Hi George, Will there be a new magazine for this month or another month? I know gamestudio development is stopped but we are still here. And as you know this month we have featured contribution from Brian (evo) Also some of us still working with Gamestudio. Having new magazines would be motivating for us. More things and maybe more important things: i know maybe this is not related with you but jcl. But i must say, resource site is horrible and so old. it has to be renovated. Also there are very good project in showcase. These projects can be displayed at homepage. For years, there are few demos and screenshots at homepage but these are very old. Why do not you guys update anything? Even these seem like small things, but are not they important for marketing? Did jcl leave the GameStudio completly to fate?

What if you (or other users) contribute some articles to AUM? In my opinion you seem to have some ideas about possible topics. I don't think that George need to write everything on his own. He already gave as nearly two decades of AUM for free, which is an amazing service. Did jcl leave the GameStudio completly to fate? No, Zorro is powered by Acknex. It's correct that the screenshot on the front page are ages old but updating everything costs time and time is money. Even if it will just take two hours (probably more), if nobody wants to pay for this time nobody will do it. In a business you need to do the things that customers pay for and I don't think that more customers will buy Gamestudio if the screenshots are renewed.

Thank you Ezzett! You make a good point. I know George is amazing person. Unfortunately i can't write an article with my horrible english. But i or few person together, can make a good tech demo/demos (or just good demos/little game) like my Lake scene. Lake scene can't be used as a tech demo not just because it's not enough, also because there are a lot of model under creative common in it. (some of them not allowed for commercial project) In a business you need to do the things that customers pay for and I don't think that more customers will buy Gamestudio if the screenshots are renewed. I agree but isn't the showcase is always important? Every engines have nice showcase.(not in the forum) For example. We have been beautiful demos/projects since years. Here is one of them from 2011. Showcase is full of with good work. These works never moved to the home page. i don't know. We are like a calm and dead sea. I want to change something. it seems nobody will do unless we do. There are very skilled persons in this forum. Like Superku, Txesmi, Kartoffel, 3run, Sivan, so on. (i don't know Slin, Hummel, HeelX are still here.) We can do, actually we already did a lot of good things. I just don't know what jcl think about this. Maybe you are right. Maybe it's not worth at all.
