johncrystal00: Why the attitude?
With all due respect, unlike you I never came into this thread bragging about how knowledgeable and experienced I am with every engine, and then trying to make everything about me. You've been bragging since you wrote me your first email with questions on how to get started with Blood 2.

You wrote me at least a dozen emails and I politely answered your questions, and you're still going on about how knowledgeable and talented you are. You're even talking to me about the Lithtech engine as though I've never used it before, and that I have no idea how difficult it is to work with. You certainly have quite an ego. I never actually used the word "marvelous" but apparently you seem to think you are. You can easily gather up a team to do something new with Blood. You could easily do everything I've done as well if you wanted to. Now you're arguing with me that newer engines save time because the tools work on a modern OS. But the fact is that newer engines require far more time to work with because everything has to be much more detailed and intricate then it was in the past. Perhaps if you actually listened to people then you might learn something.

But instead you think its a good idea to call me crazy after providing you with some assistance, and then correcting your mistaken beliefs. Well, gee thanks. I wonder why I might actually get short from time to time...

As for Blood 2 Resurrection, its release will be postponed indefinitely, as I have already stated.

My fault, you said miraculous. You 1UP'd me there. I never bragged about anything. And I only asked you a few questions in a few emails about what you used to edit the textures and how to properly compile the SDK to run on the Nightmare Levels addon which you didn't exactly give me the right answer on by the way. On top of that why are you busy that you can't answer a few simple questions to help out modders who are looking to work with an engine that you know so much about. You do know that you are the only person on the entire net that has a working email that knows how to work with the Lithtech engine yet you don't have time to help. Do you have a 3 year old son, another baby on the way, a wife, and 2 full time jobs? Because I do and still make time to help anybody and everybody who asks me a question about any of the games that I have modded on. You'll proabably try to turn this statement around on me because that's what you do. You 1UP people.

I don't believe that you finished Resurrection. I haven't seen enough to believe it. Why would you finish something but not release it. That's crazy. I'm just glad I'm not the only one around here who can see that you're a hot head sometimes. It's probably due to that mod you never actually finished.

I would explain things in detail but this thread is not the place to discuss my reasons for postponing the release of B2R.

Despite your denial, you have in fact bragged about your experience and talent throughout this thread and in your emails to me. Apparently you're knowledgeable about every game engine there is, and you'd like everyone to know that. In fact after only one month with the Lithtech engine you've now become such an expert that you feel the need to explain it all to me, as though I don't have a clue about anything. But I'm actually the one that replied to your emails and explained things to you. You've tried to make this thread all about your mod, called me crazy for correcting your mistaken beliefs, and now you're even calling me a liar.

I was nice enough to reply to your numerous emails. So please don't say that I wouldn't answer your questions, because I did politely answer your questions. And they just kept coming. If you're so talented then you can just figure out everything for yourself. My time is limited and my personal life is not your concern. After reading all of your emails and posts, I now regret that I took even one moment to try to teach you anything at all. My first instinct of you was correct, and so I'll simply wish you good luck.

As for Blood 2 Resurrection, its currently being developed on the Unreal 3 engine and it would make little sense to release an inferior version at this point in time. There are other reasons as well for postponing this release, which I'm not about to discuss with you, here in this thread.

What? You thought I was bragging and that I was a bad person when we first talked? How in the world did you get that out of our first conversation? You're weird man.

If you won't answer my question here then answer it at ModDB.

Do you think you're my boss now? Because I don't take orders from you.

You've called me crazy, weird, and a liar. But apparently you were complimenting me and mean no harm. Why don't you go talk to the Source mod guy instead? You can tell him that you could easily do everything he's doing, because you're knowledgeable and experienced with every gaming engine there is. I'm sure he would enjoy hearing from you.

Why would I tell the Blood Source modder that? I don't know anything about that engine and I never said I did. You still didn't answer my question. Why is that so hard for you? Yeah I don't believe you but I'm not trying to hurt you by getting you to answer my question. I want to know why this mod was never released for Blood 2. But I'm gonna lay off of you. It's obvious why you won't tell me why you won't release the mod. The reason is more then likely not a good one. So I'm done asking. Keep us updated on the UDK version of Blood2 Resurrection.

I think I now understand why Monolith avoids emails and announcements. Perhaps you also missed me saying that I would be providing no further updates.

But since you're such a wonderful fan, here's some Unreal test screenshots, for you.

And with that, I will bid you all a good night.

Not bad. Will you have more normal mapping?
