    Default Aren't you classified incorrectly?

    I mean a BETA has been released- isn't in the wrong section?

    Perhaps. But a Beta isn't a full release.
    alhoon is not a member of the infamous Hoons: a (fictional) nazi-sympathizer KKK clan. Of course, no Hoon would openly admit affiliation to the uninitiated.
    "Angry Uncle Gordon" describes me well.

    You have a point. (Almost) all the mods in development are not playable yet, except this one. A Beta version is a version that isn't stable enough for the release, but partly functional.
    A beta version is not (official) "released", so that is why they don't put it in the released modifications section.

    Excellent explanation, thank you for the post, and clarification, this is exactly what alhoon says with his short reply.

    Thank you for your short and polite answer sir.
    It is always good to say indirect that one is allergic for pleading of explanation.

    Please read the first line and you will see something else than that what alhoon says. The problem is the misunderstanding that mods in development don't include open beta's, alpha's, release candidates, etc.

    I just wanted to say that the first answer of alhoon is the more simple that someone can do.
    A beta isn't a full release, and it's the right of the team to give the more stable and complete version of the mod, that it will be possible to produce for the 1.0 release.

    If you want to avoid the constant fact that a Beta, isn't a totally stable version of the game, and if you want to spend more time to work on the mod than work on the fixes for the beta, you stay in this section of the forum !

    I was polite in purpose to say to you, you were right with your reply, but know you have my complete point of view on the subject.

    Thank you for your understanding

    P.S : A stable beta, is an outline of the game, a platform for the team member, and a gift to the gamer who like the work already done, and who want to test it.
    P.S 2: Just to add that i am a team member of Paeninsula Italica myself.

    The location of the mod is actually up to us, as the forum administrators don't really know enough about each mod to keep track of where it is, completion-wise. I think with one of the coming patches we'll be able to move it to the released section.

    your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch
    down and lick the hand that feeds you,
    and may posterity forget that ye were
    our countrymen."
