Oh, how I hate him for that... 

Is the new Nehahra episode going to have more custom monsters and weapons? 

Just wanted to ask how is that devkit coming along? 

I am definitely going to come back to this and address it seriously in May, which is the end of the first season of "Edict Zero - FIS" and the beginning of a 3-4 month vacation during which I'll have nothing else to do except writing (no production, releases, etcetera). Nothing else on my plate, and I won't put anything else on my plate during that time frame. I think I'll have spent enough time away from Q & Nehahra to come back to it freshly and w/ enthusiasm. Plus I can set my subconscious to the task of working out exactly what I want to do with it now.

Yhe1: yes, many more custom monsters.

Very sorry that I didn't move as quickly as I would have liked, but that I haven't abandoned it should be of solace. Most anyone else in my position probably would have, but most anyone else is not as neurotic as yours truly.

Thanks. 

You should check out negke's SPing DM maps, clearly monster placement is his strong suit 

hi mindcrime, i'm glad to see you here again. i can't even say how much i'm looking forward to this nehahra sequel. don't apologize, good things take time and real life tends to intervine all the time.

i've found this helps a lot sometimes. :)
looking forward to neh2. 

yes looking forward to neh2 also!

hope that this realease give me also some motivation to map something :( I've been a lazy bitch to...

real life eat me all the time and the few I got, is for rest 

So it's *late* May, but it *is* May. Now I have the time to blow cobwebs off everything ... not to mention play Quake for the first time in a long, long time. :) 

btw, congratulations on finishing the first season, it was really amazing! great story, sound design, voice actors.. I'm new to audio dramas but just started listening a month or so ago and was hooked. 

Thanks! I appreciate you saying so! I'm looking forward to Season 2, but I'm really going to enjoy my vacation in the meantime. For the sake of what's left of my sanity :] 

I gave this a try today and listened to the first five episodes while mapping. Totally agree it's great. Very professional with excellent voice actors and production quality. Good use of sounds and music (though basically a NIN commercial), and interesting story. I'm definitely goind to listen to the rest as well.

It's amazing how varied the characters are, given the low number of people involved. A few voices sound fairly familar, though it might be conincidence). I'm impressed by your voice acting skills, all the different styles. Socrates is the one of the best, heh. And there I was expecting everyone to sound like Phil...

Not sure if I missed this or if it's explained only later on, but I didn't quire get what Edict 1, 2 and 3 are exactly. Some government organizations + with a bit of conspiracy or something? 

yeah, I didn't quite understand what edict 1/2/3 were either. Partway through the season I found this glossary page here that explains them and gives a little more backstory (it's "non spolier"):
http://edictzero.wordpress.com/glossary/ 

Thx. I also just noticed there's a short info text on the right of each page which briefly outlines the setting of the series. I just started listening without checking for background information. 

 

I'm glad you dig it, and there were listeners back in September--when the show premiered--who were fuzzy on the "edicts". That's why the glossary came into being and that seemed to have been an enormous help in avoiding any confusion. 

How's nehahra 2 coming along? 

There was never a Nehahra 2, only an added episode. I have no plans to work on it now, not in the near future, maybe not at all. The old days of Neh development were nice, but after that, it became ridiculous. Every little thing I ask for from anyone seems to be a terrible inconvenience to them. I ended up having to do a range of things that were simply not my department, and even now, when I asked for feedback on maps from someone I trusted, it is going on 3+ months and they still haven't ... gotten around to it.

And that, my friends, is *it*.

If no one else cares, I don't care.

I'm done.

Game over.

I apologize if that bums anyone out, but I did all that I could. I don't have any tolerance any more for excuses, laziness, half-hearted attempts, etcetera. I'm done.

To hell with it.

Now I'm back to producing audio.

Window of opportunity has closed.

C'est la vie. 

Guess you asked the wrong people mindcrime... many of us are dieing for some new stuff of nehahra.

I'm always up to test if you need! 

Aw shitballs! How much new content was done? Maybe you should just release it with what was done, instead of trying to complete a whole new episode? Unless you've just got a whole bunch of half-done levels. 

is unfortunate :( Especially if it is this community that let you down. There are still Nehahra fans here that would love to see more from you in any way, shape, or form you can release it. Hopefully, you can get the support you need to get this episode going again. Thx. 

Eh... I needed a vent, because--if you can't tell--the way things almost always go when it comes to the development of this, and other people ... just pisses me off.

The original development of Nehahra was one of the best experiences of my life. The related stuff that came after : the most irritating, and insane, and ridiculous...

Nonetheless, it will be a little while yet before I can get back to it. (sigh) I probably *will* get back to it, too, because I'm hopelessly mashochistic like that and leaving things unfinished evidently bothers me on a level that it does not for some others...

When the time comes, I'll come here and solicit folks via this thread, as one final last ditch effort.

Hope that sounds good. 

I honestly cant see why no one would respond to a call for help if you posted it here. 

For any need within my range of capability (like, making coffee, cleaning the floor, taking Shamblers out for a dump).

Nehahra is too good, and your dedication too deep to let this chance slip away.


P.s. (seriously, I can test if you like) 

Pretty sure some of us offered help in this thread a while back. Do we have to wear skirts and wigs for you in order to notice?

Apparently we didn't lick your feet long enough. The bottom line is, you either want to do something or you don't. You seem undecided.
