Aaagh

So much to do, so little time.

On one hand, summer approacheth with the impending thought of Afghanistan, while juggling officer selection on the other. Really need to find that medical form too... not seen that in a while... and that needs to be in soon if I want to get a place by summer... ah well. I can wait :)

Want to make a campaign map-pack for Cold War Crisis. But my mapping skills are... sub-par... and my coding skills need a little work done to them.

Sort of hoping these mapping endevours don't end up like TYC. To be fair though, I don't think the whole team was reeeeeally committed. Hell, I wasn't. Did a lot of theory stuff, worked out the plot and everything but really lacked the time to lead it through its entirety. Perhaps I'll take that back up over the summer, who knows?

If anyone cares (which I doubt they do, after all who reads blogs anyway? I've never read yours, why should you read mine?) I passed the first phase of officer selection with a 3 month delay. Hooray for me I guess. In other news the map pack isn't happening, but I saw that coming anyway. Been too busy. Transferring regiments in a few months to the Paras, which should be fun. P Company training begins somewhere amidst September-November, fingers crossed. 5 years with the Paras anyone can opt for SF selection which you can bet your ass I'm going to do. Me in the SAS. Phwoar :D

So I'm an bog-standard infantryman for a while longer. Turns out I missed the start of the Para cadre and now have to wait until February. At least by next summer I should theoretically be a qualified jumper, which will be nice! As fore the modding... Well I just don't have the time, there's so much shit flying around at the moment. Emailed some guy a while ago about a prequel campaign to COD4 and that seemed promising, due to be using the MW2 SDK if one is available. Unsurprisingly it's about the Russians. If anyone's interested in helping out, leave a comment on the page or PM me! :)
