Indy Stone Mod development stops - News at 9
JBoat:
Some interesting news from Lemmy & Binky regarding Indy Stone and the future of the mod. Apparently they are handing in the towel, and offering up the mod for someone else to take over. This was an excerpt from the mod's listing over at MTS:

Hello all!
We have a forum quoted in the download page which is where all updates on the mod are announced. We've not been able to continue development for various reasons, and are looking for another modder / mod team who would like to continue work on the mod.
Details here: http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=361706
Thanks and love to all those who have supported us, and apologies we never managed to make the patch jump, and screw you all the people who were unneccessarily rude about the lack of an update, like you were paying us or anything.
Love,
lemmy&binky
While I only used the story portion of the mod for a short time along with AM's core, I know they had a good following. Certainly makes AwesomeMod's Story Mode version stand out a bit more, now that it is available. It will be very interesting to see if someone else in the community has the cohones and skill to take up where they left off.

That's disappointing to hear. I liked lots of the features of Indie Stone and being able to use it with Awesome Mod was almost perfect. :'(
Kaliban:
And a very bad news for those who don't intend to use Awesomemod.

Well, to be fair, Lemmy and Binky are drawing fire on two fronts here. On the one hand, EA's latest patch won't install for them (which makes any further mod development pointless and obsolete if they're still running from 1.2.7) and on the other, you have a lot of ungrateful arseholes lining up to bitch and moan about the lack of updates.

Do they have the Mac digital download for which there isn't a patch available yet or can they just not figure out how to get the patch to work? I really hope it's the former and that people who can code for a fairly complex mod would actually be able to problem solve and figure out a way to patch.
