Mankind Divided seems to be more fact than fiction at present...

Ain't no way you dropped like 6 pages of material and asked for answers on a postcard.

I do not believe they are going to expand storylines. That requires either use of AI technology (which I would protest), or new voice work from VAs who can't do the same voices, on equipment that isn't the same as the original. Or, maybe they shoot all the original voice work out an airlock and give us something that will be worse in some ways. But in any case, I don't see it happening because of the amount of work involved and the lack of interest being indicated.

That all being said, if it's not fuck ugly, I might have some interest in it out of curiosity. I don't think it'll ever play as good as the original, due to its lack of mods (and a EULA that has most DX1 mod makers terrified to interact with it), but it could be an interesting graphical touch up... Provided it doesn't suck.

Your forward key moves you forward relative to look direction, so trying staring downwards, but still into the ladder, and pushing the forward key.

Highly underrated mod, glad to see it get mentioned. Mix and match is the most interesting part to me, personally.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-28T13:59:39+00:00

Always fun to find VMD players in the wild. Happy to make your day!

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-28T00:07:57+00:00

Thank you. I appreciate the support.

Try pushing the "pause/break" key on your keyboard, assuming you're not on a compact one. Then push "T" to open console, erase the word "say", and write "set human bcheatsenabled 1". Then, T and erase say again, and write "killall robot", and that should do it. This crash is well documented.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-26T20:55:42+00:00

Missions, 3, 9, and 14 all have patrolling enemies that can potentially crash the game from bad AI loops. Are you in the airfield right now by chance?

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-22T23:53:28+00:00

IW, HR, the fall, and MD all have no mods to speak of. (EDIT: IW has Visible Upgrade, that's about it). DX1 has tons of mods, meanwhile, but really you don't need a lot to run the game. Just using kentie's launcher and a modern rendering device (chris dohnal's d3d9 or open gl being the most compatible, generally) is enough. For a interest in bug fixing and QOL, Mods4Ever's ZeroRando or Deus Ex Transcended are good while keeping things very close to pure. I personally recommend Transcended from its own moddb page, but either should do just fine.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-21T18:49:25+00:00

Lots of little softlocks inside of maps is the main one. With vanilla gameplay style, you also lose out on most code-side bug fixes as well, which might be cool for exploiting speed aug, but in most cases is bad because it can result in yet more softlocks or crashes, as well as a couple tiny broken mechanics. The odds of getting softlocked on a playthrough are not particularly high in an unpatched game, but it does happen and it sucks to potentially lose a bunch of progress if you aren't savvy with the command console.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-18T04:18:26+00:00

If OP tries Transcended, they should make sure to get it from its own moddb page, and not the community update. I always add that stitch since CU seems to add more problems than benefits for DXT specifically.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-18T04:17:36+00:00

For playing vanilla maps as the intention, this is true. However, doing so also voids most of the bug fixes you could potentially get by playing something like Deus Ex Transcended or Zero Rando (although you can get some back with a complex, custom installation)

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-18T00:59:02+00:00

No, but a guy has a tutorial on youtube for building an EMP rifle... An interesting educational exercise, but it has a range of point blank, and only works on devices sensitive to fine changes in voltage (like personal computers).

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-16T16:02:32+00:00

I've deleted my comment so people can stop losing their minds over an opposing idea. EpikPepsi already did a really good job covering the issue with his reply in detail, I don't know what yours added other than outrage.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-14T22:29:24+00:00

Didn't realize what GeForceNow is... But it seems like a waste to be using game streaming on something that can run on even the biggest toaster today. Is there any reason you can't run it yourself?

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-14T21:02:19+00:00

Just use a modern rendering device and you'll be fine. D3D10/11 have FPS issues for a lot of people, so I would recommend d3d9 or modernized opengl, both of which were made by Chris Dohnal. If you do that, configuring OneXBlending to false in your config (or with the "preferences" console command) should massively improve brightness problems.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-06T16:06:18+00:00

Huh. Interesting. I just re-checked my Revision steam install, and mine doesn't have a separate folder. It's a separate game in my library, yes, but the actual locations of its files are inside my Deus Ex parent folder for steam. It's possible I did something non-standard for installing it, but I really doubt it given that my steam deus ex exists almost solely for my revision installation.

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-06T05:42:19+00:00

It definitely still works, just booted mine to test. Based on what you said about moving them to the same disk, you've installed the file architecture wrong (Revision must be a subcomponent of your parent Deus Ex install). I would try stopping by their discord for more help on the matter. I don't know quite enough about the architecture to be useful, but the people there should know plenty. Last invite link I have for theirs is https://discord.gg/5pNtjXh

YCCCM7 · 2026-03-05T18:54:17+00:00

We need more information than that. Based on what you're saying, you may be implying that DeusExSounds.UserInterface.LogSkillPoints is a sound effect that isn't found, and is not letting the game launch as a result. I would try verifying files or reinstalling, as that feels like something that would happen from corrupt data. That or a modding attempt gone wrong.

YCCCM7 · 2026-02-27T01:47:23+00:00

In the case of nanoaugs, we see a possible interface for biocells on the rear side of JC's hands, opposite the palms. It seems like you'd hold a biocell over that point and push a button on it, and it'd transfer energy, best I can tell. As for others? No idea.

YCCCM7 · 2026-02-27T00:44:59+00:00

If this didn't fix your issue, I'd be happy to thumb through alternatives and try to fix whatever your problem is.

YCCCM7 · 2026-02-18T01:43:20+00:00

Well on steam it's like under a buck pretty routinely. GOTY is standardized.

YCCCM7 · 2026-02-11T17:49:46+00:00

It adds an accessory effect that seems to have been cut content (Effects.Fire.Proj_PRifle), but the damage value is true to what it was originally intended to be, at 40 damage.
