Development Testing Servers Renamed

Mon, 11 May 2009 21:10:44 +0000

To clear up a bit of confusion, the MGDev balance testing servers have been renamed to better reflect their official status.
The servers are now called "Tremulous Development Server" and "Euro Tremulous Development Server". You can still connect as always by doing /connect dev.tremulous.net or edev.tremulous.net in the console of your client.

If you are not aware, every Saturday we have large public games to help test the balance changes of the next version of Tremulous. Further details are in this thread.

Help stress test the new master server

Wed, 06 May 2009 16:08:08 +0000

Benmachine has been hard at work making a brand new master server (using python) with some nifty new features and whatnot. Now we need some help in testing and debugging, and would like some real-life info to work with. We ask that server owners please set sv_master2 to master.tremulous.net:30700

Thanks for your continued support while we develop the next version of Tremulous!

Tremulous Merchandise!

Sun, 14 Dec 2008 06:56:40 +0000

We're happy to announce that Tremulous has partnered with the Ministry Of Frag to sell various Tremulous-branded merchandise, the first item being this awesome t-shirt:

A portion of every sale goes directly to the Tremulous Developers, and the rest goes towards other open source type stuff and future merchandise. Check out the [url=http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=9806.0]launch thread on the forums or head right over to the MoFrag website to get your shirts now while they last!

Say 'HI!' to the newest developers!

Fri, 07 Nov 2008 05:28:28 +0000

Development on the next version of Tremulous remains going strong, with constant testing and weekly official games on the MGDev server. In fact, we've recently added two new regular contributors to the development team: Chris "Lakitu7" Schwarz, and Ben "benmachine" Millwood. Both have contributed a large amount of work on Tremulous in the past: Lakitu7 is known for his widely used Tremulous QVM, while benmachine has done a fair bit for the modding scene. Give a welcoming round of applause for the new additions, and make sure to say "hi" if you get a chance!

Quick Update, and how you can help!

Thu, 19 Jun 2008 22:33:42 +0000

We are making progress and development of the next version of Tremulous continues. Norfenstein is still testing balance changes with the help of the Mercenaries Guild, by playing on the }MG{ Development Server you will help us create the balance statistics we need to gauge individual changes - so play on the server today! Instructions on how to join are here.

Khalsa and Dasprid have started a series of threads asking for input for the communities input on various topics, starting with the new website, so keep your eyes open for more of those and have your opinion heard today!

moddb.com awards

Tue, 29 Jan 2008 18:41:43 +0000

Tremulous has placed 5th in the annual moddb.com competition, despite no new version being released since we won the same competition last year. Speaking of which, work continues on Tremulous, slowly but steadily. Most of the non-player visible system level features have now been completed, so things should get more interesting otherwise. The Mercenaries Guild guys have been hugely helpful by working on experimental balance changes under the direction of Norfenstein. You can help out here by playing on their server, thus creating more balance data with which to further refine the game.

New master server

Sat, 21 Apr 2007 19:46:54 +0000

The master server has changed over to a new hosting provider this weekend. As such the IP address is now different. For servers which are using recent patches from the subversion repository this should not pose a problem, but those running the original 1.1.0 release will need to be restarted in order to be listed on the new master server. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Happy Birthday Tremulous 1.1!

Sun, 01 Apr 2007 13:37:58 +0000

The standalone version of Tremulous (version 1.1) was released just a smidgen over 1 year ago, and since that time, there has never been a time when no one was playing!

There have been just over 440,000 downloads of Trem 1.1, equating to 45 TB of data just from our sourceforge.net mirror. We expect a number well over half a million downloads all-in-all.

I've put together a little annotated graph of average player numbers over the last year (almost).

Rest assured that work on Tremulous 1.2 is still in progress and will be ready for play soon.
