If you have any questions, please ask them here in this thread! We'll try to answer your questions as soon as we can, but please keep in mind than many of our staff members will be enjoying various holiday celebrations over the next two weeks, so we may be a little slower to respond.

Vaporware. Thanks for trying.

I disagree with the above sentiment completely. I appreciate Lone Wolf's efforts. Especially working extreme shifts to try to get it to us before Christmas. I've met several of them before at different conventions, including Liz, and know that they are great people putting together a great product.

I have several campaigns that I'm anxious to get put into Realmworks and tested before running them at one of my local game stores, so I'm as anxious as everyone here to get it in my hands. That being said, I appreciate the hard work that the team is putting in getting this done, and have faith that they know when it's ready.

THANK YOU!

Happy Holidays!

Vaporware is software that doesn't even exist. Since I have a copy of Realm Works on my computer at this very moment that is running great (minus the functionality and issues LWD has mentioned) then it simply can't be Vaporware. Sure, it may not have been released on the schedules they originally expected, and updated, for it and there is certainly and argument to be made against it because of that (or more likely a "lesson learned" for LWD to simply never mention even seasons for some kind of release date, because they'll just catch hell for it from comments like the above) but it most assuredly isn't vaporware.

It is starting to feel like that isn't it.

@EightBitz: After putting in 100-hour weeks on this end, your comment is at best unnecessary and at worst could delay things further by serving as a DE-motivator to the team. I understand that you're frustrated, but we're all very raw on this end and your comments DO have an impact on us. Please keep this in mind when posting.

@Aleslosh and @brenthberry: Thanks for the votes of support! It's nice to know that our hard work is appreciated. It helps keep us going through the marathon days of getting everything working just right.

Comments like that are understandable, people are incredibly hyped for it and the let down of not getting our greasy mitts on it sooner is a disappointment, but don't let the comments like that get to you. You guys are doing a fantastic job, get some rest and hit it hard when you get back.

Rob, you and everyone else on the RW team are doing brilliantly. Yeah, it sucks for people who haven't got RW yet to know that they're not going to get it for a while. Yes, you haven't been able to meet the schedules you were hoping to meet.

It's not as if you haven't been trying. In fact, from your updates and posts here, we know that all of you have been going above and beyond trying to hit your schedules.

I wouldn't wish the pressure you've put yourselves under on anyone. But you've done it, and you haven't complained, and you still keep working.

Don't kill yourselves, enjoy the holiday season.

It's an excellent piece of software that works incredibly well.
That also includes all the bugs and quirky crash events.

The lone wolf team are working hard to make this, cut them some slack. Don't throw your dummy out of the pram because it's not been released yet.
