Is this project still going?!

[Vanguard3000]

To the Arrakis2K project leader:

Hello. I'm really looking foreward to seeing this game, but your lack of posts force me to conclude that this project is no longer in progress. Could you please try and have the main site updated once in a while, whether there is anything important to say or not? even something like "Same as last update." would do, and would at least let people know that you are still doing something. The site hasn't been updated in over 2 months, which is telling me that this project may have been halted. If this is so, at least tell us that this is true, so that we are not anticipating the release of a "phantom game". Thank you for your time.

Regards,

Adrian N

Well MarS is still working on the engine... I don't know if we will ever finish the game but yes we are still technically working on the game just not as much as say 6 months ago.

The hollidays are comming up, so maybe someone can make the time to update the site! (or better thy coud even do some work)

[tobias]

release source. please

[Gobalopper]

What holidays? And if you want the source ask MarS and he might give you it, although I can't be certain.

[tobias]

i didn't mean i wanted it. :)

im only programming delphi.

but if the source was open everybody could

contribute to it. and people could allways

see what is happening.

thanks for a great site.

[tobias]

btw i did say release source.

Don't get so pushy, just give them time to think about it first, and also give them time to actually get the game running in alpha stages or something.

[binarycoder]

yes it is.

im working hard on quadtree landscape now.

Real - time 3d takes a while to learn...

but the game is progressing.

the real problems have preety much been solved..

landscape should be up and running as soon as i get quadtree going..

there's no point in releasing source code until something which is worthy (such as a demo) is released.

[binarycoder]

i think everyone would rather have me coding than posting..

but sorry about the slow updates..

How ya gonna make the AI work, just rush all his units every so many minutes or like build teams and attck?

[Acriku]

Take your time guys, I just hope it is enough to wait for.

[varsh]

If it wasn't for University, I woulda helped with the graphics or something, oh well, I helped still :), I'll be waiting patiently, hope it comes together well.

[exatreide]

cant wait.

[varsh]

Oh yeah, I'm trying to get ADSL at the mo, if I can get it, could I by any chance become a playtester? ;)

[vidiware]

[Gobalopper]

Maybe although I don't know if the chances are very high.
