We're in a fast development cycle over here at AS:SP. Beta 0.2 is compiling as I type this.
0.2 is a functionality update really. I've changed the main menu buttons, loading screen and background video so when you're playing AS:SP you know you're playing it and not regular Alien Swarm.
plaYer2K has worked his magic and taken my altered code and bundled it in with his better HUD mod.
Loading Screen
Main Menu
If you want to mod Alien Swarm you can't do better than start with the Hud mod. It's added so many more configurable elements therefore avoiding the need for coding.
I'll wait for him to announce what he's added but it really opens up the opportunities for changing the look and feel of the game menus etc..
We seem to have developed a rather odd partnership. I change code in my mod.. tell him what I've changed.. he then decides which elements he'd like to mod further and make it changable through a config file which then gets passed on to you guys through the Better Hud Mod. Everybody wins! :)
Anyway... hoping Beta 0.2 will be out later today... stay tuned!
The problem with Alien Swarm is that its multiplayer by default. As the community gets bored with the official campaign they move on and pretty soon theres no one to play with anymore. Take away the multiplayer and you have a great top down shooter. I give you Alien Swarm: Single Player... enjoy!
