We at DSF Productions would like to mark our return to the OPFlash StarGate with the announcement of our new project 'StarGate:Challanged Empires'.

This MOD is being designed as a new Multiplayer Game Type, where players from two different teams, human and Gou'ld will travel from there homeworld through the expanses of space to colonise or enslave the worlds they encounter.

Think large battles based around controlling the gates of various worlds, each with their own strategic value or resource.

BMP's vs. Gou'ld ForceSheilds, whilst 302's battle Deathgilders above.

Each planet settled will allow passage to the next, gate addresses can be recovered from ruins all this leading up to the invasion of the enemy homeworld.

If the Community likes the idea then we'll start, if not then it'll be shelved.

Give us your opinion and ideas.

Sounds very nice. Will it be for OFP or ArmA?

[Deepsmeg]

OFP

[Dingmatt]

Then ported and enhanced to work in ArmA.

Sounds like a great idea Dingmatt, will we see updates to the current SG-related addons or will you release everything as a mod upon completion?

Btw do you have a new homepage for this project? Can't access www.dsfproductions.co.uk/ ?

[Dingmatt]

I will be updating and releasing new StarGate content as its developed for the MOD, our server is currently being upgraded but will be back online shortly.

Check www.OFP-SGC.com for current updates.

Great idea Dingmatt, thought of doing that myself a while ago.

Are you going to be using existing addons or making more "high detail" ones? (the gate is great by the way but things like the deathglider and jaffa really need to be updated)

If your going for new content i'd be willing to lend a hand, just pm me if you need some help.

I think this answer your question (technically it was answered before you even asked it you just didn't see it):

I will be updating and releasing new StarGate content as its developed for the MOD

So it sounds like a bit of both.

Off World Gate Activation....Iris is Open....

What a RUSH!!!!

I think it would be great!!! I would actually start playing MP again...lol

I am working on a map for the GAW Team and I'm almost finished with it, but I also have been working on a very large Stargate map like the one from Lukemax, but right now I'm trying to get it totally lag free. Without looking at it I think it has 56 planets on it, but it may end up with less planets to reduce lag, but still in the 40's. I will need some testers for it when I'm done with it. Lukemax will get credit just for making his Stargate Worlds maps....That's what gave me the idea in the first place. I'd like for you to see it....maybe you can use it for Challanged Empires if you don't have someone making a map for you. Just a thought.

I know you know about the description.ext file not being able to add music to it and working without an error message, but once that is fixed people will be able to get some good music in to drive the mission forward. Music at the right time and place really gives the mission momentum. I saw what Walmis wrote about putting it in the cpp, and I'm looking forward to the update. Oh, BTW I found a way to add music to the file, but it causes an error, and then the player has to hit the enter key to get the mission going again, but alas that would be rather annoying in the middle of a mission with every piece of music played lol.

I know it's also been said that the first wormhole won't be put back in, or added for variety, because it's too long. It's not that long {about 19 - 20 seconds long} and it really rocks {like the shorter 2-3 second version of it}....A quick little break to get ready for anything that may be on the other side of the gate . My opinion on it is I like it and have a 2nd MOD folder that I use for it. I'd like to see it put back in to add variety. That to me is what Stargate was about...being able to travel between worlds using the Stargate. That is a just 1 great feature of this Stargate MOD to me. *** And no, I'm not asking that you put it in, it's just my opinion.{manual dialing...love the address notebook. Great touch!}

Thank you for taking the time to read this....
I'm enjoying all the Stargate addons to date....
Excellent Work to all!!!

Good luck with future addons for Stargate....I'll see you on the other side of the gate........

Wormhold Disengaged....Iris Closed....
