OTHEREARTH / News: Recent posts

Mabye some of you wondered about the long silence from our side..."No more screens?" - "No more news?" - "What's ahppening with you guys?" The answer is that our team had many holes to fill and so we kicked some guys out and are regrouping atm. So this could also be your chance to stumble into the team! We changed parts of the code to Python and so we also have to retask and do all the re-stuff... our aim was to release a pre version by x-mas this year, but we are unfortunately not going to make this. Release date is to be X-mas 2010 for the beta version and 2012 for the full version so keep being excited ;)

Hi folks,
I'm glad to announce that we decided to honor Sourceforge, our beginning and so we will change the license of the client to open source, to let people learn from our work and also give new people from here the chance to bring their work into the game :)

Hi Folks,
we are closing the source so unfortunately we will have to move away from Sourceforge. Thank you SF without your help nothing owuld have worked!
Our new website is here: http://otherearth.netii.net

Yes it is!
First of all I would like to welcome 3 new Teammates!!

Jack,
Rodney
and
Tsvetan

Welcome to our team!!

Adrian will do a new sort of Roadmap the next days, which will show you the current state of the project in percent and the parts in percent. It will be viewable on the website, keep watching the next days!!
And last but not least we got a new Screenshot, it is not much, but the first output from our graphics guy Aleksey, so you see we did very much the last month, keep watching!!

So we have made a very big and wide ranged decision. We will start this project completely new. This means it wil be reseted to 0, that's the bad news. The good news is that we will use a better graphics engine: OGRE
(for more information visit http://www.ogre3d.org/\)
To give the user a better experience in-game.
We also started to plan everything completely new, every little detail. But this takes time. That's why there hasn't been much news last time. But otherearth's development is going on and on and we will keep you informed so stay tuned!

The Website is finsihed in 2 languages, yet. there will be improvements in language for the English one, soon, the German one should be perfect. The French one will be made by Nizar, our great web-developper soon.I want also to mention that there is a new feature at the website, a map where all of our developpers can be seen, just look into the developpers section of the site.

We also like to welcome 3 new developpers to our team:
1. Marvin he is a new Designer
2. Dan also a new Designer
3. Aleksey a new Developper... read more

Thanks to out great developper Nizar, our project got its new style website, for beginning it's only the homepage, but it gives you really the game's feeling.Seeing this we are curious about Nizar's next masterpiece! And he also said he would translate the page into French, so at least the page, maybe the game, too, will be beside German and of course English also in French! And also the mapping system makes steps to it's way up, for more progress keep an eye on the tasks!

We would like to welcome our two new developpers who joined the team! First nizar, who will manage our porject's webpage and then Anthony, who will program the game. We are sure there will join more developpers in the next time and are also looking for everybody to join our team!

The first source code package has been released, I hope it works, if there are any problems, keep up posting.

We have 2 new Devs, Marijke and Andreas.
And our first release date is the Sylvester or new Year. But we have no Server yet, so we can't say when it wil come finally, for more information about the current development state look in the tasks.
