Alot probably. The scripting, modelling, skinning, map, government system. The 2D art can be reused, including the ancillaries, as well as the campaign models (I think), and the descriptions.
Modelling and skinning will have to change, because now things work differently IIRC and there is the whole needing multiples of each type of shield, skin, etc, etc so that you don't get the clones.Quote:

It's going to be a long (a very huge number) years. :juggle2:
We'll be able to adapt the traits and ancillaries as well, if CA fixes the AntiTrait mechanism in the next patch, that is.
has any of the group started moving it over to MTW2?
Our focus is primarily on 1.0, so not a lot of work has been done.
The good news is that many of us consider 0.8.1 like a 1+ release, so we aren't stacking up the requirements for the next release, which should be 1.0.
Yupiii!!!!!!!!!!!Quote:

IMHO the only obstacle as far as skinning and moddeling goes will be the creation of different body parts and textures to avoid the clones....
Thus I have a secret hope that EB2 open beta will be released by the time that M2s xpack is released....
