Here's a small progress update.
Hostile Intent is really steaming up right now and progress is going fast. Thanks to Lacos, our web guru, you can now check our progress and assignments right here. Make use of this. It shows in detail what the assignments are and who is working on them (or who SHOULD be working on them).

I joined the HI team because this is the first half-life mod I've come across that I actually want to see succeed. not that I didn't want to see CS or NS succeed, but they already had huge followings by their 1.x releases. besides, those were closed projects -- they listened to the community but weren't as willing to invite them to participate -- and at the time I had come across each of them they were already well underway. This is one I can really contribute to because it is already representative of my ideal version of a realistic first person shooter, and it is at a critical point where the results could make or break it. Number one on my wishlist for this mod is to see that it overtakes the title of most popular fps from counter-strike. Sorry gooseman.

I recently decided to join the mod community. While I have been regularly hacking the half-life sdk since it came out. I played HI and liked it so when the chance came I couldn't resist.

In other news, Crazer finished the new armskins which will have map dependant sleeves. So don't worry if you think it'll be cold when you're running round in a snowwy map as the way they are now. Here they are, thanks Crazer.
