Hey everyone.
A while ago i posted on here about a game in development based on stargate.
Our website is www.planettribes.com/sg1
Notice i say game becuase it is no longer a Modification on Tribes 2 but will be a standalone game using the same engine.
Over the last few months work as been slow but we have managed to incorporate some new effects such as forrests, cool sun and water effects plus a whole lot more.
The reason for this post is becuase i want community input into the design and gameplay of Sg1.
A rough design document done by me can be found here
www.planettribes.com/sg1/stargatedoc.doc
The sg1 mod for tribes 2 began a very long time ago (Close to 2 years) During that time it had stalled for a few months.
A couple of months ago i approached the old leader about reviving the mod and porting it over to the new engine. At that time not much work had been done on it ( A few nice spiffy models).
So i am currently doing alot of stuff again from scratch.
Since alot of the new team arnt huge stargate followers and i myself being a follower to now not watching it as much as i would like i want as much input as possible.
Obviously there are constraints on what the engine can do and such but not taking that into account i would appreciate if everyone could look at the document and either.
A) Criticise any details on here
B) Take a copy of it and remodify it to your liking. Then either email me at iroach@erggroup.com or catch me on i cq 43741647
This design document is very rough . Alot of the details regarding races e.t.c are taken straight from popular websites like stargate central (simply for me to get a description on various items).
However its mostly concepts , Map ideas (Not having watched the show for awhile coming up with maps from the show is hard), plus other possible race inclusions, weapons, balancing, vehicles e.t.c
Look forward to hearing your responses.
