Topic: 2.0 is here!!

After a sensational success to the launch of the reverse engineered server, Angus and I have decided it's time to take it as far as we can and launch the 2.0 client.

This boasts 1024 x 768 resolution. "WASD" keyboard movement. Single touch action keys (No more ctrl + #).  A more refined GUI.  Dynamic action bars. And most importantly, Client stability.  Hotkeys like Ctrl + R are now Shift + r.  Space bar will now scan a target directly in front of you, hit it again and you will target.  If that's too long for you, just hit Ctrl and it will target anything in front of you in one go.

As some of you will know.  We are still limited to what we can do with the Client, as they are closed binaries.  However, we have been able to patch the client to support "Crew" which of course was not present in 2.0.  Angus took it a step further and managed to allocate memory for the use of more hulls.  This is normally done by the compiler....The old scanner has also made a comeback, allowing players to select them selves and see power and crew. Shift + H has also been patched to heal crew. As well as an old 2.0 bug that left the red target overlays on ships, even when you tried to use shift + b to break attack.

What's next? Well..... Put it this way.... We are looking for 3d modellers....

Supaz, Angus.

Re: 2.0 is here!!

sounds sweet. keep it 2d imo though. I think its part of the appeal (and nostalgia). You can put your GREATLY appreciated efforts towards enhancing aspects of the game that people have been asking for forever, ex. PvP.

Just my 2cents though, I could be the minority.


Regardless, awesome work on everything and keep it up.

Re: 2.0 is here!!

Aye we will be keeping a "Top down view" guess some would call it 2.5D.
