OMG! What is that? One thing for sure is I hope it’s friendly. Hey maybe it’s just some guy that spent too many hours at the gym pumping up a bunch of already over-pumped muscles. That’s likely just a pointy hat he is wearing but I don’t know what those other things sticking out of his back are. Angel wings maybe or some kind of unusual and unfortunate birth defect?
Man what is that nasty stench that’s all around him? Does anyone besides me smell the distinctly foul odor of open sores and rotting milk? Whatever it is, it seems to be seeping from this repulsive man mountain. His voice is like the roar of a dozen freight trains and attracts what looks like an army of the dead. I don’t know about you but I think I’m going to do my best to try and steer clear of this walking, talking steroid factory and his decomposing minions.
The Fourth Mystery Image has been released!
Hang on to your hats and just wait until you see this tasty treat. Any guesses to who this curvaceous cutey can be? We will give you a hint. You might not remember but you have heard from this gorgeous young lady before.
We can tell you love is in the air when it comes to this bodacious babe. Wedding bells might even be ringing. This eye-catching little sweetie might be a bit skinny but she is no stick-in-the-mud either. This dazzling darling is very agile and can put up a good fight to get what she wants. She proves that she’s really got the moves and is more than willing to show them off. We have to say there are not too many guys who wouldn't be more than proud to be seen with such a stunning beauty on his arm.
Well have you guessed who it is yet? We at RWS are working hard to make sure you can see first-hand if you guessed correctly. Will romancing this beauty result in Paradise Lost?
The Third Mystery Image Appears! Eight left to go!
Okay, no matter how long and hard you look at this picture, we know you are never going to be able to guess who this is. This guy shoots straight and fast and can be a dangerous man to handle. He may be totally inflexible when it comes to getting his own way. As stiff as he is, a little stroking has been known to calm him down. Want more of a clue? The ladies love this pleasantly plump guy. He is a real sharp dresser when it comes to his golden jewelry. He also may be found on occasion wearing some pretty snappy raincoats.
Have you guessed yet? Oh shoot, I guess we can give you a bit more of a hint since we don’t want you to be totally stumped. This is one character who really has the balls to get out there and get the job done. You can be sure he will be making some slick moves and getting lots of action in Paradise Lost.
The Second Paradise Lost Mystery Image has been released!
As we promised, it's time for another little update to let you see what’s happening at RWS. Just a small teaser to get you going and make you a tiny bit more excited for the release of Paradise Lost.

Now who could that diminutive fellow be I wonder? Have you got the teensiest bit of an idea? You can make your best wee guess but your still just going to have to wait a short time to find out.
You know even a little bitty character in our games usually plays a big role. There really are no minuscule roles when it comes to Paradise Lost. Being small in stature doesn’t mean their temper is also microscopic and believe me, a pint-sized character is nothing to trifle with.
Paradise Lost Mystery Image #1 has been released!
We know you have all been waiting for what seems like a very long time but you really won’t have to wait much longer for Paradise Lost to be released on Steam so let your imaginations run wild. In the mean time we thought you might like to enjoy a little artistic rendition of what you might possibly expect to find in Paradise Lost. Anticipation is part of the fun so we have actually decided to let you have a tiny peek at what’s in store for you with some great poster style art work. Running With Scissors has decided to display a new picture every day or so until the big day just to add a little spice to the event. Stay tuned to this space for new images! To kick things off, the first mystery character! The Fatty!

POSTAL 2 Halloween Update (1416)
Happy Halloween, everyone! We've been busy putting together a special treat for you. For the duration of the holiday, you can play in nighttime versions of the POSTAL 2 single player maps! The citizens of Paradise are in costume, and we've also arranged for some ghastly visitors, so grab the pitchfork out of your shed and prepare to greet them POSTAL style!
As you may already know, we've also been hard at work on Paradise Lost, the upcoming expansion pack for POSTAL 2. In the process, we've enhanced the POSTed development kit and squashed quite a few bugs as well! So put on your modding hat and feast your eyes on our complete changelist at the Running With Scissors forum. Some of the biggest changes include:
Fix for audio cutting off when pausing the game
Fix for crouching NPCs being immune to headshots
Fixes for various display glitches

Helpful descriptions of properties in POSTed's Object Properties window
"Play Map From Here" feature added to POSTed
Ability to select multiple files at once for upload to Steam Workshop
Several new editor hotkeys to streamline your map building
New actor and scripted sequence classes

Mod authors, please test your content with the new 1416 patch. If you experience issues you may have to recompile, as some of the UnrealScript source has changed. There will be a new UnrealScript source file landing in your copy of POSTed shortly, you can recompile under this source. If you have trouble compiling please contact me on the Workshop forums.
Additionally, Steam Trading Cards are now LIVE for POSTAL! Pick up a copy if you haven't already and enjoy the game with Steam Trading Card support.
Thanks for all your support. Now stop reading this and go have fun playing or modding! And don't forget to tell your friends to buy POSTAL 2 if they haven't already - it's on sale this weekend!
We've released a small update for POSTAL 2 multiplayer that fixes the uplink to the Master Server after the GameSpy shutdown. Now you can share the pain without having to tweak your INI file!
Happy fragging!
POSTAL 2 1415 Hotfix 2 Released
We've released a hotfix for POSTAL 2 today! The hotfix resolves an issue with custom music not playing back properly in Steam Workshop items. Additionally, we've gone ahead and taken care of that "floating Champ" problem you might have noticed in the intro cutscene. Enjoy!
POSTAL 2 1415 Hotfix 1 Released
Happy Friday! Here's a hotfix for POSTAL 2 1415 that addresses a few glitches and issues.
POSTAL 2
Resolved an issue where the player could get stuck in the obstacle course in the Taliban Training Camp on Sunday.
Resolved an issue causing inventory items to disappear if the player collected too many cats and/or donuts.
Resolved a rare crash-to-desktop issue involving police officers.
Firing mode display for Glock and MP5 moved near the ammo display in the HUD.
Resolved an issue where dynamic fluid surfaces would disappear under certain circumsances.
The Custom Map option under Options has been removed, as its functionality is duplicated by the Workshop Browser.
Reduced the zombie kill requirement in Vince's House on Sunday.
Resolved an issue in Vince's House on Sunday where killing one zombie after the house is breached would count for several kills.
Resolved an issue where not all weapons would be taken from the player at the Military Base on Sunday.
Workshop Support
Custom tags have been removed due to glitches. Unfortunately, they are not likely to make a return. Any items with custom tags will have those tags removed, and any "glitched" tags will be removed and fixed.
Music file support added! You can now include custom OGG tracks, which will be played back with SongThings or level music settings.
Download status is a bit more informative.
"Reset" button added to Workshop Browser. This resets all added modifiers and changes the game mode back to POSTAL 2. Use this if you get in over your head and add too many mods!
Downloaded items are no longer deleted automatically if unsubscribed. This resolves issues with multi-user support, and with saved games becoming inaccessible due to removing Workshop items that were used in a saved game. To permanently delete these items from your hard disk, use the "Purge Workshop" menu option in Options.
You will be warned if you attempt to upload a Workshop item that cannot be played automatically by the end-user. As a reminder, it is highly recommended to properly script texture and sound replacements when possible -- requiring manual installation of mods defeats the purpose of the Steam Workshop.
POSTed Development Kit
WaterVolumes can now be placed normally, without having to resort to undocumented editor tricks
Volumes now color-coded based on purpose
Toggling the Real-Time Preview now resets all emitters and kills all active particles
Added ACTION_Stand for scripted sequences.
Gimp pawn now added correctly via actor toolbar icons.
Auto-saved maps are now saved to your Saves folder, meaning they will be backed up to the Steam Cloud.
Pressing Shift-1 through Shift-4 will let you change viewport arrangements on the fly.
BSP toggle switch added to viewport toolbar.
Toggle Paths removed from right-click menu, redundant.
Enjoy the updates and keep those Workshop mods coming! We have some more tutorials headed your way, so stay tuned.
