Hi everyone,
Happy New Year! As you know, I've been gone since May 2017. The reason of my departure is because things got heavy here. I wasn't getting much time to work on the mods. I had so much sh*t going on.
Another major reason for my departure is like what Dan said, I'm a "busta." Dan and I didn't left in bad terms, I just vanished and didn't explain to him anything that was going on. The one thing that stopped me was my bad reputation from the past (2014) after the release of the sh*tty Alpha Version Mod 2.0. But in 2016, I made a comeback to reboot the Beta Version Mod which was a mod that we recreated and follow GTA 3 beta that was shown at e3 2001. It turned out very successful, but then, one thing happened.. in early 2017, in the middle of developing a fix version of Alpha Version Mod (which dan is doing now), things turned upside down again. I was receiving major backlashes and threats. I couldn't handle any critics... I lost hope for the mods. Not only I lost hope, I was getting a tight schedule in my personal life that I didn't have anytime to work on the mods anymore. I just said f*ck it all and vanished. And I am a busta for not mentioning anything to Dan. Dan was a modder who was trying to put a name out for himself and learning how to mod at the time. But he did one heck of a job and I appreciated him and respect him for all his hard work. As you know now,
GTA 3 Alpha Version Mod is back, but none of the work was done by me, it was all Dan and the two other modders he's working with.
As for I you may ask? This busta is making a comeback and Grand Theft Auto III Beta Version Mod will be back in development (only if you guys want me to). I will work on the mod alone unless Dan wants join forces again or anybody would be great. I'm going to continue and resume development where I left off.
Thank you all..
Much love,
