Sole Signal Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 GoldenEye: Source Beta 3 is now released! It is a dramatic upgrade from the previous Beta, now at the technical level of Half-Life 2: Episode 2. To play, all that is required is at least one Valve game purchased and a free download of the Source SDK Base - Orange Box tool (in the Tools tab of Steam). Download mirrors for Beta 3: http://forums.goldeneyesource.net/index.php/board,18.0.html I produced about half of the current Beta 3 soundtrack along with Basstronix. We blended the old-school GoldenEye feel with orchestral and electronic elements for a fresh new take on the classic themes. Also included are several of our own "original" remixes of the bond theme. The soundtrack can be downloaded here: Mirror 1: http://ryanlobbins.com/mods/goldeneye/downloads/GES_Beta3_OST.zip Enjoy! This has been a project I've been working on for quite some time and am proud to have it finally released. Here's a video preview of the soundtrack: Quote
OverCoat Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Wasn't Krispy working on this? Whatever happened to that guy Quote
JadeAuto Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I'm going to have to give this a shot. I spent too much time playing this as a kid to pass it up! nice remixed sountrack, btw. Done right! Quote
Caster13 Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Wow. Music's great! Totally downloading that sound track. Quote
JadeAuto Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 After listening to all the tracks on this album, I can't help but feel impressed. This is top notch in my opinion. Can't wait until it's released to play it in steam. Quote
Sole Signal Posted February 7, 2009 Author Posted February 7, 2009 Thanks guys! Game is now released! Check the first post for linkage; I'll be in game tonight - feel free to say hi! Quote
Sole Signal Posted February 7, 2009 Author Posted February 7, 2009 Any fan of the original GoldenEye really owes it to themselves to try this out. We had eight servers maxed out all night long. 31 player deathmatch in Cradle = Epic. My Steam ID is [GE:S DEV] Audix; I'll be in and out of game all day. Quote
Blue123 Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Ahh, I remember this mod. I haven't played it in a while due to seemingly always empty servers, but I guess I might have another look. Here's to hoping they don't get taken down by an overzealous legal team. Also Audix, the friend function on Steam doesn't seem to find the ID you posted. Are you sure that's right? Quote
Doulifée Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Wasn't Krispy working on this?Whatever happened to that guy Perfect dark source for krispy. Quote
Bunjiro Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 This is awesome material... I'm getting all nostalgic about the good old days, playing GE with my friends... Then our N64 joysticks died on us. Quote
Triad Orion Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 To all who read this thread: I highly recommend downloading both the OST and GoldenEye Source. GE:S is a blast to play and is really nostalgic while at the same time bringing a few new elements to the game. There is a certain old-school shooter mentality that I like and the new touches to the maps and the aesthetic in general are quite good. And props to Audix for his great work on the music. Personally, I'd like to see more of OCR on GE:S. I think we could all have a blast with that when we're not playing TF2 or L4D. It comes with a high recommendation. A few bugs are still present, but the Beta 3 is very playable and a lot of fun. Quote
OverCoat Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Perfect dark source for krispy. oh I forgot about that XD I mix up my N64 shootan games Quote
Doulifée Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Nice OST Audix. also i replayed the beta. good old memory. i still know where are the guns. Quote
XZero Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 So good! I remember in the days before I had internet access putting a tape recorder up to the speaker on my TV to record the game soundtrack. These arrangements bring me back to the good old days! Thanks! Quote
Sole Signal Posted February 8, 2009 Author Posted February 8, 2009 Thanks guys! Ahh, I remember this mod. I haven't played it in a while due to seemingly always empty servers, but I guess I might have another look. Here's to hoping they don't get taken down by an overzealous legal team. Also Audix, the friend function on Steam doesn't seem to find the ID you posted. Are you sure that's right? Empty servers are hardly the problem now. We almost have "too" many people for several of the maps. And yeah, that's the correct ID. Just try a search for Audix and scroll until you find it. Also, thanks for the recommendation, Triad. It was good to see you in-game last night. I would also love to see more OCR people in the mix. Especially on License to Kill, it's an absolute blast to play, very fast paced. Quote
Doulifée Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 i want to add... the new lyrics for goldeneye ..it made me laugh. Quote
Toadofsky Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 I've played an early beta, but lag, and glitches affected play. I enjoyed what little I could play. And great job guys!! Quote
KillBill16 Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Amazing soundtrack, kudos! Are there any more classic game OST remixes like this? (Not on OCR, I mean) Quote
Zephyr Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 I was just playing the game and awesome soundtrack, was it mainly your tracks Audix? Or how was it split between you and Basstronix? You die really fast in that mod... Quote
Sole Signal Posted February 9, 2009 Author Posted February 9, 2009 I've played an early beta, but lag, and glitches affected play. I enjoyed what little I could play. And great job guys!! Thanks! Though you may be interested in knowing that Beta 3 is 100x better than Beta 1. It's an entirely different experience. @ Zephyr - The tracks are split about 50/50 in the game, though he has a few more in the released zip because I've only been with the mod for about a year and a half. I did nine tracks and seven of the achievement/win/loss jingles. And yes, you do die a lot. Optimum game size IMO is 8-10 players per map (except in complex), and with most of the servers doubling that number it gets a little crowded. Quote
Zephyr Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Golden Gun mode is my favorite, awesome fun. Quote
EdgeCrusher Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Ok, tried the beta. Wow, what a horrible mod. License to kill sucked, man with the golden gun sucked, deathmatch sucked. Character movement is about as awesome as it was in say, Half Life 1. Sticky as hell. Still lagging on a lot of servers. And annoying people playing. Quote
