I still think we can wrap up the mod, content wise, in December or January. Doesn't seem overly optimistic to me. The long term issues are things like AI and dialogue, and since Xyx has overcome his greatest challenge, and I am getting near the end of my dialogues, I don't see why the remaining issues (like atmosphere pieces) can't be put in place within a relatively short time.

The key word being "relatively", I guess :P

It's because coordinated work is the weak point of the team.
When each works on his part things do proceede (even though not terribly fast); when something needs to be handled by more of us, time gets (literally) measured in months (or years), while it waits endlessly to be addressed (or to be forgotten :P).

Since I don't really see the mod released any time soon, maybe we should think about new screenshots or "something", at least ;)
Cuv or you will know better anyways :)

Ever forward, my darling wind...

The last thing we want to do is distract Cuv.

Getting the scripts for 20 mages to work. The IE messes up rather quickly in longer scripts. For example, spells are skipped and items cannot be used under certain mysterious circumstances. I have not identified those circumstances, but I have managed to finally produce something that avoids them.

I believe part of the problem is that, unlike most teams (and I'm thinking of myself, Cuv and Xyx when writing this), we're all holding down full time jobs, are located in entirely different time zones, and have all moved at least once during the course of this mod.

he, you can count me in as well, after all I'm at work an average of 10/11 hours a day + often a few hours on saturday and, sparely, even on sunday.
That's why I code in twenty minutes long coding sessions, usually. :mellow: (when I code).

Ever forward, my darling wind...

Not what we wanted to hear Littiz

"maybe we should think about new screenshots or "something", at least"

Yes, something to placate the masses, we are getting unruly with all the waiting.

Surely, don't let the treacherous words of evil lord Littiz deceive you. :devil:
Go and play with your copy of RtW - made available to the public about 4 years ago, as for Quitch's early announcements. :whistling:
Oh, and learn the wonders of the term "steady". :shifty:

This year yes, this month... I doubt it. I'm changing jobs, moving house and am dealing with the police after a break in. It's a pretty busy time, but I'll write when I can.
