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 (update4)
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 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_u34.zip

It fixes a bug which stopped the player from using his weapon and buttons. 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:

xx Tau Battlesuit weapon combinations and Necron hands
April 13, 2007, 05:55:28 PM by Bahl
recently (actually quite some days ago) Jiggaman finished the models and skinmeshes of the Tau Battlesuit weapons! Dont let your eyes be fooled by the low polycount, it is a requirement. The model is absolutely decent and currently in the progress of being skinned by the man himself.



+++ update +++

JiggaMan has finished the skins of the first of these weapon combinations. So enjoy the little update and the new image!

On other notes, i have finished the Necron hands skin, so that we are now able to finalize the Necron weapon models. They are already in the current alpha version (complete with effect) but they lack their animations. We are now at version 1.259.

Last but not least, Zenarion has started working on a towershield for the BT terminators. That will allow us to finish the thunderhammer weapon combination for close combat terminators. he will provide a new tactical option: a rather slow moving, heavy armored 'tank' that is able to clean any strong position within his reach.

xx New Server, Pre-Christmas Gaming and Developement
December 22, 2006, 01:10:16 PM by Bahl
Merry Christmas to ya all! And here is a not so little Pre-Christmas present for your RS gaming pleasure :-), brought to you by the Ordo Xenos! Hop over to the forum thread http://www.rivalspecies.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1225 and congratulate them to their stunning decision to host a new RS server these days! Yep, thats right, you read correctly! We have a new server AND it is available 24/7 AND it has an opening christmas game today! Most likely in the evening of the GMT time zone. Hop over to http://www.rivalspecies.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1224 to read more!

Apart from this great news, we also made quite some progress in the developement of the next Rival Species beta! Bahl has been hard at work incorporating the missing Vehicles for all the new species in RS (Orks, IG, Necrons and Tau) and adding their weapons. As well extensive internal reworking of the code took place and we finally have real pipelines for compiling the model content of the game. (That will some fine day lead to a high res texture pack for the RS models.)

Except from that, Jiggaman continued his work on the Tau Battle Suit Weapons and Zenarion created the Kroot hands and the Kroot Rifle. As well Meazum did quite some work on sound and animation projects and is currently working on a skin for the Tau battle suit! If he manages to finish that, we shall welcome him on the dev team :-).

Ill add some nice eye candy of the IG vehcile weapons later on, probably tomorrow.
+++ edit ++
Well, it has not exactly been tomorrow but rather the next year ;-). So here they come without further ado; the Cadian Sentinel weapons:
