Unreleased Melee Mission 8 I76

Post by Nomad »

I was poking around in the audio files of the I76 Games and noticed some audio files for an 8th melee mission in the first game.

The dialog from grove said "It's a bunch of insane postal workers" and "Talk about going postal" followed by more dialog from a friendly saying "help help they've lost it! Help me".

The name of the audio files are s8sgc01 s8sgc02 and s8sn201. I know the gc stands for Grove Champion and s8 stands for scenario 8 or mission 8. n must stand for norms as they call them in the game.

I find this very interesting and was wanting to shed some light on this and possibly finding a way to play this unreleased level.

There would have to be an associated .CBT file in the .ZFS

I'll take a look the next time I'm in the file structure, assuming there isn't already an 8th mission and those are the alternate dialogue files...

Stand by.

The .MSN files are not part of the .ZFS file, therefore, it's not likely that the 8th mission was included with the game. Sorry.

I wonder why it never made it in the game. From hearing the dialog it was probably going to be a mission where you stop a bunch of postal drivers or something like that.

There are a lot of "loose ends" in both games, so I'm not surprised there's a couple unreferenced/unused files floating around. What we need is an hour or two with one of the developers and/or designers to find out what they had in mind and then unbury some bodies.
