Multi-Gametype FPS starter

I figured I had better start doing something with the piles of cs files I have been working on and off with for years. Sure I have released a few things and help people where I can but I haven't put anything worthwhile out in a long time, real life issues aside. So I took apart a game I was working on and re-assembled it into a starter script base for a TGE powered FPS game. I can't nor will I claim everything in it as my own, most of the credit I give to the Ex Dynamix Tribes 2 development team and of course the Garage Games staff :)

So wheres the beef? Well for starters it is powered Torque Gaming Engine v 1.5 It is using the demo executable that Garage Games distributes to the public. It boasts 3 gametypes included: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and a twist on Capture the Flag. It isn't much work to write gametypes and just drop them in. It also has team features, a voting system and a simple quick chat hud.

This starter is fully functional, it could be a game all by itself with content and a few c++ additions. Think of it as the fps.starter mod that comes with your TGE purchase except this one is on steroids and it is not a mod of the common folder. It IS the common folder. Why should your game be a mod? ;) When you first look at the script layout you will see its organization is a bit different from the starter kit. Those with experience with Tribes 2 modding will feel right at home however.

I have bug tested as much as I could myself but I am sure there are some, but I am pretty sure none of them are show stoppers.

If you find any please drop me a line so I can work on it and release an update. very little content in the way of art is mine and none of the audio is. That said, content cannot be used in a commercial project without permission from the authors. Everything else is fair game. I did my best to make sure the content I used was freely distributed. If you see your content in the starter and you are not mentioned in the credits or want the content removed, please contact me ASAP.

I hope someone finds this starter useful, as that is my goal for this project. I feel I have rambled on so lets cut to the chase.
