POSTAL Megathread: Let's piss on everything and blow their heads off v1 - Games

Does anyone know a way to increase the blood decal lifetime beyond what it is in the options?

Can I just point out something in the OP that's been bugging me since this thread's creation: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/cvhXen5.png[/IMG] Is it like this for anyone else?

Yeah it needs more censors! The circle leaves too much to the imagination! Think of the children.

Wasn't Fag Hunter playable in AW7? Shame it isn't in the steam version.

I can notice frame resampling ('ghost' frames); may be a good idea to have it disabled as everything generally looks better for clips like these where the framerate is < 60. Though if you didn't render it before converting it to .gif and I'm saying this for no reason then that's egg on my face.

Not sure if everybody knows this, but Postal 2 was the target of (well sort of) a California law that wanted to charge retailers 1,000 dollars every time they sold it to someone under 18.

Yeah, when I use Vegas I'm sure to turn it off and just let it go at native 30fps. [editline]16th December 2013[/editline] Actually you may be right. This first one does look a bit nicer. [editline]16th December 2013[/editline] I went ahead and changed it.

[QUOTE=Rika-chan;43205799]mind dropboxin' it?[/QUOTE] Stick it in Postal2Complete/System. I changed the lifetime from about 30 seconds to a few hundred. It seemed like enough, I ran around and caused some carnage before returning to that house to take the screenshot. [QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;43205803]For some reason the lighting in this scene seems different than how it should. Are you using any fancy mods or injectors?[/QUOTE] Nope, although I did tweak a few settings in the default file to do with visuals, I wasn't aware of any changes. Perhaps it did more than I thought. Or it could just be that I turned contrast up. Edit: [URL]https://www.dropbox.com/s/n8s5habmctbjz0k/FX.u[/URL] Increased blood trail lifetime. Stumps bleed more now. Arteries spray slightly further.

ohey the game's on sale again

I wish I didn't have to wait until next month for the GOG version to update. I want this update inside me.

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;43204676]It's. Literally. An. Arcade. Machine. [I]that you can't even use[/I][/QUOTE]Fag Hunter became a playable arcade mini-game in the mod AW7, later known as A Weekend in Paradise, along with Immoral Kombat (a new arcade texture) and Teen Sniper (an unused arcade texture that has always been in the game). AW7 was first released in 2005 or 2006 and has essentially been the de facto method to play Postal 2 since then, especially considering AWP was officially included with the Fudge Pack and the 10th Anniversary Edition releases of the game. The Fag Hunter mini-game, in particular, was quite useful as winning it rewarded you with four bongs and a rocket launcher. The recent Steam patch integrated some AWP features, but there's still much more content from the mod to be seen, namely the new weapons, new items, the zombie school, and more cows. I'm not sure what RWS has planned for these things, but more content is always fun and all of AWP has always been a fan favorite. For the curious who have never played the original AWP mod, I took some screenshots of the playable arcade mini-games: [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/Hq2O8cY.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/pXqeki3.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/WjnkmcX.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/Mj3FA4p.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/RCjUucW.jpg[/img_thumb]

For some reason after I massacre too many people they start dropping as static objects instead of ragdolls and the ragdoll slider only goes up to 10 Is there any way to raise that further? It just looks really shitty when they fall on stairs or slopes

[QUOTE=TheCombine;43207225]Is there any way to raise that further?[/QUOTE]Head to the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\POSTAL2Complete\System Open "User.ini" and find the following line: RagdollMax=10 Increase it to your heart's content. And if you want more ragdolls, you probably also want more bystanders as well. Open "Postal2.ini" and find the following line: SliderPawnGoal=30 I suggest raising this value to 50 which is what the original CD release of Postal 2 used as a maximum.

[QUOTE=the tee;43201757]Guys you should all play multiplayer. It's fucking amazing. You can jump kick someone and launch them into another side of map so it makes look like a Dragon Ball fight.

From what I've played so far, I am honestly regretting not buying Postal 2 back when it was new. At the same time I'm glad I got it now as its actually a refreshing change of pace compared to most modern FPS'. Seriously, I never thought virtually going to the store to get milk would be fun, but that was partially because I had a couple of protesters chasing me, with some cops chasing them. And I hadn't done anything other than just being there.
