-----------------------------------------------------------

Update 1

ill be working onwards and in worse cases...i can convert it to whatever engine i choose

-----------

Update 2

-------------------------------------

Update 3

reopened and working on it again.

now we have moved it to quake engine. and it has a slight name change which is HQM until a better name is suited ( but ill probably stick with it )

SO.... anything post #161 and on is current news... as everything has been discarded ( remodeling and retexturing.... hopefully for better quality )

Freaking awesome, PSPdemon! Looking very much forward to it, the DE2 looks amazing (for everyone else, search for its gallery) to work with. Do you happen to know circa when it will be released?

Good luck, you have my full support! I'll try to come up with suggestions for it.

Release is TBA, because it all depends on when DE2 is released....or when i can get my hands on its map maker

right now, im just working on what i can in DE1 so when i make the move to DE2, itll be alot easier ( just have to make maps and add additions that may be included into DE2

)

Right now im working on getting the set of hands in so that when your in first person....it doesnt look like your one handing a two handed gun...

The first release will probably be a basic release.....more of a demo if you will... itll have...

1 type enemy
1 gun ( i have to make sets since MC and AI/NPC's have to be handeled differently with each gun )
1 map - probably a little beta map to test things out ( weapons, enemies, ect... )

Im having a little trouble with MS3d exporting the MD3's correctly...though i may have a soulution ( though its time consuming.....but well worth it i suppose )

If anyone wants to help me find fanmade/user-created models ( not ripped from the game ) i would appreciate it... as i t would make the process easier and possibly make the release of this mod come out a little quicker

Also, screnshots of exsisting maps or fanmade maps would help...and possibly pictures of the stylizing of the halo universe ( so i can make the levels and feel of the world feel haloistic )

Ill post updates as they come.

Thanks for Everything,
PSPdemon

Great announcement PSPDemon

thanks for the heads up, you legend

Nice photo/screen, PSPdemon! :thumbup:
BTW, I have a Dungeons engine 2 game concept too:

[POC] DeSpair

I have a concept (currently just in my imagination

) of the new game (DeSpair), based on DE2...

Something beautiful in techo-gothic stile (like Quake) + "fairytale" fantazy art elements (like Okami) with the classic hardcore FPS gameplay...

I hope, DE2 will be powerfull enough to realise the ideas... and I also hope, that I won't be too lazy :-)

P.S. And a music example: http://files.filefront.com/autumnogg.../fileinfo.html to reach the aural nirvana in the Despair...
