One more short preview, this one showing off the effectiveness (or, rather, ineffectiveness) of the Klobb: https://youtu.be/ura54cufCm4

The level is nearing completion. It should hopefully be available soon!

Update: The level is 98% done - we are just working on tweaking a few minor things with the level's ending and then the new cheat unlock needs to be implemented - Invincibility's unlock will be moved to a different level for the mod. This new patch for Project: GoldenEye should hopefully be available in the next few weeks. We're shooting for a release before September 1st. I'll post a full list of updates to the mod when patch 2 is submitted to SubDrag.

Excellent! I'll have to give it a whirl once it's been uploaded to the Vault.

Sorry for the slight delay guys! The level should be released fully in the next couple of days, we're just doing some last minute testing to make sure things are smooth.

Project: GoldenEye Select Mission: 1. Return to Arkhangelsk 2. Q-Lab VR MP Levels: MP Characters: MP Weapons: Cheat Options: 1. *New Cheat* Play to find out! 2. Covert Weapons An MI5 operation has uncovered a weapon smuggling operation that has ties to Northern Russia. It now appears that our friends on the other side of the Thames won't be able to handle the entire operation on their own. You leave for Arkhangelsk tonight, 007. A supply truck is en-route to the location and we need you to intercept it when it arrives. We also need proof of the syndicate's activities so be on the lookout for a copy of their shipping records. I shouldn't have to remind you that Q expects you to bring back your equipment in usuable condition. Good luck, Bond. - M --------------------------------------------------- Project: GoldenEye is currently a twenty level single player mod for the N64 game, GoldenEye. The plan is to have a fifteen level campaign with five bonus levels once you beat the story on the higher difficulties. The story is a mixture of elements of the GoldenEye movie and game storyline, mixed with some new content. We've tested the hack extensively on the EverDrive 64 and on Mupen. We'd like to say the hack is as bug-free as possible. However, if you are able to find any bugs/glitches, please don't hesitate to let us know.

I was told a lot of people are having issues running this on emulators, although we have exclusively tested this on the Everdrive I can confirm it works with Mupen64++ and rice's video plugin.

Using the following settings, both levels run fine. The skys are static, however this does not deteriorate gameplay.

Haven't had a chance to play this as of yet, but it is definitely on my list! Will let you know if there are any issues getting it to load via emulation, but will be testing it on console, too.

I just played this on my N64 and I had a blast! I can't wait to see what else is in store!

Sounds great, Wreck. You'll definitely have to let us know what you think when you try it out!

Playing it on the N64 is definitely my perferred way of playing. Glad to hear you enjoyed it - it let's us know we're working in the rigit direction. We really want this mod to feel like a true alternative to the missions. One of the reasons the second level took so long to complete was due to the complete makeover the stage's background got.


The next patch will continue Bond's mission in Austria and should also include a small look into what we have plamned for Project: GoldenEye's multiplayer.

Very, very good work, you guys! I really enjoyed both those missions. Took me a while to beat them (went straight to 00 Agent), but that's not a bad thing at all.

Hehe, I really liked what happened when I went over the bungee jump in Dam. I won't spoil it for people, but it's worth jumping over at least once.

Pretty cool area at the bottom of the Dam, with the tinted glass doors and control terminals. Glad I had body armour from earlier.

The guy who runs to an alarm when you open the security gate where the modem screen in normal GE was is pretty fast. He got there on two attempts before I managed to kill him. It might be the framerate dipping that helps him out, as it's harder to shoot him with the stuttering.

Real nice job on VR Lab. While you know it is Archives, there are enough alterations and additions to make it feel different. Especially without the bookshelves. The attic looked cool, though I didn't spend much time up there.

The final objective, about collecting mission brief, could be confusing. I figured it meant to go back to the start room and press the wall switch, but to be safe, I did a lap around the level seeing if there was a file on a table. Could maybe change the text to "Report back to Q's assistant" or something. Maybe also add a line of text when trying to open the original interrogation room door to "This area is beyond the simulation limits" or similar. As it not saying anything when trying to open leaves you wondering.

Look forward to what is next! I hope you guys continue to push things, and continue the creative setups you have going. And if you ever need help trying something new that I may have some experience with, I'm here

[connery as bond]

Glad to hear you liked them, Wreck! The second level is definitely harder - I would say Dam on 00 should be comparable to Bunker i while Q-Lab VR on 00 should be similar to Frigate in terms of difficulty. Simply giving them different guns upped the difficulty considerably, but it just didn't feel right giving the terrorists KF7s. The fact that MP5Ks are used by the UK Special Forces, coupled with the fact that the Phantom is a "terrorist favorite," seemed to be a good enough reason for some gameplay variation.

We were hoping that the red blinking light changing to a green blinking light on that switch would be enough to signal the player that it's okay to press it then. It may indeed have to be looked at again - the ending was literally the last thing programmed into the level.

Without giving any spoilers away for future levels/patches, we have every intention of doing so.

Just finished this on Not64, great work. Once again i must complement the really well thought out enemy and item placement, they give an air of authenticity (i.e. not "videogame-y" not present in the original (00 agent).

One note on the Dam level, i think enemy respawning could be less pronounced (as it is atm, i think 3 guards respawn in the room where the covert modem was attached on the original and 3 guards spawn at the far end of the dam road?). I had a no alarm run (till the breach of course) and i could tell from the frametate when a new spawn took place.

As for the VR level, i really liked the small changes to the geometry and layout of the level. The armory was also a really nice addition, i felt like a kid in a candystore when i opened the door. I also think like Wreck said that the final objective should be more direct, or at least have an extra line or two at the briefing (from Moneypenny or Q, or w/e). I also managed a no alarms run after a few tries and stealth really makes a difference here.

All in all great work! Looking forward to the next build and the new set of levels.

Spoilers!
















From what i gather, Depot or Train would be next right? But as Salzburg or London Train Station?
I liked seeing Dr. Doak again, hopefully he pops up in a later mission as an operative again.

[007]

We are looking into the suggestions/issues you guys have brought up, thank you for bringing them to our attention.


As far as the next level being depot or train, I can say its neither of those maps, however, I can understand why you would think that considering you get a train ticket.
