I'm really glad this project is still going. HW2 is a superb engine for space strategy mods. The graphics in the origional game are amazing (i was running it with an obsolete video driver and it was still one of my best!). I'm looking foward to future developments for this mod.

Keep up the work boys, i WILL be playing this!

EDIT: Whoops, sorry about the double-post. I thought i'd cancelled that one. I tried to delete the old one but i can't for some reason. Could a moderator please delete it.

Nice, bit unstable however.
Tried a player vs cpu match but the AI didnt want to build any fighters or anything else as it seems.
Also, leviathans (this is post fs2 campain config) dont manover themselfs to aim with their beam, instead just staying on the one plane.

Nice!

I'll still have to play standard-HW2 a bit more before I give it a try. And currently I'm working my way throgh InfR1 (I'm very late, I know :sigh: ) ...

I was a great HW1-fan before the SCP popped up - should have around 1000 screenies lying around somewhere (on CD/DVD of course - not printed out!!! ;) ).


Oh, and what did I read somewhere above - there's an HW SCP, too? :confused: :wakka:
If so, where is it? :confused:

No code improvements in the sense of the FS2 SCP yet, but this guy is porting it to Linux.

@Mav you're right you're very, very late. I finished an Inf R1 about 10th time somewhere a half year ago :)

You guys should put in an option to designate a single fighter or bomber "alpha 1". From that point on, the fighter would be invulnerable, but the rest of his wing would try to kamikaze into him. Also, he would never have less than 5 enemies shooting at him at any time.

I suppose the obvious question is: when do we get to play with the new toys?
