This is a remake of TA. It uses a whole new engine to make the game in full 3D. It uses the old TA (OTA) units, but with a mod called XTA. It also has other mods, such as OTA, Uber Hack, Absolute Annihilation, World Destruction, Final Frontier, and a few others. The abundance of mods shows how easy it is to mod the game. But if you wanted to get into modding this game, right now is probably not the best time. We are in the middle of a few major changes, so its not the best time to start. Mabey in a few weeks, when the new model format is officially released.

For more info on modding, go ask in the Mods forum. YOu are much more likley to get answers in there.

Spring is mostly about changing the engine of TA, and reusing the units of TA.

So far all spring mods are based on TA mods, or a least on TA third party units.

There are other sites dedicated to TA modding:
http://www.tauniverse.com
http://www.tafansite.com
http://www.planetannihilation.com
http://www.tadesigners.com

However, the activity level is very low, and save on TAU, you'll speak nearly alone on the forums.

What are you looking for exactly?

I think I'll direct you to that TA FAQ anyway.
