kavoven 4 Posted August 28, 2004 Hi, I don't want to post in the train topic, because I want to announce other things, then just the train. First, here is the last pack of Screenshots, befor the release, taken from Phoenix Island. Some of you expected a surprise or something like that, well, we have in fact a little surprise for you  Click to make them larger You can watch the other shots Here The whole island is completly retextured, with Resistance and other, new textures, as you can see in the images. Then we got another project running, as a small replacement for the campaign. We call it AEF-Lost Projects. It'll include alle the Scripts and Addons we made for the missions, including our Kilo-Class submarine, an IR-Camera (Yes ), and other usefull and effectfull scripts. (Ever tried to bomb your enemy with a seagull?  ) Edit Oh, I forgot the CV, Commander View, which will make commanding large squads easier I don't want to say something about the release date, because Lester is or was in hospital, I actually don't really know, but I haven't seen him for days. All I can say, is that the engine finaly reached the 1.0 stage, but a few bugs appeared, and we'll fixe them first.  Regards, k@voven www.aef-campaign.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kavoven 4 Posted August 29, 2004 I would compare the size of Phoenix Island with that of Nogov, perhaps even a bit larger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theavonlady 2 Posted August 29, 2004 Then we got another project running, as a small replacement for the campaign. AEF Campaign - dead? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kavoven 4 Posted August 29, 2004 Yeah Perhaps I'll do something, when we've finished the whole train thing, but I'm the only active mission maker in the team, and our missions are complex, with many scripts, I can't do that alone Other things are, that we wanted to do some missions with our Kilo-Class submarine, but Winny, had left the team long time ago, and the version you saw on the screenshots is still on our server, and no body knew about it, until I discoverd it a few days ago. Actually, I'm not very happy with the story at all, because it was too much rewriting of it, like replacing that missions, putting there another in and so on. I think half a year ago, I pulled some mission makers in our team, but only one managed it to do finish a mission, then he had so much to do with school... When the first steps of this project were taken, we had so many great ideas, and we DID fnish many of them, the IR-View for example, or the Commander View, they're working, but I don't have the time, to do all the missions, because I need more then 1-2 weeks to finish a good mission, with which I'm content, and that includes many hours of testing. Anyway, we do contentrate now on the Island and the addons and we'll finish them as soon as possible, and after that, I have the time for new missions, and perhaps some guys, who want to do them with me, because Phoenix Island is great for new missions, I just discoverd yesterday one area, in which you could make some pretty nice infantry fights Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-ZG-BUZZARD 0 Posted October 3, 2004 Just look in this thread I should recognize the thread, since I started it... Oh well, guess you're busy doing one thing at a time, which is good... only, since I liked the first trailer so much, I hope that the second one will also be a blast!

theavonlady 2 Posted October 24, 2004 Quote[/b] ]AEF campaign dead? Yeah Perhaps I'll do something, when we've finished the whole train thing, but I'm the only active mission maker in the team, and our missions are complex, with many scripts, I can't do that alone Is the campaign still dead? Because the end of your just-released train video trailer says the campaign is coming soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kavoven 4 Posted February 6, 2005 So, after all I was able to dig this thread out I got some news for you, concerning the Phoenix Island project. The island is finished now, and I'm waiting for the final version of two fences(well, I'm waiting for it since 2 month...) I think I'll do a demo mission and there is another one by dumbscream from the AEF Forum. Further there're many missions from the old campaign project, but I do not think they're good enough for a release. It just not that quality I want them to be. Actually I'm working on a FDF campaign on Phoenix Island, because with FDF I don't have to script the effects, that's nice And the bad news: I'm the only active member left in the team, sad I know, but the captain stays on bord until the ship has sunk ^^ So don't expect a train update by AEF, but perhaps by another group, I don't know if I can say the name, so I won't say anything at all. But I trust in the skills of this group And at the end a question: We good our addons in diffrent PBOs, A_H for example is the house PBO, it includes alle the housing stuff, A_S includes the signs and so on. I think it would be better if I leave them seperated, because IF there will be an update, you just can repleace one PBO and don't have to download the whole package, because at the moment there is neither a checkpoint(that one in the trailer video) nor the train bridge, because there's no one to finish these things and I won't publish any beta stage addons. I worked on some new houses and perhaps I'll find some time to finish them and make an update, but don't expect too much. House Nr 1 Regards, kavoven http://www.aef-kampagne.de ps. Some last screenshots of the final version Screen1 Screen2 Screen3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lockheed Martin-ch 0 Posted February 6, 2005 Well that's not nice, that's terrible news!!! Â Â Hey guys, what's up? Lester, why're you leaving us behind? What about all the knowledge going lost with AEF breaking apart?? My godness, I'm shocked!! Â Well, farewell my friends, may AEF rest in peace and live long in our memories, and may we learn from your addons the knowledge you had to produce more such extraordinary addons as you did, in honour to AEF! That's my "EffectStandSalute" to you guys, hope to see you again with OFP2, to another addon-producing time. But k@vo, release the island for sure, it looks great!! Would be a shame if it would sink with the ship..! Regards Your still-can-not-believing Lockheed Martin$ch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MEDICUS 0 Posted February 6, 2005 And the bad news:I'm the only active member left in the team, sad I know, but the captain stays on bord until the ship has sunk ^^ So don't expect a train update by AEF, but perhaps by another group, I don't know if I can say the name, so I won't say anything at all. But I trust in the skills of this group What? What about Odin? Does he now only work for his "new" team? Too bad But anyway, the island looks great! Looking forward to it!
