Title: Tachyon Hosting Fix & Mods Now Available
Post by: JGZinv on January 17, 2008, 08:51:17 am

For those still attached to this old game, I've produced a fix and mod set
for getting multiplayer operational again.

It took forever and didn't quite get all I wanted into it. But here's the finished files:

Tachyon Service Bay 1.0b:
http://www.fringespace.org/index.php?name=Downloads&req=viewsdownload&sid=3

The No Fog, No Sun, No Lightning patches listed there are compatible with the main fix and mod set.

Please take the time to read the ReadMe.

Enjoy...

Hope this doesn't mean you're abandoning the FS2_Open mod.  :nervous:

Oh no... never came even into mind. You'd have to kill me, Razor, and about a dozen other
folks to wipe out FringeSpace. Besides that there's BBQ pizza involved.  ;)

Actually this helps our mod because we can get people online and see the differences
and show them the feel of the game rather than trying to explain it.

Really I've been waiting on getting this done so I can start into FRED'ing,
so yet another reason it'll help. There's a few things I wanted to add to Tachyon during
the course of the mod making process that I couldn't because the game couldn't handle it.

I look forward to testing FS2's limits.

"Tonight's match is brought to you by Love's Soda Pep Drink... it tastes golden."

Heard from the Arena Announcer.

I wonder what they put in it...  :wtf:

Should be having a game of Basewars Tachyon... hopefully some arena too,
possibly Sunday evening. Do stop on by and blast someone if interested.

A server has been up for over a week now.

Oh and the Archangel was finished recently for FringeSpace, Phoenix and Shrike
to be forthcoming shortly.
