This is pretty much a cat trying to hut and eat a deer like their lions cousins.

If only they just set out of what thry originally intended and just remaster the, original, get new HD sprites and interface, QoL changes and some other issues with accessibility in modern devices it will all grand

if you own the game on Steam you can play it RIGHT NOW!

Typical fucking bullshit. Bought it on gog? Tough luck!

What's preventing them from putting those builds on gog anyway? Just put them in the extras section and everything is fine.


Our goal is to include the Editor with the final release which will allow the creation of New Levels, and the ability to replace assets from the base game such as textures, sounds, audiologs, etc!

How much you want to bet that the editor will be Steam-only? They'll tie it to some bullshit Workshop functionality and use that as an excuse.

Hardly the only game that has stuck to Steam for pre-release beta-type stuff that needs to be frequently updated. GOG isn't so good for that stuff.

AFAIK in GOG every update should be examined and processed by GOG, so probably much more hassle to manage beta version that should be frequently updated. (You know GOG took much time themselves to release an update to relatively new game, Expedition: Viking.)

How much you want to bet that the editor will be Steam-only? They'll tie it to some bullshit Workshop functionality and use that as an excuse.

FWIW in case of Turok, GOG users received the level editor 3 or so months later.

Why they couldn't just make the remake first, earn some cash while probing the market and THEN make whatever game they wanted in the same style as System Shock?
It's like CEO of this company is braindead.

So I finally got around to doing that maze on Level 7. It was extremely tough, and careful spacing needed to be taken into consideration. This is what I finished off with on Thursday. Just the floor of the area.

And here's the final area, all walled and ceilinged up!

Blockouts going on:

So I've got something for you guys. I asked if it was OK to start showing off some of the work I got shifted over to (level design instead of props for the time being) and got approval. So, guess what :smiley:

Super rough version of the Maintenance Level. I'm using the SS1 textures to fill in the blockouts that Daniel finished and adding replacements as they're made.

The SS1 textures have also been rigged up so they have physically-based lighting. Or in non-artist terms, they look more like modern game art but they're still the old 1994 textures.

Some ideas. Feel free to use these, Steve!

[FREE Update] New Shodan Skin - Original: It's closer to the original SS!
[FREE Update] Survival Mode: Permadeath! New and harder difficulty options! Much new survival mechanics!
[Paid DLC]: GroveCrash: Escape from the jettisoned Gamma Grove! Time limit (the life support has cut-off!)! Procedurally generated grove level!
[FREE Update] Experimental Armory: The new weapons that was originally planned for the canceled reboot version!
[FREE Update] New Shodan Skin - SS2: System Shock 2 version!
[Paid DLC] The Many Simulation: Mini-strategy/management game where you grow Shodan's creation on Grove and later Tau Ceti V! Interquel to SS2! Wow.

Doesn't look good enough for publishers, considering adding some ideas for a PUBG clone.

Welcome home!

If you're wondering, yes, I am extracting the emissive (light producing) parts of the original textures to bring them to life the way they were intended in 1994 :D

July Update

Hello backers! It’s Stephen from Nightdive with this month’s update.
We’re busy reaching our September milestone which we’ve dubbed the, “Adventure Alpha” as it will be reminiscent of the original game with the difficulty set to zero. You’ll be able to freely traverse Citadel Station without the presence of enemies, pick up items, listen to audio logs, read emails and complete the game’s objectives from start to finish.

We were expecting to have all the levels blocked out by September, but with no other details...however, Jonathan has been able to apply the textures from System Shock to Daniel’s BSP giving us an insightful look into the original game. The textures have been modified to take advantage of PBR rendering and lighting placed to mimic the original. Here’s a first look…

This is what we were expecting to deliver in September:

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It’ll be a bit more like this now…

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

122cfdd079eb3df7316cd5840607408c_original.png

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Keep in mind these are the original textures and not the final art! Not only will it make the Adventure Alpha more interesting but it will provide the team with a blueprint of how to approach updated art, lighting, level design, etc.

Besides that we’ve got a few assets and screens to share!

Robb has been working very hard on re-conceptualizing and revisiting some of the common items and elements on board the station. Objects such as doors, lifts, and items like the dermal patches are all seeing new iterations.

@the_3RDplayer has been very busy! If you can’t get enough Shock be sure to check out his mod, System Shock: ReWired

System Shock: Rewired is the very first full fan made singleplayer campaign for the original System Shock in over 24 years! 3 brand new levels with branching paths, 4 new cyberspace sections, new puzzles, new audiologs (currently text only), new on-screen text and so much more awaits in the now dark corridors of the hospital ship UNN Bismarck.

Wait, a mod? For System Shock 1?!?

Time to investigate!

EDIT: Current version is 1.2.7, but there's an upcoming 1.3 'final' version, so one might want to hold off. Still, excellent news.
