The bit where he kicks the persian messenger is.

The rest of it is pretty much either extreme stylised violence or perverted sex scenes. Some of it is pretty crap but its a good film for a laugh. If your expecting much more though it will probably dissappoint.

You guys did d/l right? Cus my download counter is still at 0 :-\

Says 1 for me.

You should make another version, shoving the messenger down a pit with randomised obstacles and stuff for him to hit. Kinda like some of the maps in UT2004 with random pits of death. Much ragdoll fun to be had

Ahh well I knocked up the ragdoll engine in about half an hour so its not very extensive... it only supports collisions with the floor, not obstacles. Maybe I'll make another some time.

This is hilarious. You should definitely consider making this into a game, like the penguin/yeti game--players could send their distances to a highscore table online. And my favorite is when he kicks the persian in the nuts, sending him five feet up in the air, but with no distance.

If you develop the rag doll physics more, you should write an article about how you did it--I'm very curious to know

Posted by Neuro

Haha I didn't know there were spikes at the end! I had the guy get kicked in super slowmo, fly straight to the end without hitting the floor and having his head impaled on the bottom spike

When you get a good engine, you could make a series of different situations and put them all in a screensaver.

I love this more than I probably should

Posted by ben mercer

Heheh the spikes were put there just because I didn't thought flying off the side of the screen when he reached the end of the map would be a bit boring.

If you're familiar with the 4chan/ytmnd edits that made it famous, I'd say the best idea would be to put a solid brick wall at the end of the map, which would make him explode if he hits it.

Sometimes I'll be downstairs eating and I'll hear a muffled "THIS IS SPARTA!" ... *THWACK* *CRUNCH* *BANG* *BIFF* *CRACK*

Then I have to go and turn the sound off.
