Is that "The Movies" game responsible? Oh well, damn Peter Molyneux and his occasionally good games.

:lol:

I don't think that's the only reason though. I've heard Beery talk about stopping involvement with SHIII months ago (as early as July, I think), so it's certainly not a sudden decision.

But I won't speak for him :P I don't think he or anyone else needs an excuse.

I'm really sorry to that Beery is moving on...RUb has been the foundation of SH3 for me since it came out. However I'm glad to hear others will continue to build on it. Because of the mods SH3 is without question the best PC game I've ever played...and I've been playing them for 15+ years. I don't have any aptitude for making mods but I sure appreciate the generosity of the people who do.

I'm also sorry that Beery is moving on. I hope that after a suitable interval he returns. He and the RUB team have made the $40 I spent on this game the best money I have ever spent, and I thank them all. Irish1958

What!? Another prophet? I am torn between two leaders feeling like a fool...

Bah, ignore them. gouldjg has promised us sea monsters and such :D

I'm sorry to hear about Beery's decision. This is the end of an era. But I understand it. Personally, I'd like so see someone of the old gang taking over RuB. I'd like to nominate CCIP, and even though he might have a different opinion on this, I think that he's perfectly suited for the task! :D

I wonder about the idea of making "RUb patches" rather than revising the whole thing. I have the feeling that unless we suddenly get another significant patch from Ubisoft and everything has to be re-configured, there's probably enough good reasons to keep RUb 1.5 as the standard, and just issue small patches for it with new features or fixes as they come up.

I'm sure that would end up being more manageable, even if it adds another (very simple) step in the installation process. :hmm:

...and following both of them is breaking all the rules.

Did you think at least one of us wouldn't catch the reference?

I had hoped that no-one would catch on, but I couldn't help myself :rotfl:

CCIP said:
The difficulty with this approach will be if one file is modified by different modders in different ways. No method of overlays will enable both to be operative at the same time. It is necessary for a mod-master to take the key features of both mods and manually add them to the existing common file.

This may also involve a (very necessary) degree of selection by the mod-master if, for some reason, both files cannot be combined into one master file. But that's part of the job specification.

This thread appears to have stagnated for a while. Surely there must be new suggestions for the way ahead? We cannot let RUb just disappear through apathy! Any more proposals for a new name for RUb? Anyone else want to suggest themselves or others as the new mod-master? Is CCIP still willing to take over the job?

Stiebler.
