Comments - GTD-Carthage

Hi, I am one of the developers on Obsidian (previously on ObAddon) - the truth is regardless of your express purpose of doing this, we are not really at all that pleased with someone generating a map pack and releasing it like this whole-sale - we don't mind if you use it as base and perform transformative action on it (let's say, altering enough of the map such that it doesn't resemble the original at all) but this looks more like an asset flip if you will. This is still our architectural assets along with the library of textures from different sources and many of which we've authored our own, as well as our code written to build all this from layout, to placement, to gameplay balance. A cursory observation of your project doesn't really show you've changed enough of the content to qualify as transformative.

The thing here also being generated maps are often looked down upon by the community - you already know that though and you've admitted to it yourself, but that doesn't entirely exonerate you from what we think is our content taken wholesale. I'm trying to avoid use of the word 'theft' here just to not get any party upset - at least not as upset as we are on the team.

I'm not going to tell you what to do with the map pack but we just want you to know what we think...

Hello! I would just like to inform that I've began recompiling the music in this mod for a SynthDoom Mark 3 - I went ahead to identify the existing songs with the artist names and music (adding them directly into the LANGUAGE lump), as well as added some that went missing from the first version. (and then began adding some of my own)

Just in case, what I've done is already complete but I wasn't able to identify one last song in the pack - SONG043. I was hoping you perhaps remember what this song particularly was? (I re-verified most of the songs using Musicbrainz Picard and did some manual cross-checking with YouTube but this one came up empty.)

Apologies for, like, two months for a delayed reply but I'm one among the team members for the mod. I only came by to look and happened to notice your comment.

First off, SP2D doesn't overwrite any existing configs other than probably package loading on game start up.

Second, SP2D also uses a lot of default key bindings outside of opening side doors with a special key. SP2D will use whatever default key configs you have but the most important change would be strafe left being run left and strafe right being run right. A mouse is used to aim.

-Lastly, never heard of 2D-Deck16 up until now. :)

No downloads hosted here yet? :( UnrealSP.org seems to be down ATM.

Can't wait. This'll shape UT up and make it look like it was born just yesterday. :P

I think we should update this page now. :P
