Neat.

Part 7: Audio Design & User Interface:

Let me stress that what you see in these videos is only a fraction of the full mod. Compare the "Part 1: Artificial Intelligence" video to the full AI list that was released early for example, then apply that difference for each category. The only reason I've began merging categories in videos is because a video to focus exclusively on audio design for example wouldn't be very exciting.

So has this mod release really got delayed? You were saying something along the lines of delaying the mod since you don't have enough testers and the new video didn't come out till now, so I think it may have.

[6634f77b23cf6JDoran]

I hope it's not been delayed, but if it has then fair enough , Join USSS! posts regularly on here, and all we can ask of delayed projects is that there's the occasional post about it so we know that it's not been abandoned.

As a result of a lack of testers despite multiple requests GMDXv8.0's release has been set back to DEC 20th 2015.
It is not all bad news however: if you were eagerly awaiting to play GMDX you can send me a PM here or over on moddb to have access to what was intended to be today's release on the condition that you report any issues. Basically, I need more testers. It wouldn't be right releasing it without adequate testing.

A mod needs its community, so get behind GMDX! I would post this on a Deus Ex board but they've never really given a shit. SystemShock.org has been more of a home to it.

All the videos that demonstrate the sheer scale and design progression that is GMDX:

Part 1: Artificial Intelligence: https://youtu.be/rKHPtfammNY
Part 2: Player-Controlled Mechanics: https://youtu.be/ny0wLI-ZWOY
Part 3: Sim Systems and Effects: https://youtu.be/lsOoTF5TL0Y
Part 4: Weaponry: https://youtu.be/T-bSLkfzWYc
Part 5: RPG Systems: https://youtu.be/yrIPhQBRMfs
Part 6: Level Design & Graphics: https://youtu.be/bpzXECyTQJ0
Part 7: Audio Design & UI: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS-qj...
Part 8 will be released shortly

As a side note, ALL Military-type NPCs can now melee if you get up close:

GMDX has also gained a new team member! He's a talented artist that goes by the alias '"Barbeerian", and intends to aid GMDX fulfill its potential by adding a variety of new art: 2D textures, skins, models and animations.
Here's a shot of the very first asset contributed in its early creation stage, a helmet model:

I'm always looking for new team members to push Deus Ex at an accelerated rate and cover other fields of design, so if you're interested send a PM.

Apologies for the delay. Quality is important.

[6634f77b2421dDjant]

That's too bad to hear, but thanks for updating us.

Also the image links are in the wrong place. The helmet one should be second, and the one showing off enemies meleeing the player the first.

[6634f77b242f8Join2]

Sorted.

Fair enough, mate. You're not letting us down, so please don't think you are. We know you'll come through, and that any delays are necessary for the quality of the mod.

Quality is important.

Oh, how I wish that was the (honest) mantra of the games industry. Instead it seems to be "Gamers are idiots, so dumb down the games, release a stable(-ish) beta as the finished product to get to market early, bring out special editions that entice the extra-gullible with worthless stuff, and use DLC and season passes to take them for every penny"

There ain't no real money in honesty.

[6634f77b2502dvoodoo47]

amen to that.

anyway, seeing the last video, I've remembered an old inconsistency - it never seemed to be clear which doors could be pry opened (read: destroyed) with melee weapons. I'd assume GMDX has fixed this?

[6634f77b2511eJoin2]

Yep. Damage Threshold as seen in the video you just watched. Compare your weapon's damage stat to the door's DT.

[6634f77b251favoodoo47]

I am pleased.

Part 8: Preferences & Miscellaneous.

That's the final one.

Good news: GMDX has got into the nominations for the Top 100 mods of 2015. Bad news: Revision has got there too, and they're trying to ask for votes on Steam and ModDB: http://steamcommunity.com/games/dx-revision/announcements/detail/845912735332875622

http://www.moddb.com/mods/deus-ex-revision/news/moty-top-1002

Please try and vote for GMDX. You want good mods to get recognition, don't you?

Vote for GMDX here, it's under the "Deus Ex" tab: http://www.moddb.com/groups/2015-mod-of-the-year-awards/top100

[6634f77b255b6Join2]

Lol, relentless. Nevertheless, yes, I forgot to mention that GMDX had made top 100 in the MOTY voting popularity contest, so thanks to those who voted.

[6634f77b256a1JDoran]

I've just voted for GMDX on that new page. BTW, HL2 - The Closure, Goldeneye X, and Goldfinger 64 aren't listed on there, even though they are all eagerly awaited.

Merry Deus Exmas! We've got santa hats after all.

Thanks for this, mate. Downloading it now!

[6634f77b25d8cMarvin]

I really hope that this time, GMDX will finally get the recognition it deserves. I'm very happy to see how the mod turned out and will try to recommend it to as many DX veterans as possible. Hopefully, you can relax a bit and get some hard-earned rest.

[6634f77b25e87voodoo47]

this will have to wait 'till friday. *sigh*

Congratulations and superb work !

Interest for this mod has dropped from what it used to be on systemshock.org, and it isn't surprising as this community is dedicated to System Shock, not Deus Ex (even if they are blood brothers), but since there's been no word here since v8.0 release I'm just going to notify you what the verdict on GMDX is:

Aggregated review rating is 9.7/10.
Winner of Moddb's 2014 Mod of the Year Wordly Award.
Review excerpts:

"In conclusion this must be the one of most impressive mods done to Deus ex ever, if not The Mod one must have to really experience the game as it was intended."
-gbamabougou

"This is easily one of the best mods for any game I've ever played."
-jcelios

"I can honestly say that GMDX represents the definitive Deus Ex experience."
-Wildcat Phoenix

"Best Deus Ex mod ever released."
-Silenc3r

"GMDX is, essentially, the ultimate Deus Ex experience."
-jose21crisis

"This is easily one of the best mods ever made for the original Deux Ex."
-rubbalubbadubdub

I've also got a patch & Russian localization in the works.
