xx Another new alpha 1262
February 21, 2009, 01:20:37 AM by Bahl
Short news for now, since it is late and my eyes are bleeding:

http://www.banntal.de/rivalspecies.com/files/rspecies_1260_u3_full.zip
http://www.banntal.de/rivalspecies.com/files/rspecies_1260_u3_to_1262.zip

The server is back up as well ^^, so feel free to give it a try and report the bugs in replies to this news thread.

xx Happy New Alpha 1261
January 01, 2009, 08:35:25 PM by Bahl
Yep, it's time for a new alpha again. I figured the first of January would be the best possible date for the release. Just like the last one, it is a public pre-release alpha. To me it already feels a lot like a beta but i know there are quite some bugs remaining. So again, join the public Tester Team, increase its numbers and get cracking at this new Alpha version:

http://www.banntal.de/rivalspecies.com/files/rspecies_1260_u3_full.zip
http://www.banntal.de/rivalspecies.com/files/rspecies_1260_u3_to_1261.zip

simply download the two files, copy ".._u3_full" to Your Half-Life 1 folder and extract it with the directory structure in place. You should have a new modfolder called rspecies_test afterwards and a new entry in your steam games after a restart of steam. Afterwards, extract the patch to alpha 1261 to the same mod folder and you should be updated. While extracting, you should be asked whether to overwrite existing files. If that doesn't happen, you're probably doing it at the wrong place.

And as a little eyecandy on top, I'm showing off the latest finished vehicle weapons for the Cadian Guard: The Sentinel Auto Cannon, Multi Laser and Flamer! They've been finished by ChromeAngel and started by someone else of whom I don't have a record of the name anymore.

Yes, I'm late and I feel like a dwarfed version of my former self when writing about this... BUT we do have news for you!


The 'new' model for the Cadian Guard spectator class borrowed from the old observer head by Illpenguin.


The new models for the Tau Spectator and Specialist classes. These are actually rather new and we still lack the full set of weapons to include a full fledged map for playing them. Jiggaman and Jove did these models ages ago and Olimnuz recently finished the skin for the tau drone.

The weapons we have for them are the following:

They are also all 'new' and dandy by Jiggaman and mostly Chromeangel. In one case I'm not 100% sure anymore though.

Plus, I'd like to draw your attention two news below! There I'm still updating a public alpha (currently at update 39) which represents the current state of development and also has a 24/7 public server. Our current beta doesn't seem to be played anymore, but you may find some testers on the public alpha server on very rare occasions in a year.

Oh and just in case you didn't notice: Yes that is a new logo :-).

Oh well, and according to the news_agenda, I should write about the following:
- kroot hands by zenarion
- kroot rifle by zenarion

xx GIGA GAMES Passworded server
May 20, 2008, 05:25:48 PM by Sgt Booraem
Giga-Games has put up a 16-person RS server, administered by T-Home, but it is password protected, and I cannot find any other servers available.

Does anyone know the password for the GigaGames RS server?  if so, please post or email to hbooraem at excite dot com, or IM me on Yahoo as (lowercase) MRDADX6.

Thanks!

xx Prerelease of Rival Species Alpha 1260 (update39)
April 30, 2007, 11:27:58 PM by Bahl
The next Rival Species Beta is getting into sight! Since the Tester Team has somewhat dwindled in numbers, I need You to test the new version and give feedback for its balancing and debugging!

So join the public Tester Team, increase its numbers and get cracking at this new Alpha version:

http://www.banntal.de/rivalspecies.com/files/rspecies_1260_u3_full.zip

simply download the file, copy it to Your Half-Life 1 folder and extract it with the directory structure in place. You should have a new modfolder called rspecies_test afterwards and a new entry in your steam games after a restart of steam.

+++ update +++

By now we have a patch for the current alpha running on the server:

http://www.banntal.de/rivalspecies.com/files/rspecies_1260_u3_to_1260_u39.zip

It fixes quite some bugs concerning performance. I hope with this fix, the version gains a lot in playability.

I have started a 24/7 dedicated linux server with this version, so you can fully test the multiplayer game. Have fun, and be prepared for the bugs and imbalances!

Report any of those on our new Forum:
