Happy birthday to PPM! 25 years old!
Our story started 25 years ago when a group of people got together to create a mod for Tiberian Sun called PPM: Final Dawn. We have seen many things being released here, except PPM: Final Dawn. Don't worry, one day, it's still in our plans.
Then, we arrive at the moment when I usually recap everything that happened this year. I am not going to do that this time due to real-life time constraints. This year has been tough because I have a job, I need to pay my bills, and sometimes we have some distressing events with strict deadlines to solve. It just happened to happen in these recent weeks. To make things worse, recent denial-of-service attacks on this server did not help things at all.
However, it is worth mentioning the beautiful celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Command & Conquer franchise conducted by the people from CnCSaga and all mods and community sites that took part in it. Browse them to find many mod releases, and even an interview with Louis Castle. Although it is worth mentioning that the event is over right now.
So, I have at least 4 items on my backlog, and I want to release at least one of them in the next 30 days as a gift to celebrate this date:
1) An TMP Editor with a new way to paint terrains for TD, RA1, TS and RA2.
2) One or more tools to make a more realistic render of voxels from TS and RA2.
3) A MIX editor for C&C Remastered Collection
4) A new completely original tool to rule them all. The others are not exactly original. No more tips here.
This is no myth!
At least one of them will emerge in the next 30 days, since the strict deadline problem should be gone by October 20th (and I hope nothing absurd shows up after that, but it is beyond my control).
And we cannot end this news post with our birthday cake....
A stealth cake
. I just couldn't resist the joke!
Crazy how times have changed, I remember when I set up this account here, when I was in high school... Crazy ride!
I've updated hundreds of D-day's voxels over the last few years and need to make new renders/anims for the website and wiki. Having a new render might finally motivate me to get them done XD
