Public Commander Keen Forum

Lately (over the past month or so) it seems like the PCKF and Keen:Modding have been more down than up. Any attempt to load pages, about 25-30% of the time, will yield a MySQL error. This happens very frequently, for several days at a time usually. So, adurdin, or whoever's responsible for maintenan...

No way! Keen 6 is the best. But if you look outside the realm of original games, I'd say Atroxian Realm is a good contender for "best". But then of course you have uTUIT and BotB...

I certainly do! Picked up this Pentium MMX laptop (166MHz! blazing fast!) on eBay for twenty bucks. A pretty good deal if I do say so. It plays Keen very well (all the mods too), at the correct aspect ratio too. It does have a "screen expander" feature, but then the aspect ratio is incorre...

Hi Mobiethian -
I'm trying to get a source mod project started (as you probably saw from my other thread) and I wonder if you could help me with some graphics. I know you're bogged down with other stuff, so if you decide to help me just whenever you have the time Thanks!

I like this more the more I use it. Made a small level in less than five minutes, with minimal effort- yes! Just the right tool for lazy people like me. :p This really needs to be brought past the "demo" stage - like, tomorrow :begging I love it. Please add menus! I want to make levels wit...

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESS!!!!!
MWA HA HA HA HA HAAA!
FEEEEEEL THE POWER!

As you can tell, I'm excited.

This is great! We really are entering a new era in Keen modding / fangames.
Should this be concatenated into Abiathar?

I wrote imfplay, so you could say that, yeah :] Aha... Aha! D'uh! (smacks forehead). Of course! And then you're also the guy whom I left a YouTube comment asking for the imfplay source 8) Yea! This is going great. That code looks pretty easy to patch into my program, but if I converted that for-nex...

Yeah, both PCKF and Keen:Modding were down for a few days. That has been happening a lot recently, but all the same it seems like things have been kind of slow... oh well. If I get my new source mod project off the ground maybe it'll pick up.

No kidding, and there hasn't been a post at Keen:Modding for at least a week. Please, don't let this forum die! We need more Keening.

nice work! Thanks! :D That's actually really easy, heh That is the impression I got after reading up on the IMF and DRO formats on the wiki. Here's the ideal thing: a QB45 DRO player, supporting OPL3 and easily concatenated into this program. I intend to write one, but I need all the help and advic...

Interesting idea. It is possible to make it run in DOS using the HX extender, but that's still 32-bit... (yes, I have done it before.) gerstrong, is the CG code as optimized for slow systems as the original Keen code? i.e., does it use adaptive tile refresh? Because if it isn't then this idea is dea...

The vgagraph work is in progress, still working on the scrolling routines. :drool Woooo! I'm so excited to hear that. Hope it gets done soon. How do I get involved and help? I would so like to help as much as I am able with that and the other features I mentioned. The enemies don't necessarily have...

With the release of the Keen Source Mod by lemm et al, it seems anything is possible. From my perspective, how it this different from the Galaxy source code release holy grail that we've all been waiting for all these years? For all intents and purposes, isn't it just like having those coveted "...
