  • 4/28/03 - News
    This page has not been updated for quite some time now, as you may have noticed. Now I have a job, quite a good one actually, and my life is getting further and further from modding every day. Job keeps me working long hours (sometimes 14 hours a day) and though it's fun and what I always wanted to do, I'm sorry I couldn't do more for the Red Faction community.

    Got a funny email from a coworker today about this guy who died at job, and no one noticed him until 5 days after his death. There was a thought to this joke: "Don't work too hard, no one notices anyway". Although it's quite funny, I cannot agree with it. So my advice to you is work hard, and someone will definitely notice.

    10/22/02 - Source Files
    So here it is, the source files. I have cut down the source from 2GB to less than 54MB, but don't be frightened, the space eaters were music and videos which are not very important. After unpacking you'll find that every weapon has it's own folder with files related to it. The exception to this is AK47, in that folder besides the weapon files you can find the converters of the max exports to the game vpp archives.
    I have also uploaded the official RF Weapon Examples, because I'm not sure if they are available anywhere else. You can get both of those files from the download page.

    08/12/02 - HIVE Source Code Release
    Since my networking career is going forward (got my CCNA and on my way to CCNP) I cannot continue to work on the mod anymore. But that is not necessarily a bad thing since the work was on hold after 1.2a came out anyway. Now I have decided to go for a new plan - to give up the whole source code of Hive (including absolutely everything I did, even the website). Therefore now I am looking for people interested in continuing the work on the mod. Preferably applicant should have some experience modding for Red Faction, but most of all he/she should have interest in continuing the work on the mod.
    Also you will need to have access to fast internet (somewhere if not at home) because the source is around 2 GB. I will also provide tech support for the source as long as the questions will be intelligent (not like "how do I open .max file").
    If you are interested, please email me @ slidersv@yahoo.com. Include as many related credits as possible.

    06/16/02 - Update
    I'm sorry for not posting for so long. The reason that there were no updates is that I had a change in career field. Now I'm going for Network Designer position. Basically I'm spending all of my free time to get routers and networks going with different bells and whistles. I can't say that the mod is dead - it's just postponed until I get a decent job, and will not have to study as much. The next version will be here, and it will be released before Red Faction 2. I'm sorry to all Hive fans out there, but that's just how things are right now.
