GENERAL CONNELL : NAMPO MISSION BRIEF CONCEPT
Well this will be our final update before the Christmas holidays. Recently our lead vocal talent DoomMunky recorded the mission briefing for the Nampo naval base map and we would like to present this for you, complete with some syncing. Because of the unfortunate bug in 1.2 I had to render out the lypsync using a different method, however when I downgrade to do the rest of the scipt syncing I will fix all the little mistakes that are currently apparent.
Anyway here is an ingame concept video of the briefing. Animations will be customized when we get closer and also possibly a brand new character model for General Connell.
Special thanks again to DoomMunky, better known as Mick Mize for his work. We hope to be bringing you alot more of his vocal talents in the near future. If you are interested in finding out more about Mick, then you may visit his website located here
Happy Christmas and thank you all for your support this year.

BARRETT M468 - TEXTURE UPDATE
Just though I would give you guys a quick update on what we are currently working on. Aside from a new map which includes a large collection of custom assets we are also pushing forward with the weaponry. Mong0ose has been hard at work modelling a huge variety of guns for the mod, a selection of which will be featured in the next update.
Anyway, today's update is an update on the Barrett M468 model which was posted before. Texture work is nearing completion and we now have the addition of the Eotech 557 model + textures.
You may notice the weapon is currently sporting the FY-71's clip, this is just for testing until the "real" clips texture is completed.

Updating today with another beautiful model from team member Mong0ose, this time featuring the AH-1W helo. This will be utilized in CryRecon as a support vehicle, bringing firepower to the battlefield as and when you need it. This may be developed into the AH-1Z varient at some point.

CRYSIS/CRYRECON KNIFE CONCEPT
Well thought I would take a break from the mountain of UVW work im currently hacking away at lol to try and concept a Knife for both Crysis and CryRecon. The model is currently untextured and the animations criminally simple, but I just wanted to get a model ingame to concept the actual mechanics of a knife for the engine. It is absolutely alpha but the concept itself works fine. Seeing as it seems to be such a heavily requested asset over Crymod I will also be releasing a community version for the guys over there. Animations are just placeholders for now so please ignore them in the video below.

WARHEAD ENGINE
After some initial discussion amongst the team we are currently agreed that CryRecon will most likely become exclusive to the new version of CE2 which is now shipping with the fantastic sequel to Crysis, "Warhead". The new version of the engine is highly optimized, producing major increases in FPS and also introduces many advances including those related to AI. Unfortunately at the moment the SDK and toolset for the Warhead version of CE2 is yet to be released, but once it is CryRecon will be moving to this new version of the engine.
We are aware that the majority of Crysis owners will also make the move to purchase Warhead now it is released and therefore the current fanbase for CryRecon will still retain the means to play the Mod when it is released.
As a short side note to this info, we are now currently only 3 or 4 weapons away from our demo quota, the demo map is already in production. We are now hoping for a playable demo of CryRecon before 2008 is finished.
