Title: Kinky's Blog II
Post by: Kinky on October 07, 2009, 03:43:53 pm
Hello all!

Id like to be obvious for a minute and start with an apology.. I have been way less than active recently after effectively leeching your lead devs for help and producing essentially nothing for Beta 4. My epic bad. After joining the team last summer i got swamped by uni work at the end of my second year and then proceeded to fall into the unescapable pit of apathy that is summer. After doing essentially nothing for 5 months im now back at uni and working my arse off towards my final major project... this, as you might expect, is alot of work.

On a slightly more positive note i want you guys to know that im in no way planning to quit working on this mod. I hope to get going on some stuff as soon as possible (starting with finishing Blofeld's textures and getting him done). I have however started getting more interested in environment work and think this is probably where my interests will lie in regards to a job in the industry. So you might see me working more on environments/props as ive got a portfolio to put together ;)

Anyway, i dont nessecarily know where this is going yet, i just felt like i should give answers for my absense. Major apologies on that. Ill be back to work as soon as possible.Hopefully things have been going well for Beta 4...

Peace out brothers x

I know what you mean. My old computer was slowly getting worse and worse with the weather getting warmer in the summer till it crashed. But last friday I was able to buy a decent gaming laptop, and GES plays fine on it. So you can expect me to be around more too.

I am going to get those done instead. There is a major breakdown between 3Ds Max and XSI for animations.
