Making Progress!

Yes, you heard me right! And I'm not blatantly lying!

Ice and I are hard at work on missions and the good news is that we're getting some results. I've finally got one mission totally completely finished, which is to say it's got dialogue in-mission, directives, goals, debriefs etc.

The other good news is that other missions are coming along well. I've done 2 in the past 3 days, and the dialogue for the demo is pretty much complete. Ice has been working on 3 other missions, and one is almost totally done.

So good news! Maybe we'll be done by 2003.

Actually....our very first mission in the campaign is also near completion. You may think it strange, but we haven't been building missions in order that they will appear in the campaign. Its been sort of haphazard...but trust me, thats a good thing

Isn't that usually the best way to work though in a long set project like BWO?

I've found it works that way with LoK and WWC.

Depending on what gets added...proably closer to 15 MB. The missions themselves are puny. Its the added stuff. CB's, sound effects, texture maps, etc. We'll know more when were much closer.

The CB's would probably be an optional download since there is no consequence for not including them.

Since everyone seems to have gone deathly silent on this forum, I'll just drop by and tell nobody that another 2 more missions have been fully balanced out by myself, and another 2 by IceFire. In addition, we've got lots of WIPs, of course...
