It'd take an eternity to scroll through all news if I'd keep them on the main page, so I put all old ones here, in the archives.


More W:A-CS 01/08/12

Yo!

After receiving some feedback for the WACS mod on the message board I have here, I've made a few changes to the project and released a new version: Beta 2.1. There are no revolutionizing changes, but you don't have to place your worms manually anymore which speeds up the game alot, I've also changed a few weapons a bit. The zip file is hosted at another account of mine, click here or go to the downloads section to begin the download.

WWP a party? 01/06/30

Hi there!

Since it's been over five months I figured maybe I should do a news update. So here it is. Much has happened in the worming world, Worms World Party has been released, a mission editor for that one and the Concrete Donkey knows what else. I've had atleast one request on making a page for WWP since it is a Worms game and I've done that for all the other Worms games. I might do this, but I'm afraid it will be pretty much like the W:A section since there isn't much new stuff in the game. This will also reflect on the rating I will apply, not many worms there! :) Oh well the missions are nice, but then again that's pretty much all that is nice about that game... Oh well nothing more for this time, maybe I'll do an update to the site or maybe I wont, if not I guess I'll see you all in another five months :)

New mirror 01/01/16

Yo!

There has been some problems with the last CS mod beta. I dunno why, but for some reason the file doesn't want to download from the crappy Geocities account I have some other files at, files that work! :P Anyways I've uploaded the file to another place, tried it and it really should work now. Go to the downloads section to get it.

W:A CS Beta 2.0 released! 01/01/07

Hi there!

The new Worms: Armageddon Counter-Strike beta is finally completed, boasting new weapons and one brand new map. I must say I'm very pleased with the result. So if you liked the first one, don't hesitate to check it out! Because of the addition of a soundbank, the install zip is rather big, but I hope it wont be much of a problem. I've uploaded the file to my Geocities account so click here to begin the download, or proceed to the downloads section and get it from there. I know there's been some problems with my geocities account, but right-click and choose save target as and it should work.

I'm not 100 percent sure but this might be the last W:A CS beta made by me. I've heard from some people who like the idea, but personally I think there's not much more to add. The levels can never get as variable as the CS ones, and as long as I don't know a way to edit the source code (and as long as I know as little programming as I do :)), there aren't many other things to extend further. Online gaming would be great with this mod I think, but according to the creators of the Fiddler themselves, it's just not possible. Oh well, if you like the thing or have any ideas, don't fear to tell me. Until next time, seeya!

Worms 1 demo online again 00/12/15:

Wassap!

I just wanted to inform you that the Worms 1 demo is online again, hosted at my Geocities account. You can reach it from the downloads section, or just click here to begin the download.

In other news, the next W:A Counterstrike beta is nearing completion. I will upload the zip as soon as I'm ready with it, and that should be very soon. I've made many minor tweaks and such to it, but the most important implementations is probably the addition of one new level, namely Dust, and a few guns. Also I've included a soundbank with real CS sounds. Oh well, as said expect it to appear here in the near future. Nothing more for today, Seeya!

New GBC codes 00/12/01:

Hello!

A nice wormer have sent me some new Gameboy Color W:A codes, so I thought why not put them up on my site? They're all on the W:A GBC section for you who are interested. Also I've added two more downloads to the appropriate section. They have been available before here on the site but on other pages.
A number of people have also tipped me on suitable places to move this site too. I really appreciate it, thanks goes out you who have helped me! I'm going to check out some and hopefully decide for one later. That's all for now, cya!

Space level critical 00/08/26:

Hiya!

You'll have to excuse me, but when writing this I'm feeling ungh...ow... a bit... crammed in =). I have about 70 Kbytes of space left on this is server, which is very little. God knows if I'll even be able to upload this newspost... I will need more space if I am going to add more stuff to this site, maybe I'll even have to move it to another place. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do about this right now, expect more on this later.

On another note: Right now you can't run the Worms 1 demo if you've downloaded it. I simply don't have enough space for it so it's not fully uploaded. You'll have to bear with this for now, I will try to solve it in some way in the future. I guess that's all for now, Seeyas!

Update: Counterstrike for W:A is out! 00/08/05:

Yes it's true! Download WACS_vBeta1_0.zip now! The download is about 335K. You'll need The Fiddler to properly run the mod, complete instructions are included in the zip file.

Things to expect in the next Beta, 1.5:
--------------------------------------
  • The dust map completed with textures and instructions on how to play
  • New weapon: Double Berettas, and removable silencers on the USP.45 and Colt guns! Also all handguns will be changed to be fully semi-automatic
  • New playmode Bomb Defusion completed to go along with the new Dust map.

    In addition to all this I'm planning on a WACS website to appear soon. Please feel free to give me any comments on WACS, it's not completed yet as it is still an early beta version, but I'm quite happy with the result. For you who don't have a clue what anything of this is about, well CS is a modification for the popular game Half-Life. It concentrates on Counter-terrorism missions with realistic weapons and scenery. I've tried to capture a bit of that with this little Fiddle and the maps included with it. For more info you can go to the official CS website here. I think that's all for now, see you around!

    Update 00/06/16:
    Finally! The W:A weapon guide is now completed! After 2 years and alot of hard work. It's all there now so if there's a weapon you still want to know more about, I'd recommend you to head to the W:A weapon section. There has been people wondering about Worms World Party, if I will write something about it when it comes out, if I'll do a Weapon guide etc. Actually I'm not sure I will cause I'm running out of space on this server. I might do a new page and link it from here or something. We'll see. For now this site is pretty much finished. I'm quite satisfied as it is. It's been fun while it lasted. Maybe I'll see you again, until then

    May the Worm be with You!


    Update 00/03/15:
    Weapons scheme for Fiddler now available through the Projects section! Go there to actually play with the weapons you've only been reading about before!



    Weapons done too - 12 21 99

    Hello!

    It'll be Christmas in no-time, and I've got holidays and nothing to do. So I thought "Why not finish the W:A GBC pages?". And that's what I've done. The weapons guide is complete now, and some more codes are also available in the main page. Hope you like it. Now there is only *one* thing left to do. The W:A weapons. I know I can do them, and I'm sure I will. Sometime. But for now that's all,

    Merry Christmas!

    Mission accomplished - 12 06 99

    Hi!

    Guess what? I've written and uploaded the W:A GBC pages! Isn't that great? Ok, they're not completed yet, but I'm really working on it now, so they will become better and better as time passes :) If you've got W:A GBC and want some theme codes, then I've got a few on the main section of that game. Fast news post this time, I'll write more when these pages are fully done.

    Seeya!

    Servadac gets bombarded - 11 29 99

    Yo wormy fellas,

    Ok first of all, alot of people have been mailing me and asking about the W:A GBC section. I know you want it now, so please don't mail me anymore. I have W:A GBC now, and its section at this site IS coming, I'm working on it. I've recieved word that it's not out in the US until December 8th, so I'll try my best to get it done and upload it before then. Actually I might do one more section besides the regular Main and Weapons for it, this has to do with how you gain different terrains in the game. Maybe I'll tweak it into the Main page instead though, I'll decide later.

    On other news, I found a cool shareware game on one of my numerous PC mag cd's. It's called Liero, made in Finland, and it reminds very much about Worms, except that it's in realtime, and have only two worms. It's actually quite well-done, and has a host of different weapons. So if you like the action part of Worms it's definately worth checking out. You should be able to find the latest version here: www.mikrobitti.fi. I wish you good luck with navigating there though, I haven't tried it yet...

    If you wonder what I've been doing when not updating this site for such a long time, well, most of the time I've been listening to the new Beastie Boys album Sounds of Science alot. It rocks. Ok, enough about that (this is supposed to be a Worms site), I believe I said at some point that I was trying to win the Elite league aswell. I can tell you that as hard as it is to get a game in that channel, I probably won't try to win it anymore... Maybe win a game now and then to stay in the top 20 which is pretty ill anyhow. This has been one long news post, so let's end it here. Keep your fingers crossed for those W:A GBC pages to show up, I'm sure they will soon enough. Keep on worming guys,

    Cya'round!

    5 days and counting... - 11 07 99

    Greetings, fellow Wormer!

    I guess I'll have to apologise for not writing any news lately (It's almost been two months :/ ). Honestly there hasn't been much new things to write about, atleast not here on the site. But let's look forward instead: W:A GBC hits the shelves this Friday, and I'm gonna buy it as soon as I can, and finish the section about it here on the site. I'm sure it will be just great! What I'm not sure about is if I've added a few more W:A hints n' tips or not, check it out at your own risk. Oh well, I thinks that's about all for now, Happy Worming and

    Cya!

    Back on track! - 09 13 99

    Hello!

    Well, the BIP server where I have this site is finally up and running again. First I thought the whole server was supposed to be taken down, but it seems they were merely updating it, to judge by the message they put up. It all works fine now, and now I can also visit it from my computer at home! Something I haven't been able to do before...

    I haven't changed much for this update but , however, I've entered this site to the Worms Top25. So click on the image above to vote for it, now! Gotta get some votes so it hangs in there! That's about all,

    Cya!

    Nothing much... - 08 30 99

    Hi there!

    Not much has been updated here on the site, just felt for writing a news update as it was a while since last time. I think the site map is the only thing updated really. I don't remember but I think so, search around and you might find more updated things. I promise I'll write the text for some more w:a weapons for next time. Until then,

    Cya!

    Servadac goes to premier - 08 19 99

    Hello there!

    Ok some non-worm related news first. Star Wars: Episode 1 finally hit Sweden tonight and yours truly went and saw it, all dressed up like a Jedi Knight you see in the film. I had already seen the movie, but it was still a great feeling. The movie itself kicks ass too. Expect photos of the jedi me to be here in the near future :)

    Now for the wormy news. I've made a small W:A for Gameboy Color page containing some screenshots and links to the previews. It's not much, but I'll put some more work on it when the game is actually released, and ofcourse also a weapons guide. Go there if you're interested. I think that's all for now,

    May the Force be with You!

    -Servadac




    Space problems - 08 10 99

    Hiya!

    The text for a few more W:A weapons is now written and done. That makes it two pages of five complete, three to go! A new banner for this site can also be found in the links section, I think this will be the definitive one. However I might animate it or something in the future.

    And now for the space problems. No, I'm not lost in space or caught in a star war :) thing is I've only got 10 meg of space here on this *crappy* swedish server. Actually it's so crappy so the company is no longer. It's been bought by another company just like it. You don't have to worry though, I think a little clean up of the files I have here should fix it. Whatever happens, I'm not gonna move this site, don't worry I don't want to do that.

    Last but not least There's also a "News Archives" page containing old news. There's not much there now, but more and more will come as I do more news updates. Well, nothing more for this time,

    Happy Worming!

    I'm back! - 07 30 99

    Howdy there!
    I'm finally back from my trip, and have I missed much while I was gone! Snooper was released, new channels in Wormnet and who knows what. Well, as I am back I'll get to work on the W:A weapons page so I get it finished. But I don't think it will all be over after that, I have a piece of paper with lots of other things which will probably pop up here sooner or later! I can't tell ya really what it is, you'll have to see it by yourself when it gets here. Nothing more til next time,

    C ya!

    W:A Weapons finishing getting closer - 07 01 99

    Hi there!
    All the W:A Weapons pics and info are now in place, however the actual text is still to be written for most of the weapons. It's been like this for a few days now, but I just though I'd mention it. On the other hand, you might have noticed that I haven't been updating this site nor being on the net for a few days now. The explanation to that is that I've been away a few days, and I will be going away on a trip for about 3 weeks now, so don't expect an update anytime soon. Sorry about this, I promise I will work hard on the site when I get back, and maybe even put some scanned pictures of weapons and Worms up on the site. Well, solong for now, and keep on worming!

    Cya!

    -Servadac




    More W:A Weapons - 06 14 99

    Hiya!
    I've added a few more W:A Weapons to the guide, and I'm adding more constantly. It'll be a while until that section is finished though, there are over 50 weapons in that game... I've also added the Wormy start button utility to the downloads section, go there if you're interested. After the W:A weapon pages are finished, I actually don't know of anything more to do here... I'll try to think of something, or maybe you have a good idea? If not, I'm afraid this site is pretty much finished. Oh well, nothing more this time.

    C ya!

    1 Year!! - 06 06 99

    Hi there!
    Today, on the 6th of June, it is exactly one year since I put my counter up on this page. That is, Servadac's Wormpage celebrates its 1 year anniversary! Wahey! Oh well, on this site I haven't updated much, only the Flag League. More and more people use my flags, I like that! Outside the site (I don't like to brag, but I gotta :)) I finally reached the ultimate rank, Elite, on WormNet a few days ago. If you don't believe me, contact me and I'll hop onto W.net to show you. That's all for now,

    Cya'll later!

    Wormnet things + Start Button - 05 24 99

    Hi,
    I've taken down the poll, and as I thought not many voted. But there was a small majority for the 'Yes' side, so I'm going to put the info into the Download section. That is, when I get the time. I've also added a few things to the WormNet section, some info about the ranking system and stuff. Well, nothing more for today,

    Cya!

    -Servadac




    Poll - 05 20 99

    Hi there,
    I've thrown up a poll here to the right, to see if you guys want me to put information on this site on how to make your Windows start button a bit wormier. I know I don't get that many visitors, but please give me your thought and vote about it. A "Wormier" start-button is actually nothing more than having a little worm instead of the windows symbol there. Still I don't want to put the info up if noone wants it. Outside this site, Star Wars: Episode 1 went up on theaters in USA yesterday, but I'll have to wait until July when I'm going there until I get to see it :( . If the force is with me, I'm sure I'll make it though :) . Nothing more today,

    C ya!
