I know the reasons why they where dropped (and i'm sure this has been asked in 3DR forums before), but does Joe still have those sprites laying around somewhere? I know Dopefish has frequented that board before so maybe you can explain a few things to this "late-to-the-party" guy  |

I know that if nothing else he still has the video tapes containing all the recording of the actors. He's been asked to share it but he showed reluctance as he would have to go through hours of tapes and convert them and he feels that ultimately the tapes are so boring it's not worth the hassle...
It's a shame they didn't decide to mix up the sexes a little. In relation to the other thread it would've help make the npc's more identifiable if different ranks had been different sexes. I don't know why they didn't do that rather than just scrapping all the female npc's... |

It really is a shame, it would have certainly stood out more if it did have female characters that were not just strippers (Duke 3D anyone?)
But here's something I ask. Has Joe ever said that the sprites do not exist anymore? And another thing. Could the sprites be recreated with the video footage? I remember reading where he said that while the videos where interesting, but in the end they where quite boring. |

This.
It has been asked a few times to release additional content, but overall... What we have right now is probably the most that we are going to get... We got a lot of the assets in the Goodies pack, there was the source code, lots of professional levels... I doubt that anything that Joe could have released isn't already. After all, he had fond memories of working on it.

From reading his posts over at 3DR as I ran through them for ROTT content awhile back, I can certainly tell he did enjoy his time with this project. Its true, if there was any chance of these still existing in some form, he would have handed it over years ago.
Wasn't going to bother him about it anyway, wouldn't want to bother him about something like that. Just have to thank Joe for all he's released to the community |
