avp and avp2 are not even close to being the same engine.
avp2 uses the lithtech 2.0 engine and avp1 uses one of EA's engines. which made it a pain to make a map for. Not that Monolith's DEdit was ever user friendly like the mass of Quake editors...
Anyways, Shogo would be closer to avp2 then avp is...
AVP is freakin 3cds. One cd for each race. Thats kinda alot of work.
Though I loved that game you may be better off porting Blood2 and Shogo. it's the same engine and they are cross compatible. Port one game get second one for free.....
two cents....
