Its very real trust me, It was me who posted this video of it:sneth wrote:very cool, but it looks more like an experiment than a project.
Don't worry we will bring you more on this project very soon!T2KFreeker wrote:Hmm, now that caught my attention. I like me some Heretic and it looks pretty good thus far, although it would be nice to see more of the game, especially larger levels where it would "POSSIBLY" make the Jaguar stutter. Not saying it would as DOOM was fantastic on the Jaguar, but I would love to see later stuff in the game just to know. Nice little project though. Glad to see it moving forward. maybe some of you homebrewers would be nice enough to bring your talents to the 3DO as well?
Stormworks is rush6432 (aka Jeff) and Shaun (aka Jag_Slave). I am doing testing on Heretic for themMegaData wrote:I'm confused. Is "Stormworks" more than just Jeff ...and the other names he's used over the years? And when he says "shareware" does he mean "freeware," or does he not know the difference?

Ah well. I'm already an active member at TOO many forums as it is i.e. I spend TOO much time on forums as it isThe Laird wrote:The Jaguar version will be sold "not for profit" at cost price only, to meet the terms of this agreement.

Ouch! Now that HAD to hurt. Total burn man, total burn!

I have no doubt that RVG, is in fact, a cool forum. But the issue for me remains, that I already frequent too many on a daily basis as it is!T2KFreeker wrote:Ninja, RVG isn't a bad little forum if you want to check it out. I love the Ouya section over there, just wish there was more going on for the Ouya at the moment so it was more active. Just saying.
I think after the way they were disgracefully hounded out of AA and Blackout being put on a ROM site within a day of release they were. It was pretty much the good folk at RVG that encouraged them to keep on going, so they did thankfully.NeoGeoNinja wrote: Glad to hear Stormworks Inter are still going. Thought they'd shut up shop for good, but glad they found the strength to keep moving forward, which above all else, is most important, in all paths of life....
You can't see the whole forum anyway until you have 50 posts. As for trusted, that would just be down to the Stormworks guys who they trust. There are an awful lot of bad eggs in the Jaguar community unfortunately.Coffeejits wrote:Please define "trusted/regular" users of rvg.

In this case I totally disagree, RVG is drama free and will stay that way. All the drama is over at AA.sneth wrote:limited release is just going to cause even more drama.
The Jaguar community manufactures issues for itself.
I'm really sorry to hear how limited this is going to be. I agree that AA Jag forum sucks and understand there are a lot of bad eggs over there, I myself have stopped going there for just that reason. But I certainly don't know the RVG or Stormworks guys and am not a member of RVG. I will probably join, but I'm not sure that will matter much since 50 posts are required to get to the whole site (not enough time these days for even more forums) and I doubt just reaching 50 posts and hanging around RVG is what Stormworks has in mind for people they will release the rom too. It's disappointing that all the best Jag stuff ends up getting out to only a few "trusted friends" from so many different "circles" in the Jag community; that's exactly what continues to divide the community and fragment it even more. I'm totally disappointed, and not just because I probably won't fit into your "trusted circle" but for many others who are only Jag fans and want games like this and don't give a damn about the politics and hate and forced fragmenting of groups in the Jag community...if we can even call it a "community," more like just a bunch of different "in-crowd" circles...The Laird wrote:You can't see the whole forum anyway until you have 50 posts.

As I said, I stay away from the politics of it all, so no, I don't know who to point the finger at, for me, it's lots of people to point the finger at, like everyone who does these great projects, shows them on the forums to get us fans all excited, and then say "nah, nah, only our closest buddies get it, nah, nah..."The Laird wrote:I think its a shame too and I think we all know who to point the finger at. Things never used to be this way.
Just a FYI, it's the DOOM engine (later renamed id Tech 1) you are referring to, not a "Heretic" engine. Heretic utilized the DOOM engine, that's all.The Laird wrote:The source code of the Heretic engine was published in 1999 under a license that granted rights to non-commercial use, and was re-released under the GNU General Public License on September 4, 2008. This resulted in ports to Linux, Amiga and other operating systems, and updates to the Heretic engine to utilize 3D acceleration. The shareware version of a console port for the Dreamcast was also released.
