Hail Jason!
Hail Jason!
I haven't had a capable computer for over a year now, but what ho, H&DD doesn't need one. I decided I might as well play again.
Thanks for keeping the site going!

Re: Hail Jason!
No worries, glad you can get back into playing H&DD again
Re: Hail Jason!
I was thinking of playing myself again, not played it in years. I bought the original for a fiver & also downloaded the free delux version, i forget, is there a difference between the two & what are those differences?

Re: Hail Jason!
The original used the insanity1 engine, the deluxe version uses insanity2. There are fewer bugs and the lighting and performance has increased in Deluxe but there are a few things "off" about it.
Re: Hail Jason!
Any chance of a comprehensive list?

Re: Hail Jason!
Well the main things different from H&D1 and H&D Deluxe are:
Deluxe is missing:
* exploding models
* different faces on soldiers and enemies
* no nazi insignia (easily fixed)
Deluxe has:
* overhauled graphics [the main difference]
* better multiplayer support
* overhauled collision system, tactical map and improved AI
They took out the faces for performance and didn't complete some things they were going to add due to a lack of time. At least that is the official note.
I have a project called H&D Deluxe restored in which I am editing the Deluxe game to be closer to the original. At this current point in time the project is frozen until I finish the website.
