Finally, I got Steel Storm 2 base code running using idTech 4 GPL (Doom 3 engine) !

Someone asked for third person view and I am not sure we will allow that in FPS mode. I personally don’t like TPS view in FPS games.

As opposed to what exactly? More articles pimping Valve with very little new content?

At least there is something new here.

I would add some more colors and maybe a moon. All looks gray in gray, not really interesting if you are not color blind. Has a bit from night vision view.
