It appears that I forgot, in all the hustle and bustle of working and preparing, to mention to anyone that I'm going on vacation.
I usually do this from the 14th to the 21st of August each year as a birthday gift to myself, but this year, I was working on setting up the new store. So this year I'm going from the 20th to the 28th of September.
That means that I will only be available during that time for occasionally answering questions on the forum. The point of a vacation is, of course, to get a deep rest. I definitely need it at this point, and so does GF.
That also means work on 5.8G and DMSI will necessarily stop during that time. I kind of wish that were not the case, since things are just getting interesting for me regarding working on all this stuff. But I need to rest more than I can by just taking 2 or 3 days off, and I have to completely distract myself from work to do it. So here we go.
Just to let you know, I'm still working on developing some of the specifics of 5.8G. It's been really challenging working out some of the config options. It should expand on some of what made 5.75.7G so good, but it also means that I have to reset what I learned from 5.75.7G about the limits of how to build and start over. The goal is of course to expand the limits. Hopefully this will allow for even more power, effectiveness, etc. It will certainly add complexity and slow down how quickly I can build this stuff, so I'm guessing based on past experience that it will indeed make things more powerful.
As to the external facing FRM in DMSI I have a solution to how to make that, but it's not yet scripted. That piece of scripting will be challenging to create, to say the least, but I know what needs to be done to make the outward facing FRM module work now.
So now it's just a matter of getting enough rest to recharge and go for another year, and then finishing the 5.8G upgrades. Then I'll bring DMSI 3.3.2 up to v3.4 and we will finally be done with the whole DMSI forced march saga. Just remember that this will be the last free upgrade for DMSI, so if you have purchased a previous version, please DO NOT subscribe to v3.4; instead, send Ben a request for a gift certificate to get your copy downloaded for free.
