Wavelength, and all the other sites hosted on Wavebot (the name of the server) are moving to a brand new data centre, and a brand new server. We'll have lots of disk space at our new location, so lots of growing room for the neat plans we have. Now for the bad news: the move entails a few days of down time, while the DNS updates. The website will be taken offline at some point on Monday (August 2nd) evening. The website will pop back online the moment your ISP updates its DNS, which usually takes 24-48 hours.

Well, people seem to think the mod is dead, due to lack of updates, although we are working on it quite a bit...Guess I need to post some sort of update.:)Ok, so here goes...StoryCurrently we are finishing up the mission sequences, and starting to develop the storyboards per level while we tie them all together in one dramatic story. Its going quite well, and I think that C&C fans will not be let down, and non-C&C fans will enjoy the well played out plot.CharactersWhile I originally had my doubts about showing some of our internal artwork until a later date, I have decided to go ahead and release this as one of several that will be released over the next couple of months to show the evolution of the game.Blackhand Elite Soldier - Pictured below without helmet and goggles (as per shown in C&C Renegade).Crazed and frightening, as well as biologically suited into parts of his armor, the Blackhand Elite Soldier will strike fear into anyone whom he crosses.Buildings yes, thats right, a building!!!General Usage Nod Building
While originally planned as something else, this building has made its way to the "general use" i.e. we will actually let you see this one pile of art. Created by one of our new concept artists (Gifny), it is quite a marvel, and shows the up and coming power and financial backing of Nod. Plated with solid glass windows along the arches, it really is an architectural masterpiece.NOW stop thinking we died off, we are just concentrating on pre-code (non-game related) and art.Good day.

The deadline for competition maps is now Sunday 8th August; this is due to my current out-of-the-country situation rather than the usual deadline whining that goes on
