THX JOE and TOX!!!
THX JOE and TOX!!!
toxic-nova said:many thanks that I could "test" (but it's playing not just testing ) v.0.99
things I love:
-well fitting music for a western game
-nice and well fitting pictures on menu screens
-factions that let me play many aspects I love in western movie
-a huge map with space that gives me the feeling of traveling through the wilderness
-beautiful map icons especially the ones for the towns -> Screenshot 1, 2
-beautiful town scenes
-many beautiful villages scenes with nice little details to discover (it worth to go in every little village)
-showdown scenes that looks like fighting in cities or harbors
-nice battle scenes
-some village elders and other NPCs have interesting names...everyone should discover if he know the names
-female troops. represents that womans hadn't just cooked while their families were attacked by Indians
-animals to hunt
-Indian sounds that let me sound like an Indian -> Video
-huge amount of items that let me choose many different fashion styles
-Ale, Rum, Whiskey as items to please my army
-different weapons feels different...not just many pistols that differs in appearance
-cannons and Gatling guns (just as long I restrict myself to a "realistic" behavior or it will turn into real cheating)
-ducking animation
-line battles with fire commands and rows
things that are wrong:
-traveling near map borders like near Mexico City or Denver is strange because I can't focus the screen on my party. Maybe a map with more empty space at the borders can fix this
-no Canada (itself Canada wasn't a real war party in the time it's strange to play in North America without it. the idea to implement it with sth. like free towns would be a nice solution if you won't have it as faction ingame...as long this is possible)
-horses should be deactivated in sea battles (like in siege scenes)
-one music is of low quality. But the music itself fit well like the others (c2.ogg)
-I miss the old style of some clothes like the "2 Remingtons Outfit" or the "CW Custer Outfit" with it's holster in front where it was possible to put pistols in. post with better explanation
things bugged or not clear:
-while ducking pistols didn't work correctly
-"lords" banners are a bit glitchy like here -> Screenshot
-a little texture bug in Leon -> Screenshot
-I got error message while traveling on map (appears after a week or two)
SCRIPT ERROR ON OPCODE 1669: Invalid Party ID: 231; LINE NO: 8:
At Simple trigger no: 99.
At Simple trigger no: 99.
-another error on map: -> Screenshot
-I got CTD in KANSAS CITY scene at night and only with Particle Systems on. I ride from spawn position directly over the town square in direction to the sheriff (Village Mayor). It looks like it is caused by a change of v.0.99 because I couldn't reproduce it in version v.0.98. In common cases I hadn't get such issues but it would be nice if someone can confirm this problem to make sure it isn't a problem of my PC.
Captured Joe said:I am very impressed with the new version! Most of the issues with the other versions are removed, and I found some great new music pieces and items in the mod!
<THINGS U LOVED
<THINGS WRONG-The new weapons, sounds, music and clothes; Especiall the weapons, and the boots, hats and Uniforms!
-The map with the new settlements
-The NPCs and Companions
-The Indians!
-The way the Guns fit in the Holsters on the clothes
-The new animations!
-The siege scene (I fought in Frederciksburg both on the defence and the attack, and I liked it!)
-The factions
-^ I really like the American Settlers faction; The mix of Regulars and Mountain Men/Frontiersmen is great!
-The looks and outfits of some of the new Ladies; I saw some French Ladies (why does that reminds me of Titanic?) with indian clothes and feathers in their hairs. Looks good. Also, apparently NONE of the ladies are bugged!
-I found the Sawned Off Winchester in the mod, my favorite weapon of 1866! (Although the name of it is a bit weird.)
-The Crouching option (and the AI using it)! It adds a lot to an Infantry-based character and his foot soldiers!
-The amazing scene props!
<THINGS BUGGED OR NOT CLEAR-The items for the player in the multiplayer battles are messed up. The weapon options and horse options are allright, no need to change that. But the clothing options for the player are wrong in most of the cases. Equipment for AI bots is perfect, though.
-One of the "Fenian Uniforms" is still grey and textureless
-"Fur Hat Feathers" is invisible
-On travelling on the world map:
Code:SCRIPT ERROR ON OPCODE 2281: Invalid Party ID: 681; LINE NO: 124: At script: spawn_bandits. At script: spawn_bandits.
