KZMOD gone:(
Where's kzmod, site down;/ Any news?
2 servers, 0 people. Indeed a waste of time. I hope its brung back, i liked the bhop maps.
10/12/2013 02:48So anybody knows what exactly happened to kzmod ? Have the authors just decided to go away and forget it ever happened, after having dissapointing amount of visitors ? Or are they coming back?
I mean..I do admin my national community and its very dead on our site comparing to years 2010 2011 but Im not gonna shut it down lol. What was the point of giving so much effort to that project and now not even have a website running ?

Future is unclear right now.
05/01/2014 19:37it was quite a punch in the face for the devs after developing it for like 7 years to find out not many give a damn, sadly. it was very fun and refreshing imo.

It actually took them much less than 7 years considering that they took a few huge breaks but in the end yeah it's still a lot of effort in vain, must be really disappointing. They made some good attempts at promoting but after a couple of months it's totally desolate. I on my side though, play kz_bhop_wtf every now and then, find this bhop mode very enjoyable, don't think I'm gonna give it up any time soon :)
PS formatted my pc just now, might need help with installing/finding installation files for kzmod soon.
05/01/2014 20:45wasnt it written that the last patch the last was when there is no activity incoming?

06/01/2014 00:29You guys think kzmod is gone just like that... you were the non
helpful when it was released , cus u just played it 1 day and didnt like it much or left and thats how ppl didnt pplay it alot ..
me: i loved it , specially that challenge MOD on 1 map where u can jump so high .. and the long maps ..
and imo i dont think is gone its just that soulfather is more busy than you think in real life and he can't manage it anymore , being busy studying and stuff is more important that KZ... but who knows im sure will be back again !
kzmod is made very good and shouldn't be just like that trashed remember it :D
peace.
08/01/2014 02:24Its been a long ride folks. We always tried to deliver something that us kreedzers like and have fun with. We never tried to split the commmunity, ruin 1.6, make a lot of cash and kill XJ (Yes, this was actually brought up by some tinfoilers) or anything negative.
We just made a pretty cool Kreedz Mod that features everything thats fun about our hobby plus many many more fun additions all in one game.
We did good, no matter what ppl might say. We cant force anyone to play it tho, and everyone is perfectly fine to say that they dont feel it and stick with 1.6. I personally still enjoy both games and am happy to have been part in the process of creating this game. And its not, like the title of this thread says, dead.
Its there, anyone can still dl it, play it, make servers, create websites, cups and whatnot. It depends on the players now.
We are all still here, lurking, playing other games together, working on "things".
Anyway, developing KZMod was an absolutely awesome experience and i call it a success whether ppl actually play it now or not.
Peace
08/01/2014 08:34Why doesn't KZMod becomes a part of XJ? It can live through that.
Kzmod isn't dead. One server is on and I play it sometimes.

Actually I was the top1 recorder for a long time, I really really liked the game, I thought it was much better than kz in 1.6. However, I quit because of lack of content (compared to 1.6) and because it was dumb to be playing on publics alone. Recording was close to pointless, there hadn't been a release for around 1½ months when I decided it was time to stop trying. I really did put my best effort in keeping the game alive, to show gratitude to soulfather and all of the developers who I thought did a fantastic job.
I hope we could get the game going once again, perhaps I could make a new comeback then to KZ (I'm considering myself inactive again)!
Before it got released i was testing out the game and when i played it for the first time i enjoyed it alot, but since i don't like to play most of the time, i prefer editing, i took a look at the campaths n stuff just to see how shit is made there, it was the same like source but with one little exception, the campaths were laggy as hell, Raptor told me that he couldn't just yet fix it because it was something inside the engine, the way demos are being recorded is not like 1.6.
I was going to support the game and make as much clips as i can if that campath lag didn't exist.. Because i like the detail inside the maps, but yeah since its not fixed i can't do anything.
One of the people that made this mod what it is today is Soulfather, he's been offline in steam since 110 days, so
the only way to find out if kzmod is gonna rise again is to ask Raptor, the main dev.
27/01/2014 02:07(edited 27/01/2014 02:14)It isn't dead.
Problem is, if it aint broken, you don't fix it. The gameplay doesn't really need better graphics. 1.6 jumping is fine as it is, as a jump game, the one problem is that whenever 1.6 shooting dies, KZ can never grow. That's why it's important to step out of the 1.6 shade. KZmod does that and KZ now has a game of it's own. It's in no way a bad thing. Maybe some day it'l change, but I doubt it. Unfortunatly with all the history and all the known maps, plus a steady stream of newcomers converting from shooting to KZ I doubt that KZmod will become the standard go-to.
