Black Shades update?

Post by dormedas » Wed Jan 18, 2006 9:13 pm

I'm sorry if I'm noobish, im a bit new to the forums.

Anyways I was playing black shades and said "This game has potential" There are various reasons why I said that.
1. The graphics weren't high-end, or over-the-top, which was good
2. It kept the great gameplay with the lower graphics at high capacity
3. The gameplay was fun every time, and was never repetitive
4. the objective is one I haven't seen before

Now to help the game, as I was thinking in my head, was to Add a menu like Lugaru, such as a campaign mode, extra modes, challenges, and everything

Campaign : A group of terrorists disquised as normal people have and will always threaten the president, and you will protect him, along with 2 buddy Secret Service agents.

Sandbox mode : Able to spawn every weapon in the game so far, and able to spawn a terrorist whenever (Much like Madness)

Challenge Mode : Basically what we have now, but able to choose.

And additions to the game:

Third person view as an option, A few more weapons, and weapons that are real.

I've been pondering a while if i should post this, and I've finally done it. I would like this to be more of a spare-time project by David, not a demand. It would be a great game if it were updated, because it has the potential to be better

if you turn debug mode on (set "developer mode" to 1 in the config file), you can switch to any weapon, use lasersite, and use third person view, among other things. you can also make custom levels (spawning enemies) via the "customlevels" file in the data folder.

David is currently working on Lugaru 2, and therefor will probably not be coming out with any more black shades versions.

That would be interesting, but I don't think it would happen. Black Shades 2 would probably be more likely to happen than that.

Oh, and Madness Interactive is great fun. ;)

Did you play it too much?

Where is developer mode in the config document? The only thing I know, is to turn on "show fps and other info," and where are the custom levels you can create? I don't think you're making it up, I just dont know how to do those things. That lazer sight sounds really cool. :)
BTW* has anyone gotten this problem where enemies will disappear and reappear, really annoying when looking through the scope.
