    This is great news. I'll finally get an excuse to listen to the games music again.

    sorry ted do you mean to release a final version of KotB? I've been lost on how big this is so I don't know if there's more after your current stuff (caves and inner bailey)

    Ok, to explain: this release (still having packing problems but have advanced in the queue, so to speak) will be a full 1.0 release in that it will have all the Caves of Chaos (bar the Orcs) and you will be able to play through to the end in the Shrine of Evil Chaos and enjoy a selection from 30 endslides afterwards. But there will be versions 2 and 3 after that which flesh out the alignment quests and improve/expand a variety of areas, plus have alternate endings.

    mod that doesn't exist

    I came to this forum back in 2005 when I was interested in TOEE extras. Back then "Shining Ted" posted "updates" on a "mod" he was working on concerning caves or something. I came back to this forum today because I was cleaning out my bookmarks and clicked on co8 out of curiosity. I'm profoundly entertained to know that you guys are still holding out hope that someone is working on extra content for TOEE. I hate to spoil it for you but you should have figured it out from the beginning; the mod or added content that Shining Ted has been boasting about has never existed. Only the co8 patch exists, which is a great user-made patch, but no one has ever released a campaign mod and no one ever will. You've been strung along on a lie since 2005! Move on.

    Right ... Brad -_-

    Obviously you haven't bothered to check out the versions of Ted's campaign THAT HE ALREADY RELEASED, pretty hard for them to never exist when many of us have actually played the campaign.

    I would greatly appreciate it if you actually did some reading before posting.

    Years ago I understood that some people are simply BORN to moan. Simple as that. I have met during my life and career people that acually are ACTIVLY looking for things to moan about. Simple as that....

    ^ This is so true ... even with the regular modpack, if we added a feature called 'fix for every bug ever found in ToEE,' some chronic complainers would still say "Oh NOOOO!!!!" :roll:

    :p

    hmmm just a thought, but ...

    wouldn't this project get done a LOT FASTER (and get more of it done in the process) if it was more of a GROUP effort and not just 1 man (Ted) doing ALL of the work?

    Ted why does it seem you are the only one working on it? Why can't others in the community help you out, too? All of the load does not squarely have to rest only on you ... does it?

    This is used as a sig line by a user (actually one of the game's beta testers) on a flight sim forum I frequent:

    "Some people revel in being unhappy. That's a problem that can't be patched."

    Pretty well sums it up.
    Keep up the great work, guys!
