New Joke Unit: Core Boobies!

Updated Arm Mobile WormHole Generator
zwzsg - December 18th, 2005

Also, the algorithm that converts the aiming angle to the absolute position of the spot aimed at was imperfect, resulting in a range more limited than it should be. Also added many small improvement, such as the blueish wormhole being turned to the angle that gives proper perspective before being shown.
While I was fixing those issues, I also took the opportunity to clean the script from leftover unused code, and to clean the ufo from lingering unused models, buildpics, unitpics, and textures. I also wrote a short manual that you'll find included in the zip. So make sure to visit Wormhole Productions TA Arm Units Page to get this improved version of the M.W.H.G.!
New Spring Section
Gnome - June 4th, 2005
Well, the Swedish Yankspankers recently released Spring, their open-source RTS engine currently based on OTA content. We now have a small section dedicated to the game, including a Maps page and a Source development page. There's not too much on either page yet, they're just there to let me provide a bit more information on them and such. Make sure you visit FileUniverse as well for all your Spring file needs!
TA GUI Hacks page
Gnome - April 28th, 2005
Short update. I just added a new page which has the color hack and battleroom GUI hack. You can access it by clicking here.
TA Color Hack
Gnome - April 25th, 2005
This is a simple little hack. It just replaces some of the team colors in game, and mixes up the ones from OTA that remain. Included are neon green, orange, brown, pink, a greyish-silver color, normal TA blue, red, white, black, and light blue. It overrides all the colors in game, including the minimap dots. You can grab the TA color hack by clicking here to download (121 KB) while I decide on a page to put it on officially.
Quick Update on Yesterday's Map
Gnome - March 15th, 2005
TimmyFred has updated the Freds of War map released yesterday with a minor technical, but rather large gameplay tweak. Rock totals reduced from 400m to 300m on each isle, so you'll have to rely just a tad less on sucking to get by ;) The new version can be found at the TA Maps page as usual.
Holy Crap Another Map
Gnome - March 15th, 2005

Even More TA Mappage Time

zOMG! Update
Gnome - February 26th, 2005

Also, macraig has come back from a two year tax-evasion-by-internet-death, and he's putting the finishing polish on some TA: Mutation mutators to be added here. There's some interesting stuff, stay tuned :)
Rounds of site updates
Gnome - February 14th, 2005
I've just updated the Units pages with a better appearance and better markup. I'll do the maps page tonight, and then maybe other straggling pages if I remember to. Woo and stuff.
Battletanx TA!
Gnome - January 5th, 2005
Finally! The first release of Battletanx is here! This is still an earlyish version, and will only work in multiplayer (the AI does not work yet). It includes most of the tanks from Battletanx and several weapons. If the mod is well received, the rest of the weapons may be added in the future, among other things. Check out the Battletanx page for download details.
Minor site updates
Gnome - July 23rd, 2004
I just finished updating the organization of images and files here on WP. If anyone finds a broken link or image, please send me an e-mail.
Just when you thought we were out of new maps...
Gnome - July 23rd, 2004
...BAM! We throw not one, but two more at you! The first map in today's lineup is entitled Winds of War, an archipelago map created by Grand_Commander13. He describes it as a map best suited for team play (up to 3v3) where you fight for dominion of the two islands connected by shallow water, allowing for brutal ground campaigns. If you get beaten off the main islands, there are still a few islands surrounding it with resources to help you get back into the fight (or to fuel the fight on the main islands). There are also underwater metal deposits scattered throughout the ocean.
The second map today was created by yours truly, and is called Incineration Plains. Incineration Plains is designed for 1v1 or 2v2, but 3 player FFA could be possible. It's a small, fast map with many chokepoints. There are more rocks and metal patches in the middle-ish area, so be sure to fight for it. Sneaking around lava pools is possible and can be very fun on this map.
What are you waiting for? Go to the Maps page to download both of these fine maps!
New Map: Shallow River
Gnome - July 14th, 2004
Today shows yet again that WP is not [quite] dead! We have a new map for you today, a map called Shallow River. As the name implies, the river is shallow on most parts of the map, meaning land units and level one sea units can cross it. Wind is good but variable, and metal is mostly concentrated around the shores making a navy actually useful. Go to the Maps page to download it!
Battleroom GUI Hack
Gnome - May 4th, 2004
I hacked around in TA's GUI and created this tonight. This is a simple hack that gives multiplayer battlerooms a larger chat buffer so you can see more of what has been said. I had to move the "View Map" button but everything works, both as a host and client. I also included Dark Rain's view map GUI hack in this. His hack increases the size of the minimap when you click "View map" anywhere for a more detailed view.

Small update to the map released earlier
Gnome - April 18, 2004
The user everyone notified me of a broken underwater metal patch on the map released a couple days ago. That has been fixed, so now anyone who downloaded it will have to download the HUGE 3 meg file again :P
An update?! New content?! WTF!
Gnome - April 16, 2004
Woah, with actions that surprised the entire world, I made a new map! Designed and named by Beowulf, this new map is called Grand Tetons, a north/south team-based map with multiplayer play in mind. The map has enough metal for a basic army in the start areas, but to win you must take the center. It plays best with 4 players, but it should work well (if a bit crowded) with up to 8. The map can be found on the TA Maps page.

Updated web page
Gnome - April 16, 2004
As you can see, I updated the PHP scripts and the look of the site. I think it looks much better now, plus it's much easier to update :D Have fun, use our bandwidth!
Just a small thing
Gnome - January 26, 2004
TAUniverse now has a top 100 site list thing, so I signed WP up naturally. As I type this, WP is #1, the button image is broke, and their color scheme sucks, but I'm sure that will be fixed shortly :P
Holy crap
Gnome - December 23, 2003
In a surprise move, triaxx2 has finished some of bobthedino's units and released them without even me noticing :o There are 4 new Arm units available on the TA unit pages. Merry Christmas and whatnot, I guess. Maybe there will be more to come...
