Added a buying system just now that took awhile to program and complete, this comes along with some nifty NPC AI I coded along side it. I'm also planning on redesigning the Twister spell because it's pretty useless as it is and is way too similar to Lightning Storm .. Anyway, here's a teaser of what's to come!

I'm going to release a new version very soon. Wow, did a ton of work recently! Upgraded Vigil a bit such as: When landing from a jump and holding attack down, his charge move is faster to execute! Great for delivering a huge blow when doing a backflip recovery...
I also added additional pain animations and behaviors to Vigil! This is so awesome to see in deathmatch; very cool to see Vigil round house kick another Vigil and watch 'em spin in the air, smack against a wall, then face plant into the floor!! Monsters can do this to you also! and there's more of em too
Player 1 executes the Cyclone Crush knocking Player 2 away like a ragdoll
Monster simply points at Vigil sending him flying
Update: Added Guard Breaking! Blocking is no longer the all purpose cure for situations, some monsters can hit Vigils blocking so hard he'll recoil, and move across the ground (kicking up dust too
) and is vunerable for half a second.
Next version will be harder then the last with more skill required. Great!

Nothing yet, I've slowed down work as I got a new job and I have to put some time into that. I'll give a real update after wednesday.

New version released
What's new?
---------------
NOTE: Hell Knights no longer drop armor shards, that idea is SCRAPPED!, you must load the village map and buy armor from the Blacksmith when you have enough gold.
- Flying swallow is performed by the attack button now instead of jump button
- Vigil now only ledge grabs while in the air
- New map "popaov" by pope!
- New HUD graphics
- Village is nearly completed, however more town folk need to be added and clip brushes
- New NPC system added including buying products and talking to people
- Many bugs fixed and tweaks done
- An arrow points Vigil's location when he cannot be seen, darkplaces only
- Rain effects added
- The camera is far superior as it attempts to stay out of walls!
- Updated a lot of the maps
- All new physics
- Vigil can be smacked into walls now
- Rewrote a lot of code, thus optimizing TAoV even more
- Vigil's ledge grab is a bit more accurate, you no longer have to fight between wall grabbing and ledge grabbing
- Air combos are easier to perform as an auto enemy tracking system has been added
- Brand new animation on Vigil
- Uppercut Slice is now blockable
- Enemy AI has once again improved
- Enemies may now air block increasing the skill threshold, especially on hard difficulty!
- Added "guard breaking", powerful attacks will disrupt Vigil's blocking!
- Added binds from insert to page down on the keyboard for easy map switching access!
- Enemies tweaked for new gameplay aspects
This is a huge gameplay increase from the last version, I suggest using magic more often now as it no longer plays second fiddle to sword play. This version is harder then the last overall but NOT in any cheap aspects, it's only increased in skill threshold! Enjoy ;)

Well, tower.bsp is now complete!
Vigil fighting on the final bridge towards the end ... 4 Horrors and a Baron, luckily there's a cliff you can take advantage of or fall in it yourself!
Under the bridge itself, how do I get back up? You figure it out.

Still working on levels, awaiting a final map02 from RPG and I'm also figuring out where to hide the required keys / relics and such.. I've also got to populate the town, then polishing a ton ..
I'm not sure how long this will take however.

Slow, but it's going.
I'm adding a new enemy "Spectral Sword" and other fun things .. releases are coming slower as you've probably all noticed and that's because as it nears completion I need to update in larger chunks (Mostly maps, NPCs, .. etc) since everything else is *almost* done.

Here's a new musical track I made for the TAoV's"Castle Entrance" upcoming level... it's titled "Running Wild"!
http://renegade.circa1984.com/TAoV%20-% ... 20Wild.mp3
Enjoy
[Update]
Dude, like.. scrolling clouds man! Darkplaces only, because it hits the entity limit and causes packet overflows in any other engine.
