    Default Hired by Sony, etc.

    I plan on finishing every single custom settlement before the next real release. As some people understand, custom settlements are probably the most time consuming and massively extensive part of modding in this engine for various reasons. It's safe to say with this knowledge that we probably won't get a new version for a long time. In addition to that, Sigma, a piece of work I consider massively more important to me then this mod, will be going on Kickstarter soon since engine license issues have turned away publishers and I need funding to develop a new unlicensed engine. Thirdly, I've been hired by Sony (technically they are the publisher, the studio I work for is called Elemental Labs) and am the lead Environmental Designer for a third party PS4 game. I'm mentioning all of this because even if it seems like I'm not announcing five bajillion things a week like I used to, I'm still on these forums every day and will likely be working on settlements. I'll attempt to get screenshots of them up on a weekly basis.

    I really hope that you start getting more funding for Sigma because it looks VERY interesting. I would TOTALLY donate, but I don't have a paypal and I don't know how to use it.

    if I may say that

    But no, seriously, good to hear you've managed to get yourself a job in the industry man. With the kind of passion and dedication you've got, it would be madness for anyone not to hire you

    It should be no surprise that the guy who made this is, behind the angry stork avatar, a rising star in the gaming industry.

    I've just imagined an official Zelda strategy game released in the future and Neph has his name in the credit "as director & designer". HAHA! Anyway, congrats Neph on your new job! And break a leg!

    So If I understand right. You are working for 2 companies. And one of these companies works for Sony. Well done. A Toast to your success, And I hope you rise through the ranks.
