Ouch. IllFonic knows why the community forked the project, makes me wonder if they're pissed off at alienTRAP.

If everything is, ok its a bit dramatic, but lost, it would not feel good at all.
Especially since I have not taken the time to show my love for "you guise aka the community" by getting busy with the wiki here and transfer useful stuff over here.

For those who didn't hear yet, it was Vermeulen who shut down the AT forums.

I said we should get them archived right when this forum started, but i didn't follow it up, ho hum.
RE: alienTRAP forum closed - Roanoke - 08-02-2010
Vermulean says it's a temporary thing.

This was in an email to one community member.

just kidding
RE: alienTRAP forum closed - EvilSpaceHamster - 08-04-2010
Ive been behind the times....clearly. But whats this about FAKExuiz running on cryengine 3 now? What happened to darkplaces?
RE: alienTRAP forum closed - Roanoke - 08-04-2010
Well, I'm not completely certain how they could ever have tried to use dp on a console, probably easier and cheaper to just use an engine already written for the console.

How much did they PAY for DP licencing?!

They would pay nothing, but I think they would spend some money on making it usable under consoles. And for a big pity - they wouldn't contribute those changes for the rest of the community to benefit from them.
Anyway - they're devleloping team might be used to CryEngine, and they might would have to learn DP from scratch. Also - I'am sure CryEngine is more powerful than DP.
RE: alienTRAP forum closed - EvilSpaceHamster - 08-05-2010
actually, they would have to have paid for the quake engine, in order to dissolve the GPL. CryEngine is both more powerful and expensive.
RE: alienTRAP forum closed - Roanoke - 08-05-2010
Yes, but you must understand illfonic is a small group of people. In terms of manpower, it would be more expensive to port dp.

uh oh. Vermeueln told the turth.

RE: alienTRAP forum closed - Mr. Bougo - 08-05-2010
DarkPlaces does run on consoles (see their GDC prototype), and they did at least have plans to get a license from ID software for the Quake engine on which DP is based.
They are now using CryEngine; I don't remember seeing any official statement on why they did that change, though.
RE: alienTRAP forum closed - Roanoke - 08-05-2010
Good to see the forums are back up, I wonder if links are now broken.
Also interesting to see the new priorities - zymotic, another DP game, has been cut and focus is now being placed on capsized, the game everyone forgot. I'd rather they made a good zymotic than capsized, but it's not up to me.
More intriguing is the fact that netradiant is now also in the archive section. Looks like alienTRAP didn't really maintain that, it was mostly community people from nexuiz, tremulous and so on. divVerent.
