HvO-Busterkomo resigned from Wc3:WoW (but not from Condemned Entertainment) after he lost all the data on his PC - including Wc3:WoW - which lost all the data all the way back to an older November 18, 2008 version of Wc3:WoW. We didn't lose TOO much. Just have to refix a lot of bugs and re-implement some systems. Eleandor is now replacing HvO-Busterkomo as JASS Expert who will now be fixing bugs, coding the mod, and perhaps some items/abilities creation as well.
One benefit out of this is that Eleandor will be adding a new currency system (gold, silver, copper) in Wc3:WoW which will be variable-based. According to Eleandor, it'll work better than the previous currency system (we don't have to reverse the setup to copper, silver, gold!) so that's a good thing.
No updates from Abdoma and Hanky yet, but I'll keep you all posted on that.
What the... :(!!
Well.. All the best devs!
He's not a very bright person, if I was him i would have back ALL the files on some privet site or windows live skydrive ETC.
wow that must suck to loose all that,.
Shows how important backups are.
Something like that happened to me 2-3 years ago and now i backup my projects on 3 locations once every week.
Baaaaaaaaaaackup!
