Finally got the game to work on Windows 11, so let's have a thread about it.>2011 remaster (used to be available as a pre-order bonus for Alice 2, so if you missed out you can find it on the usual website)>VorpalFix off of github, drag and drop where the exe file is>Open up VorpalFix dot ini and change the settings as you desire>Boot the game and go into the main menu options, you can change even more settings in the new VorpalFix submenuWorks great as far as I can tell, though my mouse remains way too sensitive because it's a modern gamer mouse with 10,000DPI and 1000Hz polling.
it's pretty mediocre honestly
I find it easier to run on linux
>>11448120>>VorpalFix off of github, drag and drop where the exe file is>>Open up VorpalFix dis this only for windows 11?
>>11448131>it's pretty mediocre honestlyThe gamplay isBut the atmosphere and especially the music is fantastic. If you're not into the whole late 90s/early 00s goth thing you won't like it
A child rape victim as the main character is a bit on the tasteless side for me
>>11448532Isn't that only in the non-retro sequel? I haven't played the original in a long time but I don't remember this being mentioned in it
>>11448532I can't speak for myself but I imagine it's better for victims of child tape to be represented as protagonists instead of than keeping them invisible
Really takes me back to reading PC mags on the bus to 6th grade. Seeing Alice ads right next to Deus Ex ads. I thought the art in Alice looked so cool (I like edgy junk) then forgot about it for years. It doesn't look like a good game from google images, there's a lot of promotional art and not many of gameplay shots.
>>11448502I really liked the gameplay honestly. Sure it's clunky but it's got some stellar level design. I particularly like how they integrated the "mindfuck" segments into actual gameplay, rather than have them just be trippy visual effects, something the sequel never managed to do.
>>11448532There is none of that in the original game. Alice lost her family in a house fire she was the only survivor, that is the source of her mental anguish.
I can't even tell if this plays better with a controller or kbm
>>11448120i liked it and the artstyle when it releaseddidnt have a way to play it properly until 2009 or soits worth checking out for the visualsbut falls short w\ the "gameplay"if you are a shitter at vidya, skipwatch a playthrough or most of one thoughamerican mcgee was the tits
>>11449741It uses so few inputs you can in fact play it just fine on controller, but on hard you'll need to land knife headshots a lot early on.
VorpalFix is really amazing btw, some dedicated modder fixed virtually all of the issues with the game.Get the game here:https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=645862676Get the mod here:https://github.com/Wemino/VorpalFixAlso, he's still releasing updates, if you have some autistic issue with the game, report it on github and he'll likely fix it. He's a coding wizard.>>11448532It was her sister, hence the fire. Although, this was all explained only in the sequel. Alice herself being gradually mindbroken into child prostitution was very tasteless though, yes.>>11449741It's a third person shooter on the Quake 3 engine, what do you think? There wasn't even controller support until the remaster and the console ports.
>>11450108Forgot to mention, the Steam guide tells you how to integrate this remaster into Alice Madness Returns, but you don't have to do it, just extract it literally anywhere and apply the mod. It's the full game.
>>11450092>>11449741i played it to completion on PS3 since it was included with the sequel and it was fine,the trick to land jump more easily is to use the aim so that it shows two feets on the ground and when you jump without inputting direction Alice will land where the aim is at the ground.
>>11448663>>11448648>>11448502Won’t mind PS2 and GameCube port
>>11450384>PS2 and GameCubeWouldn't have soldThe game was for weird PC nerds who listened to Nine Inch Nails
>>11448532>>11450108Honestly it's as much to listening to a music video by TOOBOE.The lyrics and visuals makes you turn but you just set it on repeat. It feels indulgent and grim, but makes the material enjoyable either way.
>>11448120Alice.
>>11452804Hope Mcgee’s sister safe and sound
>>11450407>Wouldn't have soldThis what EA prick believe
>>11448120What if Alice Otherland was fifth gen homebrew game instead two animated short
Bump

Rereleased HD on Switch, PS5 and deethbox?
>>11454813Miyuki-chan.
>>11448120I got my copy to work on a Silicon Mac. The game has to be one of the most soulful games ever made, even though its made in the Quake III engine.
>>11448120That's pretty cool. I had been posting links for fixed up versions for a while. This seems a lot better for the remaster though. >Fix the random sound selection function. (e.g., Cheshire Cat summon, Vorpal Blade hit sounds and much more)I had noticed odd and different sound effects sometimes in the remaster which made me not like it, I wonder if this fixes what I had noticed. >my mouse remains way too sensitiveVorpalFix restores console so you should be able to set sensitivity as low as you want. You should be able to do less than 1 through console to fine tune it that way.>seta cg_camerascale "1">cg_camerascale "1"I don't see VorpalFix mentioning it but you probably want to use console or set it in the autoexec.cfg to run these commands otherwise there's a bit of smoothing/delay to mouse movement.

Has there ever been any repack/fitgirl/magipack version of Madness returns worth archiving? I've got the 360 version on disc but I kinda want a backup PC copy.
>>11457554>>11456671I have Quake 4 disc for my xbox
>>11457589I have absolutely no idea how this comment is helpful in any way but I'm very happy for you
>>11457595Thanks for comment.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT_VC81KBa0
>>11448120One of my cousins (female) played the shit out of this game back in the 00's.Whatever they were going for with Alice, which never interested me, they got something right.
>>11448663>>11448648Man I only just now remember these ads but they were so vivid for me back in the day.
>>11457589Quake 4 is a good game and anyone who disagrees can suck my dick
>>11457589And I have Legacy of Kain on my Samsung fridge, what's your point?
>>11457838Someone said fridge?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdMvgOLFjas
>>11448648Same> Cтpaнa игp> not ЛКИ or ИгpoмaнияNGMI
>>11457867>>11457838How the remasters?
>>11458097It's the same game with a bit of polish, really. They added a day/night cycle that makes the latter game way too dark without a torch (which, admittedly, is very cool to look at it) which is prohibitively annoying and I personally think some of the new models look WORSE (Zephon's minions look like they're wearing jeans). If you have access to the tarted up PC ports you're gaining NOTHING except achievements.
>>11448120What would a Japanese McGee's Alice look like?
>>11458134he moved to china and made the sequel in china so kind of like that i guess
>>11458134Weird but kinohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyClUDim0m0
>>11457967I have no idea what that cyrillic garbo means. It was just the best version of that ad on googul images.
>>11458195Bulgarian writing system
>>11458195The first one, Strana Igr, means "Game Country/Land". The bottom one means "LKI" and "Igrmaniya" or "Gamemania".Thank God I took Russian classes.
>>11448648Bro looks constipated.
>>11458296> not knowing what ЛКИ disabbriviates toNice try but not quite there chief
>>11458489Not everyone was privileged with an access to the best computer games back then.
>>11458323Doomguy? Q-marine?
Bump wonderdream
>>11448648Lmao, putting niggas to rest like it's nothing.
>>11459351Pointy tip
>>11456671Ever play jedi outcast and star trek elite force?
>>11460363No, but I have played the Bionicle knock-off of Alice.
>>11457709Gen
>>11458119Get it on switch (Christmas discount)?
It's always crazy to me how American McGee was just a car mechanic that got into the game's industry through meeting John Carmack because they lived in the same apartment complex.
Why can’t McGee come up original dark fantasy IP instead ruined Alice with hot topic makeover?
>>11462027He got it from id Software ruining H. P. Lovecraft.They didn't even include his pet cat.
>>11462014shit like that is literally the rule and not exception
>>11462234maybe back then but nowadays i dont think so.
Wanted to buy the games on steam but decided no due to EA launcher. There was a thread on /v/ that I can no longer find with some other ways to play. Anyone got the links?
>>11462732It was posted in this thread twice now, read the thread before you post
>>11462732you don't need the ea launcher anymore
>>11462732>Wanted to buy the gamesMcGee has given us his blessing to pirate the games since he makes no money from them.
>>11448131It's an insipid game. It has too much story and lore for a platformer, too little story and lore for an adventure game, too little specialization for an RPG, too little variety in gameplay for an action platformer, etc. The games are brainless jank.
>>11462808i disagree
>>11462732There is no EA launcher in Alice Madness Returns.The first game is not sold anywhere, you can grab it here:>>11450108
>>11463164>>11462741Alright thanks, bought from steam for like 1 buck. I'll check the first game too from the link
>>11460382I remembered playing this
>>11464578Jesus that PAL cover is awfulIt's a French game too so it's not even a case of the cover art being ruined by baka gaijinsIt's the original cover
>>11464583I like the one on the left.
>>11462782McGee is a bro. >>11456671Q3 engine games were hella soulfull. >Heavy Metal: F.A.K.K. 2 >Jedi Knight>Star Trek: Voyager – Elite Force >James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire and hell, the OG Call of Duty.
>>11464583Japanese art just work and appealing.

>remember liking Alice back in the day and think I even bought Madness Returns at some point>spend time downloading them and configuring both of the games, install reshade and make sure the mouse sensitivity is right>only added hd texture mod to Alice 1 because I think the original textures are fine>archive both games, ready to play>stop playing Alice 1 is still so very cool.
>>11466601*text mod not texture
>>11465989I like how the "plumper" one in the third image has a fatter body but the tail remains bony.
>>11448120>the usual websitewhat "usual website"?
>>11467836Retard, he means archive.org or couple of other websites. Go back to plebddit.
>>11467840i'm not sure what reddit has to do with anything. but yeah i realized after posting they probably meant just downloading it from somewhere. in the alice threads on /v/ people talked a bit more about buying alice madness return keys when it wasn't available on steam anymore so that's what i was thinking of. bitch.
>>11467840Mod are retard…
>>11467463Tpb
>>11469308who tf uses that shit anymore?
Alice but for babies
