I do believe it makes Bethesda better but I still feel the loss here at home especially when no one has come along to replace them. Still missing TimeSlip and Elminster and it's been over 10 years since they poached Elminster and nearly 15 since they nabbed TimeSlip. My hope is that some other talented programmers chose to hobby here in the future. Starfield is going to be wild in 5 years either way so here is looking forward to that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he ever had a project that was his alone but TimeSlip was an absolute legend that free lanced all over the community. He had a hand in every major advancement from the script extender to xEdit to DynDLOD and even Niftools. He even filled my request for a program that stitched coordinate named images together and saved me hundreds of hours of work in Photoshop back when I was making world maps out of local maps and LOD textures and he delivered it to me 30 minutes after i requested it. He is likely directly responsible for many of the engine improvements we have enjoyed since Bethesda hired him. He probably has done more for us on the inside than he ever could have here but i still miss him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraquar Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 The "busy bees" (i.e. the coders) are not the decision makers. They might have hired on people who know how to fix, or simply add features that modders are already adding. But do the decision makers allow that? I think we know the answer to that.

worm82075 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Meh, I don't know, you can tell your mechanic which parts you would like them to use but you can't tell them how to install them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
363rdChemicalCompany Posted June 5 Author Share Posted June 5 Its chugging along quite nicely now. 38 unique Downloads which for as short as it has been up and keeping in mind all my locations are inside New Lands mods that are niche themselves, is just fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
