Long time. And no we’re not dead. We are very much alive and active on our discord which is linked on the righthand top menu. Over 700 Members actually!
Our main holdback is as the title of this post states. We still need a C++ programmer. The base code has been updated to Visual Studio 2019. Aswell as Linux build brought up to speed. So that’s a check in the box so far. See below post dated June 19th 2020 for details.
It’s been a long time to get everything figured out, but we finally got Steam approval for the game and it is now downloadable as a Half-Life MOD through the Steam Store page. You will still need to have Half-Life 1 (HL1) in your Steam Library to be able to play the game, but once you have HL1 installed, Digital Paintball Redux will be downloadable for FREE. We have East, West, and Central servers available to be played on. The servers have AMX Mod downloaded on them so players will be able to vote for new maps. When admins are in the game AMX mod will help run scrimmages and make life in the servers much easier.
So what is different between Digital Paintball Redux and Digital Paintball 2.1?The main difference is that now the game will be available to download through the Steam Store page and not through third party websites. Anyone searching for a paintball game will be directed to this which will grow the community greatly! We also fixed game glitches and made some cosmetic changes with player models, gun models, sounds and the HUD display. The player 2 model now shows the player lean so you can use whichever player model you would like.
Important note: Because this game is a HL1 Mod, Digital Paintball Redux will show up with two icons in your Steam Library, 1 for the game store page, and one for the Mod itself. If you run the Store page game and try to connect to the servers a message will pop up and say ‘STEAM validation rejected’. Simply run the other Digital Paintball Redux in your Steam Library and your good to go! We’re working on getting this fixed, but STEAM customer service isn’t as responsive due to the pandemic so we decided to release the game so people could play while we work on this last issue.
The servers are up and running now and are ready for you to play! Make sure you add the servers to your favorites for easy access from STEAM. Please follow our Discord , Facebook, and Steam group for updates and any information or Support needed for the game. Thanks and hope everyone enjoys!!!
Hey everyone! we are back at it again working at it again! Bloodvayne is back tweaking with steamworks gutting through the files and looking to see what the server issue was! To be honest we all got really busy with life events and the release got super delayed and we apologize. we hope to figure this all out and get a realistic release date for all of you soon and hope to be playing shortly!!!
Hey yall. Bloodvayne here. Just giving a heads up that a patch for Redux is currently underway. This patch will contain various tweaks and fixes. And the complete US NXL 2018 season. Maybe even a couple extra maps thrown in there. And player re-skins. Pushing for either a New Years Day release or early January. In the mean time I will trickle some eye candy onto the site to watch our progress. Thanks for stopping by!
DPB Redux has not forgotten about our friends across the pond. Millennium Bitberg is still being worked on and will be included in release. Stay tuned for a glimpse soon!
