A Quick Look at the Shadow Man '97 Prototype
Wait, what prototype? This one here.
I came across this a while back and was surprised to see it. I was quite excited in what would be there to see given the age of the prototype and was sad to see very little discussion about it online.
If you’ve never even heard of Shadow Man yourself, I might suggest picking it up digitally somewhere such as on Steam or GOG (or buy yourself a physical copy on eBay) - it’s a good ol’ third-person game based on a comic-book of the same name.

Just a heads up, but Zidane has completed a bounty provided on the bounty board and this time it’s a bounty to get Red Faction II’s level format reversed.
While Zidane was unable to reverse the entirety of the level format, he’s reversed enough of it that the levels can now be converted to OBJ, fully textured and with entity meshes converted too. Great work!
This should be incredibly interesting/useful for anyone looking to convert the models or levels to take a closer look at them.
If you want to check it out for yourself, you can find it on GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket.

The following video is a collection of voice recordings for the “cancelled” game, Dinosaur Planet, which was eventually released as Star Fox Adventures.
You can download a collection of all the individual samples split up here - I’ve split them up in the hope that they may be easier to organize for anyone that wishes to spend the time to do so.
These sounds were included in a Kiosk demo of Star Fox Adventures which can be found here.
