You know, I was thinking of simply continuing to build RF using Creative and MC Edit while keeping people updated on my progress via screenshots in the topic I made for the project, where people can leave feedback and share ideas. Then when I'm finished I can both release it as a separate download in its own map, and patch it into our multiplayer server using MC edit with Havoc's permission.
It is such a huge project that I have big plans for, but the only thing stopping me is the tedium of spending ages and ages gathering the needed resources and not being able to fly. It was challenging at first, and getting the outer shell done without cheating was an achievement, but to be honest, the limitations of survival mode are a bit of nuisance and are now hindering my motivation.
Sure, I could have people helping me, and some were eager to do so and have done so far, (especially Dripik) but the trouble with that is I have difficulty putting my ideas and plans across in a way that people will be able to understand them. People who have helped me so far will still be credited though.
If we do start again, people should at least be given a chance to download the existing multiplayer map and have a copy for themselves, so they can look back on the "Good old days". Maybe if Havoc sent it to me I could trim away all the excess wildernes where nobody has built in order to reduce the file size using MC edit, then find somebody to host it somewhere permanently.
