We mostly need help on coding atm, we seem to be severely under manned in that department :(

I haven't spoken to Rad in a while, and I've been away for a bit.

WOW, I need to pay more attention to the dev forums! I had this idea a few years back, and went and bought Torque (I think it was 1.06 when I first bought the license), then Torque Shader Engine (it's TGEA, now). Geez, I hope I still have my models around somewhere. Anyway, I have TGE and TGEA licenses, the Pro Show Tool, and a couple other fun things.

I actually manged to get a scout into the TGE demo:

NO, it's not PhotoShopped! That's an IC scout model inside the TGE demo /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Oh, and I had planned on calling it Allegiance: Grounded. Here's a cheesy splash screen I had made for the client:
[attachment=66:background.png]
I was eventually going to have some terrain in the background for that 'sunburst' to show 'over', like a sunrise.

Anyway, if I can help in some way, let me know.

nice thalgor. have u ever tried porting tge to tgea? if it is easy it might be a good idea to compile it in tgea and have the better graphics etc. talk to rad about what he needs help with. he's in charge of coding!

I spoke to Pook and TE about this and they told me to contact Microsoft about the usage of their name "Allegiance", so I rang up microsoft who gave me an email address and then told me to email them about it, then I emailed them and I havent received a reply since (and this was a very long time ago).

So I'm not sure if we're allowed to use the Allegiance name, so I made up Quantus as the name of the planet on which they were fighting. (But I guess if you are using it, it should be ok, right?).

Afterall, I made it clear that this was a small scale project not one that would be sold commercially.
