After a long day of waiting PSmonkey has finally released a new version IRIS!, heres the release info:

"Please note this is still a serious work in progress.

- Note, Sorry for the rather large file size (its because I included some quake2 deathmatch maps that were converted to quake3).

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Iris (ver 0.2 Alpha)

// Copyright Notes
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The Maps were created & edited by MGFox & Produkt ( nemo.dcemu.co.uk )
Invader was created by Reed Hawker ( http://www.alternatedimension.com/invader.html )
Q2Female & Q2Male were created by ID Software. The models are a direct copy from Quake 2 demo (With texture converted to .tga format) ( http://www.idsoftware.com )
Q2DM Maps were created by ID Software. The maps were pulled from planetQuake.com.

// Alpha Note
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Please note that this is still a work in progress. I am releasing 0.2 early so map moders can get a general
feel of the latest engine. There are many improvements to 0.2 that moders will need to take into consideration
when making their maps.

// Info
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
This is and alpha build of Iris 0.2 which hopefuly will become a big fan favorite in the psp scene.
Iris is a Simple yet fun death match game for the psp. Users can load up one of the included maps &
player models to play with or go online and download more maps & Quake 2 models to use in game. The
over all goal of this project is to have something simple, quick & fun yet not be restricted to maps
or characters they dont like. Eventualy the project will progress far enough to allow many things to
be modified or different game types made by the scene.

On behalf of Iris team, Happy Hunting!!

P.S. Sorry it's a little rough around the edges still. 0.2 is still heavly a work in progress!!

You probably shouldn't quote him with the forum tags, because those aren't shown on the front page news. Just do what Wraggster does and write here's what he had to say: and paste it instead of quoting him.

those of you interested in modding, here's a sample map (be advised following the tutorial on 0.1 editing with the addition of this sample will help you understand 0.2a mapping)

I love this game so much but I just need to ask something if anybody can help me (P.S. I really think I am staying on topic, if not i am sorry)

Does anybody know a program i can use to convert the textures of a character to .TGA file?

I'm not sure what version I have, but the ai sucks. The enemies basically turn in clockwise until they face you at 0 degrees. then they shoot until you die. but if you move, they have to turn all over again. also get stuck on walls


Dont say a game is bad, until you see all the hard work that was put into making it. You might have a second opinion.:cool:

I greatly prefer Robotorn 3D. There basically is no ai, but the game doesn't pretend to have any. Its a good shooter, (2 weapons YEAHAH. this game you only get one). Good movement controls, fairly good rendering. I actually like the fact that the enemies are like squares. I like killing squares. Anyway. I know psmonkey is working hard, but his games are hetting pwned. (Also monkey64 is a sad sight when compared with daedalus). I will play Iris when it finally becomes multiplayer.

You play games you like, I'll play games I like. I just think some of appreciate good gameplay more than good grafics.

In the meantime I'll wait for the next version of Iris, and reserve judgement.

Thats funny I could have sworn you were already passing judgment

Anyway. I know psmonkey is worki$ng hard, but his games are hetting pwned.

Dont try to play the "i know this is an alpha" crap either. you already made yourself look like a cock bite with this lame little statment


(Also monkey64 is a sad sight when compared with daedalus)

Not only did you go completely off topic but you managed to ruin what tiny bit of respect anyone has for someone that dosnt know exactly what is going on with the emulator. guess what, much like iris it is an alpha or a beta release.

hypocrisy i tell ye. you have offended the mod god. leave it for face my wrath.

... Which kind of Quake?
I don't think Iris will let you easily put Quake maps into it without first making modifications to them... I wouldn't know. Never tried it.

This game doesn't support any sort of scoring system, multiple gametypes, or any of that usual stuff, yet, right? Because, y'know, I'll start up a game and it's a Free-For-All all of the time and the game never ends (and I can't figure out how to exit out of the game so I have to shut off the whole PSP).

It's an inappropriate time for an upcoming feature request like this, but will Iris ever allow for more than just four AI? Like fifteen or thirty-one, even?
