In Response To: Re: On Official Screenshots... (Godot)
: That box screenshot is from the 1993 version of PID (pre-PPC) so no floor
: textures. I would imagine it was taken from an early version of the full
: game rather than any demo. Hence all the extra stuff not seen in the demo.
Interesting. Odd, though, given how the level is titled 'Pathways into Darkness...' rather than 'Ground Floor', a fact coroborated by both the Message Window and the title at the top of the World View Window. Now, the level names from PiD v1.1 show:
Ground Flooro Darkness...
So, my guess is that the box screenshot is from before the level was renamed to 'Ground Floor'. Oddly, I don't think I recall seeing Ghouls and Headlesses at the same time on this level, at least not in the numbers we see. My guess is that the level was not only renamed, but also changed in terms of gameplay (monster placement, etc.) before the full game came out.
: 'Piltdown Screenshot' indeed. :)
Oh, yes indeed. ;)
