/iamturok/ - Turok General

good call, the thread 404'd literally seconds later.

Sorry for rushing it, wanted to make sure it would be in the /v/ thread before getting archived. I might flesh out the OP later if another thread is made and if I'm the one making it.

A new Turok that isn't like fuckin Evolution or Gears of Turok*.

I owned the first Turok on N64 but never beat it but I beat it on steam. All I need to get 100% achievements is to get all the secrets.

Also, these enemies are from deadside, the same place you go to in the game Shadowman. Allegedly these two IPs are in the same universe.

Fun fact, this is why they had to edit some of the map design. The extended draw distance revealed some shortcuts the original devs took that was originally hidden by the fog.

I've been switching back and forth since I haven't really listened to the PC soundtrack before.

Been preferring the N64 versions in most cases so far though.

>>171258394
I use the N64 tracks when playing Hardcore with "Extended Draw Distance" turned off, and the draw distance set to the lowest possible setting. On top of that, removing the quest markers and some other assist tools.

Why not? The background sounds indicate that the city is still under siege and as you can see that horses are used by the humans of Aida.

>>171260632
Adia.

I don't feel like evolution is as bad as people say.
It doesn't look very pretty but the gameplay is still very fun, it's turok

>>171260003
Dinosaurs patiently wait behind any door or corridor near your premise, at the other side of any walls and doors you may encounter. It's weird how sound still travels around, but it can also be taken as atmosphere, since the whole attack on the Port of Adia is basically a bunch of Bio-engineered Dinosaur Mutant Soldiers and other pure-breed dinosaurs running around invading and making havok.

>>171267863
it really is a travesty what happened to this series

I haven't played Shadow of Oblivion
How does it stack up to every other game in the series?

>>171265932
I used to dream of an open-world Turok game made in Farcry 2's Dunia engine. But nowadays I'd rather just let the franchise rest in relative peace.

So I just picked up 2 and I'm having a crashing issue probably related to some setting that I keep setting. Has anyone had any luck with setting the resolution scale to 1.25? I think that might be it. What happens is when I exit the menu back to the game everything is white and the game locks up. Might be related to changing out of windowed mode while it's running too, I don't know.

Also the controls menu is annoying as fuck. Any time you set a key it goes all the way back to the top.

How much harder is Hardcore than the regular Hard mode? What are the differences?

>>171269231
Also can you set the resolution scale to above 1.25 for supersampling even though you can't in the menu itself? I thought we were past only having post processing AA in deferred rendered games.

>>171268950
It's better than 2008 and at least on par with Evolution, but worse in every way compared to 1 and 2 for SP and Rage Wars for MP.

>>171268950
i don't remember much but i do remember it's not as impressive as 1 or 2 but it's decent. you'll notice a lot of reused assets and there's even a level that's just the turok 1 jungle map with some prettier graphics.

the main thing about turok 3 is that it just didn't try as hard as 1 or 2. the turok 2 devs were so determined to bring something new to the table that they decided to not even have any human enemies in the game. it seems like with t3 they dialed everything back a few notches except with graphics and animation which were admittedly impressive.

>>171269606
3's animations were worse than 2's.

>game is half price for people that bought turok 1
Based nightdive

>>171269881
you might be right but i remember being blown away by the lip syncing animations during cutscenes.

>>171270113
The lip syncing kind of creeps me out.

How would you feel if in the event that we ever get an entirely new turok game, how would you feel if the devs decided to put more effort into the story?
Admittedly, turok is the type of game where people don't really give a shit about the story, but what little bit is there are really cool ideas. I love the concept behind the lost land, being this alternate world of different things displaced in time.

>>171270323
Its really uncanny and looks bad by todays standards but when compared to what else was available on console it was impressive. MGS for example didn't even have mouth movement their heads just bobbed and it was pretty much the closest to any sort of lip syncing the PS1 really had to offer excluding FMVs or anime style cutscenes like in Xenogears or Lunar Silver Star Story. Obviously leaving PC out because back in 2000 PC was miles ahead of consoles for the most part.

Even Perfect Dark which is debatably the most graphically impressive console game of the 5th gen didn't have any sort of mouth movement.

>>171270367
I'd like to see more story in a Turok game. Turok has interesting lore but I feel like its missed potential.

I wonder if we'll get a level editor for turok 2 like we did for 1

I have distinctly fond memories of Turok 3. Now I was a kid at the time, so I could just be off base, but you got two choose between two different characters who had some cool weapon variations. The way it worked was you'd get the same weapon for both, and then you'd get an upgrade different for each. So for one the pistol upgrades into a silenced pistol and for the other it upgrades into a magnum. It was pretty sweet.

Again, I could just be misremembering. This was aeons ago for me. I know if they remaster it I will most certainly pick it up.

Never played Turok games because I never owned consoles back in the days but I fucking love tons of old 90s/early 00s fps games like SiN, Hexen 2, Quake, Blood and a shit load of others.

Does it still hold up or is it mainly fun because of nostalgia? Willing to pay full price on GOG if it's still a great game without the nostalgia.

Turok has the manliest grunt for climbing ladders ever

>>171286892
I wasn't even into the Turok games until I played the remaster for the first game. It's really good.

I found one I think and it leads me to some sanctuary where the girl explains I need talismans and eagle feathers but I can't do anything in the room and have to just go back out to the first level where I came from. Are there any eagle feathers on the first level?

>>171313080
>Are there any eagle feathers on the first level?
No. The Inventory screen in the menu tells you what each level has.

bamp

For some reason, I have to manually hide my taskbar when playing Turok 2, otherwise it overlays on top of the game. It's just on Turok 2, every other game in my steam library works fine.

This is one of the most unoptimized games I have ever seen. What it needs so much CPU performance for, I don't know.

>>171318652
Try turning off cool n quiet on your processor or speedstep if you have an intel.

I turned speedstep off on mine and it fixed it, It seems like the games are not demanding enough to even come out of idle clock speeds on many CPUs.

>>171320789
Nah, mine is using its full clock speed. I guess my CPU is just not good enough for this game from 1998.

>>171324515
What CPU do you have? I have an i5 4670k and haven't had any drops from 62 fps. Pretty sure the game only uses 1 CPU core so if you have one with shitty single core performance that could cause issues. It doesn't even have a recommended CPU though and the minimum is a 1.7GHz quad core which is pretty much all of them.

>>171326206
It's a 2.5 GHz quad core, it's not like some decrepit Pentium. I have to turn off everything and run the game with 50% resolution (native is 1920x1080), and I still get very heavy drops in certain rooms and whenever there are particle effects. It's unacceptable that such a game would require a fucking quad core in the first place. Does the remaster add all sorts of complex physics? No, the game is still functionally the same. The rendering engine they used is just unfit for this type of game. This Kex engine seems only suited for older sprite based shooters such as Doom 64 and Powerslave, the moment it tries to render full 3D scenes the performance requirement skyrockets. It's like remaking Unreal in GZDoom, that would undoubtedly run very poorly too.

>>171328818
I feel like there's another issue here. The game only uses 1 core so even if it recommends a quad core you could most likely get away with a dual core.

a pseudo open world type of turok.

Same structure as Turok 1 and 2. One HUB level that transports you to different stages which would be like little open worlds with objectives and their own bosses.

also with cyborg dinosaurs somewhere.

Guns, gore, and good gameplay.

No! This is bullshit!
There is no third thermal vent!

Fuck this placement. Literally impossible to see

How do you set up a dedicated server anyway?

>>171366928
You have to come back later with the talisman from the primagens lightship there's a path past the warp portal right by it. I believe thats also how you get the primagen key in the death marshes.

I'm pretty sure they added an invisible barrier because you couldn't jump far enough to reach it in the N64 version. Might have been there before not sure. Regardless you were never supposed to reach it until you have the talisman from the lightship.

I don't think there is a dedicated server option yet.

BEWARE ARCHIVE IS AT HAND

Thank you, Turok!

Is there a way to make your own maps?

>>171384020
Not yet.

I think this general will not last.

Not unless we have a coop campaign with customizable indian heroes.

Starting to think the same too. If more Turok games get remastered though, it might be worth bringing this back. Hell, it might be worth bringing it back if Rage Wars alone gets remastered.

How do i make the movements "centered" so that i don't have to throw up every five seconds, i remember there being an option but i can't tell which one is it

>>171393123
toy around with head boobing settings

>>171393123
You can't turn off the screen tilt when strafing for some reason. Maybe they'll add an option for it later. There are two headbob options in the console though. Type help to get the full list of commands.
