Now this is just a suggestion, so no need to beat it down to Zealously if your on of those people who dont like others attempting to add anything to this community.
So for a start im aware of the obvious:
Maybe over Ambitious.
It's a bit late. Three years on..
Not that constructive critisism isnt good, just plz if you want to whine, take it elsewhere.
Now, why a PXO2. What does it mean, and most importantly whats wrong with the old one.
Nothing, but PXO2 could bring a Focus for the community at large (Those not already involved in projects) and some unity for the
single player MODers, FREDers and the Multiplayer pilots.
Now what Id like to know is:
A. is this a feasable projects.
B. is the community willing to participate.
C. how popular is the idea.
D server, legal constraints and other issues.
The Idea:
Freespace 2 MODed Multiplayer.
A kali or Heat stlye page with IP connect properties. Everyone has the MOD installed, New ships, wepons etc. One standard pack, removable like Derelict etc. So simple to use or remove.
MODers create this downloadable pack including MODs ships tables etc, which could be voted in by the community (I understand there are limits to how much can be altered)
There could even be various packs eventually. The possibilities are huge.
One thing which could be developed would be a ranking system similar to that of PXO.
Some Possible CGI PHP or comparable?
Initialy wed run a very basic framework, just geting players together and linking them by IPs, starting FS2 Automatically and such could come later.
I can see there being problems but im sure they are surmontable. If you feel a glimer of exitment at this prospect please voice your support here. Or on the topic in the VBB.
Epo-out
