Yup thats right folks, its over, and we had barely begun.

It's really hurts me to see this thing end so soon, but I knew it was coming. So I guess we will have to wait until we can get a LotR TC :'(

Later guys! I'm out.

It is really getting annoying when I wait for others to come to the meetings when they don't say "I won't come". Okay there can't be sudden emergency stuff, but hey everyone except tarp, jacen and me?

ok then, 6 pm GMT it is. thanks for the flexibility.

CT, those models look incredible, but i think they would be a bit TOO good for most Q3E clients to render at any decent speed :P, particularly in MP mode. if you want to, feel free to ask her if she'd be interested in helping us.

Bizzeh: level designs would be awesome, but probably not on that sort of scale. The kind of level sizes we're realistically looking at are 4 or 5 levels for the Moria episode, another 2 or 3 for Mirkwood till barrels, at least 3 dealing with Smaug, a giant finale level for the Battle of Four Armies, and such. Level designs would be more along the lines of DETAILED maps of areas such as Thranduil's castle or the area around the Front Gate of the Lonely Mountain.

Ulic (and cmad): No, it is not impossible to get SP code, and the mod can go ahead whether we have it or not. A code-team meeting and some correspondence with the <flattery ulterior_motive=true>REALLY NICE, CARING, GENEROUS PEOPLE AT RAVEN SOFTWARE</flattery> :P should sort it out in short order.

Im fine with 6 GMT, but i might not be there this week, not sure yet. I dont think there are any real objections to the time change anyway, so methinks we'll go with it.

TARP: So the first thing were doing is making a Hobbit SP Campaign? I can look at maps from The Atlas of Middle-Earth to draw up levels.

Well, a meeting SHOULD sort that out. Probably a MODders' meeting. Tarp I need to contact you...

BTW: The meeting is Sunday 6pm GMT, right?

It is unclear to me where we stand at the moment.
Is it impossible to get the SP sourcecode? Can we alter the MP, are we going to make a MP mod?

We need to reach consensus on this as soon as possible since everything we planned has been altered.

yes, that would be great...

but we *are* still planning to do the hobbit first, so that will have to wait for a while

** IMPORTANT IMPORTANT TEAM MEMBERS PLZ READ **

unfortunately, some stuff has popped up, and i won't be able to be at meetings sundays at 8 PM GMT anymore... until the end of June, that is. I'm wondering if it would be possible to shift meetings back two hours, to 6 PM GMT on Sundays. Feedback ASAP would be hugely appreciated.

sorry JR, but that other site is one of the main reasons our initial plan was to stick with SP: the site you linked to is that of an MP only mod.

alright then, bizzy, guess you're our official janitor then. try and make it to the meetings, ok? :D

speaking of meetings: some stuff has come up, and it's now impossible for me to ever make it to meetings Sundays at 8 PM GMT, at least until the end of June. therefore, would it be possible to move them two hours earlier? I would really appreciate this.

about the demo: yesterday, a virus managed to get past my firewall (guess i should run liveupdate a bit more often :P) and decided to infect... yep, you guessed it... the folders that just so happened to contain all my various WIPS, including this. that means that now all i have is a few sketches of the maze layout, so i'll be starting from scratch again this weekend. :( those of you who fancy yourselves mappers, this is your chance to send your ideas to jamaniac7@NOSPAMtelus.net (without the NOSPAM), and we'll chat about it on IRC this weekend.
