Gandalf, when you say make an 'Update CD' what are you talking about? If you mean make a CD of SE4:Gold patched up to v1.91 then in effect you are blatantly using Cafe Press to 'Pirate' SE4:Gold, Saying the profits go to PBW is just setting them up for the fall.

..If on the other hand you mean make a compilation of the latest editions of the various mods, well, that's different,.. you would still need to get permission from all the mod builders to include their mod on such a compilation. In this light it could very well be an interesting proposal.

So, which of these two did you mean?

Cheers!

P.S. I just thought your post was a bit 'ill-written' to have undertones of piracy even if that was not your intent.

Oh no! Im quite paladin on the subject of pirating and I often take flak on the subject from friends. Ive even recently finished catching up my shareware and freeware on registrations.

I would very much like to see an effort made to get all of the mods caught up to work with SEIV Deluxe, made easy to install, and packed onto a single add-on CD for sale to support PBW.

MODs, Races, FAQs and Manuals, tools. Maybe even some demos for the programs that come up in the "how can I make my own" questions

Gandalf, I didn't really think you were suggesting pirating, I just thought the way you worte your post was not as clear as it could be.

The Updated Mod compilation is a good idea, if Geo is lurking maybe he would be interested in doing something with your suggestion.

Cheers!

Did this die? I would think that this community of any would be able to collaborate on a CD. Would anyone be willing to see their stuff put on a CD?
