I am happy to announce that the map editor (do not mix up with mission editor, which has been in the game from day one) for Steel Storm: Burning Retribution has been released for Windows users. The shortcut for it is available in the Desura client's menu, along with a few new shortcuts that were missing previously.

As a pleasant surprise, I am revealing one of the early development videos of Steel Storm 2:


As more material will become available, I will open a separate account for the game on IndieDb. Meanwhile I will be posting news here. Thank you for your support with Steel Storm: Burning Retribution and if you haven't purchased Weapon Pack DLC for it, please do so as it adds a lot of fun to the game.

Oh, my bad x.x I did not know that a dedicated server is just a service lol. I had like 10 servers running but I thought it still did not work. <_<

Yeah, dedicated server runs "headless" (no rendering) so it would appear as terminal window (at least suppose to).

Make sure you edit .cfg files to give your server proper name to appear in the server browser.

Would you mind explaining why is that so? (Oh and, I own Burning Retribution, I just wanted an updated Episode 1 for archiving purposes.)

1. Because it was harming sales of Burning Retribution
2. Because it was redundant to have Ep1 and demo.

The purpose of Ep1 was to show people the game. Once demo emerged, it was doing a better job in introducing people to the game. You still can find Ep1 somewhere online.

Episode 1 has been merged into burning retribution. ". The best missions of Episode 1 were placed into a training campaign. The rest were split between Bonus Missions and Lost Missions campaign. "
cf: Desura.com

P.S.: And I just came here to see if the DLC is available on Desura now or not, and it still isn't. :(

The good: ========= -Polished: good graphics, sound and gameplay -Challenging enough without being too challenging. -Translated into a lot of languages and you can add your own. -Collaborative mission editor, also works while playing! -DRM-free -Uses GPLed darkplaces engine (also means you should be able to do lots of modding, additionally to the available in-game editor.) -Cross-platform. Runs natively (and perfectly) on GNU/Linux. The singleplayer alone is definitely worth the cheap price. If…
