    Hey, can all modders who have added creatures and/or NPCs for 5.0 or later PM me with the names and protos#s? I want to make sure I don't miss anything when I go over the protos. Also include in the PM whether you want me to give you a list of what should be changed, or simply want me to implement the changes and log them for reference.

    Thanks.

    Kalshane, don't worry about making Jade Empress rules compliant. She was never intended as such. Also
    It's official. The next upcoming official Co8 release is now codenamed Frenzied Wombat.

    5.5 sounds good to me i think it deserves a higher number for sure. 6.0 would also be fine once everything has been double checked and fine tuned. either way we can just keep addin gupgrades to it for a while before changing the number again.

    He is, although they don't grow as much foliage down under as they used to. Last I heard he had moved from the bush to the landing strip. :eyebrow:

    Ted's become a bush pilot, then? He needs to change his little avatar-saying, then, once he gets back. Maybe we should get him some wings (caution to the easily offended):

    Maybe someone should move it there?

    Yeah, the upgrade system is OK by me, although I'm not positive about keeping the updates going on and on forever without making a full-blown installer release at some time in the future. Why I'm saying this is because it's becoming increasingly difficult to locate and download all the necessary patches and updates as the time goes (and as more stuff starts to pop up). But the update system should definitely live on, since smaller patches are good for people who can't afford to download a 70+MB installer every time.

    Buehler? Buehler? Anyone?

    Krunch told me previously he just wants a list of what needs fixing, but I'd still like a list of what's new.

    If I don't hear otherwise from folks, anything new I locate that I can't figure out the owner of, I'm just going to fix it. I realize it hasn't been 24 hours since my original post yet, but today looks like the only time in the near future (stupid life getting in the way of video games) I'm going to be able to sit down and really work on this for more than an hour here or there so I want to try and get as big a chunk done as possible.

    Regarding the naming convention - if you don't want people to confuse 5.0.1 with 5.1.0 and the like, why not switch to a #.#.Letter format? E.g. 5.2A, 5.2B, 5.2C,... for small updates and 5.#+1.A for every major leap.

    right we should make get everything together in one big mod download for 6.0 since it will be a major add on to the game. right now 5.5 would be fine untill we are sure we have everything ready for the big one :). then we could go back to more small updates for awhile untill we are ready for another big jump.
