Nuclear Winter HRP

[Hendricks266]

Yes, JPG will work. Email them to me at Hendricks266 [at] gmail [dot] com.

I get a problem with this HRP frozen addon : my video screen is blocking at the very beggining of the introduction scene "Everyone loves Christmas..." even if I can ear sounds, untill EDuke32 crashes too. Seems that I'm so unlucky with these 3 HRP addons.

Could godfather, alien queen or someone else help me ?

[Hendricks266]

@ Mortal Shang:
Try running the game in 8-bit. Then try running the game in 32-bit with filtering at nearest, textures off, and models off.

[Hendricks266]

I extracted all of the frames from the cutscenes, removed redundant ones, and converted them to PNG so that artists could remake them easier.

NWHRP Cutscenes.7z

[Mortal Shang]

Thanks Hendricks266, I'll check it this evening.

Edit : unfortunately it crashes again, Santa sux with my PC.

[Mateos]

Do you have a good PC ?

[Hendricks266]

Give us all your specs.

[The Commander]

It would be more helpfull if you could upload the "eduke32.log" that should hopefully be created if the chrash isn't a serious one.

[Hendricks266]

New to-do list. The file size upload is maxed out at 19.5 KB!

NWinter_HRP_To_Do.txt

Again, have a look at the sounds.

See here for the new readme section. There is a small addition for NW.

Right now, I would like the only remaining skybox to be completed, so a category is squared 
away.  You should use highres/skyboxes/0079_cloudyskies/ as a source.

[Mortal Shang]

Ok men here is my EDuke32.log for my NWinter_hrp crashes.

[Hendricks266]

Install this.

If that doesn't work, remove eduke32_mus.zip and Music_pack.zip from autoload.

Also, you are missing duke3d_hrp.def. Extract this to your EDuke32 directory.

duke3d_hrp.def.zip

[Mateos]

To close the problem, MortalShang plz read the documentation about the files you dl on the net : it was written that eduke32_mus.zip NEED OpenAL.

[Mortal Shang]

Many thanks men, but I thought I had already OpenAL installed.
NWinter HRP crashes even if I delete EDuke32_mus.zip.
I've got the duke3d_hrp.def files but in my duke3d_hrp.zip and hrp_update.zip packs.

I've tried all what you say, the video bug is still there so I give up.

[Hendricks266]

Download the newest snapshot. Extract it to a clean folder. Copy only NWinter.grp, duke3d.grp, and duke.rts to the clean folder. Then download the attachment, unzip it to there, and run the batch file. Select 8-bit mode. If that works, run it in 32-bit. There will be no highres tiles.

Report back and we'll take it from there.

[Mortal Shang]

Oh yes this Nuclear Winter demo works perfect.

[Hendricks266]

All right, now install just the NWHRP, not normal HRP.

[Mateos]

I helped him yesterday. He set nwinter_hrp.zip in autoload folder, with others addons HRPs. And he had an 2007 version, of EDuke32. I don't know if ti work now, cause he didn't speak on msn after last trying

[Mortal Shang]

Yep everything is ok, great help thanks to Mateos.

Now I have to kick ass to these 3 addons, and I will update my Duke Nukem webpage !!

[Hendricks266]

Great to hear it!

Wait off on NW and Caribbrean a little while, until the new versions are released.

In the meantime, play DukeDC.

[Hendricks266]

Most of the enemies and characters in NW have been edited with simple adornments. Would any prop modelers please make the following: santa hat, pair of antlers, boob ties, and chains?

[Hendricks266]

I plan to release a new version on, of course, Christmas Day.

[Mortal Shang]

Great news, I'm waiting for this frozen update.

[Hendricks266]

Does anyone have the fonts “British Inserat MN Condensed” or “Compacta SH-Regular”, or some variant? These are needed because they are what was used for the NW logo that replaces the Atomic symbol.

[chicken]

Check these out.
I'll also send you a mail with the font

[Mateos]

I know. That's where I found them, with their WhatTheFont?! tool. But I'm not paying ~$45 for a font. Besides, chicken had a font that looked exactly like these two, which already look exactly the same.

[chicken]

Aw man, i've just seen that 3669 has been done already...
But anyway, here it is. Might be useful for something.

[Hendricks266]

You mean the snow... Well, it's good you did, because it kicks the crap out of the one I already had.

[Hendricks266]

Santamatch Progress:
I palettized the mighty foot in TILES009.ART pal 10 and stuck it back in. That's the first new 8-bit artwork to complete the incompletion!
I also added highres skin edits for Santa's mighty foot and leg jib.



Santa kicks ass.

[stumppy84]

Fricken awsome can't wait till it's done!!

[supergoofy]

My post with the link was deleted?

I thought that it was already release on Dec 21, 2008. But it seems the announce is not official. Maybe there are some bugs, or it needs testing before the link goes public?


Anyway I wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2009.

Nuclear Winter HRP v3.5

I'm very sorry for being a day late, but the relatives would not get off the computer yesterday.

It looks like, even though it was leaked early, NWHRP v3.5 was unplayable. This was due to an accidental error in the batch file, when I tried to increase Linux compatibility.
---
For Christmas, I got a graphics card for my computer. Before was using integrated graphics and got ~15 fps. Now I get ~200 fps. In addition EDuke32 in Polymost mode would crash if exerted too much. Because of this, I compiled these versions mostly blind to fix bugs. I'm going to be playing through the HRPs to test, so I would appreciate it if my loyal followers would do the same.

[Mateos]

The Batch says that I don't have EDuke32 installed, I have updated it to 27 December, always same prob. Why it says that ?

How can I let too a Vacation.con for multiplaying without make VacaHRP errored ?

Thanks for help.

[themaniacboy]

well the batch that game with the leaked version just worked fine for me, anyways nice release, i really enjoyed it playing it on christmas

[Hendricks266]

Mateos:
Are you using Windows?
I don't understand the second thing you said.

themaniacboy:
Thanks.

[Mateos]

Delete Me.

I'm really stupid. Thanks.

[Hendricks266]

Since the digital font in the HRP has been changed, and the snowy digital font was based on the old one, it has been removed. If sb742 or anyone else would like to redo it based on the new ones, I would be happy to add it in.

[FlackenWS]

I have pig cop skin in all palettes in this link:

But, if you are interested in red skin, look below.

Normally, it is 512x512.
