Alot of you guys may have heard me referencing a game im working on in the forum. Well I thought its time I reveal my project to you guys.
I would like to call it a new game as its far more then a mod, but it uses a great deal of dune 2000 files, so I have decided to call it an expansion. It will feature the mercenaries as the only playable house, and every other house as NPCs. Sub Houses will play a MUCH bigger role in this expansion. New units will be added, a new story is being written, new cut scenes are being shot, new maps and missions coded. Its going to be big. But there will not be a multi-player, I feel this is for the best.

You will play as a mercenary commander, fresh to the conflict, you will serve other houses that employ you until you have enough funds to turn to your own plans. Its being built entirely with the d2k+ Toolkit, which will be released with source upon game completion. Ive received permission from djcid243 to use his music in the mod, I think it will work very nicely to freshen the music for the plot Im working on.

Leave feedback below, I will listen, and good ideas will be implemented. Depending on how well this goes, I might release another expansion based on the imperial sardaukar.

You have done an awesome job dude. Cannot wait for your update. I never know there was an update of DUNE 2000 since 'The Emperor'. Btw, I am downloading dune2000 from your site, i just knew about it right now,
Btw, thanks.

There hasn't been much work on it, but all the tools are available for anyone else who wants to lend a hand.

I have decided to resume work on the project, but it will be smaller in scale then originally announced.

AI logic in the .mis files, as well as event logic. aKaFedaYkin has already said he would help with that, I will do most of the rest. Our free time is limited, so it will be done slowly.
