S3D final release - v0.9.9

FINAL NOTES

S3D is nearing version 1.0, and as such I am wrapping this project up. For over 2 years I have put my heart and soul into this application for everyone to use free or charge. In that time, I uncovered many more secrets of Silent Hunter, allowing for awesome new mods and idea's to come to reality, and even with this release new mods will be possible (animations, damage model, etc.). I released over 20 versions of S3D, and have well over 18.000 downloads in total since I started measuring (since version 0.5.4, in january 2008!). The last beta was downloaded close to 5000 times by itself! Quite a feat for a game in a niche market, and I'm interested to see how this release will do. I enjoyed all the feedback and excitement by the users (you!). All of you made this a great asset for the game, I just built it...

But it has to end somewhere, and that moment is now. There are still a couple of things left on my wish list but I don’t any more time to spend on this project, it’s time to move on for me. Thanks to everybody that supported me, and thanks for the open community spirit that I have strived for. I like to believe I have made my mark on the community, and hope everyone appreciates my efforts to bring all modders together. I wish everyone the best.

Have fun using S3D!!

Hi skwasjer,

many, many thanks for your wonderfull tool - it is realy a kind of "revolutionary" tool!.

I can remember thoses times i was forced to use a hexeditor - sure you've learned much when using a hexeditor, but your tool saves one of our rare goods: time!

Once again - thanks skwasjer

Thx a lot mate, your work made it possible for us to get dreams come true!

You've poured out your heart and soul to make a tool anyone can learn to use. Sorry you're stopping work, but burnout is the worst thing that can happen to a creative soul.

Maybe someday you'll be bitten by the bug again. Maybe not. Pursue your dreams and work on what your heart tells you to. Until then, happy sailing!

Edit:

The zone editor is SOO. . cool.

And after owning my mouse for 6 years, i've just figured out the wheel doubles up as a 3rd button when i press it, so i can now rotate the model

I need to go on a computer course
