Brigand: Oaxaca News

Version 6.9

This patch replaces all the sound effects with the same format, hopefully more compatible with people using Linux or some other weird shit. It also fixes a couple problems with naming the player character. And some other stuff. I'm hoping people can get this running like a vodka smoothie over a Linux nerd's tits.

SOURCE CODE:
-Fixed bug with player's name from last update.
-Included left/right mouse inversion option for some Linux players.
-Fixed bug in which script booleans wouldn't work in the script if they weren't all lower case.

SCRIPTS:
-Player is now forbidden from naming himself after main characters (to prevent script bugs).
-Increased shock damage when player is swimming in the ocean during a lightning storm.
-(PANAMA) Disabled compass at start of Panama story.

RESOURCES:
-Replaced every file in the DEFAULT sounds folder with a uniform format for Linux compatibility.
-Replaced some texture files for Linux compatibility.

Linux/Proton Update Soon

I only ever got Brigand to run on Linux for about 5 minutes with WINE before crashing, and I can't remember the error message. But apparently people are playing it pretty smoothly now on Proton, which makes me happy. The main problem seems to be the sound files.

I hate dealing with audio and video, but I should at least make sure all the sound effects are in the same format. If someone out there has Proton and wants to download this RAR file and replace all the sound files to make sure it works, I'll post a new patch in a day or so with some other updates as well. The new sounds are twice the size, but it's worth it for compatibility.

Warlordocracy Demo v1

Warlordocracy will be the next project from Laughing Coyote Software. It's a real-time RPG that lets you pause and give orders to your party. Currently, it's just a single random map, a couple quests, and some baddies sprinkled around. No special abilities yet, but the inventory, combat, and dialogue are at least functioning. It should also be pretty challenging and work on Linux.

Get the demo here: https://blancaster45.itch.io/warlordocracy-demo

It's going to have a completely original soundtrack by Daniel Estay. And it will eventually be completely cross-platform.

Version 6.8B

There is new voice acting for Cherub in the Panama DLC. It was pretty obvious it was recorded on a cell phone. I also fixed a problem with the BSL scripting. The if statements required all lower case, now it doesn't matter.

I should have a playable demo for my next project in a couple weeks.

Brigand Mod Site

Two people here are making some new stories for Brigand, and I'm looking for a good site. I just got Brigand approved on Nexus, but it seems kind of complicated. https://www.nexusmods.com/brigandoaxaca

Maybe ModDB? But what I'm looking for is something that's just simple as fuck. Upload, download, no other worries. Like that NWN database back in the day.

Unfortunately, Steam Workshop only works if you implement it into the game code, and I cannot.
