Public Commander Keen Forum

Hello there! I'm quite new to the forums myself, but definitely not to Keen. As MoffD said, the place can be slow sometimes, though this week has been just about the busiest I've ever seen it. I like your vortikid character. Sounds like really good fanfiction material. I don't think there's been man...

What games usually work on your computer? Hmm, let's see. Not a lot of newer 3D games, I don't think. A fair amount of the games I have are open-source, like SuperTuxKart and Neverball. Those work. Also the Keen 64 Pogo Demo, and Beta 0.1.5 I believe it was, worked. I'm using Windows 7. I have only...

I could move around and control the camera, and in fact everything besides the textures seemed so normal I started to wonder if it really was a glitch or just a very limited demo. No, I wasn't falling. The platforms are there, they're just invisible. Walking around a bit I sometimes run into a wall,...

I'm not sure if my computer just doesn't like Unity but... http://i68.tinypic.com/4ut3ia.png There's supposed to be more than just floating lollipops, right? I'm using the Windows build on a 32-bit machine. It seems mostly normal, it's not giving me any error messages or anything. The textures just ...

Yay this is still being worked on! I first played the beta demos a couple years ago, and it was amazing! Especially considering it was just a beta. Everything was 3Dified really well. The physics were a bit weird but I suppose that's a side effect of being a beta. I really, really hope this will be ...

I could've sworn the rules in the first post said "limit one level per person." Maybe you accidentally edited it out, KeenRush?

Lookin' good, Grimson. :) You guys should just do an outright Keen 4 themed mod... :mort I very much second this. http://fc55.deviantart.com/fs34/f/2008/306/8/3/Keen_Seconded_by_VikingBoyBilly.png Edit: I was just looking in the .zip with the graphics so far, and it looks like the Poison Slug is unf...

This one took a little imagination: http://i67.tinypic.com/i69gft.png I can only imagine how sneaky the Mimrocks will be in 3D. :evil So now that's 5.1 out of a total of 16 Keen4 creatures done. Any update on whether you'll be needing the underwater ones? Also, do you have any priority of which crea...

*Checks stopwatch* 2 months and 4 weeks since the last new Miscellaneous topic. :slug On topic, that is such a sweet find. It works that well and someone just left it at a recycling center? There is definitely truth to the saying "one man's trash is another man's treasure." Good thing you ...

I've sent a level. Did you receive it, KeenRush? I'm all for pushing the deadline back. With the level design rules being so simplistic, building a level is easy and quicker than it usually is, so people who usually don't have time for that may be able to (basically, what Benvolio said on the first ...

Thanks for the tip NY! That explains it. I was a bit confused when I found the typo because I was sure it worked when I tested it.
Good to know. That makes everything a lot simpler. (And the .zip file size is now less than a third of what it was.)

Download link has been updated.

Hey, thanks everyone! @CommanderSpleen Cool, thanks for putting that up. This em-dosbox thing really sounds like the latest thing for mods. I guess I ought to get around to actually checking it out now. :o Heh, sorry about the difficulty of the slugs. We were trying to invent a patch to make the sli...

Enjoy.

Edit: small update with some minor fixes

The front- and back-facing angles look a little flat to me, but I'm not sure how to fix it. Shading? In the default EGA the Inchworm doesn't use shading so using it on only some frames looks a bit odd. However, I tried an experiment using the doom palette to add some subtler shading: http://i67.tin...

I like how this uses the same colours for the introductory "Commander Keen" letters as Exile of the Krile. Usually it seems people like to use unique colours for each mod (which have probably all been used at least once by now) but I feel like it really denotes how this is a series. It jus...
