Now for the bad news. I just found out that jdk002's new computer isn't up yet as expected, which means he'll be unable to do the maps for the release. This means I'll have to do them, but I just can't make the time before the 20th - I'm still making last-minute corrections on my end. Unfortunately, this will force me to delay the release of version 1.1 until Tuesday, December 23rd.

I should explain why the map changes are so important. Without changes to the Galactic Conquest maps, the new, individual star bases will not work. You'll be able to build them, but they won't show up in a battle, so even after you defeat all of the space forces, the stations will remain in galactic, preventing that space from changing hands. Without changes to the Skirmish maps, there will be no secondary station to build starfighters at and the interface problems will persist.

The only responsible option is to delay the release and make sure these features work. Three more days will give us enough time to implement and test everything without dictating consecutive all-nighters. I'm just sorry it had to come to this, but we've literally worked for the past month straight, so this is the soonest possible it can reasonably be done. Thanks for your patience.

I was already growing impatient, this sucks majorly. =(

[thirdworld]

Thank you for not being a big company and still release something that is not done. I think we can all wait considering how much time you guys spent on it. In that light the mod deserves the best release possible.

[slornie]

Thats not too bad!

You could even delay it two extra days and make it a Christmas present

[Phoenix Rising]

Ha! Then I'd have no time to shop !

[Tropical Bob]

Whatever it takes to make this mod the best possible is good with me.

[Valter]

Looks like Christmas will come 2 days early this year! Oh, by the way (and I know this isn't the first time I've asked this so I apologize for the annoyance), has the victory-class star destroyer recieved a new model yet?

[Tropical Bob]

I don't believe he has gotten a new model for the Victory-class. But if it did get a new one, that's great!

As long as we don't get EvilleJedi's model for the it. I don't much like that ugly open wing thing going on with it.

Take your time, quality time is better than quantity time

I really look forward to this release !

Is that the victory model used in Awakening of the Rebellion? If so, then I agree.

[Kaleb Graff]

Now I'm really disappointed. I go out of town on the 24th.

[Kitkun]

Still wasting my Christmas.

[Ghostrider]

Still wasting my Christmas.

Hey, I'm excited and I know what's in it!

[keraunos]

Ha! Then I'd have no time to shop !

Now I certainly won't go shopping after 23rd

And thanks for putting so much effort into this mod, too.

No... I wanted to, but didn't get to it.

Take all the time you need. This and Dwarf Fortress are making it so I don't even wish for games for Christmas!

Did you still want help with the upkeep, or making some of the frigates transverse multiple layers?

Man I haven't gotten on my computer all week! I was waiting for this to come out! But I would really prefer for the bugs to be fixed before it's released, beacuse on the xbox 360, just about every other game has a redicousily game ruining glitch or a stupid bug thats ruins mutiplayer. Even the Best selling game for the 360, Halo 3, is still filled with bugs a year after ts release!

Also, you seem to have abandoned your mod DB mirror. I mean you update it but people are asking the same ol' dumb questions like, "Whie R ThErE Kno Hardpoiyntzzz?!!11!? it r so dumb" and telling other people to not get this mod for that reason. I kow there's a lot more important things to do, just putting it out there.

Are you talking about this Dwarf Fortress? Because if you are, how can you stand the interface? Half of it looks like babble, and the other half makes my eyes bleed...
