Huh. Really strange. Well, I'll see what I can discover when I get around to it.

No error message. Crashes upon selecting or making a save when booted with workshop, the modloader, or when installed manually. Tried with Intel integrated and NVIDIA graphics. Deleting just the Textures folder stopped the crashing but having a textures folder with nothing in it doesn't. Funky!

And thanks for the timely response!

Hey, thanks for letting me know about the problem. If you have no unpacked/modded files inside your theendisnight folder and the mod still crashes, then I don't know what's causing this. Maybe using a fresh save file (if you aren't doing that) could help.

I'll be doing a small Remake update after the release of Shattered Spectrum, so that's when I'll be able to look deeper into this problem and maybe find out what's happening. Haven't encountered it myself.

Does the game crash with no error message at all? Sometimes TEiN tells you what caused a crash, other times it doesn't.

Hi NotWendy! Newbie TEiN player here. I'm having trouble with the mod-- its crashing on file select! Is this something you've seen before? Base game and your other mods boot just fine.

actually, its libel

This is slander, Gloom is still purple-ish.

why did u unpurple gloom

oh, you're right! thanks, but yeah I would change it so those two elements are not inside each other. I didn't recognize the floating skull thing (floast?)

btw, (aside from this maybe) outstanding job with this mod, I loved playing through it so far :)

The screen does work. There's a floast you can jump onto near the edge of the large agon. A bit hard to see. I'll look into adjusting the visuals on that screen.

I don't understand Gloom 7. Can you confirm the screen works correctly? Is there supposed to be some sort of switch? Maybe I'm just blind

I used to mod launcher and it works, but thank you.

After extracting the archive in your game's folder, do you launch the game using the "Play The End is Nigh" option? Because "Play With Mods" is only used for launching mods via the Workshop launcher.

how do I get achievments with this, I downloaded the archive, pressed browse local files on steam, extracted it there, but it doesnt work. :(

Ah, stinky, that's alright. Thank you for responding, and as many others have said before, your passionate and well executed work on this remake is phenomenal. Wish you the best in whatever project you take on next!

I wish I could add an option for that, but no, that's not something that can be done.

This was probably mentioned somewhere at some point, but is there any way to make it so the carts, specifically the glitched and grief ones, instantly reset the cart so I don't have to constantly open and close it while attempting the unbreakable achievements? It's just extremely tedious and a big reason why I haven't committed to getting Dead God.

awesome

Thank you! I appreciate the comment.
Also, I have to mention that version 15.26 broke the tumor in SS Exodus 11. It's fixed now, in 15.27. If anyone's playing the non-Workshop version and downloads updates manually, this last one is important. For those who simply subscribed to the mod on the Workshop the update will be installed automatically, as always.
I also fixed another long-standing bug related to a collect_all console command, but that's whatever. Mostly a quality of life thing for other modders.

You truly made this mod as the most definitive way to play the game. Thank you for your contribution and efforts, they aren't ignored in the slightest!

A couple of surprise updates have been released in the past two days. I reworked a few badly designed tumors, made other tiny quality of life changes to gameplay, fixed more bugs, and made background decorations in Retrograde and Arid Flats slightly more varied.

You're welcome! Enjoy.

this is really awesome, you added so much detail, I'm def gonna play this version from now on thank you!!

This album is fire

Sorry it took a while for me to get this done, but here you go. An album with before/after images for most of the chapters. Includes some comments from me.

could I see before and after pics pls? i wanna look at the differences <3

Good news, I've managed to find a couple more things worth fixing. Most notably, the animations of two descender NPCs in Arid Flats and Machine (thanks for the re-animated sprites, SurrealDude) and errors in the long story of the Wall of Sorrow ghost. The update is out.

This is a very fair point of view. There's a certain satisfaction in getting your achievements in the original version of the game, even if Remake's gameplay changes are relatively minor. I've earned my achievements way before making this mod.
The Remake does affect speedrunning quite a bit. Some skips are gone as a consequence of levels getting redesigned. Some cycles in other levels are actually faster. So the time it takes to complete the game using speedrun routes is roughly the same, but Remake runs would have to be their own category. Which is simply not worth it.
It's still FUN to speedrun the Remake, that part hasn't changed. But if you intend to compare your results to those of other players, better stick to the original version.

This looks sweet, but I fear it will affect the gameplay too much. I may try it after completing the main game. Even if this mod ends up objectively fairer and still as hard as the game, there’s a part of me who’ll always think “hey, you should get achievements as Edmund McSadistic intended”… So I’ll use it for my future runs.
By the way, how much does this affect speedrunning?

Released another small update earlier today. Mostly visual changes and a few insignificant bug fixes.
But I also completely reworked Remake-exclusive transition levels in the Machine. They should now be a lot more similar to the levels Edmund designed.

Released a small update. One bug fix related to a specific Arid Flats level and a bunch of decoration changes in Arid Flats' secrets. Some of those levels had too many plants in the background, compared to the main path.

Good luck, hope you enjoy the experience.

Hello, just saw your project. I've been torn on this game for a long time, so I'll give this a try.

Thank you, Zerk, that is very sweet. Sorry for a late reply, I've been busy with my other project.
I'm glad to know you appreciate my work this much and I hope you'll have a good time with this mod once you're done earning achievements in the base game.

Thank you so much for your work, I will not use it until I obtain all achievements or at least most of them excepting iron god or things like that, anyways I thank you because I can see the dedication and hours you put in this game, knowing that almost no one plays this xD, this is true love for the game, thanks for your work to the community (and also sorry for my bad english)

Just released more significant visual changes to Flats and Gloom. Some of those were forgotten fixes, some are actually new. No gameplay changes.
I also updated the direct download link in the blog post for those who want to play the Remake and still earn Steam achievements. The blog now contains a link to the latest version of the mod.

Tested the rest of the game again. Found and fixed various visual issues in Arid Flats, Gloom, Blight, and Ruin. That should be all. Hopefully.
If something doesn't seem right to you or if you encounter a bug, leave a comment. I'll look into it.

Turns out some of the Wall of Sorrow fixes got lost between updates at one point. I don't know which update broke the area again, but those fixes have now been reimplemented.
Pretty much all of those were decoration tweaks.
I will check other areas in case other important changes got lost the same way, but so far everything else looks fine to me.

Don't forget to like and subscribe.

Hey, it's me again. It's been a while. I played some TEiN recently and found a few more small things I wanted to change in the Remake.
The update is out. I redecorated some levels (5 of them), changed the Remake-exclusive Hollows NPC dialogue, and added an exit warp to the cart secret in Wall of Sorrow.

Literally the normal game but better, if you've yet to touch TEiN this is the best way to experience it. The author obviously cares about preserving the integrity of the original release while ironing out the kinks and has even gotten feedback from McMillen.

I have done the testing and added a new section to the mod's description, addressing the question about earning achievements. It's near the bottom, above the "Relevant links" section.
In short, yes, there is a way to get achievements with Remake installed.

I don't think Steam achievements can be earned if you install the mod from the Workshop, but I can provide a direct download with which achievements should work. I need a bit more time to test that, if you don't mind. Will let you know when I have a clear answer.

No!! You toottalllly should beat mom's heart first 3 times to unlock achievements!

can i still earn achievements while playing with this mod?

Same as fairway

Haha, thank you. Have fun exploring TEiN's world once again.

We all appreciate the amount of work you've put into this, great work.

And now I have an excuse to jump back into the game again! :D

Updated some of the glitch carts. Let's say this was the last big update. The Remake is done. Don't forget to vote on it on this page. It helps.
Also, I'm still taking feedback. If anything else in the game needs fixing, let me know, we'll sort it out.

Finished the Tower cartridge and all cutscene audio should be more clear now.
I also edited Pus-Man's intro card. Should look much better. And the water in Dead Racer is easier to see through.
I'll be making some more changes to glitch carts in the near future and then that's it, we're done with the Remake.
