Tremulous is a free, open source game that blends a team based FPS with elements of an RTS. Players can choose from 2 unique races, aliens and humans. Players on both teams are able to build working structures in-game like an RTS. These structures provide many functions, the most important being spawning. The designated builders must ensure there are spawn structures or other players will not be able to rejoin the game after death. The overall objective behind Tremulous is to eliminate the opposing team. This is achieved by not only killing the opposing players but also removing their ability to respawn by destroying their spawn structures.

Darklegion development is proud to announce the immediate availability of a Tremulous 1.2 beta-release.

Boom! Run away! Run away!
Zzzzap! Aliens

Tremulous is a free open source game that blends team based FPS with RTS. Players can choose from 2 unique races: aliens and humans. Players on both teams are able to build bases from a handful of different structures. These structures provide a multitude of functions, such as allowing players to respawn after dying. The builders must ensure there are spawn structures or other players will not be able to rejoin the game after death. Other structures can be built to provide some amount of automated base defence, or heal wounded players and much more...


Changes:
The latest 1.2 Beta includes a ton of gameplay updates and bug fixes.
The full list of gameplay updates are in this thread:  Tremulous.net

Availability:
The installers are available for all major operating systems at Tremulous.net

How to Install:
For all platforms other than Mac OS X, this is an update to 1.1, so an installation of Tremulous 1.1 is required. If you do not have Tremulous installed, download and install Tremulous 1.1. Then download and run the 1.2 Beta installer.

So there you go, that's all the necessary information you need to play the new 1.2 Beta! We'd love to see you in-game, every person that plays provides us with important feedback which contributes to making Tremulous better than ever! The more players that play the beta, the quicker we can make sure that all the major bugs are ironed out, which means we can release 1.2 sooner!

The human solder is olive green.

It would be absurd if we couldn't use the blue hues, just because another game uses them.

Well, I apologize for the mistake, but he did say "use the same textures". Even so, you might want to change some of the color patterns, etc., because people associate that light blue with the space marines from NS. Perhaps use more reds and greens i your lighting too.

The textures that Tremulous uses (mostly Evillairs Evil sets (mostly 6 and 8) and Shaderlabs Majestic set) were not made by the NS team... they are, in fact, (gasp) public domain.

If you think Tremulous is copying the 'game world' of NS, read the rest of the posts here, and search the NS forums for 'tremulous'. There have been a number of threads bringing this point up over and over, some even thinking that legal action should be taken. Of course almost all of these threads have been locked...

I'm getting rather tired of Tremulous being branded as a rip-off, and that the years and years of work should be put to a stop whenever it tries to get some publicity. Tremulous began work before Natural Selection was popular, or even anywhere near a releasable state. The first time the team had even heard of it was when one of those previously mentioned threads was started.

Okay, i b0rked the code on the previous post, but seriously, you might want to stop the project. That, or make something original.

Maybe somebody should take a closer look at tremulous before saying that.

The only way they can look similar is because NS and Tremulous both use the same textures.

Dude, thats stupid.

Can I use the NS textures, technology, game world, concept art or anything else for any purpose other then Natural Selection?

No. The team has worked very hard to create the NS universe. Please don't e-mail or post asking to use our textures, models or technology for other projects. You can, however, use any artwork from NS for an NS fansite, or NS community resource. You may never use anything from NS to make money, nor may you ever state or imply that any NS assets were made by anyone other then the NS team. If in doubt, e-mail flayra@overmind.org before using anything. Any inappropriate use of any NS content will be pursued aggressively.
