The Tain

Had me a hankering for 9 young pigs and 10 loaves of bread, so I decided to play Crow's Bridge. Can't believe it's been 25 years since the first time.

Nice work on 1.8.4. Thanks, Myrd and the rest of Project Magma for keeping the game going.

Sorry to start a new topic just to say hi, but hi! Hope everyone has been well! I've been having fun making coops for Starcraft the last bunch of years, but yeah, Myth will always be my first and greatest computer game true love. Those sure were the days...

Thanks, Pyro! Will check it out.

Heya, Souly. Congratulations on becoming a dad! I checked out your tagset, and wow! It makes Myth look 15 years younger. Must have been a monumental task to make so many beautiful models and animations. Very impressive! Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but some comments/questions: 1. I downloa...

Wow! Deadhold looks terrific so far. I'll certainly be buying this game when it comes out. Good luck on the development - hope it goes quickly!

That reminds me, have you seen the 1.8.0 promo video showcasing some of the bigger changes in 1.8.0? I have now that you linked it for me, thank you. Very cool stuff. Though subtle, I especially like the smoother projectile movements. Too bad, though, that there wasn't time, or maybe the desire, to...

Thank you for the replies, Pyro and Melekor. I want to respond at length but right now I'm on my iPhone, so maybe later. For now: Yes, what Myth needs most of all is new players, and for that, it needs marketing and distribution. What is the difficulty in adding the art and sound data to the demo? I...

I guess what you see as stagnation, I see as the game slowly approaching the perfect version of what it was supposed to be. Besides having fun, that's my goal when I do dev work on myth. I have no desire to constantly change stuff in some kind of never-ending quest to keep the game from "dying...

Point taken, Vinylrake. To be clear, what I'm taking about has little to do with Mazz. I don't think the dying off of Myth has to be so inevitable. What it needs though, is a quantum change. Starcraft came out around the same time as Myth and millions of people still play the latest incarnation. Of ...

Assuming someone had the interest in doing the programming, why not remove all limits? I've been using the Starcraft II map editor, and one of the coolest things about it is it doesn't impose many limits on the map maker. Want 10,000+ units to spawn at once? Go for it. Need to make your script 10,00...

I can try, but it's been at least five years and I'm not sure where I put them.

Hi! Will there be some sort of group testing or anything like that in the near future? If so, can I come?

I've been well, Khellek, thanks. I'm getting old and have a serious job now. I check my work emails more often than I used to check all the Myth forums. :P I still think about Myth and old pals like you. Probably will forever. I need a compelling enough reason to fire up the game again though. I mea...

Someone should ban this Khellek guy to keep all the riff raff from showing up again.

It's been years, but if Laws of Evil were released, I'd play again.

I remember when MagMa was just an idea and I was helping out on my crappy pc with the limited tools available at the time. I was about 17 at that time and I am 29 now. It has been pretty cool to see all of the things that MagMa has done. People came and went but it kept trucking along... ...lots of...
