Still in the testing/development stages but playable and looks interesting...

[[EVIL]Unknown]

oh shafe is working on that


im a tester =P

[Warrior]

Are they using our BattleSuit model? :eek:



Flying robots?


I remember someone suggesting flying aliens on the Forums…

Edit: These flying robots seems to be some map elements called "func-xx" where "xx" is the function type used that I don't investigate further to know which one is.

I've not played that game yet (it's downloading right now).

Edit: Played already. My comment is in my next post.

[DieFamilyGuy]

yeah shafe ran out of skins, so he jacked some off of trem XD

[Taiyo.uk]

...and there's the gargoyle model from OpenArena too

I like how they seem to hump Elite Force, that game rocks. Let's keep an eye on this game.

[[EVIL]Unknown]

elite force "still kicks ass" lava u should join us one day on gladiator.. i think were setting up some kind of reunion ef thing.. were basically all gonna jump on a server one day and play a bunch of mods like glad, instacube and such..

[vcxzet]

looks not playable and too ugly
I will take a look again in one year

[Neo]

yeah, if only screenshots had an fps above 0.

[leilei]

hmm

[Plague Bringer]

they got the the Tremulous content puts the Tre in Trepidation..they even stole the name! Oh! I cant wait untill the Natural Selection community hears about this "zOMGz they stole from our game! HEY! They stole from Tremulous, which stole from our game, so they stole from us TWICE, LET'S MAKE FLAME THREADS!!!"

[Neo]

Yeah, all they need is a rastafarian rhino and you'd have the NS hordes on them before the page finished loading.

[leilei]

what's also shocking is that they ask for donations for this kind of crap

they also took oa_bases3 (my map under GPL) and modified it without sources or credit either.

[Plague Bringer]

that's BS, "donate to us so we can steal more stuff!"

[Lava Croft]

Let's keep the Trepidation flaming where it belongs, the forums of that Open Arena game.

Trepidation uses content from Tremulous. It's our business.

Hi

Hopefully your the right person to direct this to. A handful of folks are working on another game called Trepidation.

We've used some stuff in the internal builds - critical to just making it work until we can finish our original game media.

It was originally planned to have the game media fall under the GPL 2.0. However, due to a system crash and a loss of several source files for levels and a few models. The game media will be under a split license, part under the gpl2 and part under the creative commons (in separate pk3s)

We're sorting out everythign hoping to start making our development builds public in the coming weeks.

One of the items we have been using so that the game is playable for the developers is 2 player models from Tremulous. Specifically the battlesuit model and the marine s1 model.

If we dont have our own player models completed (which is very likely that we wont) we would like to include the two Tremulous player models in our public development builds in the CC licensed pk3, while we continue to get the game media done. They are awesome models and we may even like to include them as a skin/model for the final release.

My question is first do you guys have any problems with that? 2nd if not, how should it be credited? Dark Legion, the actual creator (which I'm not sure if that's you or someone else, you are listed first under 3d art).

Sorry for the ramble  

Thanks in advance
Shafe

It would be easier just to credit Darklegion development since there were three different people working on those two models.

None of us minds you using any code or media assets from Tremulous, which is why we allow such free use of them in our licences. You don't even need to ask, just follow what the licence says!

And yes... another year if not more before v1.0

I think the problem is not acknowledging required ppl before releasing them
and mixing lots of non-free content

[Warrior]

Shafe, your team needs at least a small bit of creativity instead of using (and doing a bad implementation of) the same content other games. And please remove those stupid BOTs from all servers unless you don't want real people playing the game. Actually all servers have 4 bots and 0 real players playing on.
P.S. 1: Need better mappers too. I only found ugly textures/shaders/effects and bad brush work.
P.S. 2: Take this as a constructive critical instead of an offense
P.S. 3: I am not one of the most quoted persons here to make a critical.

The problem with FPS games is that there all very similar to one another. That's why I like Tremulous it's different. If the people at Iforgetthename make that game really different I will forgive them.
