You are appreciated guys. You sacrifice a lot and sometimes get very little back.....sometimes get ingratitude instead of thanks.

But please, 'keep up the good work'....not just on the modding front but also in the fact that you are willing to devote so much energy and give for free to people that don't even know your real name. A bit like Batman but without the wierdo sidekick Robbin and whatever they've got goin' on.... but I digress. Sorry, medication about to kick in.........:88).

PS:
what's a readme again?:yawn:

I spent from 1995 to 2004 as a hardcore modders of several games. Thanks God, I grew tired enough to leave that hobby. I did not even keep a copy of my past works.

I hear you there loud and clear. It's not uncommon for me to have hashed something out, for a week or two, only to toss it all away because of bugs or limitations. Some things i never did figure out how it worked.

I also can't wait to uninstall one game in particular, and i won't be keeping any files related to it. It will no longer exist on my system, in any form. Im kicking that bastard child to the curb. :rotfl2:

You need to, like when my windowsXP crashes every several days and I have to figure out the damn problem for hours.

Reminds me of why I stopped web development. Even if I only did a few sites, the last one was a never ending request from the owner to the point where he was trying to rebuild it all over again.

No more for me.

I feel your pain.
