Title: Fallout 3 for Amiga
Post by: cicero790 on September 16, 2011, 04:12:03 PM
Fallout 3 for Amiga.

Description:

After a long wait, its finally and probably most surprisingly here. Fallout 3 for Amiga.

Fallout 3 is a gigantic game, so in order to make this a superior Amiga version, it had to be gigantically small. Also, one unnecessary dimension was removed, since you only get lost in a 3d world anyway (I do).

You know (if you do) that super-mutants stalks the wastelands. You may even have encounter the behemoth super-mutants and lived to tell the tale, but you probably have been spared from the even more vile and vicious “mini” super-mutants. These creatures are quite smaller than their brethren, but rest assure, these are soulless monster basterds that will kill anything upon sight. Shot or stomp them to their well deserved death, before they feast upon your flesh.

The soundtrack is (some what) recreated for your pleasure.
I should say, -”have fun”, but dare only to whisper a shivering“good luck”, you're gonna need it.
Prepare to enter the unforgiving wastelands of Amiga Fallout 3.
We all bet'n on ya. Ect. ect. ect...

Download the lha, unpack and run (like h#ll),
and don't forget to run the ingame intro first so you know why.



DLC's may come in the future.

System minimum requirements:

Amiga with a 030 accelerator or better.
Or run it in WinUAE, UAE.

Menu and game controlled by joystick.

1.8mb in size.

Thanks.  I've downloaded it and I'll give it a go on my A4000 040 this weekend.  :)

Nice game, reminds me the old-school game contest.
AMOS can do miracles, you may polish the stages (maps) a bit and use AMAL for the animation/scrolling, after all you've already completed the main game engine.

@Darrin
Thanks Darrin. I had a very good time making it and learning at the same time.

@Cass
Thanks. I have to look into AMOS. Never did back in the days. This is made with Alistair Murray's great Backbone. Hope he picks it up and continue developing it, if only as a hobby. It would be so appreciated.  A small alteration and I could use it to do an ami Portal. Teleportation is already in there. If it were possible to place the teleportation blocks ingame with the click of a the left and right mouse button. It would be possible to pull it of. Thanks again for taking it for a spin.

Always good to see people still coding for the Amiga.  I'll give it a try when I have some free time.

I hope you continue to do more Amiga coding in the future.

Nice work, man! I just played through and finished, and I'm looking forward to more! I'm happy to see other people using Backbone, I have made a few incomplete games with it myself but I still want to get back and finish a couple when I have the time.

Cool idea basing it on Fallout, kind of like a Retro De-Make or whatever they call them. I'd like to see more new games being made into Amiga games like this, it reminds me of the Gameboy Advance or DS versions of the big console games they always bring out.

Hi,

I downloaded and unpacked it, the intro is great, and when I hit the space bar, I go into a screen that has Energy = 30, lives = 3, Score = 0, CTRT+C end on it, what do I do from here, it plays a pretty cool sound but it just seems to loop.

I am totally confused.

OK, just tried and get an error not finding lowlevel.library, which I think (??) is a 3.1 file...

So, 3.1 is a requirement?

Hi,

Tried it on A4000 with 68040 wouldn't run, then fired up Cloanto's Amiga Forever, ran pretty good on there, since I am a Fallout 3 game player, I sort of think that it is pretty cool having it on the Amiga. NICE WORK.

Thanks
smerf

I am growing nice in my old age,usually would of ripped this game apart, for being a lousy reproduction of a good PC game.

Anyhow it is nice to see some games coming out for the Amiga again.

Thanks again

@Runequster
Thanks. Posted a screenshot. Hope you make it through.

@amigadave
I'm trying to learn. Some how it's more fun on a classic. On a PC the motivation is somewhat lowered by the daunting task of even remotely trying to match games that a small town of people have put together. Or finding out that there are 10.000 free versions of a program you trying desperately to make. Thanks.

@Rebel-CD32
Thanks. This was the first. Have to get my breath. But I will soon see things that needs improvement so the development will probably continue, because it was so d#rn fun. So many things come together here. You have to exercise both graphic and music progs. Hope Alistari continues with development.

@smerf
Smerf aswer1: But smerf.....

@Desiv
Alistair you are needed here. I don’t know. I use 3.1 and classicWB full both on the 1200 and winuae. This adds a lot of libs. It works here. In the backbone guide is says that it works from 2.1 or 2.0. In another passage he says that if a 060 make things hard you should turn of superscalar cache. Could this be related?

@smerf
Smerf answer 2: Thanks. Appreciate it. I also am a hopeless fallout 3 fan. It just felt right with a classic fallout 3. I should have made 20 levels or something but did an early release. I do get an unhealthy satisfaction in stomping the mini mutants. They pay for the sins of their kin. Justice!

I tried it in UAE a moment ago but got owned by not being able to move properly (my fault for using the keyboard as a joystick replacement).

Not sure if it is a bug or not, but the background sort of fizzles out here after a screen and a half and is pretty much all black.

Post by: rvo_nl on September 17, 2011, 07:06:03 PM
Same here (black screen), but pretty funny seeing all that fallout stuff on my Amiga screen :) The game could be improved a bit though.

Would be cool to have the real Fallout 3 on Amiga some day, I really liked the game.

The introduction to the game was quite atmospheric. Great music and cool pictures. It gave me a feeling of entering a post-apocalyptic work. I know the intro is not finished yet, but with some text in-between the pictures, I'd say it would work quite nicely. The pictures I enjoyed the most was those of the scenery, like Megaton and Washington D.C.

As for the game itself, I think it is a good start. :) Looking forward to follow the future development of the game.

@Karlos
Try stomping them. Its more fulfilling.

Its not a bug, but a result of how the game was/(had to be under the circumstances) made. I hope you can interpret it as a transformation into a more minimalistic environment.   ;-)


@rvo_nl
Thanks for liking it. I shall try to polish the level and see if I can come up with more levels and foes later on.  And hopefully improve.

@Puni/Void
Thanks. I have to continue working on it, but thought it would be fun to make it available as it is now when its playable.

@cicero790

I try it on OS4 (4.1 Update 3) but i can't get it working for now, seems pretty nice by the way and would be awesome to get it working at 100% on our NG system (AmigaOS4/MorphOS) :-)

Nice Intro,

Interesting Game

Great & Funny SFX and music.

Congratulation and thanks for Share!

@samo79
I was hoping it would work on the NG's.Thanks for testing. Hope its still possible.


@utri007
Sorry it doesn’t work. Next you should be frolicing in carnage. It should jump right into the game after intro. Have you tried it on another system?

@drummerboy
Thanks so much.

When i try i get only a black screen, then after a while it turn back to the Workbench and freeze all the system, of course if you need some more test just ask :-)

I would glad to get it working on my OS4 miggy :-)

It's out of my reach, but I hope it's possible to locate Alistair Murray, and that he continues developing backbone for fun, honor and glory.
