Some might remember me as my old user name PTMC_Def as my codename in the Descent series when I played D1 - D3. But some older guys may just know me from ym personal user name Mario (either as N64Mario, or GCNMario). If anyone can recall my canceled WIP project for Descent 2, which was a D3 inspired project called Alpha Strike. before I left the scene as PTMC_Def, but still many new faces around here, I doubt it.
There was only one person I remember from the Descent scene. Deathwinger. I knew him from the good ole Mugen mods like the D2 Mod, Plutonian Outbreak (I think was the name). only contacted him via ICQ since he doesn't hav the other contact programs IIRC.
I just recently came back to ask a few questions. However, I did notice some of my descent links are not working anymore. Could be some fan sites, or sites that left the descent scene. Some of the 'broken' links I am referring to include:
http://www.descent3.net/
http://www.weenie.com/descent/maneuver.shtml
http://www.interplay.com/descent/descent.html - I was sure this was an officla site that would always be running.
http://www.pyroport.com/ - Whoa this used to be a descent website.
http://www.descent3.org/
http://www.planetdescent.com/xtremebuilder/ - Wow, an old descent project site I remember. At least the main site is still running. But not the project.
That's not even half of the descent links I collected over the years. I am surprised that lot of the links I have still work let alone still in the community. Those are the ones I have that are broken.
If anyone knows if they moved or just left the scene, let me nkow so I can just remove them from my favorites or update the links or whatever.
Anyway. I was more into the programming for other engines and played lot of video game emulation. Much for video game fan websites and fighting game engines. I've been hanging around the mugen scene, if anyone knows that fighting game engine, you know what I'm talking about.
So, I'd just like to know who is new and whos old, just to see how much the community has grown over the years.
LOL, I sound like a n00b here. But I've played Descent 2 and D3 before in my younger teenage years, but I haven't been playing it in the past couple of years. I was mainly focusing on video game and fighting game engines, as well as surfing the net for new emulation progress... But since this is not the place to discuss it, I won't go into full detail about it.
I realised lot of new D3 mods and levels have been made over the years, but I never get chance to look at them. Occasionally I check this site for D3 levels etc.

Also, since there isn't much any competition going on anyway. I thought I just check things out and all. Just to check out the boards, to see whos still playing the games. Just hanging out see what's going on in the community.
Love and Peace, ya'll!
