Hi Geoff, I am a relatively new Far-Cry user and like many was very excited about the upcoming release of Fortress, this was going to be the first version of FarCry that I really wanted to sink my teeth into. This announcement is a shock to the system to say the least as I can't remember seeing any hint of this on any FC mailing list or preso recently.
Anyway before I can chime in with some valuable feedback I have a few questions: 1. Has the new Version 5 been developed entirely by Daemon staff or does it include code and submissions from other contributors? 2. When D-day for this licencing change/ decision? 3. Under the new licensing what would happen in this situation? A sole developer uses FarCry to create websites for his clients, he reports bugs, submits fixes and enhancements to the FarCry team(i.e. he contributes to the ongoing health of the FarCry project) but his client websites usually need some degree of customisations. Thanks, Steve Harris.
