I wanted to give you guys an update on the mod. Currently we are down to two active mod team members. Renfl has decided to take some time off and we’re unsure when he’ll return. So KnightBlade and I will pick up the slack until he returns.
Due to some minor problems we have decide to rebuild it from scratch. We worked on it this weekend and have it rebuilt to a solid format which we have been testing. We are adding one race at a time to make sure there aren’t any issues. We are also adding hull progression for each major race. I can assure you we are taking the mod to a whole new level and will provide updates as we go along. If you have any questions please feel free to contact Knight and I. We’ll be more than happy to answer them.

Gladly appreciate one of the original founders of this beta mod addressing the latest news on it. I do have some questions though...When you say rebuilt it from scratch due to some minor problems, how long will this rebuilt take (days, weeks or months)? I could be wrong but isn't this beta mod approaching its one year anniversary? And if it’s a minor problem which I can say I've noticed while playing why the rebuilt from scratch?
It would be great if you and Knight specifically target the crashing and not so much on the memory problems and misc. You have a great mod here which looks already inches away from being declared a full version why not push right now to close the deal on it? When Renfl returns from his vacation all three of you can add nice new features, tech trees and races as "updates" to the Full Version. Don't get me wrong I absolutely praise the efforts you guys went through, even the hacker issue I read a few posts back. But don't put all the efforts to vain by restarting all those long hours. Focus on calling this mod a full version with little crashing or none at all

before that one-year mark is reached. Just keeping it real - the loyal fans of this mod whose been sweating for months for completion would be quietly depressed with another long-term delay.

P.S. Hey Hans891 I'm still waiting for confirmation to the other forum, its been almost a week now I think. I would've posted there but still have no access.
