Techsmith of Gond

Any word or updates on when/if the Techsmith of Gond will be added? Aside from fishing, a dog companion, and a fat belly shirt (thank you for those), this is the last of my "most anticipated" updates.

I am trying to find appropriate threads, but from them it appears that it has been a couple years without much movement.

Hope all is well here with all of my old friends!

Rumor is everything—updates/additions/fixes/etc—is on hold. Indefinitely.

Well darn. There was SO MUCH on the horizon, too. I wonder what the plan for all of that will be?

Things are in the works, I cannot say anything precise but content creations have not been 'abandoned'. We are dealing with a back log of things and would like to ask for patience in this.

Duster47's getting trained up to implement and stage server updates, so that development can continue. But there's a little kink in the auto-downloader system that we're working on correcting, and there's a high learning curve besides.

I hate to use the word "soon" about any project on BG:TSCC -- as "crafting will be coming soon" was something I said for like three years before I gave up on false hope -- but we are actively working on getting someone in place to update the server on a more regular basis, and to deal with some of the backlog.

As far as Techsmith goes specifically, though, I do not know when it will go in. As I understand it, it is basically ready. But the only content development priority at the moment is simply getting content updates releasing and working correctly.

Once that hurdle's hurdled, I'm sure QC and the DMs can create an update priority table, and I'm sure Techsmith will feature somewhere on it, given how many people are waiting on it.

I just want to thank Maecius for being honest, straightforward and public (open) with the Playerbase.

We need more of this attitude. Thank you Mac.
