ProjectsBelow is a mostly complete list of all the cool projects that MG is working on. Generally IRC is the best place to talk about these if you have any questions.
The MG Tremulous Client, created by Tremulous developers and contributors, provides all the handy benefits of a high quality, up-to-date game binary
with all the features you want, such as VOIP support, and without the bloat.
The MG Tremulous Dedicated Server was developed by the same experts who worked on the client: Built from the Tremulous SVN (http://svn.icculus.org/tremulous), it also includes the latest community-contributed features such as rcon logging and semi-pure. If you want a stable, secure tremded, look no further.
The Development Server, available on the server list in any good client (and also using the command /connect dev.tremulous.net in the console) is where the cutting edge development of Tremulous 1.2 is tested. Public games occur every Saturday at 9pm GMT, during which developers are usually present to assess the balance of the gameplay and get opinions on features new and old from the players.
The Patch Tracker is where the code writers of the community go to upload their patches for bugfixes or cool new features that anyone can use, modify and redistribute in the spirit of open-source.
The best collection of funny Tremulous quotes and a host of random others from our IRC channel (see below) can be found at the MG Quote DB, where anyone can browse, rate and submit new vaguely relevant quotes for approval.
Youtube for Tremulous Demos coming SOON
The Mercenaries Guild aims to infiltrate every important global organisation and place high-ranking officials in most governments via the medium of open-source software in an (undoubtedly successful) attempt to change the world.
Sites such as Planet Tremulous which have sadly dropped off the Web due to abandonment or inability to continue maintenance can be hosted on our mirror, to preserve the useful content, and the effort their owners put into them.
A great source of information upon the Mercenaries Guild and the award-winning, free and open-source game Tremulous can be found at our documentation wiki, including general guild info and guides to help new players learn the ropes of basic Tremulous maneuvers.
Helping new players to understand and enjoy Tremulous was one of the principles upon which the Guild was founded. By creating a series of short demonstrations providing an idea of the skills needed to play properly, we hope to enlighten newcomers to how they can improve their enjoyment of the game.
Any awesome or useful Tremulous-related material that we think should be preserved for future generations, nostalgia or humour gets stored here, so nothing great is ever lost.
The git repo holds a number of source trees, either for official, user-owned or other projects. Friends who need some source hosted need only ask and we'll likely be happy to provide either a public or private git tree.
Ever noticed that some map downloads take forever and some are finished in just a few seconds? Chances are, if you're getting a pk3 at a decent speed it's coming from our download repository, which contains pretty much every good mod and map available. You can also access the repo from your browser and download anything you want to play or host in advance.
An amibitious effort to document the main functions and definitions of the Tremulous codebase and display them in wiki format to make it easier for people to dive into making fun and exciting new mods.
Looking for help, or just want some cool people to chat with? Come to #mercenariesguild on irc.freenode.net either with your own client or the handily-provided one (Java, takes a few seconds to load).
