"to prepare for disaster is to invite it, to not prepare for disaster is a fools choice" -me (kim-lav_coyote25-metcalfe) - it used to be attributed to unknown - but adding the last bit , it now makes sense.

well...
warzone 2100 was a fabulous game, unfortunatly the emphasis is on was. for what ever reason the company went belly up and there is to my knowledge no longer any form of official support or development.
Resurrection is exactly that...after "most" of the ownership rights for the game are now public domain. these die hard techno heads, have been rewriting the game in a working form thats legaly free. both trying to fill the gaps that have been left by some things being with-held from public domain, and general fixes and upgrades to make it better than the "real thing"
There is a lot of work still to do, because there arnt many with the skills AND devotion to the cause to fix the backlog of issues, but they are doing a miraculous job!!
PS. hey Devs, maybe you can set up a registered charity and link us a paypal segment .when you have enough cash you could pay a freelance team to do the yukky big jobs!
that covers the tech stuff..as to the simpleton's understanding (e.g ME )lav_coyote25 wrote: Links to the changelogs changelog for 2.0.x, changelog for current development trunk

We write code And I don't know for all the other devs, but I'm much better at writing code than articles of any form.Radiated_Snake wrote: Strange that devs of project didn't write that... or something more about project.

hehe my pleasure.
like i said they are all techno heads
i have devotion but not the skills these guys have, which in some ways is a blessing because i can see things from a more general point of view, but i would chop off my right nut to be able to do the things these guys can with a set of 1's and 0's !

Don't chop off your nut(s) yet! Playing around with 1s and 0s also known as bits is better known as "bitfucking". That has a reason: we like to look at things from a more general point of view as well (i.e. a higher level of abstraction). If we wouldn't look at things from a higher level than 1s and 0s we probably would take years to get anywhere.GiGaBaNE wrote: i have devotion but not the skills these guys have, which in some ways is a blessing because i can see things from a more general point of view, but i would chop off my right nut to be able to do the things these guys can with a set of 1's and 0's !
