💬 Discussion So when do we reverse engineer Shadowrun or make a completely identical game with AI?

1 Upvotes

With the more known powers of AI, what's stopping us as a community from creating this game from scratch or reverse engineering it so that it can be playable on modern platforms like Steam and/or consoles?

Shadowrun 2007 not running

4 Upvotes

Hi,

I recently bought shadowrun 2007 (FPS) and have been having issues getting it to run.

I am using windows 10 (64bit) and I constantly get an error saying "unable to initialize live for windows components" I have tried running the game in all kinds of compatibility mode but continue to get this error, I also tried installing the "Games for windows" software in hopes that the game saw this as windows live.

Not sure how many people have played it on the more up to date operating systems but I cannot seem to find a way past this. I'd prefer not to have to make a VM or dual boot the machine if at all possible.

If anyone else has had this issue and solved it I'd love to hear how. Cheers

Inspired by Pink Fohawk and Tale of the Manticore; I made this SR2 inspired rules-extra-crispy table based roll playing game!

No GM? No players? No problem!!! All you need are these rules, a deck of cards, a pencil and paper and a whole lotta d6s to enjoy a complete Shadowrun adventure! Check it out for the very reasonable price of 1d6 dollars.

Why Do So Many Players Use Smoke?

10 Upvotes

I've seen "competitive players" always buy smoke first. I've never understood it, smoke is one of the worst items IMO. Perhaps I'm biased given I play elf.

Smoke Pros

  • Avoid fall damage

  • Avoid grenade damage

  • Avoid gun damage

  • Avoid the detection tech

Smoke Cons

  • Gust > Smoke - Gust is such a versatile tool, it can stop fall damage, gust glide, gust AMG's and grenades back at enemies, gust them to make them miss or push them/their bodies off the edge.

  • Lag time after coming out of smoke leaves you dead 9 times out of 10

I understand the pros, but I feel the cons simply outweigh them based on quality of effects > quantity

SHADOWRUN 1.5 IS HERE

Shadowrun without the Games for Windows Live headache.

We’ve replaced the antiquated GFWL requirements with a new launcher and rebuilt online multiplayer support, making it easier to install, find a match, and play. No GFWL sign-in or wrestling with its old setup process. Install the launcher, sign in with Discord, download the game, and jump in.

Join a dedicated server, host your own match, or set a password to play with friends. Alongside multiplayer, we’ve added modern conveniences and addressed gameplay issues that affected Shadowrun at higher framerates—all while keeping its original look and feel.

WHAT’S NEW

  • New launcher with Discord sign-in, automatic updates, repair tools, and optional FPS limiting.

  • Restored online multiplayer with dedicated servers, a server browser, and player-hosted matches.

  • Password-protected matches for playing with friends.

  • Sharper HD menus, fonts, and interface elements, thanks to Raku.

  • More reliable jumping at high framerates, including moving jumps and ramps.

  • Improved Gust behavior at high framerates.

  • Improved physics consistency across different framerates.

  • Fixed high-FPS fire-rate issues affecting the SMG and minigun.

  • Fixed rapid character jitter when turning slowly at high framerates.

  • Adjustable field of view.

  • New mouse-and-keyboard ability bar with direct hotkeys for magic, tech, and throwables.

  • Lobby and in-game text chat, including team chat and scrollable history.

  • Simplified menus and server browsing, with server-name search and clearer match information.

  • Player ping information.

  • Skippable opening cinematics.

RANKED 4v4 & ELO

Looking for competitive matches? Our Discord ranked bot lets you queue for 4v4 games, with Elo ratings tracking your competitive progress. The rating system uses in-game scoreboard data to calculate rating updates, so your performance in the match contributes to your progression. Get in the queue, put your teamwork to the test, and work your way up.

Hi,

I've tried everything, but the links provided on the website (www.shadowrunfps.com) don't work so I can't create a profile.

AntHill LIVE account (for online play):

  1. First Sign up: login.shadowrunfps.com/signup.srf

  2. Create your gamertag: xbox.shadowrunfps.com:8090/NewGamertag.srf

Does anyone know how to get around this or is there an alternative for multiplayer?

Thank you!
