Tribes is officially turning 20 on November 30th so it's time to dust off your jet packs and disc launchers and come celebrate the greatest game ever made. Myself and a few others are trying to organize a grassroots Tribes 20th Anniversary Reunion Weekend.
The details are not by any means set in stone but the current information (and registration links) for the 20th Anniversary Weekend can be found at http://www.playt1.com/20-years-of-tribes/. We are aiming for the weekend of November 30th - December 2nd. The current plan is to stand up some additional Base servers and play Tribes for a weekend as well as to organize an LT tournament. Hopefully we can organize some other events: Base pickups, Arena/Duel, Team Rabbit, etc. The current Tribes community, even without you old bastards, can support an LT tournament which is why that is our first organized event.
What's that you say? Current Tribes community? Amazingly enough there is still a small but dedicated Tribes 1 community. We are sadly reduced to only playing LT but it's still better than Fortnite or whatever garbage games are getting released today . There are active LT pubs every night and we coordinate pickup games through the Tribes Talk discord server Tribes Talk Discord. On http://www.playt1.com there are links to three 100% ready to go Tribes configs, links to the community, and a "guide" on how to play LT. The three configs are:
There is also a channel on the Tribes Talk discord server, Tribes Talk Discord, that we are using for planning and coordinating the 20th Anniversary Weekend. Anyone who wants to get involved or has ideas for cool shit we can do to celebrate the 20th anniversary are welcome.

- Stork's ProConfig3 is meant to make it as easy as possible to see enemies/be aware.
- Fire's build is meant for T:A players who wanted to try Tribes 1. It is meant to look as similar to T:A (I never played T:A so can't comment) and I believe the default key binds are the T:A defaults. This is probably the "fanciest" of the builds but it is based on scriptGL which can be finicky/problematic.
- Groove's T1 Basic Config is as close to stock Tribes as you'll get in 2018.
