Descent Test

Open DoobesURU opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

It begins!

This will be the official branch for my Descent restoration project.

A few things to remember:

  • Aside from the FNI file, these files will probably change as we go along, so best to redownload them all from the Plasma and moul-assets repos.
  • To keep things separate for now, this PR contains a "new" Age named "DescentMystV" as it started as a base conversion of Myst V's Descent. When it's ready to replace the old Descent (ie Phase 5), then the Age files will be changed to match and the DescentMystV Age will be removed.
  • To stay aligned with the current version of Descent, a TreasureBookPage PRP was created and contains the old collectables such as Yeesha Page, calendar spark, etc. The page number for this matches the old one (15) and does not overlap any of the other pages.
  • Note that things are still a work-in-progress, especially any additions not seen in Myst V, so bear this in mind.

Things to try:

  • Ladder in caldera into the caves.
  • First node door
  • Yeesha page (enter age.setsdlbool dsntYeeshaPageMusicPlayerVis true 0 into the console)
  • Calendar Spark 5 ( enter age.setsdlbool dsntCalendarSpark05 true 0 into the console). Note that this won't make your KI flash if you've already gotten the spark from the original Descent.
  • KI Light machine (enter age.setsdlint dsntKILightFunc 2 0 into the console). While the "sputtering" version of the machine can be turned on using 1 0 instead of 2 0, the sparks do not appear due to lack of particle effects in Korman. The KI Light itself will still function as expected for both.
  • Dr. Watson's journal

Note that these being wired already doesn't really conform to my own Phase system...I just couldn't help myself. 😜

I have set up a Google document to catalog any bug reports into one central location. Feel free to add to it if you find something off as we go: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QW5bTXHBP0LgOecxvq7yNnAn2N71XxcgA_YxiBokgo4/edit?usp=sharing

Any and all suggestions are most welcome as this is a community effort. For now, enjoy!
