This is a Dance Mod using the UE2.5 Engine. Complete and ready to use. Its also THE 1st Virtual DDR type of Mod created using the Unreal Engine itself. A New edition is also being discussed and We'll be asking for contibutors to help advance the development for the New edition release. Streaming Music using shoutcast which is being looked at for revision, and DJ'ing abilities as well. This is "THE 1st known NightClub Mod for Unreal technology. Using your wasd keys to compete to the music. It was complete but there is SO much more that can be done here. Like adding E-DewPower drinks for enhanced dancing skills and endurance. for the player. E-notes to slip the DJ to play certain music. Also to improve typing speeds as well for the player's own abilities at the keyboard.

He's shown a of talent and this is just the tip of the work he has planned so far for this map. We’ll look forward to more and will be giving it you live as it happens and will announce the release of this map very soon. Also we have an IRC Channel that went live as of 3/19/05 at Enterthegame.com. We'd like to thank them for allowing us the use of their server was a well as to keep Members and The Public to come by hang out and Ask Questions and such from us while we work and develop the mod to it full potential. Feel free to swing by the profile and leave your comments and Questions there, as we'll do our best to answer them. Till then have an excellent closing end to This Month of March.

Hey there. I was wondering if this is a conversion mod or a add on stand alone mod for UT2004 Cause i dont like to much the conversion mods cause i dont want to ruin the standard UT2004 game just want to add some extra stuff in it is it possible with this mod? thnx for reading this comment & perhaps answering as well
Ok People, thats right we're starting to dust off the shelves and starting to clean the shop up a byte as we're moving in and opening the project back up. There are some positions that might need filling but mapping and musical talent are filled but will be expandable. Modeling new players are going to be quite soon as well. So please stay tuned all.
We're still in the process or retooling the code a bit.
So years after I had to bail out of this mod because my job had me basically living in a truck for months at a time, I find out it's still going strong . . . one day after I sign on with another mod team! The universe has a strange sense of humour sometimes :)
At this point it just uses the built in UT2k4 player models. The UT2k4 port was a pretty quick port, and the mod is definitely still "under development." We're looking for modelers/mappers/coders now, know anyone who would be interested?
In regards to that I "might" have some HDD space left to reinstall it and do some screenies for the Gallery for The UT2k4 Ver. Hold your hat on that I'll see what I can do once I get to the house and get things rollin! ;)
Any screens of the UT2K4 version around? All I seem to see is screenshots of (apparently) the previous edition, and would like to see if there's any detail increase on the new characters. (the old characters were a bit flat - I just assumed it was because of the tech though...)
Yea, they have been at work at work quite awhile. I hate teh fact there are ******** on the board and the site that just can't shut the fu** up if they have nothing better to say than "Its Stoodis I r give 1+ @
5+00P1D @\/\/@9D Look at me 1 r Teh fu|\|Y H@|-|a ". These men and women took time of thier own to create this and rather than get some dinksmack that just can't stay away and say, "You're stupid for making you wasted 7 Yrs of your lives on this piece of crap HAHAHAH! My Mod Rocks Long live me" then just propogate more crap, JUST STAY OFF the Friggin thread if you're that much of rude retraded sleestack you really have no right to be here on here on the site. You wanna Flame someone take off site -Period- . My Two Cents. Grrrrr
I smell a Dedication Award brewing.. 5 years is a bloody long time!
heh .. cool ... like 2 years ago i had an idea kind of similar to this mod but i thought i wouldnt be realizeable (sp?) .. however .. seems to be an interesting mod ... unfortunally i dont have ut2k4 >_>
but anyways, good luck with your mod guys :)
