Yeah, someone has to do it.

I've been basically doing statistical analysis full time to write out master equations to generate procedural terrain data, taking so long to do. I don't even know if it's going to work like I think it will, since I'm only working with data from the Z-axis, but given that I'm building it significantly different than most engines so I think it will work. And it's boring, I'm tired of looking at numbers and I need to do some promotion before we finish the actual game we're doing so that people recognize our name. Thus, SCII maps, and the fact that Brandon isn't changing the team's name doesn't really damage that either. I've spent about ten hours with the editor and I already hate it more than WC's engine though. It takes way too long to do anything. And then I patched it, and now it's crashing all the time.

Your life is really bad. About the name; as he told me, it is changed... Though, I still don't know what it is... Plus, I'm getting a bit annoyed that my acceptance for every new version takes Brandon 1.5 week... Also, any experience with Silverlight?

My life will be awesome once this game gets rolling. I'm doing the GoW thing for fun mostly and going to build an FPS template sometime soon, and we should get models for the other project moving soon. I'm still working on some of the basic scripting before we start much else.

It was taken down a while ago. I'm pretty sure it was originally because he forgot to pay it, but he's restructuring it and rewriting the coding and wants to get more content done before dealing with it.

I don't know. He left AED and we have our own things to be busy with so I have no idea what he's doing.

That's he told me last time I talked to him. Then said the game was done. Then changed his mind and said it just needs to be made then it's done then something something something then we argued about something then he quit, now he doesn't talk to me so we moved projects around a bit and now we're making progress and not getting sidetracked by pretending we care about EoE.

Yes his organizational skills need some extensive improvements. I set up a communications array AED's leaders to use so that we could keep up with everyone else and he still didn't use it.

The new name we were going to use? Ugh... How's and who am I working for!? Going to ease the client and then upload it... Getting tired of this crappy communication failures.

You never were under employ for the company, you were part of a project managed by it. I don't care if he uses the name, that was his choice. Just more publicity for us, which we need a lot of. It actually kind of screwed my plans up when he left, he was supposed to start the studio while I'm at graduate school.

Guys... Can you please stop this inner discussion between you two and let us know just what is happening? :/
How's the project(That is, WCIV: EoE, not AED, not anything else) going? What is your proccess? What happened to the leader, Kingbdogz? Why hasn't there been an update for so long? Is there some trouble with the project? What is happening? :/

OK, here's the most major update...

1. Kingbdogs has NOT payed the bills, = Reason website death.
2. Alex and I (Alex = graphics) are, apparently the only two working on the project.
3. The instance that's creating it has no name any more (It was Eternal Designs.)
4. The very reason why there are no feature/in-game/image/models/story updates:
4.a Brandon (Kingbdogs real name) has a lack of communication skills.
4.b Orders come in very late, and there's a lack of pressure for deadlines
4.c There's no "protocol" about when/who/where to post an update.
5. Ever since Varine left, or "we" left, there's no common pressure on Brandon.

These are 5 major points, other than that: I still didn't bring out a new client because I'm still messing around with it, to be true: There are TWO fully working versions on my computer... Waiting and decaying. I hope to launch both versions by the end of this week... Or even faster. (Holidays here.)

Yeah... we don't care debode. Besides the work AED does is a lot more important. Or it will be once I get the money to finish my research.

I operated AED, NOT EoE. Brandon and I were co-founders of what was originally Eternal Designs, the name changed to AED (Æternal Designs) because I wanted it to mostly. I don't care about this project, however I need Brandon to get done because I have other things I need him to do and this thing is taking forever and it shouldn't be, this should have been like six months of work. HE left because I was getting onto him about progress and he came to the conclusion he doesn't know if he still wants to go down the same road I am, which is admittedly not exactly fun and games for a 16 year old. There is no update, we have no idea what's going on outside of what we do, and Brandon's departure from AED has effectively rendered my input on most matters irrelevant anyway.

Like Debode put a bit more nicely.
We don't give a flying f*** about you, AED or future plans.
Even if we did the title of this thread is 'EoE related', so take it elsewhere please :/

Thanks MusicDemon - That was what people were after I think, so it's safe to assume we can still expect this mod to be released in the future but maybe not as soon as some anticipated?

AED WAS EoE, I am telling you why the mod is fucking stopped dumbass, and correct MD because I didn't leave. There is no fucking news - as we said, Brandon is about useless. Unless you see him, then don't keep asking for it because it does not exist - I explained it before now, none of us know what is going on anymore. I still probably know more about it than anyone on the EoE team does because I have records of everything still, and there is no news for you to see.

I think it's time for me to toss WC3 in it's grave. I remember downloading 30+ campaigns. Never played them. Maybe I'll get to it in about 5 years, but all the projects are going way too slow, going to start buying games like Uncharted 1,2 etc for my PS3.

Goodluck to your guys' endeavours(whatever that even is anymore).

Had any of you bothered to actually read what I posted instead of just bitching about everything, it would be quite clear what is happening. And why did you put his name in quotes?

Nice Demon.
I'll try the client later but the site is only a placeholder? 'Brandon' hasn't quit completely?

GREAT to hear this is still steaming ahead though :)

Yes, I gotten tired of that Brand kept ignoring his duty of paying the bills, so I made a free one... And about Brandon; No clue, haven't been able to speak to him for more than a month...

Given that, even in the event it connects to a server somewhere, the server code for the game isn't done (as the game itself isn't done) it's unlikely that it's an operating client. It's just an empty shell so that when it goes live it'll be immediately available.
