I just want to beat this game once, ONCE, but it won't fucking let me. I just can't do this, I can't go through it again, is it even possible to get past this part?

Tazing him should get him to move again, I know it worked for me.

Oh, also, due to some fuck up on which videos are supposed to play, you'll get the bad path cutscene if you finish it on the good path.

Holy shit what
How can a developer have such a massive fundamental issue such as that
Holy fucking shit I knew it was broken, but this is on another level.

 No.1947

Hah! I see you're enjoying the wonderful splendors of Postal 3! Yeah, there's a heep of crazy stuff like that throughout the game.

In my eyes the biggest crime they comitted, was removing this track:

I'm working on a patch.

THAT was in the soundtrack? I'm surprised, considering the OST is such trash I just turned it off.

There are definitely some stand-out gems in there, lol.

That fucking track that plays during the opening bridge section is pure depressing trash, but once you reached the porn shop stage and started fighting the hockey moms, and this track kicked in - your spirits would immediately get lifted.

But they had to take that out, the filthy bastards!

 No.1958

Why would they remove this!? Jesus christ! Anyone know where I can find this song?

Also I really hated how they decided to use the loud music in cutscenes, so that you couldn't hear what people were saying half the time.

Like I said - I'm working on a patch. One of the things this patch will address is adding back the ORIGINAL Porn Shop Fight Theme.

 No.1974

I keep seeing that. The word has always been 'treasure', not 'gems'. No need to change it. That should read "There are definitely some stand-out treasures in there". I don't blame you though. You can't resist the lure of popular culture distorting your vocabulary.

Fucking what?
I don't even…

>Playing Postal 3

Why would you do that?

When you say patch, you mean a mod, right? Since Akella are the only ones with access to updating the Steam game, aren't they?

 No.1999

>>1995
I guess you could call it a mod, but since its focus will be to fix and repair the game, and not really alter its content, I'd think of it more as a patch.

And yeah, I can't put it out through Steam, so it will be an external patch.

 No.2014

Doing great things, Flannychan

 No.2018

>>1999
So what sort of things are we looking at fixing, Based Flan-Chan?

Like, what's possible for you to actually fix? I'm guessing there's no way of fixing the retarded AI and put jumping/crouching back in, right?

 No.2033

>>2018
Yeah, the unfortunate thing is that without the Source Code or an SDK, or any mod tools, there's just not much that can be done about a lot of the really heavy stuff in-game. The only tinkering that can be done with it, is through the files that come with the install.

HOWEVER - a good chunk of the game's scripts are totally un-encrypted and just sitting in a "scripts" folder (thanks, Russians!). From what I've bee able to tell, it seems that we can tinker around mainly with AI behavior, GUI layouts and weapon parameters (maybe more, difficult to figure out exactly what all these scripts do). We've already got scripts that should make the escort missions significantly less painful to play through.

Also, there's simple things like fixing wrongly labeled videos (literally the wrong cutscenes play when you finish the police station level) and making soundtrack changes. Also going to change the kick/piss keys to be like they are in P2, including having the piss key toggle between piss and weapons. Also looking into having the Free Roam be unlocked by default from the start. Also going to add the previously pre-order exclusive FART GUN by default, though might have to nerf it a bit as I remember it being OP as fuck. Oh, and definitely going to increase the dude's volume of piss, so you can piss longer than 2 seconds. Also enabling 360 controller support by default.

So yeah, that's some of the stuff that's being looked at for patching right now. Hope we can get everything currently planned to work, and I hope we can do so much more with the scripts and shit (though there just isn't the man-power to tackle that issue, it's just me at the moment).
