I think the definition of mods has changed a lot since I started. It was about 13 years ago when I got into the modding scene, but it doesn't feel like it. People now class changing an ini file as a mod, for me that just doesn't class as a mod. I remember joining moddb 10 years ago! It was full of some really ambitious mods, mostly half life 2. Just makes you realise how long the source engine has lasted.

My advice for those just starting is never give up! It's so easy to give up on a project, it takes so much dedication to stick it at. Staying motivated is definitely the hardest part, but that's where places like this come in so handy. Having people give feedback on your work can be a massive motivation.

For those youngsters who want to learn. Wherever you decide to start, code, graphics, modelling, sound or whatever. Commit and devote yourself to it. Don't be afraid to ask for help or look at other people's work. Don't be too ambitious and try and make the next counter strike. Make things for the hell of it, it's all experience. You'll know when your proficient when you begin to understand your area almost inside out.

Don't do it for the money, do it for the love of it.

Davias,

Copying the files stopped it from bombing out, but there was another message, something to do with mysql, which doesn't make sense. I think it could possibly be a problem with perl.

When I activate the shader in game in teh console it says Post_Seia is an unkown shader just the same as yours and i get a white line across the screen.

Unreal, the cry engined may look nice, but the feel of the game when you play it is terrible. It would need a lot of work to just make it feel good.

While there are alot of games coming out which are just clones with a different coat on. The same goes for mods, and the a lot of mods die.

I voted No, simply because mods cannot really compete, due to resources that the pro developers get. That doesn't mean they are the best games no, but it helps alot, and it means the standard of these games tends to be higher on average. If I was to name my top 5 games, I don't think a mod would be in there.

YAY

download the source dedicate server. Once done, locate steamclient.dll in the bin folder of the source dedicated server.

Copy this into the bin folder in the kzmod folder. Should fix it, if that still does not fix it, edit the gameinfo.txt file in the kzmod folder, replace 220 with 215.

Cheers for the great game guys, so many maps!

well done guys

Turn vsync off and you'll most likely get it too.

made me laugh anyway

texture is nice, but the fingers are modelled a bit too straight...

methulah, they do not have all the right in the world to charge, at the end of the day, at current state dystopia is jsut a hl2 mod, and you are not allowed to sell a mod. Its in valves terms.

So unless valve actually buy dystopia out, then there won't be a charge.

A new alpha has been released with all game types implemented :)

Also fixed alot of little bugs, and smoothened out the gameplay, but still needs smoothing for public release.

But it's getting there!

I went to your site, and it had a nice logo, and to see your missing a coder, which is bringing the mod down, then i saw the little man in the logo leant against the T looking quite, sad. It made me sad...

What exactly would the coder have to do?

I will be wading through them as soon as I get a chance, And will contact potential applicants this week sometime.

Good luck everyone!

This looks great, just a shame its on half life 1 engine, but not much point in switching egnine snow is there. I'll still play this, looks like quality work to me!

And we had screenshots on the site, but our host messed us about sooo much, the site was down every 20 minutes, which is not practical.

IcIrIs The team has moved on. check out the new mod. There ismply wasn't demand for project relay, and our team was sufficient enough to make the idea work, so we are going with something fresh and new, that should hopefulyl gather more interest, and then we'll come bakc to Relay.

Moddb.com

in my opinion it is skilled but not as skilled as physical sport, as physical sport takes preperation outside the game, i.e physical fitness. Wheres as games just take preperation mainly in game.

Is football a game? and is football a sport? so whats the difference between a game and a sport?

.....

keep up the good work

Hmm i guess from what you read here, you could say that, but its not like that.

The game is going to be very team based, using your team will work to a great advantage, but you don't need them.

I will update this soon, currently just finishing the site, and creating models.

If you go to the website you will be able to see a bit more :)

dont have time, i would rather spend my time on making my mod :)

I guess you could say we died on our arse, we had no interest what so ever, alot of people quit cuz they were too busy, we got flamed for not being original we got messed arround with hosting, so we decided to stop this and start soemthing new!

Check out our new mod called obstacle, its orignal, which hopefulyl should be mor epopular, then maybe we can make project relay in the future?

As djsp said, the first deathmatch map is coming along, but we also need everything else to be done aswell.
We need other team mebers aswell, if you are interested on working on the mod check out the website for more information, and leave us a note on the forums!

yip, we'll give these guys something to play, damn right.

Ok i dont mean to sound ignorant, but the mod leader of this mod is also in 4 other mods, one of them as a mod leader! Now to create a mod properly your mod leader cannot be leading other mods at the same time, and doing bits for other mods too! Or else he aint leading the mod properly. If this mods gonan be succesfull, and it does have some talented develepors in the team, they need to sort their priorities!

yippee airsoft total is back! nice one dudes!

its looking nice, although when the dude shoots his pistol, the animation is a bit wrong he isn't pointing his gun in the 3rd person mode. Or is that not a gun he fires at the guy?

Otherwise, looking good, better than i thought!
