Question regarding the life of private servers

Just to address this once and for all (hopefully), I've been doing up a flat i bought for the past 4 months, which is nearing completion (kitchen being put in within the next 2 weeks!!) and Lat has been busy with exams, summer school and his band.

So its still being worked on, just much slower than we had hoped due to the amount of irl stuff lately.

We are currently 9047 lines into the project with almost all features completed with a couple of exceptions (Mob AI being one).

Oh and with regards to open source projects, inf, if i cant even get packet structures in simple txt format with offsets from people, you might as well give up entirely on getting code from them.

Well we've gone closed, but I'm still accepting anyone who I think can code/trust or at least contribute to the project one way or another on board.

I would have loved to contributed to your packet wiki. I just never saw any requests or instructions on how to do so.

First post on the wiki thread:

Or what alot of other people did was pm me requesting access (most of which did nothing with it, but they asked atleast)

Reading and initiative can get you a long way..

At this point, the only person who's shown an interest in running a server again is Saint (yes, he's back and working on CSV3). I don't even care how good a person is at coding; I've already said that in regards to people interested in contributing to CSV3 (all I really ask for is being able to fluently speak English) and even then... still nothing.

i wouldn't say my English is perfect, and i'm not a programer but if you can find something for me id like to help anyway possible, because since two years now my interest in pservers has been completely dead, and i wouldn't mind seeing a good pserver online especially if its by you.
