I'm interested if we'll be able to see new Cube releases?

aardappel will definently not make another cube release, but i am starting work on an ultimate cube project. all it is is the official cube binaries with some mods added in (cube bot etc) and as many half-decent custom maps i can find, all added into the menus, only problem is i need to email all the authors of the maps, get permission off aardappel to redistribute all the stuff in cube etc..

If you can, please make a Mac release when you're done - all the cube modders seem to forget about us.

Well, if you do, you (already) have permission to use any of my maps (enig*) found on quadropolis or my old site (on the front page).

Just include any readmes that are still in the zip files.

wow thanks for the support praxibetel and enigma, the only thing stopping me really, is the use of all the cube textures and models. i believe after all the fuss recently on copyrights, alot of it was put into the public domain, but some of it still remains copyright.. plus even then im pretty sure it would take more than just asking aardappel.

greywhind, be assured there would be a macosX and a linux release, there is no point making an 'ultimate cube' mod if no one other than windows users can use it ;-)

Why not make an addon pack?

not a bad idea i guess, because compatability cannot be broken, no new versions ;-)

So what I do need, is for authors to give me permission to use their maps. enimga has already done so, but I will need others to do the same. also in the addon pack I will include a large amount of free-domain textures, sourced from many places on the net, to encourage more cube maps. servers on the net wouldent have to be updated so thats good. i dont need permission from you makkE do I? all your maps are already in cube ;-)

All my cube maps suck, but if you want to use them, go ahead.

If all that work is to be done, I got one request....

INCLUDE A NEW XSCALE RELEASE!!! PLEASE!!!

This game is STILL revolutionary on these devices, and the version lags behind quite a bit compared to the PC AND MAC versions.

If someone got something new released on this, a LOT of people would jump in it.

I just discovered the XScale version a month ago, and it took me a week to find a download... only to discover the download is the last XScale version- not updated, not cleaned up, no polish, no nothing. Just an AWESOME engine for such a tiny device....

How the hell do I even PLAY it?!

Downloading Win32 version right now just to figure it out...
