Since the official masters are going down November 1st, we'll be re-re-releasing the game for free on a new site. So, we'll need a few submissions from the community... and if it does get used, you can have your name listed in the credits.

A few of the things we're looking for are:

Screenshots (for the website and full installer)
Videos of gameplay, trailers, etc (For the website - Youtube is fine)
Ideas for fixes to the game that should be made
Any additional content you think needs in (GUIs, missions, shapes, textures)

(can be optional content)

Any idea you get can be helpful, don't hold back.

PS: Also, if somebody can do a few of the 512px player skins that weren't included last time it could help. They should be just the base skins, so they shouldn't be too difficult.

Are we legally allowed to re-release the Tribes 2?
Anyways, I think that terrain textures could be more better and maybe some more new "buildings".

They Are going down?

I'm not exactly sure what I can do, maybe if somebody suggests something...

A red screen? Well thought.

Here's a few screenshots. Not much, but looks nice.

I've been looking for something like that ever since I started playing construction. Now I won't have to use the boogie pads to get the emotes.

Harris · October 2008

How do you do "screenshots"?

Dark Dragon DX · October 2008

|WarWolf|

How do you do "screenshots"?

Press "Print Screen | SysRq", usually found above the numpad.

Eolk · October 2008

Press "Print Screen" on your keyboard.

Harris · October 2008

How do i post it then?

Eolk · October 2008

Attach it to a post.

Harris · October 2008

Thanks..

What are you talking about? Stay on-topic, please.

Oswald · October 2008

I think we should setup a combat night and take screenshots of a massive battle.

DS=Dragonstalker · October 2008

I am learning modelling(yes, i typed it wrong) whit Blender, so i could try making new buildings and other stuff.

Oswald · October 2008

I think I should try creating custom shapes for Tribes 2 in Hammer. Hammer used to be the Worldcraft editor so I can configure it for Tribes 2.

There should actually be a construction mod included with the full installer, but we might need to put up a download vault of some sort for people to use.

Blnukem

I could re-vamp the current T2 music to sound newer.

I'll throw the bonus tracks from the soundtrack in with the game, maybe put the soundtrack up for download on the site.

If any of you have the time or are playing in combat servers anyways, it'd be a big help if you could take screenshots of any big firefights you see. If you can run it at high resolutions or use a screenshot script to remove the huds, all the better (though not required - huds are fine for the shots on the site).
You might stick them in a zip archive before attaching as well, they'll all be watermarked otherwise. The more the better though!
A fight night would be good for this. I know a couple other communities already hold them, but if we really need to we could increase the player limit on TX and stage a few scenes, or throw up the BC server with a combat mod.

There's "Torque Constructor" as well, which I'm pretty sure you can just toss dts models into for size references and such. Should be free on the garagegames site.

Mine is best for lazy or forgetful people who don't click on their construction mod client.

I've got a shitload of pics stored, so I guess I'll post up a few. Some classic dog fighting scenes in CCM and ACCM. As well other miscellaneous junk, like battles, fooling around in construction, and some completely random pics.

Blnukem · October 2008

Some more pics. (Some have numbers for some reason, I guess I was running Fraps at the time.)

My internet keeps crashing when I try uploading the file... I'll look into the issue later, but for now what you get is what you get.

My IP Connection Script. Player type an IP into the box and hit the Join Button:

Not a bad idea, but you might notice on smaller resolutions that something like that wouldn't fit in very well. However, I'll make sure there is a little button on the join tab to bring up the IP entry box.

Dark Dragon DX · October 2008

Maybe my in-game scripting utility? Just needs to be cleaned up a bit..

FooCumber · October 2008

I've got a building in the works right now. I'll finish it this week and upload the building file and the screens
