Goldeneye: Source -new version out tomorrow

[bledd]

oh damn, sorry for those of you that are dissapointed, downloading now

 

[Scort]

I had a quick blast on it last night, found it very good, seems like they were trying to be very true to the original game and I think they came out trumps so fair play.

I expect it'll have bugs and other issues, as it's a first release, but I think this mod will be good fun in the long run, and at least it lets us re-live the good ol’ days of N64 fun

Scort.

 

[bledd]

just had a play, some servers are really damn laggy!

the PP7 seems to shoot really quickly too..

needs a lot of touching up

 

[Dynix]

Apprantely, the rapid-firing is just a client-side thing and other players will see you shooting "normally"

I'll try and take a few screenshots now and upload them.

can you still hide at spawn points and own everyone who spawns?

Just tried it and answered my own question...

yes you can.

This is very true to the original Goldeneye. I'm loving it.

It still has bugs but it is beta 1 after all.

This is great, mindless killing, love it

What are the 2 bars? The Orange and blue one?

I really like it....although trying to hit someone for a distance is impossible, i find.

and the sniper rifle is actually rubbish which is a shame

Tried using the crosshair? Press Shift and watch where the bullets ago then mouse your mouse slightly

How are you supposed to install this?

How are you supposed to install this?

Firstly you need either HL2/HL2: DM, CS: Source or DOD: Source. You then need to download the Source SDK (free, from Steam).

Then download either the .exe file or the .zip file for GE: Source. The .exe is an installer, so just run it and it'll install. The .zip file needs to be extracted to X:/Program Files/Steam/SteamApps/SourceMods/gesource, or something similar.

Then you need to change the "launch options". Goto "My Games" under Steam, find "Goldeneye: Source Beta 1" and right click it and click "Propteries". Then click "Set launch options..." and add this:
C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 320 -game "C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\gesource

Change whatever is needed to fit how you installed it

Hope that isn't too confusing.

Anyone kind enough for a few screenshots?

How are you supposed to install this?

All I did was install HL2 and CSS from DVD, then after they had updated via Steam, I ran the Goldeneye installer, after restarting Steam I had an icon for Goldeneye in my games - trying to launch it then prompted me to install the SDK which it did by itself.

Easy as

I thought silencers did effect aim?

Why do they get ride of the crosshair when you can stick a bit of blutack at the right point instead?
