uwasawaya - its not "selling out"
This would be a not for profit endeavour. No money would be made. Nada. Nil , nothing.
I only suggested it because I felt that it would be a more reasonable alternative to moving everything to UE3, and because it could be done in the short term, and wouldn't be nearly as involved as an engine change.
Also, the additional eye candy that accompanies RO would probably assist KF in not looking dated as quickly. Any further enhancements to the RO engine would be usable in KF.
I'd love to help - but I've got my hands full atm, and right now I dont really have a computer that could be of any use for modding.

Wouldn't we have to buy RO to play KF then? I don't really wanna buy RO, I tried it and didn't like it. And if it switched to steam could we still make maps and other things for KF still?  |

I agree with Wassy (Uwasawaya), no matter what you guys (the "newer" team), do with the mod. Alex deserves ninety-nine percent (99%) of the credit for the mod, due to the perfect base of the mod, allowing replay valvue, over and over and over again for a co-op gameplay (doesn't happen very often anymore, games/mods rarely do any co-op anymore, and those that do, get old fast), especially with the twist of never'ending waves of specimens/monsters, even though you get your ass handed to you no matter what (thanks to the tweaks Faust have made) it's still THE best, modification I have ever played. I mean, I have about seven full bought games that sit on my computer, brand new games (BF2, F.E.A.R, AA, Sims 2  , etc) that are completely dusty since 2.0 came out, it's the only game I play, and it never gets old. And I can't wait to see where the rest of you guys take the mod it's self, and where the community takes the rest of it. |

I think this would be ace... but I can't decide. Both have Pros + cons. KF w/ bloom lighting + proper water effects would be the shizz. But Staying on 04 would be easier and wouldn't alienate anyone.
It should be up to Alex, IMO.

Alex already made his decision, Doyora.
Unless he changed it, or I'm just dumb. He specifically stated stay with 2k4.

Alex already made his decision, Doyora. Unless he changed it, or I'm just dumb. He specifically stated stay with 2k4. Well, he did just kinda say that it was an option out there for us if we wanted to follow through with it, and looking back it really is a hell of a lot more reasonable of a proposal. Sure we would need to buy RO, but seriously, it's like 20 bucks, the editor would be practically the same + extra eyecandy, and influence on tripwire if we really needed something touched up with in the hard code, and even if you don't like RO that much, it's not like we'd have to play it, we'd basically have a game we all love playing already, that being KF. I dunno, I wish I could change the poll to a fresh one on whether or not we want to go with RO . It'd be a fresh community and a good opportunity in my opinion. It's up to everyone here if we want to. And do realize that we don't need to drop everything to work on it if we do decide to. To quote Captain Planet, the power is your's! |

CAPTIAN PLANET!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I was watching Robot Chicken last night) Honestly, moving to a new source and all I think is a little dumb, it has settled here at UT2004 for now, it would probably improve and all, but I am in debt like 1100, I don't have 20 bucks to spare . And for younger members who can't get 20 bucks too, those who don't have jobs and etc, not all parents buy their kids a game even if it's 20. I think UT2004 is a smart way to keep it alive as'well as just easier. If in the future when I'm out of the hole, I may rethink my thought on this |

I think you misunderstood me. I meant 04 or RO. Not 04 or 07.

RO:O = RO, in terms of what I said.
