Read more on this thread for support and comments: [ ALPHA 1.0 COMMENTS/OPINIONS THREAD ]


Please Note: MechMod uses the Tokamak library and since Tokamak is only for win32 and isn't opensource, we are unable to compile for linux dedicated servers. Hence, MechMod is totally a win32 modification as of now. You will have to host servers on Win32 (listen or dedicated) to play MechMod. We are working on an Alpha 1.1 patch where we replace our Tokamak collision snippet with ODE, which will include linux server dlls as well. Thank you for your patience and support in this matter. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Some information from the site :

<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> MechMod is a total conversion of the Half-Life 2 engine and is based on Mecha or Mechs. We have already released a primary Alpha 1.0 version of the mod, which was based on mechs taken from the Gundam and Macross/Robotech series. Alpha 1.0 was a 'test' release which the team put together while waiting for Half-Life 2 to go public, and the Alpha is also considered as a stepping stone towards something much bigger.

MechMod stresses the importance of strategy, player reflexes, and teamplay all put together. Whether you want to play fast-paced and go on the offensive, or whether you want to take it easy and concentrate on building up your defenses - MechMod has all the options available for you. The player has the ability to pick from different classes of mechs and customize them to his/her needs and desires. The customization will not only affect the aesthetics of your mech, but also the feel and usage of it. You may support your team by building structures and turrets as a builder mech, you may find enemy locations or set traps as a scout mech, you may be an asset to the team as an assault mech, or you may go all out on the offensive with a heavy mech. MechMod has been developed to allow the player to take control and take the game in the direction that he/she wants to. The mod also offers different types of game play modes, to help cater to those who might not necessarily want to play strategically, and simply want to crush some metal!<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    It's supposed to be for HL2 eventually, but for now this is just on HL1 engine.
    As far as I can tell anyhow, their site seems to be down at the minute.

    That's their proprietary CrashAlot code. It took forever to get that to work, so don't diss it.

    Would you rather it be about counter terrorism and have realistic guns?
