Stronghold (2001)

This article has a talk page!
view on tcrf.net

This page details one or more prototype versions of Stronghold (2001).

This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: Investigate the demo more. Possibly create an Prerelease page, investigate gm1 & tgx files as well, as after my slight investigation I've seen a lot to cover there...

Video Differences#

Demo

Stronghold2001-Ratangerdemo.mp4
Stronghold2001-Ratangerfinal.mp4
  • The demo version animation goes on longer than the final release.
  • The odd sounds are not present in the final release. Very likely the sound was intended to be there, because the sound matches the clip perfectly.

  • The only difference between the demo & release is the sound.

  • Again, the only difference between the demo & release is the sound.
  • However, on a side-note, the release version seems to have an "off" sound at the start of the clip.

  • The pig is in entirely different attire that we normally see him in.
  • Different animation, and for weird reason it zooms in on the Pig's face later.
  • Surprisingly, there is no more sound in any more animations, besides the Rat ones we saw before.

Now he's really angry about you.

Oh hey! An older version of the unused pig_attack!

  • Pig wears chain-mail armor across his head in the first photo.
