###**Job Postings**###


Interior Worldbuilders: We are again looking for people who can work on interiors for conventional buildings, custom interiors, dungeons, and things of that nature. Although prior experience with the Construction Set is handy, worldbuilding just takes practice.

3D Modeler (1): Spyder is looking for a new 3D modeler. Rather than rattle off specifics, please PM him if you're interested. PMing me is exactly like PMing him but takes 3 days longer.

###**Update**###


I've been working on a data analysis and presentation for tomorrow. The results could be the highlight of my young career and land me a faculty job. So, as usual, there has been a well-meaning wait but a wait nonetheless.

One thing I should mention is that we recently had a very productive team meeting. Beyond updates and figuring out things to implement for the next few plug-in compilations, we discussed ways of speeding up production. For some small mediocre land masses, we have nuked the entire site from orbit (because it's the only way to be sure). Some cool but time-consuming ideas have been shelved for what could be called an expansion. In fact, this 'we will include it in the add-on' idea has been popular.

Now, team updates.

Zini: (Update: somehow the code I put in hid the text for Zini; sorry about that!) Zini has been working harder than any of us in scripting, implementation, getting stuff ready for the newest master, worldbuilding, and several other issues.

Spyder: Worked on metallic stove creations and a neat new nightshade model featured in the 'Insider' thread. Loads of content are available for those who register.

Lord Alamar: Finished with armor models, which is no mean feat considering the wide variety available. Special/unique/craftable models will come next.

Jacar: Working on a hidden location still.

Hyena of Doom: Continuing the process of working on Britain interiors. We took survey of the number of NPC's Britain and the outskirts of Britain currently has, which is scampering around..God..75 unique NPCs? We collectively went a little nuts, this writer included. Anyway, there are more unique NPCs in Britain than entire Ultimas. And Hyena can continue to curse our mothers while plotting revenge.

LSD: Finishing up cutscenes and the like for Buccaneer's Den. He'll then be moving into the scripting department with Zini. It's been great having LSD's humor and style influence the writing in U9R. He's lent some of that old school tongue-in-cheek sexual humor that was a sometimes overlooked point in the series. He's also created some memorable side quests that have some great dramatic weight to them.

Direhaggis: tutorials, finalizing dialogues for implementation for some early chapters, Endgame writing. My muse isn't slow. I just want to get this right (that and see above).

Kaiser6012: Currently working on Covetous NPC writing.

The Brown Dragon: Editing down around 30 NPC's for Jhelom.

I wanna introduce you to a personal friend of mine. This is an M41A pulse rifle. Ten millimeter with over-and-under thirty millimeter pump action grenade launcher.

Yet another posting of excellent news DH. Let the good work continue (real work permitting that is!)

Just wanted to say I've been watching this project with great anticipation and to just show my support. Both myself and a number of Ultima fans have discussed and all want to say thank you for taking the time to continue forward with this.

We're really counting on you guys don't ever give up! Thanks so much!

I've been out of town on business, followed on its heels by a funeral. Doing 'going back home' stuff until Wednesday. Will be organizing update today.

It's perpetually busy around my work as all of you know, and will be for another week until things die back down. Another factor has been inadvertently falling in love over the last few months. Massively rewarding and lovely, but not altogether kind in terms of leaving any time after what little I had after work.

That said, October updates are nearly organized.

DH, like everyone else, you have your life to lead and it is understandable that there are so many very important distractions which will delay THE project occurring for you at this time. We all just keep our fingers crossed that, as so much incredible work has been done by the whole team, the momentum of this will keep it all going.

Please hang in there.
(I'm sure you will!)

I just finished and submitted a grant yesterday. I apologize again for the wait to my colleagues and you all.
