that would be nice to have the release day be thanksgiving if we could manage it
lol, on Thanksgiving everyone will be on their computers rather than spending time w/ their family
Progress has been slow lately, in fact in a months work or so I as able to get the armory, mess hall, 1st airlock and surrounding halls done. But then I hit a problem in my reference maps and lost interest for a bit. But I've worked around that now. I will just have to continually go back and forth between BL and Halo. The only thing I may not include is the engine room, because that alone will take quite a bit of time. So if it's included, it will be in an update later on.
And as for the Gamma thing;
InDev: The initial phase of stuff like games, mods, etc
Alpha: There is a bit of stuff to tell what the final product will look like
Beta: The project is near complete. just finalizing testing and working out any bugs
1.0: The final product ready to be released. However, 1.0 sometimes still has bugs and that's what updates and patches are for
