Last month we showed off what the new guys were making and they’ve continued making progress, with the MG34 and MP40 currently in their capable hands. Once they (they being Jenn0_Bing and Rick_D) have done those, then all that’s left is the Enfield and a few minor tweaks to the K98 and Bren’s.
Yes I did say Bren’s as in multiple…
Cpt. Ukulele has also been hard at work with the never ending requests of prop models following on from his assault on the door handles. We’ve also had some fantastic help from some voice actors so you’ll be belting out orders in British, German, Canadian and Polish! We’d love for some more German voice actors to get in touch though.
Last month we sent out a plea for some guys to help us finish off the mod. Luckily for us at least two people were listening. We welcome aboard Jenn0_Bing and Cpt. Ukulele to help us finish off the weapon skins and map props respectively. Like a good taskmaster we threw them straight in at the deep end with Jenn0 starting work on the K98 almost immediately and Ukulele tasked with the vital job of creating an army of door handles…

Sorry for the super long wait between news updates, it’s just been real hectic over here at Ham and Jam. Lots of changes with the team members lives has left precious little time to spend working on the mod, but fear not as we’re still pumping out work even if this update shows little of it unfortunately.
It’s true what they say, the final 10% of any project is the hardest 10% and we’ve certainly hit that here at Ham and Jam. There is no doubt we are in the final phase of production before releasing our first public version, it’s just taking an age to get it sorted!
Two things are certain:
1) The bulk of the work on the mod is done, what’s left is minor…but a lot of minor stuff makes a major stepping stone.
2) We have come too far to let anything stop us now.
Work on the mod toils on through the long Summer nights here at Ham and Jam and slowly but surely we’re getting there. Every day more and more bugs are quashed and more and more features are added. The stuff left to do is trivial compared to the rest, yet without it the mod feels incomplete and unreleasable.

Lots has been happening with the team in our separate lives, but progress is still ploughing on at a rate of knots, especially on the testing and bug crushing front. The last few tests have been very productive and have resulted in many bugs being found and fixed especially without new deploy code.

Ham and Jam is a teamplay orientated, first person WW2 multiplayer game centred around the British and Commonwealth campaigns from 1939-45.
Historically accurate missions coupled with careful balance between realistic and enjoyable gameplay makes Ham and Jam a unique experience.
Ham and Jam will be a free mod when it's released but it does still cost us money to develop. For example, our SVN server costs us £200 per year to keep running.
Help keep the Ham and Jam development rolling along and make a donation, even if it's just what you would have spent down the pub tonight. Any money left over go towards veterans' charities.
Ham and Jam is supported by:
