Under glass: Butterfly gets put on hold

Bah. Not many mods I’m personally following have been doing anything new over the past few days anyway, and now this? Butterfly, the French Crysis total conversion that was looking so promising has gone on hiatus in preparation for a move to CryEngine 3, as and when that finally turns up. You may remember it as the science fiction third person adventure with the gorgeous floating UI. There’s not too many of those around.

Modder Lenox47 insists they’re not dropping it, merely waiting for the new tech, and it’s hard to fault him for not wanting to be left behind, as it were. Still, no matter how logical I am – they’re doing this for free, they don’t owe me anything and all the rest of it – it’s still frustrating. Perhaps even more so because it’s a mod. Yes, you’ll finish it. I’ve heard that before. I don’t want to be hurt again. Sniff.

Sigh. Back to rolling my eyes at pathetic little children who’re so starved for attention they’ll troll ModDB, of all places. Christ.
