Most of it sounds good.  I vote that we make Black-Ice do all the work. :)

Seriously though, everything sounds good except its really not up to US as to whether or not this will happen.  There's only so much you can do to it before people have to download extra things in order to play on the server.  You can mod the map all you want as long as you don't change the terrain.  Map changes are fine (yes, blue sky would be nice  ;D).  I agree it could use some new and better models, but that takes time, and would require people to download extra stuff in order to play.  

I commend your effort and dedication to the game!

Particle, does that mean if this vote passes you wont do modeling?

If it passes what stuff will you do particle? Like im sure you can do the 3 zones with the help of Draak and pecker if you teach them.. And the new weapons wont require downloading..Blue sky only requires an admin cmd(ives seen people do it in game) Modeling could take awhile and might cost download so thats optional and up to you particle.. And the NPC's with robes/armors all it requires is to make them not a ghost( meaning you can walk threw them ) and put an item on them.. And you cant mug NPC's anyway ..

So i just want to know what you can do if the vote passes :P

I vote yes.


If I get good in photoshop, can I make some new skyboxes? And, can we have that lense flare effect that you can find in some servers? Perhaps a light source (sun) that causes a lense flare when you look into it?

*edit*
You know what would be cool?  If tenebrae decided to make Tribes more beutiful like what he did in Tenebrae Quake.  I just think bumpmapping and per-pixel shading would make the game just soo much better.

The sun lens flare effect is part of one of the preset skies that can be chosen.  Changing the sky is nothing in the map editor.

It has been finalized that there will be no downloads so half of that is plain outright gone..


WHat exactly do you mean by new sky?

THe zones I had made in the past will not be in the new version unless I spawn them, which is doubtfull

As for new items.. Well... not really.

But what you said hasn't scraped the top of what IS going to be in..

New sky meaning not that ugly orange and black one and change to blue like what Darwin said

Blue sky in the day time and that orange and black one in the night time?

Shouldnt the zones be easy for you and the new weapons wouldnt take a long time..

Come on Ozzy  :-/

Its at that point where its kinda getting boring seeing the same old weapons and stuff...

I mean what about the higher levels..

Its always Mine,yolanda,elven/crypt,den,lair,uber,and centuria... after awhile it kinda gets boring just going to the same old places fightning the same old monsters...

I mean i have an idea for the Hell place..
You can give them claymores and make them those orange minotaur guys which really look cool ;)

Coalchamber has already made some new sword models.  Here's an example of one of them: http://community.webshots.com/scripts/e ... ity=YkOQRt (http://community.webshots.com/scripts/editPhotos.fcgi?action=showMyPhoto&albumID=53317353&photoID=57026874&security=YkOQRt)

The rest can be viewed at the PCRPG album on webshots.com

Yes.
I think a new zone or two, would be nice a few new wheapons,
that would liven things up a bit.

If not Particle, I know that your a very good coder, why not try and make something, that , when people break your rules, they automatically get put in jail for X amout of secs/min.
say they pk more than twice 10 min in jail, instant teleport. lol
mug more than once every 15 min  , twice every 1/2 hr
TA jail. lol
I dont know how much coding that would take but it would save you alot of headache in the long run,,lol

Black..

You don't understand..

There will be NO downloads...

and there can't be any more items than that are allready in a planned update..

The sky changing is a no, because Tribes' poor coding and video cards don't mix.. Trust me, it was in TRPG a long time ago..

NPC's, ingame quests, and zones will be in..

And an auto-punishment system would suck, because Tribes doesn't understand reasoning..

I just remembered that there was going to be a 4th installment of PCRPG for download (later on) when I downloaded my version of PCRPG.  Has this project for it been scrapped?
