Is Kevin still handling the data files for L5R?

[karasu]

I emailed a while back stating that if any help was needed I'd be glad to assist and not received a replay.

Lotus information has been publicly available for a month now and I'd like to have it available in CV. If he's not I might be able to fill in.

To my knowledge, Kevin is still doing the L5R data files. With the recent drastic changes over at AEG, though, I have no idea if he's been able to get the Lotus data in the format the automatic converter requires it. That's something that only Kevin can comment on.

Have you tried contacting Kevin directly? His contact info ought to be included with the data files. I would assume that Kevin would appreciate whatever assistance he can get.

I should have made myself clearer. I did email Kevin first. To date no reply. I have the Lotus database in several formats so if you can provide for me what setup you need I can probably provide it without AEG's assistance.

Still no reply from Kevin and no updates. Lotus has been released for 2+ weeks and the information available for a month more than that. If you guys can't get ahold of Kevin, I'll take it over.

any chance this file will ever get finished considering lotus has been out for monthes and the next set is ready to be released?

or did i just waste my money?

[karasu]

I popped into the datafile page to see if lotus was finally done and lo, there was version 8.0 of the data files.

I loaded then in anticipation of consolidating my inventory up to date but when I looked at the lotus and Path of Hope entries there was a peculiar thing. MOST OF THE INFORMATION WASNT THERE!

The lotus and PoH data files only contain rarity and artist information all the other tags are not present. Was this a compiling problem or does Kevin just not give a rats tail about it anymore. If the latter is true please give someone who will keep up with the information a chance. This is horrible support guys, and I know you want to do better. Right now the Game has a more comprehensive database, and it's an collaborative nightmare at times.

I am starting work on an Update for Drums of War myself.

I've got a bit of it done already, and it seems pretty easy so far, so I might have it done fairly soon.

To the best of my knowledge, Kevin is still in charge of the L5R files. However, I've attempted to confirm this and been unable to do so. Therefore, I can't say whether he's still actively working on them or not. Your best bet is to try contacting him directly and coordinate your efforts with him.
