I think I've discovered this forum around 2004, and lurked for about 5 years
before opening an account.
"As I said in a past thread, a few months ago I completed 20% of a huge dmod I
was working on, but then my shitty laptop got a virus and I lost everything"
Uhm, throughout the years, I've read exactly the same posts about data loss, so
don't blame me if I don't believe in such statements anymore.
The truth is, when you DO grow up, the time is sparse, and creating a dmod is a
daunting task. I'll rather spend my time learning something else, or doing
something else that is vital to my future. The dmod I've started is still in
progress, but I hardly touched it. Lack of ideas, will and time to do it.
This is a relatively small community, but look at the number of files released.
Realeased by 15 year old guys and girls. That took some serious willpower.
WDE+ wasn't even available back then (it's also created by the community me
thinks).
The game is also very old, and has a lots of mods, which got the idea and
game quirkiness beaten to death by now. Like in that excellent dmod "escape",
everything became "same old, same old". It will take some serious originality and hilarity for
me, to make me play a dmod nowdays, let alone make it. But i'll try to continue
my humble work, if I can.
