Well, I'm glad you didn't list WMaiD anywhere in this list.
:)
Just as a side note, Ryan Foran is also the second beta tester for "Where Monsters Are In Dreams". Hes done some preliminary play testing (enough to say it's really fun to play, woo!), but seems to be pretty busy lately. Apparently that screenshot Scifiteki illuded to a couple of threads back was not form WMaiD. It was from a map he created for his scenario. Strange eh?

Apparently, Ryan likes (or so he said in an email a few days ago) the WMaiD texture set and was considering texturing "his" scenario with it. That means.... hes texturing Marathon Lethavian (whatever incarnation) with WMaiD textures?

The basis of WMaiD, as most know, is Rubicon. The thought of a fifth party scenario fills me with mirth and laughter.


The best I can determine, hes just playing around with my texture set (basically Rubicon textures + a bunch of my own/and edited textures), using similar architecture to what is found in one of my levels.


Strange Aeons.
;)

As far as all these dead/dying scenarios, I always found it sad. Thats why I never venture to the scenario news page. It's fill with a bunch of promises, most of which never come to frutation. All the major scenario's I've come to admire simply poped out of the blue, or were announced months before they were completed/released.


Thats the reason the poor fellow who runs Scenario News (who ever he may be) had to 'go hunting through forums' to find any information on WMaiD. I prefer for WMaiD to just pop out of nowhere, without having had a play-by-play of every miniscule detail reported.


Now, Scifiteki, drop me an email when your ready to do the final checkover of the terminal files. I believe Ryan Foran will be doing some more playtesting ... after that, I'll just have to wait until I can get back into my school (my school boards on strike until furthur notice) and get the Final Screen off my school drive. I can't wait to release WMaiD on public.

: Good call. On the next SN update, I'll make a call for life pleas... if this
: one doesn't get a nibble from the author in a couple of weeks, I'll move
: it over.

: Dave's got a page up at Moden Studios . Apparently, the loss of Meowx is
: pretty bizarre; there's a news post from a couple of months ago mentioning
: that he owns the domain until 2006, and has no idea where his page went.

: Alexienth is definitely dormant... but dead? I'm not ready to say that yet.

: Ack - this one was declared dead by the author. I forgot to move it. Will do
: so soon.

: Another one I'll put up a note about.

: You might be right... :)

: I have the demos... but I can't give 'em to the Orphanage without the
: author's permission. :(

: Probably...

: It was mentioned once, on June 2, 1999. The mention didn't even come from the
: author(s) - it was something RuGGeR picked up on the M.org forums.

: I'd have to agree with you on this one. :)

: Hmm... yeah.

: Forrest refuses to call this one dead. He periodically applies the paddles,
: but all they really do is make the body jump a bit and knock small items
: off the gurney.

: Whenever I write Lyndon off, he comes popping in through a side window.

: Good list here. I'll see what I can do to shorten that left column next time
: out. :)
