B-R-E-E-D: Space Above and Beyond

Breed mod | TBD

"We thought we were alone. We believed the universe was ours, until one night in 2063 on an Earth colony 6 light years away they struck... and now we are at war. My name is Lieutenant Colonel TC McQueen. I'm an In Vitro, a race of artificially gestated humans. I command a marine corp squadron, the 58th. They call us the 'Wild Cards'. We fight when called - in space, on land... and at sea. To lose this war means more than defeat. To surrender is to never go home. All of us must rise to the call above and beyond". That may stir strong memories, as it was the text that McQueen spoke in the intro against the back screen of the colony ship and its destruction by the chig forces... a very powerful moment. One that is also re-constructed through the mercury engine in the opening cut-scene sequence to B : SAAB. Though the series only lasted one season, it has gained a cult following and now is still re-run on the Sci Fi networks. SAAB was a milestone for its time in terms...

Greets!
Big news everyone! Last night we finished the permission form negotiation with Thursday from H:SAAB. Thursday was the creator of several models upon which we will base our modifications on for our own breed models. Included are the light tank, the bomber, the chig fighter, and others. Now that we have permission we will begin to assemble a list of modifications that will be required to allow these units to "live" in our own engine's world. This will include a slight remodel to higher poly, adding Breed Physics Scripting (something required as breed has an interesting system regarding their aircraft engine thrust and movement in general), giving each unit more detail (i.e moving turrets, working doors, working landing gear), and all new textures. Work shall begin within the next week on these models and will be completed by SABIN, a team of 13 modelers to whome we have planned to outsource these models. The SABIN team are currently awaiting HW2, and in the mean time they are hooked on to us as our outsource modeler team that we can send our models for revision!

Furthermore we have exciting news regarding Thursday. He has plans on creating a high poly "flagship" model for the chig faction, that being the chig fighter. A completely new unit from the SAAB master, who could ask for more! As the chig fighter is featured most prominantly in this mod, this is indeed amazing news and we are all jumping up and down here!

Expect to see the fruits of our work soon!
