Hey there, fellow trenchrats, have a glance at our February/March update!
In this update we have collected some of the work we’ve been producing over the past 2 months to make up for the lack of a media update on the 2 year anniversary for WW1:S.
We are sorry for the lack of updates lately, but we hope this one will make up for it:
To start off, I guess we could show you some neat conceptart from our own JesusFood, study it for a bit, it's art afterall. It’s said a picture can paint a thousand words, Ashton only managed to get about 870 before he gave up, though English isn’t his first language so we think he can be forgiven.

We have a new full set of character models... once again. The British Infantry, British Officer and German Infantry/Officer model have been made by Volcol. We’re striving for authenticity on these and they should be accurate. The new models should fit the DoD:Source rig perfectly, which means easily intergrated animations but above all else, time saved on production. We’ll also be reviewing all the equipment, this includes the webbing, pouches, caps, helmets and gasmasks – etc etc:

To go with the new playermodels we've had some great facial models contributed by Kehl (Adam Harrison). I can promise you guys straight off the bat that we have some big plans for these:

An addition to the game, we’re also very happy with, and we know alot of you have been waiting for. Moustaches. Yea, you read that right, moustaches.

Volcol has also made a neat little piece for some closequarter combat in the trenches, the Trenchclub. Go ahead, crack some skulls with this badboy, and have fun, we’ll let you imagine the sound effects for the time being:

Now, allow us to introduce our newest member Johan "Strayferret" Streiffert. He'll be serving as one of our modelers, and his first piece of work really stunned us, our new MG08/15 which is almost ready to be implented in the game:

Next up we have some animations for various weapons that ChrisTanky and NicolayW has made, be sure to subscribe to their youtube channels to maybe get teaser/WIP animations for WW1:S earlier than others! Please watch them in HD!
Ashton has been working on another map for the mod, the goal for this map is to illustrate the stalemate on the western front, as both sides have really dug in deep with complex trenches. The players will need to advance through fog and barbed wire, capture a farmhouse and eliminate the enemies in their trenches. Say hello to 'ww_artois'




Jobs:
We’re really needing a Sound engineer right now, so if you’re willing to help us out please apply by PM.
A breif description of the roll:Ability to create weapon audio, battlescapes/ambient audio and general audio for things like movement (footsteps, equipment shuffling)
We should have our next update out mid April, so until then keep watching this space!

Lowest Rated (3 agree) 5/10
I don't mean to bring you down, but I found this mod pretty dreadful in its current state. Your attempt at realism by forcing the player to "pull the bolt" every time you shoot is annoying but I guess some people will like it. The Officers' ability to drop toxic gas and artilery is terrible. It's very frustrating to get killed randomly, and it adds nothing of value to the gameplay. The biggest problem I had when playing was really the red effect when you get hit. It paints nearly your entire screen…

If any of you are having a hard time figuring out when players play WW1 Source (large crowds), just join our steam group. Youll start noticing we have scheduled and unscheduled events all the time. Heres the link to it:

ADD BOTS PLEASE!!! I've been tired of never being able to play such a great game because nobody has heard of this mod. Bots are a great thing added to many sucesfull valve multiplayer games like Team Fortress 2, Counter-Strike series, etc. I hope that you eventually add bots to the game. You guys are doing great work. Please do the whole + vote thing if you agree.

Try on the weekends, primarily on the 3rd Marine server.
0:24, music?
Hopefully, you guys are making progress. I've been waiting upwards of 3 years for an update. Would be nice to know at least how far along you guys are so we know how much longer we have to wait v.v
I have access to their SVN/Dev version of the update they are working on (I did their website which no one decided to keep paying for lol). And trust me, work continues actually a little more rapidly than usual. They picked up some experienced coders (which was what has been stalling them for a very long time now) and Im seeing a lot of progress again. And if your an old player you should redownload the mod and give it another try as is. I'll admit is not a Battlefield 3 quality, but its fun quality can be a lot of fun sometimes. And TRUST me, if it were not for a few of us who stuck around through this mods very short fame it got when it released, we wouldnt be sitting here talking about this MASSIVE update about to happen. Show your support by helping the fan base grow by having players in game when they first download and try out WW1 Source. Im not taking much stock in the thousands of players who we saw come and go during the mods initial release almost 3 years ago to be that reliable again after 2.0 comes out.
They are making progress. You may have a few months to wait, but just play the game as it is until that time comes. I personally love it as-is.
This mod is very interesting, I would hate to see it die there's barely any WW1 games.
Trust me, it's not dead. The dev's are hard at work putting it together.
