Could this be more fun than a barrel of monkeys? Or even *cough*Enter*cough*TheMat*cough*rix*cough*? images/icons/grin.gif

WOAH!

An update!.. well sort-of.

I can't wait.

[Ken_Y]

haha... I don't know about that Skaven, a barrel of monkeys can be quite fun you know images/icons/wink.gif Anyways, thanks for looking out, I'll update everyone in a while!

[Joonas]

You... you... POSTED?

YES! images/icons/grin.gif

... kidding...

*is happy*

[Maddieman]

Can't wait to see what you've done with this mod. images/icons/smile.gif

[Kev_Hectic]

Nice, can't wait till it's done. It might even have some competition with the Katana mod images/icons/grin.gif

[Jade]

Good, that's one of my fav mods images/icons/smile.gif

Oh and I await news of KF3 as much as the monkeys here await some banana's.

It might even have some competition with the Katana mod <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Unlikely - not for a long while, at least. images/icons/blush.gif

Katana just isn't finished yet.

Although, that said, I found it quite funny to read some of the features, and noting the similarities in the implementation.

What intrigues me is this whole running/standing attacks thing - I don't know if that was clever wording, but I'm really curious to find out how it works.

Needless to say, I think we're all going to find out soon enough.

[biXen]

That looks REALLY good. If I'm gonna nitpick, it's that interpolation between animations looks a bit weird in the second to last video, hope you can fix that Ken. The furniture breaking was pretty cool too, is that dynamic?

[Fraeon Waser Duhni]

I wonder how many "infinite bullet-time" tweaks we'll be getting based around this one...

As for that furniture, I'm interested too about that question.

[Devil Master]

Will it include new levels AND A PLOT? Because if it doesn't, there's no way I'll download it.

The furniture breaking was pretty cool too, is that dynamic?<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Looks like a cool, "simple but effective" solution. I suspect that when a character is kicked and starts its "knocked backwards" animation, it sends a special projectile that flies at the same velocity as the character. When the character hits something (another character, furniture), the projectile hits the target as well, and causes a "tumble damage" effect, whose results vary on the target: furniture smashes, characters tumble and solid materials poof clouds of dust.

Am I right Ken Y? images/icons/smile.gif

[Ken_Y]

Skaven, have you been hacking into my computer again or something?? images/icons/wink.gif But yup, that pretty much describes EXACTLY how I went about it. No fair, nothing we can do will ever be able to surprise you Remedy guys, damnit! must... code... harder... arrghh!

[Maddieman]

Rest easy Ken, they've not yet figured out my headshot trick. images/icons/wink.gif

I believe it's "Put Your Body In Motion - Dirty Vegas".

[Froz]

Looks very, very good. Can't wait to play this thing, but TRW (http://realworld.maxpayneheadquarters.com) will kick more ass images/icons/tongue.gif

[Joker]

Ugh, I knew there was a reason I stopped trying to answer these questions... graemlins/doh.gif

Odd, though... I found it just as easily under the title and artist I posted... images/icons/confused.gif

[Maddieman]

Whatever it's called, it's been stuck in my head for the past 4 or 5 months. graemlins/doh.gif

[Jade]

I don't know if this's the right place to ask...but, what's the title of the song in the Kung fu 3.0 trailer? I like it images/icons/smile.gif I heard it sometime at the radio but I never known what's the artist. images/icons/rolleyes.gif

[ADM]

I tried looking for the vid that shows the furniture breaking but can't find it?

What's the link?

[Maddieman]

http://kungfu.maxpayneheadquarters.com/videos/tumble.asf

Watch the objects in the background.

[ADM]

Thanks Mad.

Just watched the vid then.. pretty impressive Ken.

[Maddieman]

Ok,...someone please confirm this for me. In the excitement, did I miss this detail, or is the skill points system (explained in the techniques page) new since the last update?

[Mongorian]

HOLY SHITSTAINS BATMAN!
the skill point system alone makes it worth playing.

Ken, you are a golden god.

Remeber me, I was the crazy guy at mphq who kept on asking you to help me with my mod...
EDIT: "skill levels?!" he said with infinite shock images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/shocked.gif

EDIT 3:Wait, technically, max payne already had aerial shootdodging, he was air born, if you think about it...
EDIT 4: COMBOS?! NOw that makes my day!
EDIT 5: Uhhh, shouldn't this be in the modding section?

[Maddieman]

Omario, do I need to post that "Hello and welcome to last week" image again? images/icons/smile.gif

EDIT 5: Uhhh, shouldn't this be in the modding section? <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">No, because we're talking about the general features. The majority of non-modders avoid the modding section like the plague and miss things like this. There's another thread in there for discussing the technicalities as and when we figure them out.

[Medic]

I just read this post for the first time and....


OMG! This is the first time I've seen Ken in any forum for a long long time. Last seen by me on MPHQ in fall 2002...

images/icons/shocked.gif

[Maddieman]

Flying Take-Down:
...Max will raise his right foot up and, if he is close enough to the enemy, will run up the enemy's body and deliver a swift and deadly mid-air combo.... <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I sure hope it's different to what I had planned for 'the real world'.

Lobby kick (http://hellskitchen.paynereactor.com/images/news/kick.jpg)

[biXen]

That looks really cool Maddie, but that's probably a very similar thing, quite well known that kick images/icons/smile.gif

[Maddieman]

Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm kinda hoping that his move is more original, and not a direct rip from the film -- like my one is. graemlins/hhg.gif

[Ken_Y]

Don't worry Maddie, what I'm working on is not quite the same as your famous lobby kick. But my advice, get your lobby kick move released before a certain "other" (http://www.maxpayneheadquarters.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=303&sid=fdc0db2ead5192c725167925fbeaf899) game is released, that way you can claim it as your own first images/icons/wink.gif Because one thing that I've begun to notice lately (after Kung Fu 2.0 at least) is that lots and lots of other 3rd person games (Jedi Knight 2, Devil May Cry 2, Ninja Gaiden, Enter the Matrix, etc...) just "happen" to have wall running too. We gotta keep ahead of the competition my friend!

[Mayur]

*clap clap clap clap clap clap*

*Whistle Whistle Whistle Whistle *

*wooooooooottttt*

Yo Ken, this be the first time I am readin' a post of yours, glad to see you are back, you don't know me since I am new to the community but I have kept track of these forums for weeks,man kung fu 2 rockz, can't wait for kung fu 3

|Mayur|

[Medic]

I don't think he knows me either and I have been posting at MPHQ for a year and a half. images/icons/grin.gif

The reason I joined there was Kung fu, so go figure...

[Maddieman]

I think the Matrix, Max Payne, and kung fu edition coupled with the fact that they were all released within a relatively short time of each other had a pretty significant impact on the game industry (although they'd probably not like to admit it).

The fps genre is experiencing a pretty dry spell at the moment, and if I'm not mistaken, we can expect a lot of 3rd person action games to appear in the next few years. Furthermore, with not one but two matrix films being released this year, we can probably expect trends like bullet-time, kung fu, and wallrunning to continue.

As far as the lobby kick is concerned, that's somewhat of a relief. Judging from those gameplay videos, it doesn't look like 'enter the matrix' is using it either, contrary to what I had previously assumed from this screenshot. (http://www.enterthematrixgame.com/img/screenshots4.jpg) Even so, I doubt I can claim copyright on it. images/icons/wink.gif
In fact, it would probably be better if 'the real world' kept a fairly low profile outside the community.

I'm going to let rip with Katana 2, however. Right after Postal 2 decimates the videogame industry?s fragile credibility. graemlins/hhg.gif

Nowadays the mod you make must either REALLY kick ass, shock or disgust people, or it must be released close to Max Payne 2, so newssites can go "new screenshots for Max Payne 2, and it seems mods for the first one is looking good, linktositehere" images/icons/smile.gif

[Maddieman]

Nah..just stick the word 'matrix' in your mod title and you have an instant success. images/icons/wink.gif
