I’ve been playing around with this for a while, but news reached me on (er) Friday that it’s actually gone public, so thought a little post would be in order. It’s CrosuS, a Game Management-System thingie from Isotx, who you may know from stuff the C&C: Generals total conversion Middle East Crisisand the forthcoming Middle East Crisis 2 and the forthcoming commercial Iron Grip: Warlord. And – er – more.
It’s actually a neat little program - clearly, it’s got a retail element to it where you can buy games, has all the usual community and apparently integrates with STEAM and XFire, but where it comes into its own is its extensive mod support. As Isotx said in the press release: “We realized that hunting for new mods, installing them and getting them to work was eating into the time we could spend actually playing – and decided there HAD to be a better way”. I suspect anyone who has interest in the mod content – including mod-developers themselves – will find something of interest here. And I’ll browse through some of the stuff it lets you do beneath the cut…
