    First Strike Dev Diary #12 - Mattes

    There is a new dev diary posted today over at the First Strike mod website featuring Mattes. Here's what he had to say:
    My name's Mattes and I'm a modeller and skinner for FirstStrike. I do a few other things as well but they mostly consist of giving Blitz a headache.

    My main focus for the first few months with the team have been Mos Espa models. I hope you enjoy this collection of Mos Espa buildings as our group has worked very hard on them. You can look at my models from when I first started compared to the most recent ones and really see a difference. I've learned so much working with this team. It's given me so much perspective as to how professional game development works.

    My latest project was in the trenches. Preacher gave me the honor of working on the Death Star trench. 3 days of work and I managed to randomize Preacher's models and I made 5 trench plates. This was so the trench was more dynamic and not like a Flintstones cartoon where you see the same potted plant every half-second.

      Since First Strike seems to be the only mod worth following, it's not surprising that it be the mod with the most content.

      I for one love all the content updates as I've been following this since the team was developing it for the BF2 engine.

      Keep it coming guys, some of us are anxious as hell for this mod! :) Let's see if you can match what GQ did for BF1942 and more! I have high hopes for you all! :)

      PEACE

            The Mos Espa buildings look great. This MOD will definitely add a unique play experience and twist to 2142.
            I can feel my old SW Battlefront nerves firing already.

              TBH, its taking a lot of time.... waaay too long, yes its a total conversion, but they should probably speed it up, or cut parts out.

              it was worth waiting for, but ... pushing it.
