So whats happening with the mod?
To test the game play and mechanics in source I created a fairly simple mini game map for counter strike source. It contains 4 working robots. Choas 2, Firestorm, Tornado and Hypnodisk. I have worked a bit on a fifth robot but it is not complete. All the screen shots and media so far are of this mini game map.
I want to take this idea further by turning into a full source mod for Half-Life 2. For this to happen I'm going to need some help. At the moment the only real urgent position I need to fill is "Coder". My knowledge of C++ is unfortunately zero :(
Once the base for the multiplayer mod is created I can then create an SVN server. Once that's all in place I get then actually get properly to work!
Here is my list of planned features for the beta:
- Ten robots for first beta release. (below are robots which have a test version made and are therefore confirmed.)
- Chaos 2
- Firestorm
- Hypnodisk
- Tornado
- Behemoth
- ???? Leave a comment and suggest robots you want to see!
- Up to 6 player carnage online (current test map supports 2)
- House robots?
- Custom menu for choosing your robot
- High quality models for each robot. (current test map uses brush based geometry)
- Improved custom textures
- 2 different arenas to fight in and a SUMO game mode.
If you think you could help out coding the mod or just create the base for the mod it would be very much appreciated! Thank you!
Cease and deactivate robots.
