The Cursed 0.131 - public beta
The Cursed (v0.131)
Get the game here (no installer yet): http://spring.jobjol.nl/show_file.php?id=2140
Changelog: https://svn.bountysource.com/cursed/tru ... ngelog.txt
The game is about bones, undead, demons and magic settled in a futuristic environment. The whole ting was inspired by styles/arts from Doom I and II, Warcraft III, Warhammer table tops. I hope I could create an enjoyable cocktail for Spring out of it.
The Second race will look like this:
For information about the gameplay take a look at: http://azaremoth.supremedesign.org and have a look at the buildtree:
Take a look and give us feed about the balance, gameplay (keep in mind - it is not the same as BA and that is intended), bugs and odd grafics or whatever other constructive criticism you have!
What is not done yet:
- a smo(o)th balance
- a polished UI
- tons of new features like even more spells, ...
- the second race
- ...
Copyright and legal stuff:
Feel free to use any scripts and sounds from this game - they are open-source. As far as models (geometry), textures and other graphics are concerned, I DO NOT want them to be used in other mods or games without my permission.
The team:
aZaremoth: wouldn't have thought that - huh?!
CarRepairer: LUA-wizard, he makes all the nifty game features possible
Corleone: webmaster and coding for the webpage
Maneater: gameplay and lots of alpha and beta-testing
Special thanks to:
- Argh for many script pieces from Nanoblobs and P.U.R.E.
- The Complete Annihilation devs and many other lua coders for their wonderful lua scripts, lups, and many more
- the http://www.freesound.org community for many sounds
- the Spring devs - great engine

Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
Can you also upload to jobjol or some other place? I have issues with your link, the downloading keeps aborting every couple megabytes.
Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
AWESOME!
What license is it under?
pd, cc, gpl, etc
don't know if you saw it, but I did a light review of your race for ta:k some time ago it was my top pick. <3 man.

Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
impressive
I take it then PURE compatibility is dropped and this is a game in its own right? it'd have been interesting to see the two games overlapping a little

Please up it to JJ, I get the same problem as zw. Looks very very nice though!

Huh, even at a high download speed it still dropped halfway through the file and needed to resume.

Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
locks up when started through spring.exe on commanders script here
edit: actually, i think it's ati again :/ now it crashed with ati dlls in the stacktrace.
edit2: works in master, but that uses different spring settings, so keep that in mind when somebody asks about it.

Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
I used lurkers link and it worked (also, using commands 1000 res does not lock up).
It has definitely some great potential, but some things I noticed:
It has definitely some great potential, but some things I noticed:
- Units have about the same size as buildings, not a big thing, but looks a bit weird
- the stuff that covers the ground around the obelisk also covers the metal view. its hard to spot metal patches beneath it
- your sound clips are all stereo, which makes positional audio impossible. While this is ok for unitreplies, it sucks for weapon effects
- you have some big wav-files (up to 1mb), you should reencode the biggest into ogg/vorbis to save some download size
Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
It always does - you need to choose the "Commanders 1000 res script" - this one works. As multiplayer works I never bothered about this bug.imbaczek wrote:locks up when started through spring.exe on commanders script here
Direct uploads to jobjol always cause my router to hang up. I'll try to load it from where is right now to jobjol. We shall see in a few minutes.zwzsg wrote:Can you also upload to jobjol or some other place? I have issues with your link, the downloading keeps aborting every couple megabytes.
There is not much of the PURE compatibility left - all the stats are changed, ... it is a game on its own. NO PURE needed and there will be no overlaps. At least I hope I have replaced everything that was not GPL...AF wrote:I take it then PURE compatibility is dropped and this is a game in its own right? it'd have been interesting to see the two games overlapping a little
Cool thing - I feel honored - I never saw that. I wasn't active at tauniverse.com. I thought noone was interested in the (old) cursed after 2004. Look - the skeleron guys stole my Mana pools and the bone wall... Well - never mind. You are missing Illohir there btw. - the demon race. It was a little imba but still fun.smoth wrote:AWESOME!

About the license - I need to pick a good fitting one. I see the game as an aggregate of different things:
- scripts (cob, lua) and definitions (all .tdf, fbi,...): these files are GPL (as the have to be for spring )
- sounds: all used sounds are GPL
- models, textures and other grafic-files: I do not want them to be used in other games or mods or see them altered unless I give "special" admission.

Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
Looks exceptionnaly good, for a Spring mod.
But most special abilities didn't work for me: Building an heart of darkness did nothing, I still have no idea on how to morph-upgrade my units. There were no buttons to burrows. Building walls makes a bit of smoke during the building, but then there is no walls, neither visible nor blocking.

Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
quick update - edited the previous post; it works and looks mighty cool! great job.
the obelisk selection sound is highly irritating after you hear it the third time, so might want to make it shorter or something.
skeletons' burrow skill needs a keyboard shortcut. b or u would do.

Ok - i'll change the effect sounds to mono channel. I have noted the grounddecal thing also - making the grounddecals semi-opaque causes them to look strange when overlapping. Maybe something can be done about that with lua. The unit sizes are intended - this keeps the units visible zoomed out. Maybe I'll scale the buildings up sometime...Auswaschbar wrote: * Units have about the same size as buildings, not a big thing, but looks a bit weird

Re: The Cursed 0.1 - first public beta release
obelisks can assist factories (at least the demon one) - not directly, but by repairing nanoframes. might want to disallow that.
edit: scratch that, got confused by the cursors, they can assist normally just fine.

I played against Mazure, went fine (but game limited to tech 1)
I played against TheMightyCow, and there were desyncs.
