    I've been developing shit programs for iPhone for a while now and fancy a change of direction.

    Back in November a friend and I started working on a FPS engine using Unity in order to make a clone of Counter-Strike for the device.

    The idea has lain dormant since then but we want to get it off the ground. Rather than being typical Apple developers and surrounding everything in a web of elitism, profits and mystery we've decided to take the community approach.

    If you're interested in helping or just want to have a look, then I've set up a forum.

    There's not much on there at the moment, but as the numbers pick up I'll start throwing out more info and content.

    Sounds interesting even though i don't have an iphone at the moment.

    Also I probably can't help much if at all but will head over to the forums regularly to see how this progresses just because its CS (which i love) and on the iphone.

    Thanks, like I said there's not much there at the moment, I'm working on getting the engine finished right now but I can't upload pictures or videos as where I'm staying has shockingly slow internet.

    Better make sure you disable any wallcheat's, we all know how seriously some people take CS!

    Come on guys. You never used aim bots or wall hacks before? That was the way to roll back in the early 2000's.

    Umm, the reactions of your opponents.

    You might try asking around on the GotFrag CS forums or HLTV.org forums.

    Might just do that. Current forum members 0. Current helpers 0.

    Done quite a lot of work on the engine recently. Got a good dual stick control set up working but can't decide what to do about a fire button.

    There just isn't enough screen real-estate, was thinking of maybe using the microphone as the fire button...tap to fire??

    It's sad that you refuse to believe there are people that would not cheat at games. I have never used cheats in CS. Ever.

    As I said, neither I have. There is a great satisfaction to be found in CS when you finally get good at it. It can take a lot of practice but it's worth it.

    <-- Also never (Ever. Ever.) cheated. Don't even technically know what it looks like on the user end to wallhack. Though, now I'm curious... hmm.

    Oh you mean the legitimate reactions to a person being a douchebag. It's online cheaters like you seem to support that keep me from playing competitively online or really even for fun anymore. Typically I only play LAN or single player games anymore on my PC.

    Also in response to your earlier question you asked in general, I haven't ever cheated online. I may have messed around with console codes for fun in single player games or against bots, but I would feel like I was ruining the fun when playing online. If you ever want to play an online game of CS:S and feel like cheating feel free. I have no problems trying to get you banned. I got two people VAC banned from CS:S back in the last clan I played in.

    I will be showing off a basic engine test in about a week. I don't have anyway of connecting my Mac to the net at the moment which is severely hampering my progress.
