Freelancer: Black Dawn is a Halo modification for Freelancer, we currently have a very active mod team, and have just completed the first phase of our development. We are hoping to have a Public Alpha for Friday the 22nd of February with a special event called Gold vs Green. We have a very experienced mod team, which has worked on other Freelancer mods such as Monkey Universe and Freelancer:Combat Evolved. With some of the mod team receiving help off some of the best coders Freelancer has ever seen such as lancer Solorus (the giant SSM)and FriendlyFire(Program Expert). We are offering a brand new RPing system which will intrigue and excite people, along with brand new effects and massive systems (200x200km large).

Freelancer:Black Dawn needs you….Perhaps

After the disappearance of one of our lead developers and head admin, Descender due to an internet failure, the other two lead admins, Me (Dark_Angel) and Apoc Sky, have decided to carry on with the production with Freelancer: Black Dawn (FL:BD), in this quest for finishing the mod, and therefore take over the world with it’s awesomeness we need some extra help, if you can do any of these things, then we really could do with your help:

  • Graphics, encompassing several things:
    • Logos,
    • Textures,
      • Including Glow maps,
      • Planets,
      • Ships.

    • Conceptual art

 

  • UV Mappers would be really nice, but we have people learning to do this,

 

  • THN scripter,

 

  • Modelers for Covenant Designed ships and stations are needed,

 

  • Coders: for factions and solar objects.

 

Apart from that our Alpha version is coming along very nicely, we have most of the weapon effects done, and are working on balance, equipment is nearly finished too with Avenger currently working on that.

I also think that we should include little snippets of what we intend to do for Role-play, it’s a new system, and hell it is going to make a LOT of work for everyone developing the game, but it should bring the players the best experience out there, hopefully.

     Well basically, the RP goes like this, if you want it, then make it, basically the larger something is the more raw resources and money you will need to build it, however having a Super Cruiser with 5 MACs is great, and is perfectly fine, however, it will have 3 or 4 MLA point defense cannons, 3 or 4 archer missile tubes, no Shiva nuke slots, no launch bays and around 100,000 armor, the same as a frigate, And it will cost around 10 billion and 200,000 worth of resource units. There will be unpopulated systems where you have to take resources to build a station and such there, but you will have to actually take the resources there to an admin stationed there.

Those are just some of the many ideas we have; we are still developing new ones, and evolving new ones from old rules and ideas.
