Seeming as the "help wanted" ads never really attract any attention, I thought I'd do away with the concept of "hiring people2

...Of course, I'll keep my existing members, having pernament staff is always a good thing (maintenance and all that)

So basicaly, PlanetEarth is now open-source, I'm still debating whether to go with SourceForge, VisualSourceSafe, or develop my own CVS/CCS

Comments?

I manage a modification for C&C:Generals - Zero Hour

This mod is called "PlanetEarth"

It has been under production for the past 6 months now

We've gotten virtually no-where, even with 4 guys

So I've decided to make the mod "open-source"

This means that anyone can see, access, download, edit, change, and otherwise modify the mod's assets

...Whenever they feel like it

I hope that this will result in a better mod overall

Comprendé?

Mods for the SAGE engine are essentially always open source. Anyone can open your ini code, edit your texture files and import your w3d files. I would laugh my ass off endlessly if your mod was hosted by source forge. I suppose you could release what you've done so far, but it doesn't look like much if anything. :/

[DarkSideDave]

We've got waay more, only we've never released it

I've just created my SourceForge account, I hope this works out in the long-term

LOL! People modify the mods they download anyway! How could this be any different?!

Ease off the caps, AOLboi

...Other mods don't give you access to things like texture sources (*.psd), 3D Model originals (*.gmax and *.3ds) and other things, only the raw output

Besides, people who make modifications to mods hardly ever see their work put back into the mod now, do they?
