LOTFE

Legend of The Frozen Empire The day has come, it's 01.09.2014! As we promised we will release LOTFE on this day, which came true!

~~What is LOTFE?

Voy started the project originally, it was a small coop back in time. I (S.Boss) made a singleplayer mod years ago, but I stopped editing it( bugs, crashes, missing files... ). While playing Rune on a server, I met Voy who showed me his coop. I also showed him my unfinished singleplayer, or at least what remained from it... There were some correctly working maps, so I told Voy, I give them to him. I helped him with things like triggers or some fixes, later I decided to fix my SP maps to make them appropriate coop maps. Next, I joined him to finish the coop, I started editing totally new maps with Voy. Now, here we are with 40 coop maps ready to play for the Rune community, have fun!

- 40 Coop maps - New Textures - New Enemies - New Decorations - New Pickups - New Sounds - New Weapons - New Shields - New Foods - Secret Places - Ambient musics on the maps

RetroGOAT: Rune 1.0

Wizard takes a look at an old multiplayer favourite of his.

Rune is a hack 'n' slash melee action game developed by Humanhead Studios and released in 2001. It was very unique for its time and has since its release had a good multiplayer community. In 2012 it was re-released on Steam where it is now sold for €9.99. Games with similar fighting-systems include the Star Wars: Jedi Outcast series and Severance: Blade of Darkness.

The multiplayer community in Rune is divided between the classic Rune 1.0 and Rune: Halls of Valhalla, which was the stand-alone multiplayer version of the game. There are several differences between the gameplay of the multiplayer-modes in these games which have caused some to favour one over the other while some play both.

UPDATE: Rune has been re-released on GOG.com for the generous price of $4.99! Check it out at http://www.gog.com/game/rune_classic

I'm updating this blog.

The truth is...the layout of the old blog looked like shit. It was boring me to tears, and I think that's why I stayed away from the site for so long. In fact, I think I avoided taking real risks with this blog...and so I gave a pretty conservative approach to the content and layout of this site.

I've changed things around a little bit, and will be experimenting with the layout some more, so don't be surprised if you see more changes in the near future.

Visions of Power's Links Updated

Ok, guys....I've updated the links to your site, and I'll get around to fixing the other links around here. I've been lax about that, and need to fix it.

Spring Cleaning...

It's time for me to do some Spring Cleaning on this blog, and edit some of the links. I shall proceed forthwith.

GameSpy Multiplayer Shutting Down, Hundreds of Games at Risk

I have just been informed that the Master Servers for Rune are going to be shut down on May 31. If this is true, then I'm very concerned. This situation could place the entire Rune community in jeopardy, since Rune uses GameSpy (presumably). Please let this be a horrible rumor...

I can't get links to work, so you'll have to copy and paste that url. Sorry, folks...

I've Been Away For A Long Time...

I've been away for a very long time, but now I'm back. This is the longest period of time that I've gone without updating the blog. It's time to fix that...

Update 17 news - Thieves Guild Mod for Rune

Update 17

A new update with information about RPG character portraits, team collaborations, and beta testing...

Posted by Jetrell on Nov 21st, 2013

Debujin, our very talented digital artist has been hard at work making character portraits for our RPG "interactive dialog menu". I have uploaded some of his newly minted creations along with this update. I have also added a couple in-game screenshots of our RPG "interactive dialog menu" which feature Debujin's fine new portraits.

In addition, the Thieves Guild team has recently been collaborating with Walleck who is working on his very own Rune mod, The Svartnar Project. He's helped us out in several areas including adding some new combat code to some of our monsters and he's also been improving some of our player models... The collaboration between our two teams is going very well and we look forward to continuing to work with Walleck. The following link will take you to his Mod DB Svartnar site: Moddb.com

Soon we will be sending out our last batch of maps to our beta testers for final testing and review. If all goes well and according to plan we should be ready to release the Thieves Guild mod sometime after the New Year (fingers crossed). Happy holidays...

Updating The Site...

To anyone reading this....please take note that I will soon edit some of the links on this blog, as a few of these links are now defunct. And if anyone needs to chat with other Lambshack members or Rune gamers, the Facebook link above will take you to where you need to go. I decided to retire the Lambshack forum a long time ago, as it was just too much trouble to deal with. The Lambshack Facebook group is simply more active and convenient, serving my needs better than a forum ever did. Meanwhile, this blog is primarily used as an archive of links, information, and the occasional goofy video. So I do hope the information here proves to be helpful...

Some Old School Rune Art...

This Rune art is many years old, but it's so well-crafted...that I felt compelled to share it. It was designed by someone named, "Pork".

An Update...

Well, things have changed. For me, anyway. I took a break from Rune for a while, because I was emotionally burned out. I was dealing with leaving my lifelong home, and moving to an entirely different place. It was very stressful, and Rune just wasn't important for a while. I'm beginning to adapt to my new environment though, and I just started to play Rune again last week.

Naturally, life wouldn't be normal if I wasn't suffering from an illness of some kind. I've been dealing with hives, fevers, nausea, and extreme fatigue. Oh, and did I mention that I might have re-aggravated an old shoulder injury? Life is sweet...

But, whatever. I'm still here, and I'm still playing Rune. I've been on the Zaphirs servers, as that is what's been active lately. If any of you see me on there, then hit me up, and we can bash some skulls...
