As you say Kaoz, Doug had a conversation with each and every one of us. My conversations with him were always very pleasant and constructive. He wanted a unified and peaceful community. His contributions and his work to this community prove it and he never charged for it. Like the vast majority of people on the forum, I also miss him a lot. Much. Greetings to all without exception.  |

hi BK Brigade and thanks for your comments. Below I give you fragment of Major Pain's PM to me .. reason being that for 6 years I have been wondering who was he talking about in that statement and I never solved that enigma. As you can see I am not releasing any "for your eyes only" data due to respect of Doug. I just would like to solve this mystery since no one ever came forward as per Doug's wishes to continue his work.
So here is fragment of that PM.. Your thoughts on it are very much appreciated.
" Soon a new Model Builder will take over, with his style and his methods. He has agreed to take on all of my work and will be the Guardian for as long as he feels it has value. I have given full authority to do as he seems he should. Please give him a chance and help him grow.
Due to the situation, he has agreed to make himself known upon the notice of my passing. He wanted to wait for a much longer period out of respect for me, but I said you must not delay. You must move swiftly to not leave a void in the community. I have been trying to get him started and teaching him all I can in this short period. He has great promise.
And second person as well is training and also shows great progress. He did not think he was worth of becoming the Guardian, and would only do it if I found no other person. So it is set as well as I can prepare to pass the torch. My accounts are paid in full and I am ready as one can get."

I think he was talking about Kevin...
But some things will stay in the dark forever. Doug also talked about a guy who would move scripting to the next level, but I never found out who it would have been.
What is a fact is that Doug and I were negotiating with Sergey Orlovskiy, from Nival, about permission to have access to the game engine if we would help create a free add-on mod for the first BK as an extra on the then new BK III, but later Sergey dropped this idea. Sadly, because we came close.
Maybe now, it could be asked again, but that's up to you guys. I'm not the right person anymore to contact Orlovski again, since I'm hardly involved in the game nowadays.

Maybe Doug was talking about his son? I am clueless at this point.

I think it was one of my first questions posted in this forum and never got answer except a joke from member to stick my head up and find out or something along those lines  So I ask again.. Is there a way to find out range of enemy unit(s) in game ? if not I don't mine a joke or two Thanks |

Yeah, i also believe one cannot. You could check them opening the map in the MapEditor... not a great solution, i know, but something at least

Excellent work. Would it be possible to make some for Trucks/Autos? I find myself in need of some for CFCS (currently using tank acks but they don't really fit) and, well, I don't speak Polish. (I've tried but it's a bit beyond me languages aren't really my thing. German, French, even Italian I can kind of fudge. But, start heading east and the pronunciation and everything gets beyond my ability. ) |
