Hi there!
Today I am writing here because I want to ketch some ideas and/or interested crewmembers for my new project.
A few months ago me and some friends started developing a mod for Half Life². Theme of the mod: The great Stargate universe!
As we all already know there are multiple projects using this theme. That's exactly why I want your help, your ideas and fantasies to make this mod/tc a great game-experience! Currently I am involved practicing on AI-control, combat system, scripted events and entity-implementation as well as on entity-control.
Map-creation for the earth SG-C started a while ago.
But what is this mod about? Stargate-Fans may already know what Stargate is about. It's about the human nature to explore new areas, gain new knowledge and new allies against rising enemies like the Goa'Uld or the Orie.
This mod is meant to allow all Stargate fans out there to take there own mission through the Stargate, to explore far distant planets, to make contact to new allies and gather new technology to ensure the victory upon potential rising enemies. It is meant to take you into the great universe of the Stargate.
But it is far more then just that! It is meant to fascinate not just Stargate fans all over the world, but even those who don't know anything about Stargate. We don't want another game that offers you exactly one choice. We want the player to take his own choices! How? Well let's see. Let's say you go through the Stargate and make contact to an alien race. This race managed to create an extremely powerful weapon that is able to breach through Goa'Uld shields. Now there is one problem! They don't want to share this technology. What are you going to do? Will you try to trade with them? Or are you going to gain that weapon with brutal forces?
This is one possible choice the player will have to make on his own.
Sounds great to you? Well than be sure that there is more coming up. This is just one point that will make our game unique.
To ensure high quality of this mod and to implement all this features and liberty's for the player this modification/total conversion of Half Life² will take a long time. Especially mapping will take a very large amount of time.
Tell me what you think about it.
Bye
