StoryMusgrave Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Maybe he stopped. Maybe he decided it wasn't worth it to work on CSS because everyone was complaining, blah, blah, blah. Deleted his own posts. Don't know.Regardless. He is still around and posting elsewhere. All it takes is a simple search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thesonicgalaxy Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Any news? Also what the hell happened to raidernick?Right now, I'm just waiting on further news from the others. Can't really do much without the new model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BudgetHedgehog Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 For a game about going to space, the one mod that does the Space Shuttle well is, for some reason, the one with the most troubles. You'd think that it'd be one of the most popular mods around but nooo... Maintainers are being banned, people are abandoning it left, right and centre.. Just seems weird to me, that such an iconic part of space travel is having trouble getting into a game about space travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtualgenius Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 This mod has had a long history of problems its been stopped and started a few times, but its still here so lets be patient and lets see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strikeeagle345 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I am not sure if you guys are reading through the posts or not, but Dragon is still working on it. Just not on this site anymore. He is waiting for the new model and will work from there (if i am not mistaking). So it's not dead, just slowed in development.

Just seems weird to me, that such an iconic part of space travel is having trouble getting into a game about space travel.Yes, for a game about space, NOT having a viable shuttle is quite strange, noting however that the Space Shuttle is a wildly complex bird to perform correctly. That and this program is being developed as a game, not a simulator. As such, you get a different crowd as it's main audience, not the usual 'replica/simulator' crowd.Now, people are banned for a reason, not just willy nilly. The fact that it was a maintainer or developer should not matter. Break the rules. Good-bye. People abandoning it, well raidernick tried to help and was met with loads of grief that IMO was undeserved. I don't blame him for bowing out.

Strikeeagle345 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Waiting for a new model?Yeah, Look back a page or two. there is a new model being made for this mod.

I don't think that was the reason.RaiderNick didn't have the new model, and Jovzin is going to be making it for Dragon01's version anyway. So he saw no reason in maintaining this if someone else was going to do it and it would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NathanKell Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 See that thing over there? In the distance? It's the topic. Please stay on it.Comparing modders' abilities or speculating on why they are or are not doing things? That's not it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sp1989 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 He wouldn't be getting the new model though. It's just going to be easier on everybody.That's absolutely not true. Now we have to wait for jovzin to finish and maybe sometime in the next few months Dragon will work on it. Raidernick had stuff done!! He would have had this thing going before the middle of January. He deleted his posts. The work he had done already was 10x more than dragon had done in half a year. I'm sorry Nathan but this thread has no defined leader. However this is my last post on the matter of this mod lives the so be it I personally don't care anymore. You guys pushed a great modder off the project because of some unexplainable loyalty to Dragon. Raidernick is a modder and has done fantastic things AND had permission to take over the mod. But you guys want tepid maintaince from dragon. So what ever happens will happen now. Im done with this thread until something happens. Happy Holidays to all.

A broken model that makes it harder for us to work with, or wait for a new model that will look better, fly better, and be MUCH easier for us to use and update. Nobody pushed him off, he left on his own. Stop blaming this on something that it shouldn't be blamed on. I honestly don't care who works on it as long as we get the new model, which is why I'm going with Dragon01. If raidernick was getting it, then I'd be going with him. This shall also be my last post on the matter. Let's just wait and see what Dragon01 does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kartoffelkuchen Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Hey KartoffelKopf (another Kartoffel, yay! ), you can find the download link on the front page, but I linked it here again for you: http://www./download/f2f6ywszsehylud/CSS.ZIPI'm not sure if this is completely compatible with 0.90, check if there's a newer Firespitter version out.

Virtualgenius Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) We are not allowed to know or question why the ban was imposed we will find out in due course as he is moving his updates to a different location refer post #794 Edited December 25, 2014 by Virtualgenius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KartoffelKopf Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Thank you Kartoffelkuchen! But you´re right, it doesn´t work completly accurate with the 0.90 So you can´t open the door of the payload bay and the landing gear isn´t working as wellI hope somebody can fix that.
