Viper: The Metro City Chronicles 2.0 was a big update, it was a major overhaul to the mods code. Also a lot of new smaller things have be added, such as the remote Morph, Engine Sounds along with many other smaller things.

Overall I must say that the release went pretty good, no major shop stoppers for players. And I'm surprised that I have almost zero reports of users having problems with installing the map mods. Unlike Viper: The Metro City Chronicles, in which it was a little bit hard to install the map mod.

With Viper: The Metro City Chronicles 2.1 we will aim at adding new features to the mod, it will not be a major overhaul like V:TMCC 2.0. There will be a upgrade package for the users how currently have V:TMCC 2.0 installed, so that you don't need to re install the game. But as always there will be a full installation package.

Morphing
In Viper: The Metro City Chronicles 2.0 the morphing system didn't really change, not much at all infact. It was only recoded, and when it was done I noticed that most of the code is the same for every morph. For Viper: The Metro City Chronicles I plan to re-write the morph system and make parts re-usable. In a way that every morph will have its own sniffer thread, and then it will pass all the required information to the actual morph script. More information about this will be released soon.

Weapon System
In V:TMCC 2.0 the weapon system have been taken to the next step, in order to use a specific weapon you need to open the pod first that houses it. With V:TMCC 2.1 this system will be completely changed, it will use a menu instead of the current set-up. More information about this will also be released soon.

Speed-odometer
Got this idea from a ModDb user, how posted in on our ModDb page. And we will take a look if we can add an original Viper Speed-odometer to the mod.

One bug has been reported so far for V:TMCC 2.0, you can view it here. It is our first attention to get this bug fix, and if its an easy patch also release it for V:TMCC 2.0, and off course include it in V:TMCC 2.1.

For the users how also use our Website, you might notice that I have installed a new skin. I personally really like it, some sections might still need some work. Please report bugs if you spot them. The news section on our website also had an overhaul, it is now more of a blog type news section. Please look in this section frequently to get the latest development updates, since ModDb doesn't display them right away when we publish updates.
