Luthier (ILya) the developer of the Korean project using the SOW BOB engine is currently helping OLegs team finish BOB. You won't see the Korean project out before BOB. Its highly doubtfull that either sim will be cancelled at this point but there is some doubt on any further additions to the SOW engine in regards to piracy making it unprofitable.

Chivas, if someone can steal a screenshot and make a map out of it then Oleg should sign them up cause they can work a lot faster than his lot. At the end of the day anything can be stolen we know this, but i really dont think this is the reason behind the none communication. I dont know what is behind it, but im sure if it was ab piracy thing then Oleg would of said has much.

Stop whining.SoW will be released at the end of 2006 as planned.
Just have a bit of patieence for Gods sake.

Of course you can work alot faster when you are pirating other people work.

There is absolutely no comparison in the amount of work required.

Oleg has stated long ago that Piracy could determine any future addons to the SOW series. Why would anyone spend 7 years developing anything and have someone download it for free in minutes.

I have no idea what all the reasons for the lack of info are but its rather easy to speculate what some of them are.

OK I'm worn out and give up. Enjoy all your negativity.

Chivas, c'mon mate, piracy is not the reason behind the lack of communication here.

WAKE UP - YOU SELL GAMES RIGHT? Let us know if you are still going to resease the game and give us a loose time frame. Example....we are here in production and hope to release in the second half of 09.

Get a web site with a forum and update screen shots and movies every week or so. Generate some buzz and guess what you may sell more games and maybe attract new players. I check this site every few days and everytime ....NOTHING

Lol...

@ Mods/Admins, Do you see? More and more ppl are leaving, its not the fact that ppl want to be rude or be impatient or insult anyone at all. As i said in a previous post, ppl who have passion for flight simming get excited about what SoW has to offer, then nothing happens and all info stops.
Then guess what after almost 3 years, blind faith they are supposed to have in ppl who say dont be impatient, grow up get a life and, oh, the crowning turd in the water pipe.. be a man ! ppl loose that faith in ppl like that because the reality dawns that they know nothing more than the people they are telling to be a man, and the insults are just to try to cover up that fact.

And as piracy goes, not the wisest idea to post a texture grid without atleast right click "save as" being disabled? me thinks not.

I do feel sorry for you admins etc, because you stuck between a rock and a hard place on this one, but I've never seen admins/mods snub a community this way and not even be willing to take the communities plea to the management, I thought that was part of your role to interact between the community and the developers, so ..... guess that they are not talking to you guys either?
I hope you can see that I'm trying to help not only you, but this sim and its community too, by speaking honestly and trying to give some logical advice.

Well im signing out from here, lets be honest there is really no point being on this forum, its not even a SOW forum. There Isn't an SOW forum :) i suppose that says it all. Anyway i hope i have not offended anyone by any of my posts here.

Take care all :):) S!

+1 I'll be back when the time comes.Have fun talking amongst yourselves :)
