4T4C Project in 10 questions1. What is 4T4C ?It's the codename of the T4C builds that we are going to release to official under-licence servers, this version is just totally different from what T4C have known until now.2. Who works on it ?Black Lemming : Manager, significant experience in T4C development and server operating.Mestoph : Server coding, highly skilled in code debugging, network and security programming. Chaotikmind : Client coding, highly skilled in reverse engineering / modern technologies. 3. Is that legal ?Yes, 4T4C is the development team of the official licenced Dialsoft server Abomination T4C. We simply chose to share our efforts to all the T4C community by not keeping the improvements only for Abomination.4. What will change with 4T4C ?Based on the facts that this game was no longer capable of evolving in an acceptable and modern-systems-friendly way, we decided to completely re-write the source code of the major parts of the game on both client and server sides. This will bring a very significant improvment of the performances, stability and reliability.5. Some examples of the improvements ?The memory usage on client have been divided by 3, windows will no longer tilt trying to change the resolution of your screen to run the game. The 3D graphics accelerator are now supported with the new Direct3D graphic engine. (The game is still 2D from a visual point of view, no visual change)6. When will I be able to play it ?The sooner the better, but we are going to take our time to do it the best we can, we are not going to release any bugged or untested version, it means you'll have to be patient ! But stated to what we have yet, I would assume that it's coming soon :p7. Can I help you ?Nope we are a full team, not accepting anyone more, if you want to help T4C, just play :) and bring some friends !8. Will the source code of your works be available ?Nope for thousands of reasons. But it will return, legally, to Dialsoft when we are done working on it and finished with code maintenance and improvements. (Just like any licenced server+sources at the end of its licence in case of no renewal for example, the server must return to Dialsoft any modifications done to the source code). The reason is we simply want to keep the control over the quality and exclusivity to official servers of this version.9. Why is that website so ugly ? and why no French version ?Well, first of all, it's a matter of taste :-) if you do not like it, please submit your photoshop templates to my mailbox. For the french translation. We do not have time.10. What exactly should we expect from this version ?Please go to the dev page, and read directly our release notes and to-do lists, have fun reading.
