Hello all, I'm generally known as Gwyned.  I am a long-time lurker on this forum, but finally decided to roll up my sleeves and get more involved.  I am so excited to see a community of fellow Outpost 2 lovers who are willing to invest time and energy into this great game!

I've never really tried playing multiplayer Outpost 2...perhaps I can be persuaded to give it a try sometime...

Hello,

I've been interested in reverse engineering Outpost 2 for years now but I always get too busy and forget about it before making much progress. I've been reading the posts on the topic and I'm fairly impressed with how far you guys are getting. I'm interested in helping out on this (although I tend to be a little busy). I have a fair bit of experience in C/C++ and x86 Assembly (among other languages like VB, Java, Pascal, etc. and some assembly for the Sparc with a bit of 68k, 6502, MIPS, Itanium, PDP-11) I have a lot of experience in finding out how various games store their data as well as tracing though assembly code. I've managed to make various simple editors (Hex codes work for me  :D  ) for a number of games including: Pax Imperia, Warcraft, Warcraft II (not much point I admit), Dune2, Dune 2000 (I actually bothered with graphics for this one :D  ), Civ, Civ II, Legend of the Red Dragon, Usurper, and especially Trade Wars, countless emulator games, etc. Come to think of it, there aren't many games I own that I haven't tried editing in some way.

Anyways, I'm nearing the end of a Computer Science degree (Honours) with a concentration in Game Design. (Actually a combined degree with Pure Math honours and a concentration in cryptography, for those who care  :D  )

So, in short, I can follow along with the posts on the OP2 DLL's, PE headers, etc. and I'm interested in helping out. Anyone working on that stuff want to point me in a particular direction they need work on?

I'm called Philippe. 17 years old and I live in Quebec, Canada.

I played my first Outpost 2 game 5 or 6 years ago . After what I slowly stopped, having only my friend to play with, after WON was shut down. I checked every 6 month maybe what was new in the Outpost X universe, and now I find this forum and IRC channel.

I'm a BSD/linux user since 3 years, I know basic programming using C, php, C++, but nothing big, I'm still not in university and I study Pure and Applied Science into the CEGEP.

I really hope that the user base is still strong enough to improve the game in the upcoming release .. if there is one .. or just to provide a hot nest where we can gather and play a good game when we feel like it.

From now on I'll stay tuned to keep me up to date, in case I can contribute.
Cheers.

Finally got the time to post this...

I'm Cctoide, a name that has too deep of an origin to explain in a post.

I always loved OP2 even though I've only played it for a year or so, and was delighted to hear about the apparent renaissance that's going on.

I'm 11 and I broadcast from Vila Nova de Gaia, Oporto, Portugal.

My interests include PC, PC, PC, lil' bit of HTML/C++, bike riding, and hopefully model railroading  :find: ...

I guess that's about it...

Hi everyone!

age- 16
interests- counter-strike, metal gear solid, final fantasy, morrowind, perfect dark, and op2 (not specificly in that order)

For those of you that don't know me, i was co-leader of the craptastic <sw> clan (that i think lasted longer than it should have) until about the time WON cut off op2's life support. I WOULD still be playing with random people on tcp/ip games, but i have this mean, nasty firewall that wont go away :(

i just joined now, but apparently i was told about this site last month, and i'm so lazy that i havent bothered to check my mail till an hour ago or so...

Hi, I'm FallTime, I'm from Czech Republic, I speek English, Czech, Slovak and now I'm learning German. I'm a programmer, I work with Win2K for programming and Win98 for gaming. I'm programming in Pascal, Delphi, C, VB, VC#.NET, VB.NET, eVB, PhP, Asp, Asp.NET, HTML, JavaScript and ... Amstrad BASIC  ;) . I play strategy games, RPG, Dungeons and sometimes adventures. I like oldgames instead of the new ones ... Outpost 1/2, StarCraft, Ultima Online, Ashavar Legacy, Constructor, Alien Legacy ... ( 2 pages of raw text ) ... and sometimes Counter Strike and Unreal Tournament if I need to clean my mind. I'm currently writing a book, unfortunately in Czech, about one of my most popular games: X-COM. It's called X-COM: MegaMinders and it is situated after the end of Frontier wars and Apocalypse. Wanna know anything more ?

I built my first Altair in 1978 while in high school.  If you don’t know what this is, or why it was/is important then a little history research is in order.  I work and play as a software developer/manager.  Currently working mostly in VB6 and VB.NET (also .NET CF).  I've now worked in or used so many computer "languages" that it doesn't make much difference anymore.  Is there anyone out there who was part of the Outpost 1 or 2 development teams?

Hi anyone who has nothing better to do than read this post (I mean who cares about new posts. lol)!  I'm Mark Cartwright from Belrin, Gemany.  I am, however, an American citizen (a Texan, at that) and enjoy playing Outpost 2.  It is really an outstanding game and would be even more fun to play with other people; but, sadly, I have not yet had the opportunity to sharpen my skills by playing head-to-head over LAN or TCP/IP.
     It's been a couple of weeks (I think) since I've joined, and so I'm finally putting up this introduction/bio.  I have a couple of Q's about playing IRC, though.  Can it be done within a LAN?  Can OP2 be played freely across the Internet even though I may be in a LAN?  I heard that sometimes the IP for every computer in a LAN is identical for Internet servers.  Might that pose a problem?
     I am not an OP2 master, however.  I played it a LOT when I had it 6 years ago, but then gave the game to a friend.  Now, though, thanks to the dedicated efforts of the OPU team, I can play one of my favorite strategy games again!
    Anyway, if someone wants to play a game with me, I'm game.  And, if you want to practice your German, Russian, or whatever, I like to practice foreign languages, too.  Oh, by the way, I'm 18 and I graduated from high school last Friday, June 25th.  Looking forward to some games and chats!

Hello, I'm Nomi, or Sarah to those who know me.  I found this site when searching Google on a whim.  I haven't played OP2 in several years, but I used to a lot back when WON was still up and active.  It's a shame Sierra gave up on it, but we all know that so I needn't lament the fact!

I'm 22 and in college right now.

I like RPGs, strategy games, and adventure games.

I was one of the leaders of the old Jedi clan back in the day, going by:
Mistress Nomi [Jedi]£.  I don't know how many of you remember that clan or its leaders, but I still see Masters Kadesh and Borden from time to time, and Master Kish is my brother, so I see him a lot!  We were founded during the time KORT was still around, and if I remember right, Black Dragon separated from us to form their clan.  I hope there aren't still hard feelings!  Anyway, it's good to see at least a few references to familiar names and events.  I read elsewhere that Snappy is doing well and is at an AirForce academy.  Good for him!  Anyway, I'm off to post in clan threads!
