    Okay, by looking at the current voting results on the main page, people want more votes. I'm currently working on an epic single-player adventure, but I'd also like to know if anyone would be interested if I made a fairly simple multiplayer mod.

    Basically, you'd buy equipment from shopkeepers, run to a teleport point and get teleported to a playing field. You'd then have to take your "item" to it's scoring zone. When that happens, everyone is killed and sent back to the start. Or something like that. Of course, you'd get to attack people as they were trying to run to the scoring zone.

    1. How many people would be interested in a mod like this? If I don't get (serious) replies of support, I won't bother.

    2. If you do want it, suggestions are welcome.

    Personally I'm rather interested in a single player mod. Could you give some more info on the one you're working on?

    That's coming soon. Rest assured, it's on a new world, I'll do my best to rebalance the magick-tech items/system, there'll be plenty of followers. Hopefully I'll be able to release the first couple of areas in a couple of weeks.

    The following features are planning on being included:

    - Gangs, and extensive involvement with them
    - Kidnappings
    - Hunting down the members of a secret organisation and exterminating them
    - So on and so forth.

    I think it will be rather cool, and the plot is extremely convoluted (and in parts, extremely farcical, but that's all part of the fun isn't it?).

    I'd defintely be interested in some MP Arcanum fun, and the one you are planning sounds a laugh. I'd probably only wanna do it for a kick if a few ofr the regulars from here would get together for a bash at it.

    I've never played Arcanum MP. I'll try it and let you know if I'm up for your mod (if you'd have me). Good luck on the project!

    Go to Options (from the main menu) and select the module you want (Arcanum is selected by default). Then start a new single player game.
