We are currently running a test server. The ip is: 84.202.65.83:27960

Many of the mod team members will be playing on that server so we can take questions and comments.

Yes, server is down for tonight. If you feel like posting your own test server just post the IP here so people can join.

Woohoo! Here comes one of those few mods with freely driveable tanks! :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ll give it a try later, it was certainly worth the wait.

(TWIXMIX) #8

I’m not sure if our lead programmer included the drivable tanks in this build. You can see a video of it at www.falckonstudios.tk .

We are in need a a host for a few hours. If someone has a server it would be much appreciated if you would host.

(TWIXMIX) #15

THere are tons of changes.

If I have time I’ll try to write one up later. We haven’t done it yet because wer were focusing on getting this beta out.

(IneQuation) #16

Well, I’ve given it a try, and all I can say is bugs, bugs and even more bugs. The shadows are IMHO crap. It has great potential, though - I keep my fingers crossed so that you guys manage to fix all those issues. :slight_smile:

(kamikazee) #17

Well, at first sight the shadows should be altered depending on the level.
They seem too hard-edged and dark, on the other hand it’s great they allready work!

(.Chris.) #18

the shadows are odd yeah :smiley:
like the new guns but dont like aiming down the sights no matter what game it is, it doesnt isnt for me. the tanks were interesting i had a piss around with them in one of my larger maps i got with some places big enough for them, well done though works well but if i shoot something far away i dont see explosion dunno if that my settings or what.

(IneQuation) #19

Maybe I’m just dumb but how do I get a drivable tank? I wanna have a ride! :stuck_out_tongue:

On the homepage it says you need to type /addpanzer in the console, so it’s only reserved for local play.

I hope they can add a ‘panzer tank spawn point’ soon to include in the maps.
