WOW! same here. WTF happened? I am using your mods Ducimus and having a great time with SH4. Speaking as a mod challenged person, I'd sure hate to see ya leave.
We may not always say it, but 99% of the perople here really appreciate you and the other modders work.

Dang!I sure hope you reconsider Ducimus.I like your Trigger Maru mod,and I'm sure I'm not by myself.I think all this SH IV stuff is making our group a lil edgy.We keep losing able bodied modders like you my friend,and it's going to become a large problem.

Hi Ducimus. It is sad really. I respect your decision but please, take some time to reconsider. Many SH4 users here loving your work. I am one of them.

Without your mods, i'd simply not play SH4 no more. Simple as that.


If you don't stay for "them", stay for us

I wish you'd reconsider Ducimus. IMHO your mod is the only thing that makes this game playable. Pay no attention to all the blather that's going on around us and lets just focus on the game.

Ducimus,

I hope you change your mind. I wouldn't even have SH4 on my computer if it wasn't for your TM mod.

I'd hate to see you drop it Ducimus. You've really improved the game.

Thanks for what you've done.

i guess putting in so much time and energy in one thing with not much to take back may easily make someone quite touchy which i can tottally understand..

it also sounds kind of selfish to me to ask you to stay..
still, like all the other folks here i appreciated all you've done (not only for modding also for the patiente on explaining how i'm going to use your mode ) I remember myself reading my very first post here; it was yours and about how the AI sensors worked and it had couple of fancy drawings with it.. and BAM!! from then on i've sticked with FTT and never could leave it.. you made sh4 something enjoyable to more people you can guess..

..anyway i'd say give a break if you want.. and you can see what will happen after 1.3 comes (if it will ever come)..

..and maybe after 1.3 we wont be needing any modding..
just being over optimistic i guess :rotfl:

does anyone know the real reason why he's left? what "politics" and "bull****" is he refering to? if its cos of the 1.3 patch situation thats understandable, i havent even bought the game yet vecause of it so i can imagine what a royal pain in the arse moding it must be.

but i get the vibe from his post that there's another reason as he doesnt even mention the patch

He's leaving cos there are a few "camps" in this community and the exchange of words between them hasn't always been, well, very mature. I have to agree that i've noticed a downward spiral of late in the tone some people are using in their posts. What is really disapointing is that some of those people have been members of this community for quite a while and should really know better.

Unfortunately, i don't see a solution to this as the camp mentality now seems to have affected some moderators too.

Oh well, live 'n learn I suppose.

I am sorry to say this as most of you here are a great bunch.

I will be checking my PM's till mid June after that I will not be returning.

I know for a fact that some of the very best, nicest, most knowledgeable and experienced veteran SH3 modders that exist on the internet today are avoiding this SH4 modding forum like the plague because some of the attitudes and crap they have seen here, and I can't really blame them. It's just a few vocal troublemakers here spewing their BS who are ruining it for everyobdy else in the long run.

It's a sad, sad dayThat's three modders, doing an outstanding job, who get fed up with people on this board.It can't be more than a few, but their impact seems to be important. Where will these good modders be going?? I wonder if we'll ever know. I'll sure miss the patience, humor and good mods of Ducimus. I hereby wish you all the best.It's a sad, sad day

Agreed. All mods aside, I always thought Duci was one of the funniest members of SS. I always enjoy reading his posts.

I'm relatively new to subsim to clearly understand where all these have been addressed to.. but,

HEY, surely there must be some of you guys who know the source of these problems!! why am i feeling like there is a problem everyone knows but no one wants to name it??

look at all the good modders this forum has lost..

if there is someone who really has to leave, i believe it should not be these devoted and productive modders but those who are adressed everytime when a modder quits.. if a community is not productive what use will it have anyway!?

although being new in here i want to be advised the address of this problem since i consider myself a part of this place and want to do something to contribute in any way..
