Hey everyone,
Just a quick message to clarify some of the rumours that have been going around with regards to whether I will be or won't be making FEd2002.
Well, not wanting to keep you in suspense any more, the answer is YES there will be FEd2002.
I know your next question will be WHEN? My answer is "I don't know". Obviously, I'd like to get it out there as soon as possible but because of my work and family commitments it's kinda difficult.
However, I've been working on FEd2002 in my spare time (which I don't have much of) for the last couple of months.
I plan to release FEd2002 in stages, adding more and more features as I find time to do them. Rather wait until the whole thing is completed and release it in April/May like I did last year with FEd2001.
So the first installment of FEd2002 will be very basic. Just thought I warn you that.
FEd2002 will be multi-lingual. I'll need people to translate it to different languages. So if you'd like to help then let me know the language you'd to translate to and I'll contact you.
FEd2002 will also support Unicode characters that means it will be compatible with Hebrew, Korean, Japanese and any other languages that use unicode character set.
FEd2002 is skinable. So all you arty type start design window backgrounds for it BTW, the best size for the background bitmap is 800x600.
FEd2002 will NOT support importing data changes using the ingame Creation Center. Any changes made by Creation Center will not be reflected in FEd2002. I know a lot of people will be disappointed in this but this is too hard and takes too much time to do.
I'll try to answer your questions relating to FEd2002 if I can but please don't ask WHEN it will be out.
Anyway, hope this helps solve the mystery of FEd2002 and just to whet your appetite, here is a screenshot of the Team Management window in FEd2002.
