That's a cool post shareware.

If you have editing capabilities sirlemonhead, you might want to put that towards the top of this thread so it doesn't get lost. (Or better yet, someone should include them with the download if they work with your port. I can't imagine they're not legal to download since gamespot has them)

Awesome job man!!! I always loved this game, and always thought it was better suited on a console than a pc (especially when playing as the alien). One thing that I'd really like to see in it other than the obvious movie/music support: Changeable resolutions. I have it hooked up via component (all HD modes enabled) and I'm not quite sure what resolution its running at, but it has a huge overscan issue. You can't read the mission hints that display at the top of the screen (cut off). I'd tried changing resolutions in game, but it just displays "Xbox 0x0x0" and I can't seem to change it; I assume other video modes aren't supported right now.

I havent coded multiple resolution support at all. It's not a problem or anything, I just dont have anything other than a composite hookup for my xbox so I can't do a whole lot of testing.

I never bothered to get the top console on screen properly. I was more or less hoping to re-write that so it's a bit bigger - it's somewhat unreadable on a pc at higher resolutions as it is (as is most menu text..)

Well if you want someone to test it out, I'd be more than glad to! I love this game. I found a temporary workaround for the console issue: Go to your character's configuration, and map "Message History" to something like Dpad Up. When you use that, it displays the messages in the center of the screen making them totally readable. Honestly the text is perfect for me to read as is; although it may be due to me playing on a 42" screen. One bug I've found so far: If you purposely/accidentally hit the back button at the stats screen (when you die) instead of hitting start, it freezes up.

Still looking for the backside of the AVP Cover so i can finally finish it and print it. Anyone? Post #426

I don't have the big box it originally came in anymore, just the back insert in the cd case if thats any use?

Aeon321 · « **Reply #441 on:** February 17, 2009, 01:20:00 PM »

If there is any text (thats describing the game) on there ... yes it is. All i really need is the text because it would be full of mistakes when i translate it myself (from german to english).

Also quality doesnt matter as long as i can read it

Thanks in advance.

Sorry if this has been answered already, but does the Cheat menu in the game suppose to work on the xbox?
On my xbox, it just locks up if you select that option. It's an amazing game just as is, but I was just wondering.

Wow! I apologize for my rude comments and doubting your progress on this Lemonhead.

Thanks for keeping the scene going.

What cheat are you trying to select and for what species? Does it happen on the pc version too?

I downloaded the profile editor AvP PE and enabled "Terror" on the Cheats section. I modified the marine levels completed to "Demo". The system freeze applies both to PC as well as the Xbox version.

UPDATE:
With the PE I updated all species game level to "Demo" and at least on the PC side I'm able access the Cheat Menu. I presume it will be the same for the Xbox version.

Thanks for your thought provoking question!

There is no DEMO level completion there are 4 Not Complete, training, Realistic and Directors Cut its is AVP Gold Edition you are using?

rocky5 · « **Reply #447 on:** February 20, 2009, 07:36:00 AM »

To get it to work i installed it and then renamed the AVP.exe to AVPGold as windows xp tries to patch it or something along though lines that's why it wouldn't start for me i then create a profile and blank all the buttons out enable all cheats and save it then i put the default.xbe in the same folder and just copy that folder to the xbox (Tsop flashed - IND-Bios 5003 - Dashboard - XBMC) then i just load the game and i haven had any problems apart from the odd crash that has been reported already.

Even new texture work fine in the game.

I just wanted to say Thank You for working on this. I noticed the news about it a couple of days ago so I tried it out asap. I have the Gold version for both Mac (which came in a clear DVD case) and the PC (which is in a dual CD case). If you would like scans of either of those covers, let me know.
