I tought my project idea was original(unique), heh. (acutally, i didn't knew about any smiliar projects)
Some good news again:
I've made a lot of plans at school, and woo hoo i have lots of great ideas!
I was fooling around with hexen, made a little wad with a big open area. I started summoning(with console) a lot of koraxes (the big boss in hexen) and also summoned about the same amount of friendly koraxes. As I watched the fight, i got the idea:
YES! I'll make a hexen version too! Just think about it. Wouldn't it be cool to order your mages, priests, and fighters in battle? Or even the monsters.
Finally, i have been able to defeat my lazyness, and start working on this again. Sad thing is, that i've missed out almost the whole summer, and i mostly didnt do anything, just play games.
Anyways, i'm currently thinking about music... What type of music should be in it? And can i use music "ripped" from other games?

YAY! I thought this was dead!
I would recommend the StarCraft music. there are 3 for each race, maybe there are some good ones? http://gh.ffshrine.org/

I'll try to fetch some music, then. although i'm gonna need a lot of music, because there will be more maps, and one music wont do.
Every time, i start thinking about this project, i get new, and good ideas.
Just to tell a few:
Spoiler: *little spoiler warning*
-There will be droids, which you can control, to build, or repair things.
-You will be able to set a LOT of things in the settings menu. this will be from changing music, to reducing graphics. Music can get boring, and can give a headache, if listened to for hours.... So i'm planning to do multiple songs for a type of map. Also, maybe there'll be a random-automatic player, which will play another different song after the current one has finished. *runs away and makes delay for the songs* lol
As for the graphical stuff... I dont know how, but i'll try to insert a way to delete the useless, lagging corpses. Also, lag reducing stuff, like settable more delay between hudmessages... It may reduce a lot of lag, but the info stuff will show changes slower.
-Hopefully, players will be able to set scaling of the text, so if the interface looks crappy in a resolution, they just need to change it in the settings.
-The building system will be like in RTS games, so you can make a building in a spot for it. i mean, there will be places where you can build stuff. hopefully, if i can do it, it'll be like, you can build more types of building in a spot, i mean, you can choose wether you want to build a big building there, or just a smaller one. if you choose smaller one, you can later build more stuff in the same spot, if it fits in.
-I planned out an enemy AI, which will control the enemy, i mean it will determine what to build, etc. I hope i will be able to do it.
I always get more and more plans for this project, i'm gonna get beta testers or a demo up soon-ish. (Maybe soon, maybe a lot later... depends on how lazy i will be. )
