Re: Battlefield Pirates 2 Mod Update

If you havent looked carefully, you might not have noticed that there is more in that sky than just skull faces. *howl* Brother Justice has put quite a number of other surprises on his map... I think this will be a favorite if people can get over their reservations about playing night maps. I added a very big bright full moon to his map so you can get around and fight without NVGs.

We've been very tempted to do some storm effects ala Operation Harvest on this one as well. Although the skybox and moon flare are distracting enough as it is. :) Keep tuned for more updates - there's been a ton of progress in the last few months.

Re: Battlefield Pirates 2 Mod Update

Any timeline for a release? I personally know that's a hated question, but I gotta ask :)

@Rhino - No, thats the tag for the -=4th=- Infantry Division (4thclan.com). We've bumped into a few of the Eagle Squadron guys along the way, but I dont know that member in particular.

@kiff - We have a working build together that will soon go into beta testing. Like most full conversion mods, we are having major trouble rigging new characters to new weapons... So our expected release date has already come and gone quite a long time ago and its still difficult to estimate how much work is left when the answers to tough problems arent quite black and white. Nearly all of the content is 90%+ done, its just a few last pieces that are kicking our butts. Hopefully we will have these nailed down in a couple months at most, but its anybody's guess at this point.

Re: Battlefield Pirates 2 Mod Update

The cloud artwork was done by our concept artist Wegvisor and I brought the latest version ingame with a big full moon, stars and coloring. You can hit me with a PM if you have specific questions - its way easier than the old 42 method.

You both hit the nail on the head :) Well, except that we're almost past the "couple months" point.
