Writing release posting...

FM released. Enjoy!

Thanks for the release, going to play this after work tonight

Good luck! Looking forward to your FM

Welcome to the Alpha-sector. Please keep brain & all appendages inside the vehicle at all times.

Permission to repair the aircraft is denied. Please report location after the impact.

Go play some maps Springs!!

Great news!

@AH: I think he meant mapping.

The drunk set was Mortem Desino. The maiden was Amber from the Voice Acting Club.

What is this Voice Acting Club and how interested are they doing vocals for free projects in general? Is it worthwhile for mappers to go to their forums and ask around?

I don't know if they'd be interested in vocals for individual missions. You can look their forums up online.

Thats all assuming of course that their aren't any feckin clouds blocking your view..

...bracing...

Disaster averted!

Good job, people!

The Celestial Entity will be back later, more hungry...

Authorities have nothing to gain from training people to think for themselves. A population bereft of critical thinking abilities is much easier to control.

Also true. But if the pressure is strong enough, than influential people can surely tip the balance on the other side. Simply because the masses tend to be like a herd and will follow each other.

There are exceptions. And I hope I'm wrong.

What?? If I do this with my works, it all looks crappy to me and I want to erase everything and start over again xD

Speaking of time, for me it's hard to schedule creative work, because I do it best when time is open ended and I experiment with ideas (possibly false leads I have to go back on later), and that's hard to schedule.

I usually get an idea. Then I mature it in my mind. Once the idea has grown mature enough, I start planning it in detail and start implementing it. Along the way, the mapping and idea development go hand-in-hand. But when something is concretely made, it stays. If it exist only as an idea, it can be altered. It is a good way to get stuff done. Constantly move forward, don't go back to change things.

LOL.

They're just a joyful bunch, celebrating the holidays...

Oh, let them dance, it´s (has been) Christmas!

That said, I'd love to make a Unity game myself. The plus side is it'd be nice to make one game that is all mine to its core.

@dema, yes exactly. That's the main appeal. Even if the product will be crappy, at least it is mine. I always wanted to make an own game.

@Steve, no worries. U2 is under production and is likely to be finished before the end of next year.

I'm the official Unity fanboy here, and I say COME TO THE DARK SIDE!

This has cool applications in the realm of "making awesome screenshots" too...

Nice work SteveL. That bug was a pain.

Cheers Sotha, guys! I stumbled on that one quite by accident.

I cant remember the last time I actually saw the milky way with my own eyes.

Tobacco is more often legal than weed. That's the reason, I suppose.

I don't mean in terms of popularity I mean why would someone choose tobacco over alcohol/weed. If you're going to have a vice may as well have something that wont wreck and destroy your body with no enjoyment.

For some, tobacco is adulthood's ritual, later it helps with social anxiety, I suppose.

...but I left it as a toy, rather than a tool.

It is a strange thing... is it not?

It's a plain BSc in Psychology and an MSc in Neuroscience with a rather dark specialisation in neuropathology and neuroscience of mental health. I had to leave because I got too sick to keep up any consistent work. I'm coming out the other end of it now, but I think the momentum's gone now that I've got a steady income.

I think if you're interested enough it becomes both a toy and an experiment, only more like a slinky in that that you drop it and watch as it goes.

This mission is superb so far. Hats off, Sotha!

Will play tonight!

Love it, was great!

Best plan there? Boil large descriptions down to single sentences. You'll feel better with a smaller object list.

Ah, whoops.

Had a more detailed look and luckily most of the stuff is minor they require no action. Just need time to implement and I get this out of my hands.

Congratulations! Also very exciting news

Hmmm...

Hear hear. Seems our species will never learn. Rich old men sending poor young men out to die, again.

Welcome to the real world.

The everlasting Democide.

Good to hear

About time

\o/

As a plastic bag I find this deeply offensive.

lol

I hope this works.

Nice avatar overhaul

Now...you are a pilgrim.

If I could send you some of my spare time, I surely would, in hopes of you using it to make another amazing fan mission!

Spare time becomes more of a rarity when you get older. Use it wisely.

After reading this I immediately stopped aging!

You can't judge yourself by other peoples standards. We all have our very own unique road that we've taken with our own personal obstacles that we've had to overcome. Judging other people by our own circumstances leads to either arrogance or a lack of self worth.

It's not about judging yourself. It's about what kind of life you expect you should have. If everyone around you has tons of money and you don't, you're less likely to be happy than if everyone around you is dirt poor and so are you.

I think many people are in some bipolar sadomasochistic state of mind. They have to either be better or worse than you, and will try to find even a smallest thing that makes you inferior to them. People also tend to have friend-or-foe system in head and will not tolerate if you "just" pass them by in life.

Beer and more beer

Mystery and wonder.

I'm hungry now.
