Serious Sam II will be released for PC and Xbox in fall 2005

Использование рендера OpenGL вместо Direct3D :

To use OpenGL:

Go to your Serious Sam 2 demo directory
Then go into the /Bin directory
Rename GfxD3D.dll to GfxD3D.dll.bak
Rename GfxOGL.dll to GfxD3D.dll
To go back to Direct3D:

Go to your Serious Sam 2 demo directory
Then go into the /Bin directory
Rename GfxD3D.dll to GfxOGL.dll
Rename GfxD3D.dll.bakto GfxD3D.dll

this variable set to 1 causes SS2 to use openGL; 1 = opengl, 2 = directx, 3 = software (missing software dll in demo)
filename \Content\SeriousSam2\Sam2.ini [Engine] gfx_iAPI = 1;
EDIT: You have to create it.

This one fixes the problem that sometimes the server would not allow the client to connect, even when both were patched. A message stating theat the reason for failure was a 'version mismatch' was displayed on the client.

Bring down console with ~
Type 'sam_iEnableCheats=1' (without quotes) and hit enter

You can then press ESC and F1 to open the cheats window for things such as God mode and all the weapons.


Other useful commands:

hud_iShowBandwidth = 1
hud_bShowCrosshair = 1
sam_ctMaxDebris = 20
sam_bEnableRagdollDeaths = 0

You can also change these in /Content/SeriousSam2/sam.ini

sam_iEnableCheats = 2 to enable more cheats:

- God mode
- Ghost mode
- Giveall
- Give extra life
- Turbo mode

так что ждем не дождемся, будем рвать мясо

А я вот в продаже видел уже диск, причем не сэконд энкаутер, а именно SS2 на новом движке...
