I have come to a conclusion that I am left with no other choice than close down this project.

Main reasons for this is lack of my time and lately intrest, also support that I have received wasn't helping in significant amount. However I am thankful for those who helped me on course of this revival project, thank you.

I am sorry that this ended this way  :sigh:

Is there not simply a way to put this project in hibernation? I've seen in this thread several persons willing to help with this. Perhaps they simply need more time. several mods like machina terra or the scroll are also like this.

Janus has too much to offer IMO.

If it can be of any help, I can try to send a few PMs to the interested parties to ask about their opinion on the question...

That's a pity Miburo. If I didn't have so much on my plate already I'd definitely have offered to help as I enjoyed working with you on MG.

Remember that some campaigns took long before being updated by fans (even sometimes without the original author). Take crucible for FS1... :D

Hope is always here. :nod: and knowing that janus 1 is one of the rare completed campaigns occurring during the minbari war is I think enough that several people will not want it to be forgotten. and since the janus 2 script is also taking place in an uncovered period... ;7

Thanks kara, I do know how busy you are and I certainly don't have any delusions that you would be free of them soon  :p

Problem is not fixing broken stuff, but the fact that its completely unplayable as it is now, it requires almost complete rewriting of missions. I do have mission scripts incase somebody somewhen decides to take on this project,

In that case, I would suggest to put them somewhere safe as they would greatly help people wishing to start a project but not having any specific storyline ideas (does your script cover the whole campaign, like the janus 2 script)?

Janus 2 is just story line that has parts that are subjects to be changed.
Janus 1 script is detailed to ships and main events.

Any status updates?
No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras

I'm afraid not so far... However we're still open for proposals...

Probably will not see light of day, I have two finished missions and close to zero time to spend with it. Mammoth of a project that I can't currently handle alone. Lets see in 8-10 years when I might have time, however if somebody wants to take up on it I will provide mission details and my advices.
