I used to have this game, it was pretty fun. This mod sounds interesting and has been apprently been under development for quite some time.
What I find amusing is that he posted on 1/04/08 that the addon would be released on 1/01/08 *See credits page, states 08. So......he makes a news post on the 4th about releasing a mod on the 1st?:rotfl:
As for the $100 donations to get the game in a professional presentation, well geez...who would really pay the International rates for that? Especially when he points out that you can d/l and print the box art and eventually the mod for free. How much could a dvd box cost anyway, $1.00 at most?
It's quite a peculiar situation any mod would take months or even years in this case apprently if one man is doing virtually all the work. Based on the credits, it would appear that alot of the work was done by others and he just edited them and put it all into one package, that's not to discredit him though, putting X amount of mods together and make it actually work is surely difficult, especially when your mod team is just one man apprently. In conclusion.....who knows really, based on the credits he runs everything from the website to the beta testing, is it a fraud, is it real and he's just wants to release a product worthy of his time and effort as I'm sure all modders can understand, who knows.:hmm:
Lastly......for a mod that missed it's target date of released, I'm surprised no one is spaming the news post with "where is the mod" "wtf....where is it" "I spent all day waiting for this and nothing happend where the !&^$ is it?" Maybe the website has it's own secret police that makes sure no bad posts see the light of day.
