Re: Shades of Doom Version 2.0 Public Beta Released
Hi,
Here's my personal opinion:
- Changes have been made so that sounds again represent the direction of the monster or object. After Windows Vista was introduced, sounds did not well reflect the actual position of the monsters and objects. The sounds seemed to center when the monster or object was close to the player character.
It is indeed better now, however it is not 3d sound as it was when using XP.
- You may now use the mouse to play Shades of Doom.
This is very nice, I've been wanting to do this natively.
- Most of the sounds have been improved.
Most of them come from Locutus's SOD 1.2 mod.
- The EVA has a new voice.< /p>
AT&T Crystal, if I'm right. I personally think that the old EVA was much, much better.
- Cheat codes are included at no charge.
- There was a major reworking of the engine.
- Many small bugs have been fixed.
These are always nice to see.
While I appreciate the work put towards a new version, I personally feel that general maintenance and minor improvements do not justify a $10 price tag.
Rob
