Plan for Matthew Krull

Wow, been a long time...
I'm back in school, first year comp sci at Carleton University in warm and sunny Ottawa Canada (If you know Ottawa in the winter you'll see the humor).

Messing around with some Tribes2 code, seeing if I can figure it out... I'd like to do a WWI mod (I have never seen a good one (any one!) done for tribes2 or even HL). But I don't expect to get too far, I've got so much else on my plate. Right now I just want to modify the bullets so they drop with gravity, my personal beef with WW2 mods is that sniper fire goes straigh, not parabolic. But I plan on changing that... maybe even add in wind. we'll see how far I get.

If you'd like to help out in a true-to-life (ala DoD, FA or CS for HL) WWI mod for Tribes2, give me a shout. If I can get a team together that would really rock. I've got plenty of ideas, but not the skill to pull them off.

And with that, I too am off, catch you later.

Seems like the world wars are hot gmaes lately, seems like a lot are coming out(Various HL mods, MoA, Wolfenstien, etc..)

I remember an old Hl mod, War in Europe, I think the first version was WWI, but it died out and have been remade since, it was pretty fun.

I'm still waiting to see something new with the WWI-II mods, they all seems to use the same stuff over with, at least with Tribes 2 it would be nice to see more of a capture and hold with vehicle support type game.

Something like that would at least differ itself from the other ones which are usually capture and hold in a linear closed in village.

General ranting, can't wait to see what happens with it!

check out Project: Warfare...not a WWI or WWII mod, but modern day. WWII is a bore.
