Just a quick update here-- HD is failing on the Ironworksforum.com server (bad sectors) so to keep 'hd writes' at a minimum, I have stopped the EFU server to reduce the load on the dying drive.
SHOULD be up by Friday Aug 26th. ALL characters that you use locally are backed up, as is the forum.. so nothing will be lost.
Also -- I have a HUGE update planned for EFU, but I've been in a full right arm cast for 11 weeks now (fractured wrist). it sucks BAD. as I can't do level design, or my main skills as a 2D/3D Graphics designer.. I'm right handed. ugh.. so boring.... all I can do is type a few times a day and other small things.. blah.
Updates soon!!!!
