Reunion On The Horizon
« on: January 11, 2006, 02:33:33 PM »
Finally at last we are able to say that the next Outpost Universe reunion event is on the horizon :) It's not far away now, but the question is when would you like it? When is the most convenient for you? When are you sure that you can make it online for some or all of the weekend?

The options are as follows:

February 17th - 19th
February 24th - 26th
March 3rd - 5th

The reunion will include:
- Outpost 2 Update (New version of Outpost 2, version 1.3.4)
- First 4 missions for Outpost: Renegades, a new single-player campaign for Outpost 2.
- More Outpost 3: Genesis info and screenshots etc
- Possibly anything else that gets submitted in time :)
- And more.

We would like final versions of people's projects they wish to include in the Outpost 2 update by one week before the reunion. These may be maps, colony games, tools or whatever.

Also, if you're working on a project please don’t release it until the reunion. The more we can have released at the reunion the better :D

Most people I’m sure will be able to put something into the reunion. Everyone can have a go and produce something to release. Map making and coding is now easier than ever! There is plenty of help available, just post on the forum and you'll get help. Try the new mapper if you haven't already! Maybe you're a graphics person, then produce a Outpost wallpaper, or graphics for a new tileset :) Whatever you can do, or want to do, we're here to help and we would really appreciate it if you helped and gave some input to the community. And remember anyone can add content to the wiki, it's a community thing and we need all the help we can get.

The result of the poll will most likely decide when the reunion takes place.

After 12 votes, it looks like February 17th, and that day is getting closer :)  
I didn't vote, since it doesn't matter much to me when the reunion is: any date is fine for me.
Rule #1:  Eddy is always right
Rule #2: If you think he's wrong, see rule #1

Well, any of those choices i'm working 2 of the 3 days, I might show up for sunday, but it isn't likely seeing as I don't even have the up to date OP2 installed.

Well, you'll have to reinstall OP2 anyway because v1.3.4 will be released at reunion time.

A little note to anyone who's planning on having something released at the reunion, for example, new OP2 maps or whatever.

You MUST have the final copy to one of the team members on or before February 11th. This is required because we need about one week to thoroughly test and package the update. (If we have a problem with your item during the testing, this gives us time to get in contact with you so we can resolve the issue).

Anything submitted after Feb 11th might not get into the update except in very limited cases.
