I glanced out the LUA version with the N-Client but even that one is not finished right now. So I decided to pick up work 1.0.3 nodes (it's the fastest way for now in my opinion to get a valid working version) and fiddled around with that fonts and I had finally success. Means all fonts are already replaced and they fit mostly very well. Some parts needs polishing (linebreak at some textblocks) - but I think I can release a new version soon.
In meanwhile I've setup already a 7/24 nodes dedi server (needed for testing anyway) and fixed some linebreaks . Currently I'm asking some artists regarding new gfx stuff - I remember a few nice teeish skins in DDRace-Client - and since Nodes got it's own client a new release is a chance I could add some as standard as well. Note: New release would also contain 0.6-TW tilesets of desert, jungle and winter (even old ones remains parallel so no need to rework old maps). I've even contacted Kottizen regarding his smart 32master server, the only one that supports > 16 clients so far, and Kottizen would turn it on again today night. Please keep in mind >16 clients with Nodes 1.0.1 would cause troubles to normal TW. I would not add lot's of new function in code of Nodes in this release (to increase speed of release-date and put in some life into nodes scene again) but I've planned some new stuff for next release already (e.g. airstrike as reinforment). If you have some ideas suggestions or contradictions please tell me here.
