Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold - Playthrough - Mission 1 L1

[Spellbreakz]

The sound when you pick up a gun is so epic.

[armymen12002003]

this is a game that is really under rated if u ask me should been ported over to ps3 & xbox 360 like wolf 3d & doom was ported over

[irontusk341]

great game based on the wolfenstein 3d engine

[SHOTbyGUN]

Huhhuh, as Kid I was so freaking white when I played this, I was scared so freaking much :D

[filrut]

Music is classic! I remember back when sound blasters were a big deal

[AlexeiVoronin]

After some experimentation, I found out that the best cycles values for me are 20,000 - 24,000 at most. Higher values caused severe sound stuttering and other problems.

For Wolf 3d and SoD, however, I deliberately keep cycles lower, to avoid the well-known problem of pushwalls going further than intended.

[constancenoring]

@AlexeiVoronin Yes, depends on your system and what programs you run in the background (Firewall, AV etc)

[AlexeiVoronin]

Wolf 3D and SoD play really fast and smooth in DosBox, but Blake stubbornly keeps being choppy.

What configuration did you use while recording these videos?

[constancenoring]

@AlexeiVoronin

At the time I was using Windows XP and I had to push the CPU Cycles up to ~ 26 - 30,000 cyles. I think it played smoother than how it looks in the video. However, DosBox is alot better under Linux with better performance and less issues in my experience.

[AlexeiVoronin]

@constancenoring - I am using Windows XP as well. So far I usually used between 10,000 - 20,000 cycles for Wolf-engine games (I thought sound might get choppy at higher numbers), but I will try your suggestion too.

Thanks :)

[YRAntiNoob]

Star Insttute General Operations lulz.

"GUARD !"

Dude, play the VETERAN mode for real fun instead... It makes the start of E1M1 so dangerous xDDD

[doomsd46]

I love this game! <3 I loved getting to the secret teleporter! I have to go play this again right now! :D

[DoubleL3991]

This game was my drug!

[Causalspark]

I don't understand the point of the guy yelling "MEDIC" when you can see guts spilling out from a hole in his gut.

[DontrelleRoosevelt]

@Causalspark It's the future! You'd be surprised what doctors can pull off!

[Roq999]

This game was sooo badass when I was little!

[kcimmid]

I wanna play it somebody know how you can play this on a vista or a OS X snow LEopard?

[kcimmid]

geniaal

[PiccoloNamek]

INTRUDER.

[ElledarBlackraven]

@BortBortson Same dying cry as the Chrysalids and Snakemen if memory serves.

[PhantomJerad]

Wordboy: Lexicioian Agent By PBS kidsGO!

[HowDumb]

I played this game when I was 4 years old!

[Blueking09991]

"INTRUDER" "MEDIC" Whats an intruder medic? That whats sound like a Sector Patrolman says when he sees you and dies.

[TenkanVlog]

Oh my god! Flashbacks!!! I remember this game so distinctly!!!!!!!

I loved it!

I even remember the last level and everything! OMG!

[zildjian1234567890]

Is DOSBox safe? Like, it's not gonna fuck up my vista laptop or anything right?

[constancenoring]

@zildjian1234567890

Yes, it's open source so 100% spyware and virus free and can be removed like any other application.

[doomsd46]

@constancenoring - Completely unrelated to the comment I am replying to, but why do you go the hard way to get the machine gun and bazooka? There is a fair easier way where you get the bazooka first and then you easily waste the green guys. Just wondering...

[YRAntiNoob]

@doomsd46 True, in veteran there are 5 S. Troopers inside that secret room, and before I found the other way I tried killing them with my RAW. What a nightmare ! lulz

Does he say "Adieu !" when he falls ?

[TheOldschool81]

@zildjian1234567890

"Facepalm."

[hughesms]

I used to turn off the energy fields then turn them back on thus zapping the monsters!!! Manys an hour played on this!

[firstinitiallastname]

You are awesome for doing this. Aliens of Gold and Planet Strike are two seriously underrated games.

[CleansWithRag]

"NO!" I love that!

I used to shoot everyone, because I liked to hear them die... as screwed up as that sounds... it was funny back then, and it's funny now.

I was... 6? 7? when I first played this. Back in the day... this was futuristic, and as advanced as Wolfenstien 3D, and I thought 'games can't get any better than this'.

How wrong I was.

I truly believe that they should remake the Wolfenstiens, and Blake Stones, and other great games of the past.

[ShypkusPIes]

this is just the futuristic version of Wolfenstein 3d...

[HydraSX]

This game was three degrees of dope.

[Zwank36]

never really liked this game, got old quickly among a million wolf3d clones.

[Black1Ok]

WTF is that DOS? I havent seen that since I was like 5. Lol My Mother used to play Blake Stone and Duke Nukem.

[boxocoffee]

intro music ftw

[Arwingpilot]

Strange... Wouldn't all the running increase the heart rate, too?

[wolf3dhooray]

me too thenchi

[eduardo1600]

please!! send me the game!!

5/5

favourites!

[Chercaassie]

does anyone have the game? could they send it to me?

[volure1]

back in the day i admit it was hella fun but i enjoy doom better tho

[otyroo2]

good old dosbox

[thenchi]

when i was a kid, i was afraid of the high energy plasma alien, because there was a hall, where they came from 2 directions, and no mather how many you killed, new ones were coming. good times :) nice vid

[jerman2003]

haha, nice to know I'm not alone with the whole tapping the space bar along the walls looking for secrets.

[Moneyhands19]

NO!!!!!!! lol

[Moneyhands19]

That intro music is AWESOME!!!!!

[bioshipcoccinellidae]

1:03 lol fail

[yourFriendtheTaxman]

hell yeah I remember playing this back in the day! unfortunately all I played was the shareware version. anyone know where I can download the whole thing?

[HipHopGaming]

"MEDIC"

Epic game

[TehLolWutPear]

Brofist, can you tell me what program you're using to record this, and what your cpu cycles etc are on dosbox?

[SeppukuDoll]

Apogee kicked some serious ass.

[800cool800]

OMG i can't belive ppl still play this game it was awesome fun and funny as lolz sick i want it again

[Deimonian]

Wolfenstein3D engine ftw

:D

[flamelayer5]

so many good memories

[moyergeo]

X-com death noises

[printz150]

Fine, but why are you not playing on the hardest skill level? Walkthroughs are supposed to be played on the hardest mode possible, because they're meant to help players who have trouble winning the game.

[chicomath]

shhh

[TehLolWutPear]

What if people are having trouble on good ol beginner?

[printz150]

Beginner is not difficult enough, still. It's hard that hurts, especially against STAR troopers, when you have no plasma discharger.

[crimsonlung]

fuck me this brings back memories....

[DNchap1417]

Never mind... I found a way to curtail the slow pace... during the game play, press CTRL+F12 several times to give you the desired speed.

[DNchap1417]

what programme are you using to emulate the game?

[mygaffer]

This game was awesome, I used to play it all the time when I was a little kid. All the different alien enemies really gave the game some variety.

[tomthenomad]

awesome

[SpyroSan]

I love this game, where did you get it?

[Otacon237]

Man, this was a sweet game back in the day. My favorite enemies were the green "STOP!" guys.

[Cloudentine]

DOSBOX!!!! XD

[MindstormXL]

Hey Blake take my food token

[LeviathanHatred]

no one remembers the cheat code? JAM +enter

[stillirise83]

Brings back lots of good memories.  Thanks for posting this.

[XxbluesboixX]

This game is classic! Except I can't play it on my laptop. Two reasons; I have Windows Vista and I'm not exactly sure how to play it and I don't have a Sound Blaster so my music doesn't play. GREAT game though! :D

[constancenoring]

You could use DOSBox though. Or you could use VDMSound to emulate the old soundblaster cards.

[TheCheezWizz]

I like when informants go NOOOOOOOOO.

[krhall78]

me too

i decompiled the sounds file and resampled all of the sound effects to wav format xD

[dalung]

Hey there, there's an alien thin in this that makes a freaky sound, strange request I know, but any chance anyone knows how I can get hold of a rip of that sound?

[dalung]

It's the one at 2:20!

[dalung]

And there's also two at 7:20.

[constancenoring]

You could record them yourself using a program like Audacity.

[dalung]

Ah could Audacity do that?

I don't have the game though unfortunately.

Thanks.

[krhall78]

yep xD

i can get the sounds for you xD

[dalung]

Well I had to rip it from somewhere else now, but how can you get it?  Thanks.

[krhall78]

VSWAP.BS6 <--- open with goldwave with these paramaters.

7333Hz 8Bit Mono Unsigned

and then Bingo xD

[dalung]

Uhhh excuse me if i'm being backwards here but I don't quite understand??

[krhall78]

by opening that file i can play the sounds and copy them to new files and save them in .wav format.

[dalung]

OH, is that one of the game files? I don't have the game anymore. I just had it once on an old PC cause it was already on there.

[krhall78]

yep thats the audio data file.

[dalung]

Oh right, yeah, I don't own the game anymore unfortunately.

[Wolfgirl1998]

Can you get me one too please? Just either personal message me in my channel or become my friend and do that so I can give you my email address. ^_~

[reala9865]

Hey constancenoring, you missed a secret area.

Push one of the walls on the bottom left near where you started.

You'll find a plasma sphere.

[Gggmanlives]

Good times. Apogee were the shit back in the day.

[AuthentiekeRebhuhn]

Ah, the amount of hours I wasted on this game!

I remember that on Veteran Agent, this game is insanely hard; meeting those Star Troopers around the 5 minute mark would have meant instant death then.

Nice videos, keep up the good work!

[FANADICALCOWHEAD]

i have this game on a cd but it broke so can you tell me where i can download this game

[Otacon237]

limewire

[nephew455]

is it still possible to download this game?

[Ry070688]

The Shareware version of this game is still avavilable for download.

[nephew455]

really, do u know if will it work right away or will I need to dl a bunch of other programs too

[Ry070688]

Download DOSBox.

[nephew455]

sweet thx man

[NDW85]

You know, I think you may have a missed a secret passage.

[LordGrandKaiser]

Man, I remember this game. Some of Blake Stone's secret rooms were insane!
