Shocked and Awed

Post by Sivart343 »

You guys are amazing. It was just the other day that I decided to play Myth II: Soulblighter again, then decided to check what was avaliable for the game online. You see, I had never done this before, not having played the game in years, and when I first got the game, I did not even know what the internet was.

I am ashamed to admit it, but having owned Myth for nearly around 10 years now, I have never played the game online, or tried a plugin for it.

Thank you all very much for giving this game more life than ever for me, and congrats on all the awesome work and patching.

Firstly, welcome to the online Myth world! There's lots of stuff available at the tain (thetain.totalcodex.net) or udogs(hl.udogs.net).

Secondly, a caveat: The Myth II plugin Renwood is talking about is truly gorgeous with very high quality graphics, but it does cause some issues for some computers - so if it doesn't work on your computer check the forums here for tips, and don't get discouraged. The Wind Age and a new Greek unit tagset are both very high resolution - much higher than the game originally employed - and as such they really push the limits of the game on some computers, but there are hundreds of other plugins which will run just fine on your computer.

I encourage you to search around the tain and other resources and discover the vast and awesome array of third party plugins avaialble for download - Myth's engine is suited to a wide variety of gameplay dynamics.

There's a soccer-type game called Fetchball, there are civil war levels, world war two, vietnam, mythological feudal-japan era, tolkien-esque campaigns (The Seventh God), futuristic (Jinn)... the list goes on.

You're sure to find something you like!
