Mechwarrior 2 Remake Project

I'm happy to share this new release of the Mechwarrior 2 Remake project which features the first mission in the Jade Falcon campaign titled 'Silent Thunder'. This release is meant to gauge interest and garner support for this Remake project, as well as show what the tools are capable of and what I am at the moment able to make. I strongly ask those who are interested in this remake project to share this showcase as widely as possible and please consider supporting my Patreon to help motivate this ambitious undertaking of remaking the Jade Falcon and Wolf and Ghost Bear's Legacy campaigns. My Patreon can be found here: https://www.patreon.com/CelestialMechWorks


In addition to the campaigns, the extra features that I envision for this remake if enough people show their support and demand for this project:

Modern vs Classic 'mech designs: The option to choose between modern mech designs by PGI and classic mech designs from my classic mech collection
Original soundtrack vs Timothy Seals soundtrack: The option to choose between Jeehun Hwang and Gregory Alper's classic soundtrack and Timothy Seals' remastered mixes (when available).
Original Betty vs MW5: Clans Betty: The option to choose between 1995's MW2 Betty as the computer voice or 2024's MW5: Clans Betty computer voice.


Background

I've previously released over 75 mods for Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries, including the classic mech collection, the female protagonist mod, the better lighting in hangar mod, and the MW2 Betty Ultimate mod. I also released a Mechwarrior 2 remake of the first mission in the Wolf campaign 'Pyre Light' as a proof of concept for Mercenaries, but when I learned that we would be getting Mechwarrior 5: Clans in UE5 with all the Clan mechs, the Broadsword ship, and the new and improved mission design tools, I switched my plans to wait for the MW5 Clans UE5 mod tools. Now that they are here, I now plan to embark on this big project where I remake Mechwarrior 2's Jade Falcon and Wolf campaigns, and afterwards, Ghost Bear's Legacy. As a first appetizer, I've remade Silent Thunder in the time that I had available this summer.

However, considering the work and time needed to fulfill this, I strongly need the support from the Mechwarrior and Battletech community. Please share this project as widely as you can and in the communities you are in and with the youtubers / streamers you know, so that enough people at the very least become aware of it and show interest in it. Most importantly, it would mean a great deal if there are people who subscribe to my Patreon as a token of support for this project, as that helps justify the long evenings I spend on this remake.
