I wanted to update you on the current state of the mod.

Posted by on

It has been a decent while since I last posted any kind of update regarding the mod anywhere but on my discord so let's break the silence.

First of all, I want to apologize that the v1.5 build never happened and that it never will. The build using DaC v4.6 was abandoned because after I got a new pc I was hasty and lost the files. On top of that, my other teammate ghosted me after last summer and I couldn't get the up to date set of files he had because of that. That meant that I would've had to do everything we had done over the course of 3 months from the scratch... alone. As that didn't feel appealing to me, I decided to take a break from the mod, especially since there was that massive Angmar bug I was never able to fix.

Fast forwarding to 1st of March this year, I was asked if the mod was dead by a discord member and I had to seriously consider if I was ready to call it quits with this project. Then I went and checked the DaC discord and found out that the v5 beta had been going on for months. I had really been out of loop from all things DaC since last summer so I didn't have any idea it was already going on. Well, I figured 'Why the fuck not?' and decided to start my work from a scratch.

It is not as well fleshed out as the unfinished v1.5 would've been or even v1.3 but with DaC v5 Arnor looks better than ever before and I feel like this update will be a good one. As of today, Annals of Ambition v2 'Restoration of Eriador' is ready to start testing and I hope to have it ready for a public release by the end of May. I am going to spend a lot of time testing Arnor but I am afraid I won't have all that much time to spend on the other factions with my DnD group, trying to find a job and streaming on Twitch so let's consider this a 'Help Wanted' ad as well.

We really need testers right now. If you'd like to help out in any other way, my door is always open but testing the current build is the most important thing right now. If you'd like to help out, please hit me up on Annals of Ambition discord.
