Archipelago is still progressing slowly. I seem to have hundreds of ideas, and no idea how to use them. I'm out of nodes in one important town, and still have a huge dialog-multiple choice, depending on what you do, that is really necessary, but I haven't done anything on yet.
Our other project isn't progressing that well either... Jedi Nescioquis is too busy with his other projects to be much help, so I'm still trying to get the graphics converted, without any actual progress.
The mod is also sort of on hold (except the graphics conversion, which I'm still doing) until he figures out if he can re-compile it successfully from the source code, which would allow us to make it an actual mod, not just BoE with the graphics messed up. The only problem is that, due to the completeness of the graphics conversion, this mod will be completely incompatible with any scenarios not made with it, and and any scenarios will be incompatible with the original BoE.
So, progress is still not really being made, and the mod may never be finished. (At least that's that's what Jedi Nescioquis says.) It doesn't really matter. I doubt that anyone would really use it, though it would be extremely cool (in my opinion).
Well, back to the old graphic conversion, I guess.

Well, that's not strictly acurate, but close enough. I'm still mostly working on the graphics conversion for my project with Jedi Nescioquis, although I am making some progress on Archipelago. I'm also considering a mod for BoE, but it'd probably not be very popular. But, it's something to consider...
Still no reviews of The Cherth Campaign, though I have gotten quite a bit of useful feedback via the forums. I've decided that for now I won't take the time to edit it, though that could be another thing to consider in future.
Also, I re-worked my site to include a separate page for other spiderweb games stuff (e.g. Jedi Nescioquis's mods and patches). It's under 'Other Stuff'. It also includes the link to Other Scenarios, though Zero Point* is the only one there now. I hope that will change soon.

I've been away this past weekend, and will be gone and unable to access the internet again tomorrow thru Sunday afternoon, so I haven't had a chance to update my site here. The Cherth Campaign was a massive flop, most likely due to some early-design work done by one of the kids that I forgot to edit.
I'm also working on another BoE scenario, this time with Jedi Nescioquis. It involves a complete graphics conversion (by yours truly) and a cool, top-secret storyline (by Jedi Nescioquis). We're working cooperatively on designing and coding towns.
But don't worry, I'm still working on Archipelago (with the kids, but keeping a closer eye on the design, this time). Almost 50% of the outdoors is completed, and I'm currently working on some of the towns. I've made a lot of new graphics for this one as well, and a few that actually look really good. In any case, I hope that it does better than The Cherth Campaign. And to any newcomers, I'd highly recommend that you at least give a try at designing a scenario or two. If we can revive BoE, that would be wonderful.
