Homeworld 2's Kinda Neat

After playing Homeworld 2 a bunch, I realized how badly I'd actually like to play an updated Wing Commander mod. The gameplay is spread pretty well between small fighters are larger capships, and with the production element of it all, it's almost like a real time 3D Armada game. We've also had some more questions about the original Homeworld Wing Commander mod. Support for it dropped off about two years ago, but a page that still exists with information for it can be found here. An early beta is available to download. Some newer files can be found here (GameSpy account signup required) as well. Check out Hadrian's neat Confed logo from our Homeworld 2 game the other night.

Freelancer Reckoning WC Mod On Hold

Bob announced at Crius today that the Reckoning Freelancer WC mod is on indefinite hold for now.

Well, for one thing, I completed everything I set out to do, with some notable exceptions. Almost all the ships I wanted converted have, along with weapons, and I'm satisified with their stats. I think the progression is fluid enough, as well. If there are any future changes to this, it will likely be at the expense of the ship skins, which I fully intend to upgrade to WCS standard once I get off my lazy ass and get around to asking Tolwyn.
