#streaming Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) tonight at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. The party goes exploring, then sets forth from Empycchu in search of the godbird Empyrea.

Good testing session. Some funny bugs, some annoying bugs. Made it through id1 and Than's map dmd8 without crashing.

Game is really tough when Ogres fire grenades that deal 100 damage.

I'm testing out my #quake1 mod tonight on #stream at https://twitch.tv/andreaen.

Will do a run through the id1 maps (recompiled with support for brush-based collision) to test out some new movement changes.

Might be a short broadcast.

And now I've added crouchsliding to my Quake movement code.

I've never played any of the id games with crouchsliding so I had to refer to Rapha's Quake Champions movement tutorial to figure out how it works.

It's funky. Hard to use, will take some practice. I have no idea if I implemented it right.

#streaming Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) tonight at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Having returned to Orkutsk from the Herb Grotto the party is now rushing to the aid of the old healer Marta.

I implemented crouching in my Quake mod tonight. Turns out it's pretty easy to do (the code side anyway).

I don't know how to model for Q1 so the change to crouching isn't reflected visually. I wonder if there's a preexisting Q1 ranger crouching model I could use.

#streaming Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) again today over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. The party is searching for the Kran Spinels, jewels which will help protect the magician Dominico from Jessica (who is under the influence of an evil staff).

I'm #streaming the Quake 1 Re:Mobilize Jam map pack right now over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. I've been meaning to play this for months.

Will do a run through id1 afterwards to test a mod I'm working on (time permitting).

#streaming Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) again at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Today the party goes shopping then fights Dhoulmagus.

That Dhoulmagus fight in the Dark Ruins is really, really difficult. It feels suitably big, significant. My third full-party death in the game.

I've got some XP grinding to do.

I'm playing Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) again on #stream today over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. The party has returned from the hunting grounds to find a bazaar underway in Argonia.

Watched the first episode of the new Fallout TV show and it's actually OK. Good even. Fun, kinda goofy. Feels like it will have more substance than just nostalgia and references.

I'm interested to see where it goes.

More Dragon Quest 8 (Playstation 2) today over at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. The party has reached Baccarat in their pursuit of Dhoulmagus.

Been sick a few days so this might be a short session.
