Any more News on the Ham and Jam Front?

[zone trooper]

I was just wondering how things were going on with the Ham and Jam mod, I really hate it when a mod you like and want to play goes all quiet for a few months without any updates. Black Mesa Source did that, they didn't update the website since January but its updated now.

So is the mod going well and has there been any new memebers to the mod team ?

zone trooper, they'll say when. And how. And where.
You can guarantee that as soon as they have some real news they'll tell us.
Please keep up the mapping, I look forward to a new/beta/different/altered map. :icon_thumbsup:

Yeh I'll keep up the mapping. :D Still looking forward to this mod I just wanna know more about some of the maps or weapons etc.

And find them some animators/coders.

[zone trooper]

They could look on FPS banana if they wanted to. :)

Keine news on ze H&J front

[Chris]

Yeah most mods get the point where they need to find an animator before they can finish up. Basically animators are like trying to find a needle in the hay stack.

[zone trooper]

FPS Banana is one place to look for animators, coders etc but trying to find a good and hard working coder, animator etc etc is very hard.

Errr I've been on holiday most of September/October so I haven't done much and GL is back at Uni with a massive workload.

I'd forgotton about the news update. I suppose I can find something to write about...

Write a day to day diary of your life ;-D

November News? :P

[Jed]

November isn't over yet.

[zone trooper]

They will probably post it either just before December or a little bit into December.

[fess]

Can't post news if there isn't any to post I guess :P

[Asskicker]

It's the 6th already, post something :D

[fess]

I think this thread has come full circle... you may as well read back for the reply you'll probably get ^_^

[Jed]

Im going to skip an update this month because, to be frank, we haven't done bugger all worth talking about! :D

What with it being Xmas everyones been doing more enjoyable things than sitting in front a computer.

I promise to do a proper update at the end of Jan.

[fess]

Good lad Jed, cheers ;)

[Asskicker]

Thought so, was just asking ;)

[porc-épic]

Does anyone check the ham and jam email?

[zone trooper]

Theres a Ham and Jam email?

[Jed]

Usually mail goes to myself and Gingerlord but I haven't recieved anything for a while. Did you send something via the forums or did you send it to a specific address??

[porc-épic]

jobs@hamandjam.org

[Ginger Lord]

I've got it in my inbox to be sorted through along with a host of other emails.

[zone trooper]

jobs@hamandjam.org

If I was a a good enough mapper then I would apply for a job at Hamd and Jam. =)

But I'm not, still need to learn alot of things.

[porc-épic]

This isnt realy worth a new thread but is the "respawn_entities" (it lets anyone crash a server) still in? In nearly every mod I've played the first release still has the command in.

also I don't want to be rude, but have you read the email yet?

Well I don't know if it's "fixed" but in HaJ it's flagged as a cheat variable so the server has to have cheats enabled to allow anyone to use it.

If you know of any other evil console commands let me know.

restart round I think it was, in Zombie Panic Source, the devs by accident forgot to block restart round so everyone could use it. They patched it up though.

I know you don't like people asking to beta test but I would just love to try this mod out.

We also planned a internal playtest for October but it’s been delayed for a week due to school/work commitments with the team. We’re considering bringing a few trusted non-team members in to help with testing, possibly even forum regulars, but at this stage it’s just under consideration - don’t get your hopes up too much!

[Jed]

When we have something more playable then we'll start assembling a new test team. At the moment my focus is on getting the gameplay code done.

It's februari :D

[fess]

No, it's February ;)
