I'm 99.99 percent sure he wouldn't mind if they got converted. He does check the forums from time to time. How else would he have known about the "L4Y vs. Volition" game. |

If this continues to bare a high quality of work, Red Faction UT might become more popular then Red Faction itself. Almost like a revival of the days when RF first came to the PC. |

edit2: It seems like there are too many files missing in the mod I've sent you. I didn't know that.
It all works good when you have everything, just one missing file and the whole mod wont work I have so many custom files for UT2004, I don't know which are custom or not.
I've just installed UT2004 a second time, so can run the mod from fresh folders but can keep my old folder. (I hope this aint going to cause problems in the future)
While testing I noticed that files of the Ballistic mutator and the HaloUT mutator were missing, and maybe thats not all. I did use some code of these mutators and forgot to isolate my own files for the mod.
If you try to run RFDM-02 it wont start, open up the console and type in showlog to know why.
I'll resend another version soon, I couldnt fix it in this short time.
You could download both mutators and try, but I'm not sure if thats all that is missing.
edit: To the mod team: So what do you think of the mod? Many things have to be changed such as sounds and better animations but the alpha shows the rough shape, and I think there are some bits that really feel like RF.
I didn't test the mod on my second computer, I get the feeling that some packages might be missing, in this case I'll send you another file today. Totally forgot about that..

This could happen yes. However there are some things that can't be done by us unexperienced coders such as a new HUD, which includes the good old chat window. We will also need a new, very cool looking, menu. I didn't take a closer look on these things yet, I just hope that these are easy to do..and I hope that somebody will help us on that. I want to change the "whole face" of UT2004 so people will not feel like they are playing UT.
It seems like the Red Faction mod will not going to require as much as performance as UT2004 does. Most playermodels use the same animations (I think so..) and the texture usage will be much lower. Some weaponskins of UT2004 have dimensions of 1024 up to freaking 2048 pixels while RF uses textures like 128x128 or 256x256. I'm not sure if we can find persons that could pimp the textures a little.

The "Sub Machine Gun" (I need to know how to write that name..is that right?) aka machine pistol now has a silencer, I've wanted to make it more different. You can see grenades above the ammo bar, not sure if that is a good idea. Maybe I could make it shoot poison darts or something like that...I have no idea, secondary fire modes are fun sometimes.
I'm working on the assault rifle model now. The ammo count texture on the model and the burst mode will be tricky, but thats been done in other mods so I think its possible to do for me.
The railgun will definitely be the hardest part |

It would be cool if you coud get your hands on some weapon skins, though.
I have no idea how to make a skin look better, all I can do is resizing them and push the button "Sharpen More" But thats like doing nothing. The texture will doesn't really look much better when I do that. |

I havent popped into this thread for a long time, nice to see this going along nicely. I would love to help but I only learnt how to do a basic room (just like RED ) Except the last time I tried it wouldn't work. I made the room and all but it wouldnt load. oh, and RedFrog Installation looks wicked 
If someone can help me with the basics and remind me how to start a map upto test then Count me in on the map creation (everyone groans) |

you should get your max connection from there.
most are like 5mb or so, so youll have maby 20 mins to download each, which will work out well because most are 20 mins long
also, dont download more than 1 on 56k, your connection will get shared between them, and take twice as long. |
