As for modding, im wondering if besides a stage creator there will be possible to modify the models (enemies, guns)
This stuff is possible :) we need a modding/user section for t1 now on forum maybe?! I have already started messing with some stuff in the files. We need modding/usercontent/mapping team set up here made up of true fans :D

I agree with this to and I don't know modding myself but I can try or at least test stuff if anybody wanted help or an opinion on something they do :)

It gives more of that ambiance of the original version and not quite knowing what's lurking in the fog/shadows ahead.

For sure, specially in the catacombs. It also kinda helped melee enemies have a chance at hitting you, but now that the ai is more aggresive thats probably useless now.

That's a level that definitely looks better without extended draw distance and makes it feel darker. I've noticed that the Grenadiers don't throw grenades over your head, like they use to. xD

Also, am I the only one occasionally getting Mortal Wounds when using the rifle? I didn't think it works with guns... But, I'm playing Easy. I'll play higher difficulty when I start again. I love how there was a Swift and Deadly achievement. I lured four giant cave beetles and swiped them. One better than killing three at once! xP

Level 1 is still a level that I can mostly run around with just a knife in hand. Seeming I'm looking for Mortal Wounds early in the game, it saves me ammo for the levels ahead.

Seriously, the enemies are really harder on this version, even on normal mode they are way more of a challenge than in the original N64. Hard is certainly a challenge but manageable, I managed to finish the game on that difficulty after switching from normal mode on level 3.

But hardcore mode, oh boy, I started a new game on that difficulty and after a few minutes on level 3 I had to switch back to hard mode because I was getting killed left and right. The campaigner soldiers/poachers certainly have taken lessons from the forsaken warriors from Turok 3 because once they decide to start opening fire with their assault rifles they just stay glued firing away like crazy, lowering you health pretty quickly and rarely missing a shot. The already frustrating ancient warriors with blowguns become a real pain. Purlins become a nightmare and raptors always seem to give me a good maul before giving up the ghost. Even those with melee weapons had become a thing and leapers...oh god.

On a small note, I have to say that I love that they improved the shockwave cannon by making the charged shots not only cover a wider range but also becoming stronger. I noticed it on level 7, when I charged it and a alien was carbonized with one shot but regular shots took like three to be carbonized. I am glad they fixed this because originally that was a weapon that I only used on caves or in certain areas of the catacombs against leapers and beetles, now it is more useful and awesome.

I'll have to give that a try to see what that's like. You forgot to mention the Carboniferous Dragonflies. They would be a pain in the arse on Hardcore mode, because they're hard to hit at times. Not to mention the Yellow & Red Robots and the Triceratops Riders.

Those Triceratops on the hardest mode would probably give me as much trouble as the Hell Knights from Doom 3 did, earlier this year when I played it. Like the BFG9000, the Fusion Cannon is the answer for my problems! xD

Its most likely a bug. You only get them by using the knife and the bow's regular arrows. Cant remember if only human enemies drop them also.

Yeah, I know. That's why it was weird to me when I wasn't using the knife or arrows. It's no big deal because I already had the four that I wanted and I knifed them out of the enemies in level 1.

I got a few with the rifle while killing raptors in level 2. You can get Mortal Wounds from the raptors in the old game. You can't get them at all on Hard mode, but I'm not sure if that's changed for this one?

I don't mow if it has happened to anyone else but on very rare occasions whenever I kill a human enemy they may scream as if they were in tiny mode. It was kind of hilarious and I guess it was done on purpose. Had anyone had this happened to them?

Also, bleeding cyborgs...That's wonderful.

Guys, weird and funny stuff, because I know Turok Remasted work only fine on Windows 7 and higer, I wait for good news about support XP, but I find in net gog version and instaled on my XP Service Pack 3 and works fine  ;D

But I have some bug when I sometimes look up, I have Gainward GT 620 2 GB gpu









After all Turok Remastered is great, many nice things, cheats codes :) and a game is a little bit harder in normal :) many grahics options and videos on plus.
