Great to hear!  A fantastic piece of work that deserves more press

[Frodo]

Any progress on this? 

I'm dying to play the full game.   

[ernie]

There is many progress made in the last weeks. Mostly all solutions are now playable. We have a few new Members in the Team. All Characters are will be Remade by our new specialist for character modeling an animation and the Arcade Maschines in the arcade room now are playable. So if you wonder around the house and just wanna play something diffrent without leaving MM3D, just play a little mini game. The grafics are much better now in the first few rooms and the other will be remade in the new why too. Higher resolution textures and better Textures for many many objekts and rooms.
and and and.

Good to hear things are progressing

[Frodo]

This is exciting.   

[Frodo]

Do you have any more piccies you can show us?   

[ernie]

Sorry but the Team decided to keep "Radio silence" about new pics from the game, to keep the fun for all of you to explore the House as it was the first time when the game´s out.
But this is the Actual "Look" of it:
The first 5 rooms were retextured and enriched with many new details now and look far better then the old screens wich are still on our homepage and in the alpha demo.
The remade parts of the House now look much more like there is realy somone living there.
Beside new textures and models i worked on cleaning the rooms from unseen Polys wich brings a good performance boost to the new rooms and in the end to the hole game.
My Personal goal is, to make the 3D enviroment as close as detailed looking, as the 2D backrounds of the later LA Adventures ( Monkey 2, Indy 4 ). For Peformance resons this wont be fully Possible but i try to come as close to it as i can without "overfilling" the well known original rooms with useless stuff or lowering the FPS. I just add a few things per room, wich would fit to it and make the Textures more detailed.

[betpet]

It's good to know this is still going strong

[ernie]

We added a Hotspot funktion that highlights all usable objekts in the aktuall room.

[Frodo]

Glad to know you guys are still working on this.

The Outside look of the Mansion was Redone, and looks much better now.
Some parts were Remodeled, and the whole thing got a new Textur with a higer resolution then the old one. Many small things were added to make the house look more old ( like the edisons stopped to clean and fix it 20 years ago, after the meteor crash )
Broken windows, cracked wooden parts of the haus and nature crawling up the house for some years.
All in all it looks more Creepy now.

[ernie]

Here is a new video, were you can see the new "outside_room" and the new House.
The Player Models are Still the old one, but they will be replaced, ass soon as we found an 3D artist for that.
For better quality switch to 720p!
