Lugormod

Lugormod refers to a mod originally created by Lugor that featured RPG-based levelling and character progression, as well as ingame entity manipulation which would become the staple feature of Makermod.

Development

Original mod

The original version of the mod was released on Filefront. This version did not receive a large amount of attention but the mod slowly grew in popularity due to its ingame map building features and RPG design.

T2

At this point, Lugor handed off the development of the mod to Robophred. Robophred went on to include many new features, and the mod became incredibly popular, with only a few spinoffs. Quite a few notable servers came and went, such as Tidal Lugormod and Nexus Lugormod

EUKA

EUKA refers to a fork of Lugormod which never became quite as popular as T2 or U# due to its requirement of a clientside. The Moo clan maintained this version for a short period of time before it was discontinued.

U#

After T2, Robophred began work on U#, which included highly-requested features such as new scripting and an all new entity interface. After U# came about, popularity began to taper off, due to large clans such as Clan Atlantis moving on to other games. Regardless, the features were highly praised at the time.

Jenova Proxy

Following the community rolloff from U#, only two main clans remained: !!BOSS!! and Jenova Lugormod, lead by the once-infamous hacker, Tiger. Jenova Lugormod developed its own proxy of the mod, which included several exploit fixes and a heightened player cap.

Features

Lugormod included several features which were to become unique for its mod. These included entity manipulation, map-building, and complex, almost MMO-like character progression. The community has however been scolded for its rampant trolling and Laming.
