Spring RTS Engine

Thanks guys.

The devs on this project rock pretty hard. Spring is hands down the best opensource game I know of.

To the top.

Sorry for bumping, if that's a problem here. But I think this is a legitimate question...

I'm especially interested in the status of linux-windows multiplayer.

Hi, What's the status of multiplayer on Linux? I'm aware that there are several AIs that may work on linux, but what's going on with the real meat of the game? * Does the lobby work? * Does the game work between Linux clients? * How close is fully synchronized multiplay between Mac, Windows and Linu...

Hi, I was involved in a 4 player FFA today on AA 2.1. I built seven berthas in the middle of Greenhaven and put them on "hold fire" as soon as they were built. When it came time to fire, they refused. They would not fire. I tried them in all fire modes (FAW, hold fire, return fire) and non...

The graphics engine is currently pretty damn beautiful, especially if you have shadows turned on. But there's a sore spot: trees look terrible. They look like random green blotches. What needs to be done to improve this? Is it textured tree models? If that's the case, I'd love to help. Someone let m...
