    im pretty sure that they said there WILL be a ns:source, but they are still deciding on the engine to put NS2 on.


    also on a radio interview i remember tyrnemesis saying that a port would probably take about a year, but then i think flayra said that it would take less time than that, but i would bet on it taking a year or so at the rate that some of these other mods are going.

    isn't it against the rules now to create a topic asking this question?

    First off... asked so many times it's ridiculous so the answer shouldn't be hard to find.

    But to answer your question, they are seriously considering doing a version of NS on the HL2 engine. At first Flayra was considering it based on how well the HL community adopts HL2. Now that HL2 support is strong it's pretty much a given though not official. (ie. they're probably not working on it yet) As far as we know they don't know if they're going to do a direct port first or redo alot of the art before a release. I would support a direct port (as well as they can given the complexity of the code) with art updates as they come, personally.

    As always, it will be "when it's done". Don't expect it this year for sure.

    There's also a texture remake project going on in the mapping forum for NS source textures...

    The current official answer is <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=35' target='_blank'>in this thread</a>. Further information on the future of NS is most likely to be given out by Zunni, the PR specialist, Nemesis Zero, who keeps in contact with the dev team, or Flayra himself.

    Not much else to say in here that hasn't been said before.
