Introduction
Well it's been a long while hasn't it? Don't fear, the project isn't dead! We've just not shared anything in a LONG while. Our team has been hard at work with developing Arsenio 2044 into a much more playable state than what it was in months ago.
Codebase & Mechanics
Our Programmers (me included) have been hard at work with patching up the codebase from Arsenio 3044 that was broken and adding new stuff. Arsenio 2044 now exclusively uses GamePadUI instead of both GamepadUI and our own custom GameUI module.
As you can see, it's very WIP and we've not completely moved over yet, still more things to add and the background video was removed.
As always, the code is open source and you can view it here.
Music
Our composer, Teggy has produced a few new tracks for Arsenio 2044, have a listen.
Models & Animations
Our animator/modeler Wildchee has finished the Glock animations, have a look!
He modeled and animated it all, there are no textures yet and no custom sounds have been added to it yet.
Also, the HEV arms are temporary, as Arsenio doesn't wear an HEV suit.
Level Design
Level design is mainly being worked on by me at the moment, and only 3 maps for the campaign exist at the moment.
Here are some screenshots of the second map in Hammer.
Needed Team Positions
We need more people who are experienced or newbies at Source modding for Arsenio 2044, especially Mappers and concept artists. Here are the open team positions:
- Additional Modelers/animators for either Weapons, NPCs, or props.
- Level Designers.
- Texture Artists.
- Concept Artists - we really need you.
- Coders, to fix bugs and optimization issues.
- Storywriters.
- Voice Actors.
