Some MercNet pics

[npsbre]

From 2005.

The following 7 are resized to 800x600 for the purposes of this forum. I think the map is Spy City.









These two are from a different game. Here's me fighting on the ground with one leg --




Nice looking Mad Dog --


Machine Gun Boat Cauldron Born...

... meets Venom's Summoner, looking a little down...

... but he still has a laser

From today:

NotSid's Catapult keeps taking headshots in various games (two different games in the next three pics).







But here's one on Wolfcub

[NotSid]

Rigged

LOL the One-legged mech ones are epic.

NotSid and I on some user made mission:





I like the look of the MW2 Mercs Cauldron-Born.



PPCs incoming:

NotSid and I doing a user-made "training" type mission --





Eventually you get to this jumping sequence onto progressively higher pillars to inspect these "drones" --

And now a team game (here done 1v1) with a convoy protect/defend objective:

Awesome levels, np! Who was it that made these maps? I'd love to get my hands on this material.
Are there really people who still play Mercnet? Where could I join if so?

[npsbre]

Various people made the maps. I can give MMPD a zip of the missions I have to post (some or all of which were saved by Rocketbird/Striker I think) if he doesn't have one already. Not as many play Mercnet now as in 2005 or so (Panther, Rocketbird, the other BP people, Fehyd, etc.). Freeza played some nice games with the NAIS mod -- flying tanks, etc. . Otherwise, occasional people and most recently NotSid, wolfcub, and I have played a little. Mercnet does require more resources however -- note in the first pics from 2005 (run outside of DOSBox) there are textures, etc. and in the more recent pics I had to turn down the graphics settings to run better in DOSBox.

Cool, that would be great if you could get MMPD to put those maps up in the download section, I'd love to try these out.

(I am a sucker for new maps )
