I don't have access to modify the Forsaken entry on ModDB anymore unfortunately. I would have no problem throwing it up on Google Code, IF the mod was still being actively developed. The problem was never updating the code, just art assets and maps. You know there is a problem when coders start learning how to map ;) Forsaken could still easily be developed and released for wide public use, the only thing ever lacking was the final push from artists and mappers to add the few remaining assets. Unfortunately our lead mapper is now the lead level designer for Little Big Planet, our lead character artist/animator is now the lead character artist for Hi-Rez Studio's Global Agenda, and our lead weapon modeler has worked full-time at Terminal Reality for quite a while. It's hard for people to work on a game full-time during the day and come home and work on another game... it's draining on a lot of levels. The key thing is we all had fun developing Forsaken. All we cared about was making a game that WE enjoyed playing, and at that we succeeded. It's just unfortunate that despite the amount of time we poured into the project, the general public never really got to see what we were doing. That's why I'm releasing everything now... to let others enjoy it. There's the fringe benefit for everyone else out there in getting to learn from our source code, there's some pretty cool stuff tucked away in there. One of them being the ability to have a mapper create the win conditions for a map that depends on the team. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Edwards Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2008 5:27 PM To: Discussion of Half-Life Programming Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Post your code!
