Oops! :o Then sorry, I am on TRexians side of the argument :D Didnt "Sound" like the Dave I knew but hey how many DM's are there out there now? Ive a bit of catching up to do in this area as we both know. Yikes

Go get em Dave :bounce3:

Frankly speaking and for what its worth, I think had you not used the Yoma method of distribution, more people including myself would of been more than happy to offer help and encouragement. I simply do not need a server client for one mod. I dont like them, as much as I dont like client side download interfaces like STEAM. Adding mods was simple enough with @folder system. I liked the initial release without the Yoma client, that was very much appreciated but you lost me once Yoma became involved, I simply found it unnecessary and just another program taking up space and only for one small specific need, CAA1 so I stopped following the mod. My opinion, release it through regular channels, and I am sure with more exposure you will receive more help, but the little knock toward everyone in your post wont have people running to your door. I hope you reconsider, but I have one word of advise, and its something I tell every modder that I know. Mod for yourself not the community. Mod things that you can personally be proud of instead of seeking public ego stroking, you will be disappointed. There are 3 types of people out there, ones who will thank you endlessly, those who enjoy your mod and think its the greatest thing since slice bread yet are not really into posting on forums, and lastly those who you will never make happy, and usually lack any skills what so ever to create so much as a paint by numbers piece of artwork. So dont mod if your looking for accolades, mod because you want to educate yourself and get better at what you do, mod becuase its a hobby you really enjoy, and most important find a core group of people who you can work with and do it just because you enjoy their company and sharing of knowledge. Thats how we at JTD do things, just 3 guys who like to encourage each other to become better, and just enjoying personally each persons achievements. Community accolades are a bonus, but it really shouldnt be your primary reason for modding. Do it for yourself, your feeling of reward should come first, community accolades on my personal list comes last. Its appreciated, but Im not looking personally to have my ego stroked. If you do decide to come back, please drop the Yoma client. Although easy for most of us, not many are as advanced in working with such things so your client base becomes smaller. Thank you for the initial release, I thought it had great promise, but honestly, I didnt follow it once Yoma became involved. Seems everyone wants to develop their of client server now, and I simply wont muck up my pc with countless utilities when for years, its was very easy to add addons to ArmA. Going by my post count, you can see how much I feel I need to post anywhere, I am more a reader just as many others are.

I dont post normally, too busy modding ;), but I have to for this one. I mean this with all sincerity, this is the best map Ive seen in any of 3 versions from BIS, and better than any stock map they've offered. The hard work certainly shows, and I just had to point out how good it really it is.
