic pocket adventure is the best sonic game ever made imo. There's also a pokemon clone with robots, it's pretty cool. Some of the puzzle games are pretty good too. I can't think of anything else that made this system special. It kind of sucks really, but that's the library's fault for not being varied enough and not having enough third party support.
>>2811228
I completely forgot about Metal Slug. If you get a pocket, definitely get those.
>>2811160
There are going to be like 30 people that will run in and recommend you play Card Fighters. And every last one of them is right.

Yay, another one of these. I might play it later. I watched something for beginners and it said that going into crypts are a great way to get started since they're small, and to always have a teleport spell since the dungeons are far more complicated than later elder scroll games. I-is this right?
>>2807290
Compared to the other elder scroll games the dungeons in Daggerfall are mostly labyrinthine, crypts are alright imo and as for the recall spell its really useful if you want to get out of any dungeon if you finished the objective however its not really required it is however highly recommended for beginners. Aslo you can make note on the map, watch the webm.
Mannimarco reminder:
-That Daggerfall unity 0.1.1 is out! Sexy far terrain incoming!

-Next unity build will feature indoors mapping with mouse control and beacons!
Will also feature a real world map with fast travel.

-Also DaggerXL is NOT dead! I repeat! UNDEAD! The work will resume next year and will get advances features very close to what we have now in Unity. What's your thoughts on this?

First thread
This thread is for the spirited discussion of LCD/LED/OLED displays - Televisions, monitors and projectors used for the playing of retro games!
>Try to keep it /vr/-related: Nothing past 5th gen(+Dreamcast). Slight OT might be okay if related to LCD/LED/OLEDs (E.G. 21:9 compatible models, rec. 2020, Dolby Vision screens, etc.) UHDTVs with 4K/8K and HDR are also pretty safe territory, assuming you're focusing on the older games. PC LCD/LED/OLEDs are also a-ok.
>Produce OC! Get out your real cameras and take beautiful pictures of your LCD/LED/OLEDs displaying recognizable characters with the kind of beautiful accuracy that brings tears to the eyes of young and old alike! If you take 100 photos, at least one of them will turn out alright! (maybe)
>Try to be as detailed as possible when asking info on a specific model. As always, google is your friend, and we are your friends with benefits. Older archived threads aren't a bad place to look either.
>Share appreciation for others choice of technology and personal philosophy of gaming. As always show courtesy in your discussion and moderate yourselves first.
Discussion of video processing and filtering/scaling/display methods is okay, but try to keep the focus on LCD/LED/OLEDs and LCD/LED/OLED technologies (e.g. 240Hz backlight strobing, 60Hz, real 120Hz)

Okay as OP I'll start:
Model: Sony W4000 (LCD - full pixel 1080p - 60Hz - rec. 709 - 8 bpp YCbCr444 limited range)
Backlight set to 6 to compensate for the dark WII VC colour palette.
Emulator: Nestopia Undead Edition (1080p - underscan - integer scaling by 4 - letterboxed - wii vc colour palette 32bit- no filters)
Game: The Legend of Zelda (NTSC NES)
(Excuse the Oculus Rift- tier curvature. I have a wide-angle lens)
I appreciate your enthusiasm, but don't expect this to last longer than a week

Probably something he's working on.
There have been a few threads for best story in a retro game, but what about for the nes?
The 8-bit age was the era where more advanced story-telling was just beginning to form in gaming. Often primitive, the stories told tended to be incomprehensible, jumbled, or rushed together. But there were some exceptions.
Which nes games had the best stories in your opinion?
Do people actually read that shit? I thought long ass exposition was what you hated the most about modern gaming.
Dragon Quest/Warrior 4, hands down. Its chapter structure is incredibly unique even by today's standards. Not only do the first 4 chapters tell all the character's stories before joining the Hero in chapter 5, but those early chapters are also peppered with hints of the greater threat to come.
