Hello Ninja,

Can you add me on Steam so we can have a chat? It's way easier to communicate that way.

Thanks.

Excellent work, Olafson! That's amazing. I hope the next update will be a Rebel uniform. I'd love to see if you can attack the irregular look of the south.

Also, how seeing an animation with this solder holding a gun or something? Aiming it perhaps? So we can get a look at the animation.

Olafson can get you up to speed with his work on animations however the uniform is done by Admiral.

Let's give the chap a round of applause!

NW Community Representative Voting!

Hello Everyone,

Each person will get 1 vote, make sure to use it wisely. Also, who you vote for will be public, so the administrators can better watch for potential abuses. After seven days we will take the top ten community members with the most votes and give them access to a dedicated area on the forum.

Some tips for those voting and not sure who exactly they want to vote for. I would say take a look at a perspective persons post history, warnings, and apparent status within the community. Make sure that they best represent yourself and who you would want to see argue for you in the position!

Please use this thread from now on to discuss the ongoing elections.

Good luck!

Information

Please read the below before you vote!

1. A re-election will occur every 2 months.

2. You are allowed to vote once.

3. You will be able to see the results in a week after the voting has ended but rest assured that we will be monitoring the elections.

4. Anyone caught trying to rig the election by creating duplicate accounts to vote will face consequences.

5. Remember to abide by the forum policy and please report anyone who doesn't.

Developer Blog 14 - Artillery Sabre & Music

Hello and welcome back to our Developer Blog. We are incredibly sorry for the delay but we have been unbelievably swamped with developing Battle Cry of Freedom and as such we have a few things we would like to show you!

So, we have been working on several pieces of equipment, but one of our favourites is the “Light Artillery Saber Model 1840”. The sabre was one of the most used weapons during the civil war. It was a single-edged, 42 inches long curved blade and featured a metal scabbard that could also be used as a sort of wack thump ouch improvised weapon of a sort, if necessary. Yes if the idea is popular we can have a look at including this as a feature.

Besides that we have some new ear candy for you. So make sure to turn your speakers up and listen to this awesome piece of music.
To listen to the sounds, take a look at the Developer Blog on our Website, here.

I’m sure many of our backers and probably quite a few of you loyal folk following development would quite like to know where these funds are going. Contrary to popular belief, the marketing muppets have managed to curb some of the teams more bizarre appetites and instead of ordering vast quantities of vodka and cookies, we have dedicated our resources to acquiring much needed support and technology for BCoF!

As well as purchasing our Unity engine licenses, we have been making huge amounts of progress in our 3d visuals and sounds. You have seen many of these so far, but we are actually way ahead of schedule on this front thanks to your support! As you have seen we have also managed to buy the equipment needed to record our animations with, and now have the resources to record as many animations as we can possibly think of!

The only thing holding us back from a prototype right now is the extremely complicated scripting Vincenzo is currently creating, and as Merlin once said “magic takes both time and patience”. Or he would if he knew anything about magic.
That being said BCoF is very much on track and we are all getting very excited about the prospect of an early-game prototype and alpha release looming in the future. Once again, we cannot thank you enough for your support, and we hope that the game we are creating will be more than worth your wait!

P.S. And also some good news for you donators, your wallpapers should be on their way soon enough!

Thanks for reading.

Community / Re: Moderation News & Updates (Happy Easter!)

A concern with the admins letting mods take over; how can we report offfensive P.M.'s if no admins are present but only moderators?

You can either click on the “Report To Admin” link underneath the offensive PM or forward it to one of the forum moderators and if need be, they will escalate the issue to Deofuta or I.


Happy Easter to you lot!
