Yup thats right folks, its over, and we had barely begun.

It's really hurts me to see this thing end so soon, but I knew it was coming. So I guess we will have to wait until we can get a LotR TC :'(

Later guys! I'm out.

and my free time being max 2 hours a day, including weekends :) hey, you never know!

i guess i better start splicing the mp code...

Should I try at least one carefully-worded letter to the JKA team before giving up?

I'm sorry I couldn't work for the beta map yet, I've been kinda busy with RL issues this and the prior week :/

BTW: Ulic, nothing more has happened. The file you know with the notes describes out current status.

BTW2: I saw in a forum that no SP SDK is gonna be released (at least that's what Raven said). We'll check out Tarp's idea :)

Because we didn't have a meeting on Sunday due to attendance issues :mad:, nothing much has happened yet. I'm still trying to find time to make the demo map I promised you, and no models or skins have been forthcoming from that section of the team as of yet. Also, PadawanJonny seems to have disappeared, and we're (at least I'm) anxiously awaiting his return.

It is really getting annoying when I wait for others to come to the meetings when they don't say "I won't come". Okay there can't be sudden emergency stuff, but hey everyone except tarp, jacen and me?

ok then, 6 pm GMT it is. thanks for the flexibility.

CT, those models look incredible, but i think they would be a bit TOO good for most Q3E clients to render at any decent speed :P, particularly in MP mode. if you want to, feel free to ask her if she'd be interested in helping us.

Bizzeh: level designs would be awesome, but probably not on that sort of scale. The kind of level sizes we're realistically looking at are 4 or 5 levels for the Moria episode, another 2 or 3 for Mirkwood till barrels, at least 3 dealing with Smaug, a giant finale level for the Battle of Four Armies, and such. Level designs would be more along the lines of DETAILED maps of areas such as Thranduil's castle or the area around the Front Gate of the Lonely Mountain.

Ulic (and cmad): No, it is not impossible to get SP code, and the mod can go ahead whether we have it or not. A code-team meeting and some correspondence with the <flattery ulterior_motive=true>REALLY NICE, CARING, GENEROUS PEOPLE AT RAVEN SOFTWARE</flattery> :P should sort it out in short order.

Im fine with 6 GMT, but i might not be there this week, not sure yet. I dont think there are any real objections to the time change anyway, so methinks we'll go with it.

TARP: So the first thing were doing is making a Hobbit SP Campaign? I can look at maps from The Atlas of Middle-Earth to draw up levels.
