"Behind The Code": D. Ray (Part 1/3)
The first part of the second "Behind The Code" interview set, where ex-Activisioners talk with Apolyton CS` (ACS) Locutus about the Call To Power series and in particular the second title in light of its pending source code release, is now online.

Dave "Pyaray" Ray was on the Call To Power II development team as a programmer alongside Richard Myers and Steve Mariotti. In looking back, he discusses his half-year on the Call To Power II development. He relays the satisfaction he received working on the game and both the other people and the company behind it. He states that with the release of the CTPII source code, fans who choose to delve into it will gain some first-hand experience as to what is involved in such a project.

The second part of the one-on-one chat with Ray will be posted on August 28th. Comments on the first instalment are welcomed in this thread.

Maybe to replace Steve Mariotti. IIRC, he left that summer.

They needed more programming talent than they had.
