Don Drago becomes private...

[KPT25]

Well people... now I bring some news to you, and some aren't that good.

Let's begin by the good ones:

Some days ago, when Liger told me he wanted to do a combo vid, I suggested Gouki, but he said that he can't handle MAX Combo System perfectly. This is a problem shared by many. So I needed to figure out something.

As I did on RB Geese's multi-combo modes, I can set a var to disable MAX and enable SDMs/HSDMs without MAX bar. This will be optional, you will set this system ON of OFF in Settings.CNS (default setting will be WITH MAX System)

This will help people that preffer KOF XI rather than KOF 2002.




And the bad news:

As I dais to GF202020, Aztec Soldier and Liger, I did some maths last night, while working. I've figured out that the time spent with answers to people's criticism and stuff have taken much of me.

The problem wasn't the initial criticism, but the stubborness after the answers. Even proving my point over and over, some people make that "but this... but that...", clearly "imposing" something to me.

In fact, I'm NOT pissed at them, but let's make our homework:

• each post needed an answer, and it took some of my time, since I read, test and only after that I answer;
• some points I prove with videos, mainly when the answers seem to have no effect;
• sometimes, even with the videos, I receive "that proves nothing", and I make OTHER video (as seen in the most recent case);
• in this very thread, you can see that the stubborness of some can take whole pages of "debating";
• at the end of all those discussions, they still think the same thing, as we can see when some people, from times to times, come with the very same thing that was dicussed MONTHS ago;
• oh, almost forgot: they can feel offended, but I don't have this right - as anyone can see if gather some data.

Now.... convert all these items in TIME, and think: how many chars I could do with the time lost?
I've figured out that my rooster could have 2 extra chars done (maybe more, if you take in count the time I spent to make the last one).

So,I'll take a logical decision: I'll make myself private.

Relax... my chars are STILL opensource. I'm making only myself private.

"What that means?"

I'll let this thread live until I make the next updates on my chars. After that, Aztec granted me the right to post my releases/updates in the news board. When the new updates come, I'll close this thread.

I've already closed my YouTube thread. Soon, I'll delete some videos (mostly the "against Evil Duo" series) from YouTube. I think that I'll redo some of them, but now I'll mostly delete vids.

In this forum, I'll keep a low profile after I close this thread. I'll make what some creators already made.
In fact, I must apologize. In the past, I tought that they were "elitists", but now I know why they keep theirselves appart from the community.

People still can contact me at MSN, and I'll be a regular one in the forum, but, forum-wise, I'll try to keep myself appart from MUGEN discussions, and just make little comments.

Well... this is it.

So basically,the guy will not stop making chars,just will avoid the public exposure he normally had...
It`s kinda strange,but he has a point there...
I was at first (he`s putting his future stuff private??) but then i was (read it for yourself)

[Sabaki]

Wow...feel sorry for the dude. His creations are pretty top-notch and his interpretation of what he can do in creating characters in mugen. Sad how some people don't appreciate that...or respect his visions.

Well, glad  that he's still making his characters public and staying away from of the chatter in the community. It can be very draining at times.

[KPT25]

Yep...although let`s admit that even if tough,the AI for his characters need some work overall in order to make them not too repetitive,i`ve seen many loopholes on his AI`s in several videos

[Lightblackheart]

he just wanna avoid being flamed or something

[malisiousjoe]

Sad that the situation has gone this way for em'.

[DMK]

He's not becoming character private incase anyone wants to "tl;dr" the post.

He;s just not making W.I.P. threads anymore or release topics.

So every character will be updated like reguler and I suppose new releases will come out still.

everything will be a surprize from now on

[aa250]

so basically the guy having a low profile because of some serious BS. i don't blame him though. I seen of this happen to other creators.

[Magma MK-II]

Those stubborn guys which he refers must've pissed him A LOT!

Well, nothing is perfect. Not many people know hot to make good criticism.

[mugenmillenium2134]

At least he can still make characters....Calamix can't, 'cause some idiot leaked his WIPs.  Now.....I'll never ever get them.....and something tells me he won't change his mind......sigh, the mugen world just seems so ****ing broken!

I'm making only myself private.

Requesting Don Drago by Don Drago.

I know how he feels, but it seems to me that he's taking it too seriously. If someone's being stubborn about something, and you know he's not right about it or it's just a matter of preference, just leave the discussion there as the Internet has proven countless times it's pointless to dicuss in those cases, and doing so will only piss you off.

so true. so true
