Its a shame Daikatana failed so miserably. It really sealed the fate of Ion Storm.

Let's all try to feel like John Romero's bitch while playing

The strange thing is, if the game had come out a couple years earlier without all the hype, it would have fared far better. I think the bitch ad made people particularly vicious towards the game.

Sorry about the bump but for those interested.

and for those that want modern fps controls I recommend adding the following to your config!

Code: Select all

bind "w" "+forward"
bind "s" "+back"
bind "a" "+moveleft"
bind "d" "+moveright"
bind "e" "use"
crosshair "1"
+mlook
_windowed_mouse "1"

Also the map format will work in Quake fine (make sure you add version 30 support in the Quake engine first), the only problem is the textures which will need some looking into...

I feel bad about this game being so awful, because john romero had all the right ideas, but i guess this is what he gets for trying to make a game without design sensibilities of tom hall and the technical sensibilities john carmack.
