I don't want to jump the gun too much here but there's been some pretty exciting developments in the last week. First off, Henri (aka Leon) showed me some new skins in progress that made me all warm & fuzzy inside. And these aren't even finished yet. 8O How 'bout some screenshots!

Image Image Image
If that wasn't enough to make me empty my winchester with glee, Zapata shows up out of nowhere offering up his modelling skillz! We'll have to see if Zapata will follow through on his offer to remake the player models. But I have a very good feeling about this guy. 8)

Fans keep asking me when the stand alone will be released. I've learned not to make predictions concerning a date for the SA, but our small team is hoping we can get this baby finished soon. Truth is, all I can tell you is not untill it's ready. However, L3th4l is finishing his work replacing the ID Software textures & the mappers are tackling some file restructuring this week. Thanks to our testers (hola mi amigos!) some bugs have been found in the new version of Hang'em High & the SA dedicated server. These issues are being addressed as you read this. The br version of Lake is also going to see some tweaking to make it more enjoyable. Untill next time, is your name on the stats pages? You gonna pull those pistols, or whistle dixie?!? :P

We've been disappointed before, but I really hope this guy is for real. Zapata obviously does some quality work. 8)

Heh, heh, yah, Red! A Josie Wales quote! And the skins are excellent. I have personally noticed how hard it is to fit a much different skin on an existing model. So being able to get matching new models sure would be cool too! :roll: :D
Well...Mr. Chain Blue Lightnin' hisself..heh, heh!

YAY ! YAY !
What a surprise to see some new work in progress I didn't know about :P !
However, I don't feel that we have to wait Zapata and Leon's works, before releasing the standalone version.
No pressure, guys. It's just very kind of you to contribute to this fabulous game :D

Very nice new skins. I personally hope someone will rework the female face. It's basically Lee Van Cleef in drag. :lol:

You'll have lots of company, Pardner, if things keep up the way they have been lately. We've had lots of good games on Rawhide nearly every night this week. The lead's a-flyin'!

I have a little question: Will these new model be additional or will they replace the old models? I'm asking because we could do for a few more distinguishable charakters.

btw: We (Breli's former colleagues and new colleagues in Muenster) totally appreciate your work and really look forward to the SA with great excitement!

Cheers from Germany

Thanks Marek! We hope Zapata can replace the current player models first before we see if he wants to do anything else. :)
