I'd like to announce the open beta release of the 2000 Cy-Award winning
Ultimate Paintball, located at
http://www.shoemakervillage.org/programs.html. The application had been in
a closed beta format for several months. Please note that at the current
time, the program (as it is a beta version) may contain bugs, and should be
tested only by experienced users.

More importantly, the help files for this program were written on June 13,
2000 and are badly in need of being updated. As I must concentrate on the
Gulakon RPG, the fixing of bugs in this and other programs, and the
reconstruction of AWTeen, I have little time to devote to this important
task. Therefore, I hope that someone who has a good background in English
as well as a little technical knowledge will contact me and volunteer to
write these help files. The task would only take a few hours, and would be
greatly appreciated by myself and others who have downloaded the program.

Some of the features in version 2.21 include:

-Support for up to 255 worlds simultaneously with synchronized statistics
-Grenades and frenzy powerups, with the option to set a certain number of
each type of powerup or disable either completely
-Teleport or eject users when shot, and set the teleport location to
wherever you choose, or eject users with a 2.2 browser while teleporting 3.1
users
-Add and remove bots dynamically, even in the same world
-Specify up to 15 bosses who can use special commands to control the bot
in-world
-Keep statistics of kills, deaths, and kill-to-death ratios, as well as
individual standings
-Enable team warfare, and keep statistics of teams, including kills, deaths,
and ratios, as well as team standings
-Create and join teams at will, and leave then when required
-Set specific times to start and end a match, and count down until a match
ends
-Enable a phone bot to talk between worlds in the network, or disable it
whenever needed
-Eject bots on the playing field and prevent cheating with built-in features
if necessary
-Eject cheaters or troublemakers from all worlds in one click
-Create a bad words list to keep chat clean
-Create and clean up skull objects in one or all worlds
-Specify the grenade, frenzy, and skull objects
-View all of the current players and their scores instantly on the console
or by whispering "score", "deaths", or "ratios" to the bots
-Save and load different bot, scoring, and team configurations quickly and
easily
-Never download the zip file again and upgrade instantly with the Shoemaker
Village Upgrade Utility

As an extra incentive, I will host a world or bot without charge for anyone
who is willing to donate their time toward creating these help files.
E-mail awteen at shoemakervillage.org.
