I whine because I care

I am almost too afraid to ask, but i'll be the a-hole and break the 2 month ice here:

 

How's it going and what's the status on the project? Would a progress report be possible?

The longer I spend modding, the more I regret having forums for people to request progress reports on. :)

 

Err, anyway, the mod isn't dead. I've not really done much on it in a while, though, since I have been coding Eranon/UB/other things.

Well, a couple of beta versions have been released internally, though thinking about it they should really have been called alphas :). The current beta contains around 30 new items, a couple of creature script overhauls, lots of non-joinable character portraits, and a couple of secret components.

 

Of course that's far from all that's been completed. We have a huge amount of new dialogue written (much of which even the other team members haven't seen so far :love:), much of which has been coded though not yet implemented. There are numerous other things that have had all their details fully fleshed out, but just need to be coded; creature improvements and new encounters are the prime examples of this.

 

At the moment I'm slowly working on beta 3, which I hope will contain a dozen or so more items, the first version of our Underdark expansion, and one or two new quests. After that, a public demo is a definite possibility. However, progress on the project has slowed, because my time as an unemployed layabout recently came to an end :).

Thanks for the infos. I was little afraid that the LOL team members has been spreading themselves too thin among other projects -- good to know that there is progress.

 

I really hate to bother people with progress reports, really. :)

I admire your perserverence :)

The good news (well, for people awaiting LoI) is it looks like I'm about to become an unemployed layabout again, as my temporary job comes to an end this month and I've yet to find any more work.

Unlucky.

 

How can something be so bad and good at the same time?

Well, I've managed to get another job. This one will start next week and last until at least September, possibly as long as until next March. So no countless extra hours to work on LoI, unfortunately.
