Still on schedule, but a "race to the finish line". We want it right the first time so, once we have it all built, we will make sure we haven't missed anything and that it all works as designed. Quality is going to be the driving factor.
Just so you know, I have actually seen posts on other forums where the anti-mod crowd has made comments about The Slot like "...they are not developers, so the Slot probably won't be up to typical IL2 standards..." ROFLMAO...one of my personal goals is to release a map with standards that so far exceed PF's, that every Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO) afficianado in the anti-mod crowd will come "to the darkside", just so he can get his hands on it! I'm prejudiced, but I would stack this map up against any default PTO map we have been given to date.
Over the next few weeks we will be compiling; looking at every square inch of the map, from a QA perspective; refining the 2D map, working on the installer; completing the Readme file; and having a small, select group of beta testers (hardcore mission builders) give it "the once over". Please, no flurry of beta test volunteers - we pretty much know who they are going to be. When Skunk approves the proposed list we will get in contact them.
When it's all done, Skunkmeister will make the final decision on release to Fly_zo/AAA.
