Salute!

Excellent work Hakan! :thumbsup:

Sounds like you are quite busy setting these games up, and thanks for the views. :frenchcool1:

And a lot of work done by Eduardo too.

Keep the ball rolling!

Helga, a round of drinks for these fine gentlemen! :frenchdrunk:

Well it's tough to wait for such a small team to get things done but I hope it will be worth the waiting.
Looking forward to see 1:1 scale!

Hope so Christian. We played some hw games course till now since 2009 release but after JMM said new patch will fix most parts everyone playing mp (already a small part of the community as most play sp!?) started waiting that but it took more then expected, really a looong looong time ... and we still dont know when it will come.

I know how that is, another of my favorite games had a patch back in 2011 but it had a serious error that, despite an open beta phase, was only discovered months after release, less and less MP games were played while all waited for another patch to fix the error.
To top that the programmer disappeared for a long time and no work was done, that went so far that one guy made an unofficial fix to the EXE file, after that the programmer showed up again and work was being done again.
But even then it didn't play out well, most of the promised enhancements were cut from the patch and it ended up being just a fix instead of a real enhancement of the game.
All the promised enhancements are now to be added to a new game that should game out before Christmas.

These are all troubles if the development team is to small, and in my case there was a publisher that could have backed development but decided to just sit and wait for things to solve them self, so even with a bigger fiancée good development isn't guaranteed.

So the development of the HW series and the problems within it aren't really surprising, and seeing no alternative makes it obvious that you have to stick to the game even over these dry periods.

Yes Christian.

Unbelievable but still no sign of a new patch after that long time, multiplayer gaming community almost fade away, pity cause we really worked hard to gather some dedicated people. I have difficulty in understanding such situation with this HW.

That's a shame Hakan.....the community really did invest a lot of dedication to the game & promoting it and the developers didn't come through. It started off great, I was even working on our end here with you on it and at the old iNWC. Got to know others too. A shame though. I went to the HistWar forum recently, used to be so vibrant.

Yes Scott but we will continue our gaming activity on NWC as soon as HWN is ready once more no doubt. Hope Christian and Edo and other HW gamers are around still. By the way i posted on NWC topic on HW forum to keep it active there and thanks for keeping Histwar one of NWC games.

The priority is to delete the bugs for pathfinding before implementing the new 3D models. I have also to improve the Great Tactic AI.

I hope I can quickly implement the new GUI.

The new Division/Brigade AI will implemented after the new 3D Models.

After that, my activity will be on the improvement of the internal engine, not before releasing the New 3D Models.

Good to see, although starting testing at the beginning of September and getting it out by the end is a bit ambitious.

Well if it will be just about the collision of units the testing won't be that complicated and long, so I can imaging that he can meet the deadline.
