Please note: Everything in this is work in progress. We'll replace the Cremators effects with a particle one.
This is only for showing off our Alien Swarm build of Missing Information (more on this later).

Wow, thought this mod was dead? :o
We're not ;)
If you're going to stick with this type of effect, it would probably be a good idea to switch to a perlin-noise beam like the vortigaunt's zap attack from Episode 2.
That's what I had in mind :)
Not quite what I thought you meant by "particle one".
You could have meant a stream of particles like fire.
Or maybe metaball particles (Portal 2' paint) for acid.
Its alive! :D
you are changing to alien swarm?!?
cool so everybody can play your mod.
Btw, I thought the Cremator was originally supposed to spray acid from his gun. And a pipe goes from the gun to that 'poke-ball' on his stomach. It makes more sense than green lightning, lol :V
All his weapon sound files in the game start with "plasma" so maybe it just has highly flammable juices in its gut.
I thought the Cremator shot fire? :O
it shot acid, which would burn up organic mass;
i am also glad to see that this moddb page has somthing new posted, but if you guys really want more "frequent" news, just go to the lovetub forums

PS. Alive!!! Cool... Alien Swarm build in SDK 2009?
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
@QwerterGres
Alien Swarm is it´s own source engine - branch, and Orange Box (S2007 & 2009. 2009 being unmodable due to lack of sdk base and source code. yes, you can map for it and thats it) is it´s own source engine - branch.
They are modable now, I'm doing it all the time.
Alien Swarm and HL2 Beta? I hope it's not what I think it means...
Their is no Code for the 2009 branch. You can only map for that branch.
YOU R ALIVE
YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
Wait, this is from Alien Swarm? e.O
Its still the Source engine, but we're using the version that comes with Alien Swarm.
very cool stuff guys
Very glad to see this.
You guys are doing fine work, and we all owe our thanks to you.
OMG I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE DEAD OMG I LOVE THE BETA SO MUCH IMA GO PLAY NOW.
Maybe I'm just not getting it but cremator = flamethrower? >: either way do what you want. full support here, glad to see some activity on here.
The cremator never had a flamethrower, it had a different method of disposing bodies with its weapon. Just burning bodies on the streets would actually be quite nasty thinking about it now.
Keep in mind guys, this is just a test map, and we don't plan on sticking with that green beam effect. But yes we are alive even if we don't always talk about what we're doing.
Finnaly a new update! Thank you!
Also a fun bit of trivia: Contrary to popular belief, the green electricity effect was never supposed to be the Cremator's attack. This was actually the Strider's old weapon. The more you know!
Lovely
Any chance of Biohazard's shader badassery showing up here?
Its not unlikely :)
yeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeye
Even though I AM happy about this, I just realized that this is JUST a test map. Even though before I just wanted any kind of update, I just realized how small this one is. Keep up progress though, before I stop being nice. (I'm joking)
If you think you're disappointed now, wait until you see the next update! It will be the biggest let-down ever!
What do you mean? Is it going to be a extremely early map, or do you mean that its going to take even longer for the next update?
We'll never release any updates again.
EVER.
WHAT?!?!?! Why? Do you mean that you will not update the fans on the progress of the game, or that you are just going to stop working on this mod? It better not be the latter!
I'm not even going to answer this question because that would be an update.
You're being an ***. You little mother ******, why are you doing this to your fans? YOU are now acting like a ****. If this creamator is the last update, a simple test map and nothing big, you can go and **** yourself. Everyone here, all of you used to be fans are now likely going to give you the middle finger salute.
So far you're the only one. And we don't even want you as a "fan".
Sorry to once again break it to you. You're an entitled little kid that needs to grow up, and realize the world doesn't care about you.
ps. I hope you stop being a "fan" of us. Thank you and bye.
pps. this shouldn't be considered an official update from Missing Information!
"Realize the world doesn't care about you"? You are being a jerk.
I am a fan of this mod, but you just been too much of an ******* for me to contribute.
Why have you stopped updating? Is it just to **** me off more?
1. You're being a ****
2. The reason other people aren responding is because they dont want to start flame wars with you
ps. I hope you burn in hell you son of a bitch.
The only one going for a flame war here is you. Please don't think we consider you at all we when we make decisions. I'm sure others haven't replied because they're not idiots.
You've been as *** since the first post you made on our page, we've asked you to go away, but you just come back and start calling us names instead? I can't really see how you're a fan of this at all.
I was originally a fan until there were no updates for a YEAR. Also the flame war has already started buddy.
So you'd rather we spend time on making content with the purpose of keeping you in the loop instead of getting things done that'll get a release closer?
You're still the only on that's flaming, I'm just replying to your comments.
I can not emphasise this enough. We don't care if you're not a fan anymore. Go be a fan of some other mod that'll keep you updated.
ps. we've posted updates on our forum, and loads of updates on our IRC channel.
"Because of the port'...' more engine features being added'....' shaders being authored'...'things need to be redone because of inconsistencies in quality'....' expect further delay"
"In the mean time, here's a small 200x400 picture of a really neat hex bold on a helicopter"
Are you going to keep the laser, or will you change it to fire?
We'll change it to shoot acid eventually :)
Well ok then :)
