The team behind the Dystopia mod for Half-Life 2 have done a press release for January, updating us all on what they've been up to:
You can find out more about the Dystopia mod here.
For the last few weeks, the world has been quite busy dealing with hangovers and filling stomachs with Christmas goodies. In actuality, there is not that much for us to report this month because we've been taking a bit of a holiday break ourselves. We have loaded some of the last release candidate builds to the Steam servers, and they're quite ready to go. It's up to Valve to press the button now.
Besides that, a few developers have been compiling a few things, and adding finishing touches. Below, we've put together a quick video to show you a couple small things that we have been working on.
Rabidpenguin, one of the team's newest additions, is a very talented modeler and animator. He has been working on animating a couple of models overdue for such an honor, over the last few weeks. His latest score are two commonly used models in cyberspace, the cyber-shard and the ice-mine.
Sverek, our new sound engineer has been working diligently on adding new sounds, and changing old ones, to move away a lot of our sound base from Half-Life 2 oriented sounds. He has proven to be quite a hard worker, and has made exceptional progress.
Finally, a few of the mappers have made an update. Venciera, original author of Cybernetic, has been working pretty hard to give his map some fresh updates. Flying cars, a floating hostage pod and a teleportation device are just some of the things he's been perfecting.
