Descent II Revival on 23 October 2004
11.10.04 at 02:25:04
 
Those of you who are familiar with Interplay's Descent series may be interested to know that Descent II players still get together to play on Kali in an organized event known as the Descent II Revivals.  The next revival is scheduled for 23 October at 8:30 PM Central Time, and you can get additional information from Phaser (the organizer) at Stealth's Hangar:

http://www.stealthshangar.com/

In case you aren't aware, there are patches to provide Glide support for Descent and Descent II, and there are now community enhanced versions which provide OpenGL support as well (D1X and D2X respectively) for both Windows and Linux.

If you need technical support with these games, you can get it at the Descent Bulletin Board:

omg DescentII that's the best game I've ever done, really Grin

Still play it on my K6-2 550 with Voodoo3 3000 Smiley

The Music is also fun to be played and remixed on my Roland E-14 keyboard. there are some great sample in that music for  Space trance remixes and so on  8)

this is the Pyro art of my Descent 2:

...

and here on my XP2700  Voodoo2 Sli PC Cheesy

"Sveta"

...

I did the paintjob by hand, making a PyroGX mod has been   an idea but how, was my question, so I though how about painting it, and that's how i came to the idea of painting it on my case with Humbrol Model paint. I looked at the box art of that Descent2 box, and that gave me the trigger to do something with it and my favourite game title deserves a Painted Case mod.   Wink

The Case is an Adtronnics 6896A Entry Level Server Tower, and it's very heavy in weight too, not advised for Lan Parties and people with bad backs  Lips Sealed
