Which one? That GWX would be back, or that i wouldn't be modding? I've definatly slipped on the later. The former remains to be seen.

I know one thing though, i'm tired, a bit hung over, pissed at ubi, and pretty much done now.

A long and arduous path? Nooo,

[kapitan_zur_see]

although you plan on leaving SH5, your contributions are much appreciated Ducimus
We will miss your expertise

I'll be playing, just not modding.

Dude. . . this is a sad day. Each dedicated modder that walks away from this equates to hundreds or thousands of man hours spent modding this game over the next two to three years (how long I figure it will take to get it up to snuff and worth playing really).

Ducimus, have you considered . . . well you know. It shall remain unspoken.

Either way. You will be missed. I just hope it won't be forever that you will be gone.

The last time he said he was leaving a mod scene (SH4) we got Trigger Maru , so I guess this time we can expect something really great for Sh5

No, seriously, I modded SH2 to death many years ago and got really, really fed up with it. I thought I would leave it forever, specially when Sh3/4 came out and I faced the new steeeeeep learning curve again. And what happened? Look at the Sh3/4 mods forum, there I am modding the interface for Sh3 and the skins and models for SH4

I no longer did major mods, but I never left completely. I guess (And hope) Ducimus will do the same, and we will still get here and there some bits of his talent for our enjoyment. And, since I'm not getting SH5 until the DRM is patched out by UBI, I guess I'll arrive at the same time as Duci gets back

Every day I start SH5 to give it another try. After half an hour I stop it when I get irritated by the bugs. I do understand Ducimus standpoint. You spent a lot of time modding but if the fundament is rotten it's a waiste of time. Today I'm desperately tuning the sim.cfg file hoping that my deck watch will react on the approaching destroyers. Realy nothing happens. Even when the destroyers are 20 Meters away from the sub. I cannot understand that Ubi created this mess while they should have knowledge and experience from SH3 and SH4. They invested in the ability to run around in a sub instead of investing in the real beef: the simulation.

I dream of having the SH3 source code. After some bugfixing and a introducing a Wolfpacksystem and surface attack ability you would already have a pearl forever - and about everybody in this forum knows that. Beatiful graphics are great. But the choice between graphics and gamebalance should be an easy one.
