Left 4 Dead 2 Playlist


Due to having a bit of a cold, I haven't been able to do much for Halloween this year. So here's a playlist of the Left 4 Dead 2 videos I did with some friends for the TMCFace channel a few years ago. I also made some new thumbnails  in Gmod to replace the super lazy ones I threw together back then.

Let's Play: Party Hard 2

Watch here.











So, this is what they mean by "party until you drop", right?

If anyone cares, the other game I wanted to play this month was Symphony of the Night. I hear a lot of people praising that game so it made sense for it to be a part of the Mr. Nutt Tries series.

Let's Play: Hype: The Time Quest Part 1

Watch here.

Playlist here.









In this video, I try out a game I saw someone play a while ago on YouTube.

Also, this was one of those old games. You know, the kind that put up a fight when you try to play it on a modern system. Basically, it’s too new to run on DosBox and also somehow manages to be too awkward to run in a VM (it couldn’t read the disc for some reason). But somehow I managed to get it to run at 1080p with the magic of nGlide (though the FMVs will crash the game when enabled because of course they will). Just one of those things you sometimes have to deal with when trying to run old Windows games. On the bright side, it wasn’t one of those old games that have SafeDisc or SecuROM because then there would have been no way to run this game on Windows 10 without somehow finding a safe CD crack.

Let's Play: Silver Part 4

In this part, the assault on the town continues!

Let's Play: Star Trek: Voyager Elite Force Part 3

Watch here.











In this part I go on a stealth mission... I'm sure the Quake III engine is perfect for those.

In this part, we investigate an abandoned looking ship only to be attacked by Cliff Racers or something.

Let's Play: Star Trek: Voyager Elite Force Part 1

Watch here.











In this video, I try playing Elite Force or the first time. Also, Ensign Munro makes his way through a Borg Cube the only way he knows how, by blowing everything up.

This was originally going to be a Mr. Nutt Tries video, but I now think I'll actually do a full Let's Play instead now.

Let's Play: Doom 2016 Part 5

Watch here.











In this part, I show that the hiatus hasn't dulled my skills one bit. I also screw up by accidently recording this one in 1080p. I mean, my PC handled it fine, but that file size though.

Lego Racers

You gotta love those 4:3 thumbnails
Watch here.















Here's a racing game I had a demo of once. Shame I still suck at racing games after all these years.

In other news, here's another crappy 3DMM video.

Ghost Johnson

Watch here.











Since I haven't uploaded anything new in a while, I decided to change this to a public video. It's just a dumb 3DMM video based off of one of the tracks from Vinesauce Joel's Super Ghostbusters album. I kind of was just bored one day and made this.

Fun Fact™: Because of the way 3DMM handles sounds, I had to keep watching this from the beginning over and over again to keep everything in sync. That was about as fun as it sounds.

I forgot to mention in the credits, the high quality audio import was done with PyQ. I can always upload a version with the "classic" audio quality if anyone wants.

Music from: Super Ghostbusters
Additional 3DMM stuff downloaded from 3dmm.com

I finally got Tonic Trouble Special Edition working properly!

So yeah, Tonic Trouble Special Edition now runs properly. Plus with the OEM patch (and save files working), I can play the whole game. So this means at some point, if I ever fix my uploading schedule, I can do a full Let's Play of this game. On a side note, I don't think I'll be having blogger host a clip again.

So, now for the part where I explain what I had to do. I downloaded a program called dgVoodoo and copied the DirectX dlls from the MS folder into the game's install folder (UbiSoft/Ed/). The fancy effects like anialising can be activated in the dgVoodoo control panel. Remember to add the install folder first, overwise you'll just be editing the default config file.

Before starting the game, you should take a look at the setup program to set up the graphics settings. I've never had any luck with any resolution other than 800x600 with this game, but it seems I can get dgVoodoo to get it to run in 720p and even 1080p.

As for the OEM patch, a Google search for the filename (tt_castlepatch.exe) brought me to a UbiSoft support page where I found out they still host the file. After letting that extract itself, open the program it placed in the game data folder (Ubisoft/Ed/GameData). There's also a 3D sound card patch you can get off of The Patch Scrolls. You just need to place the files in the game's dll folder (Ubisoft/Ed/dll).

While I don't know if it helped, I also followed a post that said that they also turn on compatibility mode (Windows XP SP3) for all of the programs in the game folder (Ubisoft/Ed) and the disc itself. Also, the game will need to run in administrator mode. To be fair, this is from that era where security was a lot more relaxed on PCs.
