Can we start to see some more updates? I really like this Mod and I cannot wait for it to release, I just really hope that it doesnt disband or cancel... I've seen some great mods shut down due to inactivity
I'm sorry to announce but Midage was canceled due to some elements of the team. But as promised we're releasing source code and perhaps someone could continue or just learn to make their own gamemode later.
[b]This version is not playable so don't bother downloading for only that[/b]. It's 90mb and only has 10 downloads at Rapidshare.

If someone could host it somewhere else I would be glad.
DL'd, if it looks good I might continue it (assuming no one else has), or I'd be willing to continue with others. Anyway, we'll see :) Thanks for releasing it though, shame it was cancelled.
Another one bites the dust.

Ba da bom bom bom. Love that song.
Also, might not, someone might revive it (possibly me, possibly someone else).
Oh that is a shame because this looked really nice.
The source code will be interesting to look over thanks for posting it.
Edit: Oh and are we allowed to use any models (if they're included in the download) and give credit, or no?
Ohh man.... This is terrible.. was really excited for it to be released......
You can use content, but don't forget to credit the original authors.
We have all learned from MidAge, positive and negative, and that we shouldn't put too much trust in some people. It will have given us lessons for our next project.

Why? what happened?
[QUOTE=t205gorillaz;16812568]Why? what happened?[/QUOTE]
My question too.
rofl runescape copy
Basically, some of those who joined were active for a week, or just never.
Each time a member joined the team, he was given clearance to the SVN, and had to do a playtest with us to see what was done and what was left, along discussing what was planned and what were his goals.
Some worked for a week, did some little things, and some just never participated after the test.
With a core of three active workers, we weren't going far with half the stuff missing.
Thanks to those who supported us.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
I was reading the whole thread from the beginning and i tought: cool mod, maybe in the next pages there is a release date...
:sad: :sad: :( :( :(
If you ever decide to do a new project Anthracite and ever need more coders I'd love it if you gave me a shout (if I am not busy with something else that is I tend to have a lot on my plate.)
Though I guess I am a complete stranger but I'm not the kind of person to abandon something mid way.
Anyway good luck with any future projects and again thanks for sharing the work that had been done so far I hope someone has time to finish this.
Damn mate, I had high hopes for this! Ah well, there's always the next one, we'll be sure to look out for you guys :)!
Our next project is a sourcemod :P

Ooooo Like GoldenEye:Source? Will it be like Midage:Source?? And do you have any details you can tell us?
Not really, it has no links with MidAge, except one model we will use.
:( Buuhuhuhuuh
I really wanted a Gmod MMO.
Come on........
:Sad:
maxolina: Then check out Oldage, it is a similar style to Midage and it looks nice from the videos. Or maybe this game will be finished off by someone else and you'll still get to play it.
anthracite: Well my offer still stands, I have done C++ for 3 years (and have a programming degree.) Though again, am a total stranger, so I still wish you all the best with development.
I looked at this and thought complete salvation, a fun mod that is more than just spamming and fighting. i find it a shame that such a good looking mod is dieing.
but to the modmakers, have you noticed you have gotten one solid offer of help and one subtle one. not to tie people down but fizzadar stated to work on it if its just going to sit there and emz has just offered assistance.
advertise for assistance, ask, accept because i believe this mod can prosper and success will bring on support. If i had any skill id assist but sadly all i can offer are solutions to problems and innovations to intergrate into such things.
as a final Anthracite, if you say that people cant be trusted is a lesson you must understand that people dont throw their trust away to people who deliver a dead cause and then bring a new "dead cause". in other words how can we trust you to deliver your new project if you failed to finish your old one.
not trying to wage war on the modmakers but think about it because and i will use a cliche "those who forget history are doomed to repeat it!"
I've got a mirror up on a premium account, so it won't go down.

more so, if bringing down the mod is really the final decision there is always the option of joining the old age developers and combining skills and ideas to make the ultimate medi age mod.
just tossing ideas because its far better than "were sick of making the mod because there are not enough people working on it and every time we get one we waste time going through it with them". i do have a small understanding of basic programming and i know a task like this is big but the first way to buld it is to break it down. 1. groups, stuff the idea until you build a basic functioning mod 2. have 3-4 basic skills and work on the overall mod so when its done you can polish up the edges and make more, im sure we dont just say "ill build a bridge" and do it it involves different planning on multiple fields, breaking harder tasks down is the key to completion otherwise we just get scared at the sum of work and procrastinate.
i just thought of something though, i would assist with the wiki and some other tasks if need be. just ask me for anything that is under my capabilities. regardless i will be improving the wiki for midage: gmod.
so now you have 3 willing to help hopefully. from this id say your nuts and bolts modding work is now down to 1/4 and if i maintain the wiki for you it takes even more off your plate after all where is the next mod headed if you still lack people (ill give you a hint, there wont be a mod) black mesa source has spent years on their project and just because they kept going, we are going to have a new half life. finally i think its about time i start learning how to make and apply textures (although they are just as easy to find)
It looked good, but would be good if someone could take it over and create it and finish it.
