Just a bit of nostaglia and regret. I had high hopes for this project at the time. Sucks that it died.

Yea, I remember. Was part of the dev team before it died. All I can say is that everybody from the team was disappointed how it went. We really wanted to release at least something, but because of legal problems we weren't able to.

Yea I was quite active on the forums. It would of been nice for the project files to be released but ah well.

It really did look like it was quite far along. I also think they choose a good engine instead of sticking to JKA. I think an issue with sticking to JKA when making total conversion mods is it is just seen as another mod for JKA and does not attract new players. A standalone project can in my view attract more people.
