Hey guys,
Not been around much, as I am working on a new mod with some of the guys from Project Reality. The new mod is called Offworld: Fall of Mars.
We are doing it in BF2 (not 2142) and it gives people without 2142 something fun to try. We have come up with some pretty good physics for some light vertical take off and landing craft. The mod is based on Mars and the maps are done by using real NASA and European Space Agency photos and topographic maps. It's basically like being on an exact 3D copy of the Mars surface.
You can find details and our open DEV forums where you can read about progress,etc at www.offworldmod.com
Also, we just released the first public beta/demo this weekend. Planetbattlefield.com has put up a DL miror for us here http://planetbattlefield.gamespy.com/fullstory.php?id=150111

Novus Ordo Seclorum
Knowledge is power... has been since time eternal. Arcane knowledge is thereby ultimate power and can
therefore lead to ultimate corruption. Wisdom (and the experience that comes with age) is a serum for corruption.
Perhaps that is why there are so many Old Men with Arcane knowledge and so few young ones...

Saw a couple of you on our test server over the last few days. Thanks for trying it out.
Please feel free to register and give us feedback at the site www.offworldmod.com
We have been getting good press this week. We were featured in the battlefield podcast, as well as most the battlefield news sites.

Yep.
We have only been working on it for a couple months now, but we put out the public beta/demo last week to get peoples feedback on things. We are aiming for a very different mod for BF2 than anything you have seen, and at this point a "flying only" mod. If interest is there, we may move into things like ground pounding, AA / Tanks, etc., but that is yet to be seen.
