Revised Public Beta Now Available!

[Erik Rutins]

I also apologize for the delays. The developer's system was down for a few days. This week we are back to finishing up the update. We are trying to make the next build the last public beta so that we can make this an official release.

Regards,

Gents, any news? [:)]

Also would like to know how the revised beta/patch is goin'

[rickier65]

We have been working on the patch this past week, but have still not fixed the problem we were hoping to address. We are still working and we will let you know as soon as we have this pinned down.

thanks

Rick - thanks for the update.

Any news?

[rickier65]

Erik is hoping to be able to post an status report this weekend. However, he has been affected by the flooding in the wake of Irene, and perhaps also from the latest aftermath of Lee.

Thanks

I hope Erik is doing well, though the silence really points out to the opposite [:(]

[Jacko]

The silence is becoming deafening. 

[Erik Rutins]

Sorry guys, I had a family health crisis this week which kept me away from the computer and work. I will check in with the developer and hope to have this wrapped up next week.

Regards,

The glass could be half full, more time to have the patch and more improved PzKpfw IV in it. [;)]

Yes, perhaps even your StuG IV...[:D]

Unfortunately no, today I finished the Ausf J but the StuG IV needs more work...

[sztartur2]

When do you plan the Pz III series? Also the Shermans look very poor on Soviet side. [:D]

You see there is a high demand for your excellent work [;)]

[JMass]

Sztartur, the big question here is: is it better to add new models or to improve the existing ones?

[sztartur2]

I believe this you know better than me as I have no skills for 3D design. I have a feeling though that the Shermans are so simplistic that only a new model helps. Regarding Pz III I don't know but your question implies that new model is needed everywhere. 

[sztartur2]

BTW Jmass wouldn't you want to make a corn grass element for the patch???!!!??? [:)]

[JMass]

There was a misunderstanding, I meant: is it better to add new models like the SuG IV, III, StuH42, Nashorn, T-40, Churchill LL etc or to improve the Pz III series and the Shermans (both the 3d models and the skins)?
Regarding the corn grass I could try to make a dds file...

[sztartur2]

OK I see. to be frank Shermans are in such a bad shape the need to be overhauled. [:D]  Soviets used a lot of them so they are needed.

I very much need a corn dds for my growing number of Hungary maps so if you do it it would be ever highly appreciated![&o]

For me the answer is very clear. I would prefer improving the current vehicles, before adding new ones. At the same time I'm very concerned that all this work seems to rest on the shoulders of one dedicated and skilled person. And I'm already worried enough about this game...
