So, anything in the offing for early 2015 ? - No pressure, dude, but whenever you release, it's ALWAYS an SS2 highlight ! ! !

Where can i find the "AccFam folder" ? 

[673927fee9777voodoo47]

in your 400\FAM folder (wherever have you extracted the mod). I think it might have been changed to just ACC in the latest versions (can't check from mobile).

We get it...  leave the man alone.

Posting every three weeks would be bothersome, but once in three months? I guess you know best, so not another chirp.

[673927fee9e7fOlfred]

I am pretty fucking sure he doesn't need some stupid retarded reminder coming from you to know he still has this project running.

If you really have so much time on your hand that the best thing you can do is pester people, go and learn a new skill and actually contribute to this all with a good mod.

[673927fee9facKolya]

Whoah, man. I mean you're right and all, but don't get too get angry about it. It's System Shocked — being manically adorably obnoxious is kinda his thing. He's like our own Zooey Deschanel. With polka dots!

[673927feea09avoodoo47]

and stripes.

Posting every three weeks would be bothersome, but once in three months? I guess you know best, so not another chirp.

It's not the interval as much as the fact that he acknowledged your first bump, which to me means "I know I know, just sit tight" or something to that effect.  After having ack'd your post once, it's not necessary to do it again.

You don't have to worry about monitoring mod progress since the people involved in them are generally active on a daily/weekly so they know the urgency first hand.  Just continue to do what you're doing with the SCP feedback (I'll probably get shit from ZB for saying that) and you'll be doing your part for the community, since nobody else so far has shown the zeal for it that you have.

[673927feea48cACC]

Acknowledged.

Yeah, I should get back to it.
Most of the textures used in-game are done already, I really really should finish that.

[673927feea5d0ZylonBane]

The main thing I'd suggest at this point is that the yellow stripe and diamond tread flooring textures be enlarged so their tiling isn't so obvious.

[673927feea6e4Salk]

Well, nobody can pretend any of you guys work and share what you create with your talent and skill.

We are grateful for it when it happens and the "when" is something you only have the right to decide.

Godspeed...

Do I still need "Vurt's Hi-Res Space" if I have this mod? I don't know if it includes better versions of what he improved, or his versions, or neither (meaning you need his pack to get those textures upgraded)

[673927feea8bfvoodoo47]

400 mod does not include any hires space textures as far as I'm aware, so yes, if you want hires space you will need to install either vurt's space or SHTUP-ND.

[673927feeaac0rccc]

I don't really understand what the extra archive vor SCP users does. ACC seems to work for me without it. What's it doing?

[673927feeabcbvoodoo47]

SCP includes some extra objects which will not use hires textures unless you extract the SCP archive into your AccFam mod folder. not using it is not game breaking, you just won't have hires textures at some places.

I really should ask ACC to integrate the SCP pack into the main archive, it seems to confuse the hell out of people.

[673927feead2erccc]

ok, thank you. But this has nothing to do with this (out of the AccFam readme):

Unzip the whole archive to the "DataPermanentMods" directory in your
      SShock2 installation folder. The compressed archive does no longer contain
      some textures that should now be supported by the SHock Texture UPdate:
      New Dark mod (SHTUP-ND for short). These textures are included in another
      archive, you can download it from the FourHundred topic on SystemShock.org

?

I mean do I need to do this if I also use SHTUP-ND?

[673927feeae49voodoo47]

the DataPermanentMods install method is outdated, you should follow the mod guide: https://www.systemshock.org/index.php?topic=4447.0

ACC, if you are reading this, please update the readme in the next version.
