Thank you Ultraviolet for answer.
[and I read old ortc web site's news(9-16-06)(Sorry for leaving everyone in the lurch.
It's certainly odd that I can forget that I made (or at least started) a mod for Starcraft called Open Rebellion, but forget I did, for months (years) at a time. However, I haven't forgotten about its history, namely the beginning, where I decided that I didn't like what Acolyte57 and his Betrayal at Geedon V team were doing with their mod and wanted to do something better. In the end, I think I did, but I fell well short of the goals I set for myself. So if you don't like what I did and want to do something better, go for it. And don't be an arrogant jerk like I was when you do.
Yeah, Open Rebellion is dead. I started it for the reasons above, but I kept going because I felt that the experience I gained would allow me to improve my portfolio later on and get a job in the games industry. That plan never really went through and I ended up getting a job at an architecture firm, which was easy because I somehow graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in architecture. To be honest, I didn't have a clue how long I would stay before trying again to do what I thought I really wanted to do. Two years later, I don't plan on leaving. The work is challenging, yet fun, and my co-workers are all pretty awesome, especially the firm's principals. Unfortunately for ORTC, there's a lot of work to do and when I get home, making a mod is so far from my mind that I forget I even made a mod.
Besides, there are too many fun games to play and I have barely enough time to play them all.
That's basically it. If you want to play Open Rebellion Beta 2, you still can; you just need Brood War patched to version 1.10 and no higher. Later patches break the functionality of one or more of the modding utilities needed to run it, which is why many people who try to play it encounter all sorts of broken tech tree wackiness. I might be able to fix it, but I'm not all that willing to.
Even though ORTC is done for, I'm certainly not! Head over to this thread for good times! This will be the last update on the Open Rebellion TC website, so thanks to everyone who ever cared and doublethanks for the fine folks at SME for hosting.).And I want to use star wars X wing hq grp for sc grp.]
