Terminator Salvation

To do: Page seems somewhat unfinished.

Terminator Salvation is a third person cover-based shooter developed as a tie-in prequel for the 2009 movie with the same name.

I'll Be Back!

Unused Textures#

There are several unused textures, most are leftovers from prototypes or tests.

Prototype Leftovers#

Unused Cover Switch UI#

Unused Menu and Loading Screens#

Unused images for the menu and the loading screens, either placeholder or early images before the 3D graphics for the final ones were made. There were likely deveral different loading screens intended but the idea was likely scrapped when they settled on the Terminator head loading screen. The three loading image files also use the same image as a placeholder.

Test Textures#

Unused Audio#

A few unused sound files, mostly test audio.

"drama_test_001" seems to be dialogue made with two different scenes combined. The woman's lines are from the movie Lake Placid, and the man's are likely from either a movie or an audition featuring Christian Bale. This was likely a leftover from the "drama_test" level listed among the debug folders.

Debug Areas#

The game files have a lot of leftover startup files and folders for debug areas and prototype levels, most of them seem to be smaller ones testing individual game mechanics or enemies.

There are a lot of names that reffer to modes or features that are not preasent in the final game, such as Arcade and Endurence modes. There are also some references for network connection tests, which might be remnants of the scrapped multiplayer mode.
