General information
===What is TA Spring?===
TA Spring is a project to create the best RTS ever (no joke). There are three principle goals which we hope to achieve.
. . . . . .A) Reach a stage where TA Spring can flawlessly execute most of Total Annihilation's original gameplay, with its original units in their original format.
. . . . . .B) Add new features as we see fit, fix bugs, and release new versions when we feel it is appropriate to do so.
. . . . . .C) Support the mod community as we see fit.
When will TA Spring be ready?
A concrete timetable for TA Spring's progress does not exist, and shall never exist. However we aim to get an early test release out quite soon (within a month or so) which will contain the essentials needed to play, but not much more.
===Will TA Spring be free?===
That's the current plan.
I want to help, what can I do?
Until we have finished our own map and unit formats, we are not looking for anything in particular.
I want to donate.
People have made clear their desire to donate to the project, and so far, we have been fairly reluctant about accepting donations. Our main concern? While we certainly hope to have something playable released in the near future, there is no guarantee that it will ever happen. Unforseen events arise, and it would be most unfortunate if everyone who donated felt swindled because the project did not turn out as they had hoped, or was not released at all.
We do not plan to be more or less productive solely based upon the quantity and frequency of donations received. The TA Spring project is here only because we view this as an enjoyable hobby.
I read all that and I still want to donate.
Very well then! You may feel free to use the Paypal account taspring@clan-sy.com that we have registered. It will be much appreciated. :)
