Intro
     O.K. well original Cast Away didn't have a release like I wanted I gave it to my little sister and a couple of my friends and they loved it. But that was two years ago...

Cast Away Again
     In Cast Away all I did was change a few stuff and steal some stuff from other mods and put my name on it, well now I'm almost seventeen, I've realized no one respects leechers and I know alot more stuff about games and computers and I'm ready to put it towards cast away again. I am way more experienced now I have plenty of tools and I have access to the source. So even if everyone else has given up on this game im not going to. I love Stranded II and as long as I'm still alive these forums will still be active. Anyone who wants to help your more then welcome. Here is my TODO list so far:
Spoiler >


There is alot more I still have todo but this is what i've populated my list with for now. If you have any ideas im all ears. I'm not rushing this this time because games should be perfect in the developers eyes and right now its not to me, and i can be very picky.

Notes
     Please post with your Ideas on things you would advise me to do or not to do in my mod.

So , a Old mod which i Ignored has now been worked on again by it's creator

i'll volunteer to Beta test , if you need any betatesters


Its not really an old mod being worked on again, I made one a long time ago but i leeched pretty much everything for it cuz I was 14 and stupid, but i've learned alot and I decided to put it all towards this game and make what i dreamt of when I was 14. Yeah your welcome to beta test whenever I get a stable version worth testing. But under one condition you have to be pretty much heartless while testing it. Because this has to be perfect. any little things you find wrong i want to know.

I think this is a good idea, but I don't think it's good to be really changing the source and game structures to make it "your" game. Peter put a lot of work into creating the structures, interactions, functions and processes of the game and this part would be considered the "engine" but if you have used any of his maps, scripts, models or textures (for game or ui) then you have used "his" game and have modified it.

I can understand your want to personalise your mod, but trying to change the source to make it more "your" game just seems like you're taking due respect away from what DC created. However, if it's tastefully and respectfully done, I think it'll fly.

Good luck for the fucture. I look forward to what youm produce.

Well this sounds nice, but as Psytechnic said, you shouldn't try make the actual game more "yours", you should rather build upon what DC had so pain-stakingly made for everyone. I do, however have a problem with you trying to make the game un-moddable, this violates part of the Creative Commons license with which the SII source code is released under, so it ain't that good an idea

I don't see any problems. He's not removing the information that this is based on stuff by Unreal Software and he's not selling it. so it's okay.
