I really have a bad feeling about what is happening right now...
Richy seems to have been gone for quite some time... Antarki also seems to have been gone ....
Meliritos can handle the moddeling.... Caius and Filibusteria made great job with the map...
But what about historicall information ? We have no historically accurate unit list for Chachapoyas, Chimu, names are missing for Diaguita and Aguaruna...
What about the buildings ? Settlements ?
I think we are very, very farr away from releasing any sort of beta version.... actually, comparing to other full modifications, we are not in a bad situation - as farr as i have seen at other mods, it took for them almost a year (sometimes even more) to launch the beta of a total conversion ....
Howewer, for the sake of the morale of our grup, i strongly suggest that once Meliritos finishes the Inca models and Caius the map, whe insert them into the game and launch a pre-beta version just for us, featuring for now ONLY the Inca, the Mapuche and maybe the Chanca (depends wich are finished)...it would be good to have something playable (even if with limited playability), something on wich we could make progress.
It would be good to use the :mod function, because in that way we would keep a clean copy of RTW 1.5 just in case...
with respect, Rex Pelasgorum aka RexDacorum

Off course... we cannot have models walking on the battlemap with no skins

dont say such things... the worst you can do is to give up. plus, we have been in this for only 3-4 months, the crusades lasted 1 year before a release. We'll do it!!
I think the beta release should be the h. battle I posted months ago. It wouldnt require the map, at least, just the inca and the mapuche.

Ok, we'll release a custom battle release to rack up interest.
In order to use RichyG's unit stat calculator, I need the skins, after that it will be very quick to get the units done.
How many factions do we want to have in the release?

Inca, Chimu (they can be made now), Mapuche, Diaguita (most of Diaguita can be skinned after Mapuche), and Aztecs.

Hmm, it would be good if we could release the custom battle pack in less than one month... That will atract interest....
I hope in one year and a half or so we will completely finish the mod and the expansion...

Rex, why are we including the Aztec?

I was about to ask the same.

You are aware that those would include a whole different array of models and details that should be worried about later?

I know the Aztecs are a big part of the mod, prob the second most important faction, but they are a huge step away from the south american factions that the mod focuses on... I know there is alot of diversity between the south american factions as well, but it would be a whole new field...
