A few questions

[jocamar]

All right I'm new here so I don't know if this is the right place but I have some questions:

1) I see a lot of mods announced for this game. Is this game already out?

2) If it isn't then why are there mods already. Do the modders already have the source code?

3) How do I edit posts?

4) Is this game and TLA based on AoE2?

5) Any date as to when there will be a beta?

That is all. And if someone could delete my other topic I would be appreciated.

First welcome to the forums. Second, since you talk about game modification among other things I'd say this place is as good as the other places.

To answer your questions:

1. No.

2. Yes and no in a way. Yes that the modders have the source code (as well as everyone else since 0 A.D. is open source), but no since the main reason is that people have been spending some time on the

planning/designing phase of the mods. (See http://os.wildfiregames.com/ for more info on this.)

3. You click on the button that looks like a pen in the lower right of your post.

4. No, we're developing our own 3D engine for the game. It did however start out as a mod for AoE2, see http://www.wildfiregames.com/0ad/page.php?p=6911 for more info.

5. No.

(And as you might have noticed I've deleted your other post.)

Thanks for the interest, jocamar. I'll just expand a little bit on feneur's last answer: We've been working on this game for years and have absolutely no clue when this game will be finished. The more developers we have on board, the faster it will be.
