[Scrapped] Mercs & Marines Redux

I never got back to working on Mercs & Marines, as may be obvious in hindsight; a lot has come and gone and has my attention these days. It's a lot to remake, a lot to reanimate, a lot to reimplement, and there's a lot of other stuff I could be doing - new stuff like the HDF, or other games like GTTOD.

While I don't know if anything will work in EA26, I'll keep the file up in the event it does and people still want to play around with it.

Toting 99-round rifles that bark explosive-tipped death at 900 rounds per minute, the US Colonial Marines are known by many as the ultimate badasses - so, what's better than a mod that gives you the tools to be the ultimate badass?

The sequel, of course!

____________________________

I, of course, am Krev, and this is Mercs & Marines 2 - the beta!

Intended to recreate the human arsenal of the ALIEN franchise, as it turns out it takes a while to put together the fifty-plus weapons i have planned alone, and it's already been months since the last public update. So, rather than make people wait longer as summer finally ends, why not open testing to anyone who's interested?

Packing the usual icons such as the pulse rifle or the smartgun, the redux is meant to take things a step further wherever possible! Be it new models, new animations, new effects, or all of the above, I want to see exactly how much I can pack in.

This said, not all ideas are good, and I've only got so much time to test them, and only so much time to hunt down bugs. So, if something's wrong or you've got ideas, let's hear 'em now!

____________________________

Note - when the mod exits beta, this page will be removed and the weapons, skins, and vehicles will be separately released so you can pick and choose whatever parts you want.

The beta will end when I have put enough content into the mod to fully replace the first version of Mercs & Marines.
