a awesome gameplay video

Nice capture but the framerade in the video seems to be much slower than in the game..

awsome port! i played this back in the day, mad props :D

Thanks for the update deniska ! :D

Thanks! I love old school 1st person shooters! Doom, Heretic, Hexen, Duke Nukem 3D and of course the bloody Rise Of The Triad... Mmmm... I can still feel the scent of napalm...

I've just tried it but i get no music at all... Any Idea? I've used the instruments and cfg from the timidity link you've posted on a fat psp with 3.52.

Despite the music problem, it works flawlessly, nice framerate, wonderful customizable controls, i prefer the analog for moving, instead of using the d-pad. Thanks again, Deniska! After Tyrian, ;-) this is your best port.


I answer myself, it was my fault. all of the instruments in timidity.cfg were pointing to instruments folder instead of inst were i copied them, so renaming the folder to instruments fixed the problem. A good read of the readme file should prevented me of having this mistake. Ahhhh... I should paid more atention at my english lessons...

You forgot to include ICON0 and PIC1 in the source. Yes, I know those don't HAVE to be included, but not doing so means they either have to make their own or extract them from the eboot.

Otherwise, nice release! This was a favorite of mine. I'd turn the gore up to maximum. :)
