There's always that one neuralize did for his project.

But to be fair, we cant do a spring box, because spring isn't a game its an engine, so I assume you'll be wantign a Balanced Annihilation box or a CA box?

Maybe a split box, with a small paragraph next to a lot of the larger mods. We could have one for the *A mods, one for gundam, one for EE, one for KP, one for a few others I keep forgetting >__>

I was bored, and I need an excuse to show my mod.

But then Half life doesnt use an engine called the orange box does it?

People don't buy game engines, they buy games, and putting all our mods on a single box for the sake of it is an insult to our modders.

Why shouldn't CA get its own box set? Why shouldn't Gundam be considered a game in its own right?

I think we should do it the per mod way anyway as we'll get prettier box sets out of it, and possibly promotional media for the modders, whereas a kernel panic advert push cant use a spring box set because its shared with 3 or 5 other games..

Because most projects to this day are still fundamentally TA game design with some custom content. And most people still see it that way.

What if we just made box-art for each game then, people?

I've made box-art, twice. I'm not very good at it, but I might have a go at it again some day. Kernel Panic could actually use images from game for effective box-art. Everybody else will need to embellish a little.

As hot as the infantry textures in S44 are, you can't stare into the haunted eyes of a Soviet soldier as he is gunned down by a German.

I could probably go and draw something up, for mine. The rest of you are on your own >__>
