Mmmmm..... do peoples at AAA start to realise that developping new maps with all that it need takes a looooooooong time????

.... Something known since years (since third parties developped new maps... starting with Ian Boys....)

Also, if you weren't there from the beginning, it's the devil's own job to figure out what you have to download before you can download before you can download the (beta) file you might want. I think a lot of the initial excitement is dying from the mod scene, as there are relatively few finished projects, and there's no easy entry point for newcomers.

Beta, Alpha, Gamma, Theta...

What difference does it make. I've always viewed beta as a software that is pretty well finished, except the author was reluctant to call it finished. Why, because it might fracture his ego or he might be chastised for announcing a finished product. LOL

Seriously, I've seen software in beta for years.

I suggest not to be picking on anyone at AAA. They are giving you a lot more than any of us could have ever expected and of excellent quality as well.

I luv it beta or zheta....

Not so, The Slot is full release as are several others including the Malta and Italy Africa Greece and campaigns are well underway for them. Reskins are plentiful, as you said but very well done.

I do agree it is tough to find stuff if you are new there, it is tough even if you have been there a long time but there are many finished projects and there is an easy entry point for new users, just gotta look for it.

Still looking forward to SOW/BOB though.

version 1.1 of the slot is out today, it seems.
