imageBUILD 266 NOW LIVE ON STEAM - Natural Selection 2

Natural Selection 2 Build 266 is now live on Steam! Today’s release is the culmination of weeks of hard work by the new NS2 CDT – Community Development Team. A patch that has been developed entirely by the NS2 community – we are very proud and humbled to release it to you all.

This patch was created by the community, for the community and with Unknown World’s blessing.

    This has just been a great day so far. First CDT build, Planetary Annihilation OST release... what more could I ask for? (besides more optimizations, of course... would be greatly appreciated :D)

    Could you guys also officially "adopt" the combat mod? It's a great avenue for players to get up to speed on different alien lifeforms and a good starting point for newbies too.

    @cpt000 no need, Combat is going Standalone, as it says on the NS2 home page here: http://unknownworlds.com/ns2/combat-standalone-revealed/

    Many congratulations, guys! Epic list of fixes (okay, many of them are already in NS2+ :P).

    Looking forward to playing this bad boy!

    (By combat mod, I think he meant the mod not the standalone - I for one would LOVE to see comp combat mod around, none of this xeno/onos/exo nonsense, it's great for warming up before a match)

    “tunnel_allowed” material, which allows tunnel placement outside of nav mesh. Usage: paint material onto a face and put that face in CollisionGeometry

    ^^ Awesome

    I hated the day UWE restricted tunnels to NAV mesh. This will now make the Red Room on ns2_nothing useful again.

    Now I just need to format my computer and reinstall everything since NS2 decided to screw up again this week :(

    Awesome! And frankly, I think I like the phase gate arrows most :D

    These forums are so colorful now, great work on your first patch. :D

    Thanks for the hard work!

    Is the tunnel_allowed stuff working with PhaseGates as well? Would like to add some spots to my maps, but a pg should be placeable there then as well.
