Was just informed about the beta 2 days ago...

Post by Hilwo »

I was just informed about the beta 2 days ago, Nem gave me the head's up.
A beta, complete with Pine Valley and everything. My response: You're shitting
me, right? To be able to play this after all those years of speculation? I managed
to track a copy and a friend of mine got it to work for me.

So far I've played all levels but Pine Valley, I'm saving that for last. I've kept
away from the forum because I didn't want anything to be spoiled for me.
So now I've played through all levels (except PV) and have seen lots of nice
differences, some dissapointments too of course. But overall I think it's
great that we've been given this beta, whoever is responsible for leaking it,
thank you very much.

Gotta get to work now, don't think I'll be able to play anymore today but got
tomorrow off so I'll let you guys know what I think of Pine Valley. And the other
levels too... I'll make something like Draco's topic, about the stuff I encountered,
but also what I expected, hoped for etc. Cheers!

You'll be thanking 2 people in particular, a guy who you don't know, and [MR. BIG] for buying the beta ;)

Aha! Welcome back. Yes, I've been meaning to get around to the second post of my adventures.. (I mass-uploaded all my beta screenshots a long time ago) Keeping very busy, though. PV is definitely the greatest part of the beta adventure to be had. Don't forget that there are at least two different routes to take, as we always knew!

Hilwo! Long time no see! Miss you!

It is great, isn't it? It's the one dream I never thought would come true either! And PV isn't perfect either, but hey... its the REAL PV. At least a version of it. I mean, it can't get too much cooler than that!

There are also new voiceovers in the TPA for Hammond and Anne! Thought you would be interested since you did the original voiceover list for the retail version. And btw, I am currently doing a new version of Jurassic Time to incorporate the new Hammond dialogue and more! :)

Miss you, man. Really.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Hey Scall, yeah I noticed in one of the topics
that the stream would have different voiceovers, I instantly stopped reading! I want
to dig throug the stream myself ;) So after I've done that, I'll bet I'll be looking forward
to your updated Jurassic Time!

I've played through all the levels but want to do it again before I'll post all my comments.
It's been a blast, I think that except for Pine Valley, going through beta Burroughs was
one of the biggest treats. I'm not able to get the power going at the plant in Pine Valley
but I'm starting to think that's because the level is not complete, but I'll find that out
later.

Right now I'm getting the stuff together I need to re-install Trespasser and to get it to
look as best as possible. Got a badass computer which was built for Fallout 3, I think I
should be able to play all at max :) I'll get back to you guys, thanks again!

It IS possible to activate the plant in Pine Valley, it's just that the beta engine doesn't like the turbine puzzle at all.

Well on that map thingy, the only red light that remains is the top right one. I think.
I flipped 2 switches, turned two wheels (one outside the compound, one inside) and
turn 3 of those power thingies. Is that all I'm able to do there? Please, no spoilers ;)

Hint: Look for some lights (two sets of six) near the switches, then look at the area and put two and two together ;)
