Spring RTS Engine

Hello all.

Most of you probably don't remember me... I haven't really been on these forums much.

I stopped playing Spring awhile ago, I'm not really sure why, I just got kind of bored with it...

But I've decided I would try my hand at Mod making for Spring, so I guess I should get better at playing first!

Anyways,

Hi.

Hello! We're glad to have you!

May I suggest an itinerary?
I think you should start with a few matches of BA to see how it's changed, check out CA and explore its plethora of features,and finish up with some of the cool IP free games like Evolution RTS and S:44, Gundam RTS, Expand and Exterminate, and Kernel Panic. This should give you a good idea of how the engine and its games have progressed, and some ideas of features to include in your mod.

Before you start modding, however, you may want to spend a while with an existing game's dev team, so as to get a good idea of how to make a good game. CA, S44, KP, and GRTS are always looking for determined, productive new modders.

I expect you'll be wanting to ask if there have been any recent advances?

That's a good idea, the only problem is I can never seem to find anyone with my skill level. Last I checked, there were many Pros about.

Also, I hadn't though of joining a dev team, but that's a very good idea. I can't script, but I can make some pretty good models. (especially low polly ) But how do I join a dev team?

I've been sort of keeping up with that, but sure, what's new?

Can you do proper model unwrapping? If so I might have a long and boring job for ya, but it's a fun team regardless (Evolution RTS btw)

#evolution in the lobby

inb4 hello im back have their been any recent advances

edit: fuck didnt see AF's post.

PFFFFFFT gundam is often a few noobs and dorne, raping, painfully raping you.

You need to be brought up to date with the latest advances. AF, can you help him out? I know you were in his position recently.

hiya army! wb

How skilled are you? I know that there are many newbies in the CA, BA, Evolution, and GRTS playerbases, and at least one pro in most of them as well (3/4ths of LCC plays CA exclusively).

Also, I hadn't though of joining a dev team, but that's a very good idea. I can't script, but I can make some pretty good models. (especially low polly ) But how do I join a dev team?

I myself do modelling and images for CA, among other things. if you want to get involved, join a game's channel (CA is #ca, s:44 is #s44, evolution rts is #evolution, Kernel panic is #kp, GRTS is #gundam) and have a chat with the devs.

Well, for one, a sub-meme involving AF asking about recent advances.

>ill be back

Were those your final words? Well save them- use them as a running gag.

Well, I haven't done much texturing work, and I'm not totally sure what model unwrapping is... But I might be able to do it, I would need to learn though.
I use Blender for most of my 3D projects.

What's up?

I'm not too skilled, I'm about rank 2. It would help so much if my router was set up for hosting.....

ok, I'll try that.

I don't think I had any last words... I just left, but that would be funny if I had said that, wouldn't it?

Hello!

This isn't my best work, but it kind of cool


(made in Blender)

This is for a Mod I'm working on for the game, Blockland (I'm a Lego fan )

hihi!

i like the spider; come and join us in #evolution when you have a chance if you'd be interested in contributing to our project... theres a ton of work to be done, and a lot of wiggle room as far as creating crazy designs goes.

any chance of a free copy of this :)?

looks fun to review and mess about with.

Well, if you mean a free copy of the game, then not really, the demo can still be fun though, and mods still work.

You can get the Bug Mod Here
