I'm on my way back!
So yeah, it's been a while since I've done work on re-editing the Exile campaign. Between Real Life (TM), the COVID-19 virus, getting vaccinated for the virus and working on the front lines of COVID-19, it's been one hell of a year-and-a-half.

The good news is, I still have all my previous notes I've made on Exile and I can start again from where I left off. I've got a well-earned vacation coming up in a week or so, not to mention that I just finished up a big editing project for Star Trek Adventures and its fansite Continuing Mission, all of which gives me time to get back to editing Exile.

Damn, but it's good to be back!

EDIT: Thanks again to redmagejoe for PM'ing me at just the right time to remind me to get back to editing Exile. :D

Re: I'm on my way back!
Glad to have ya back onboard, man. I was quite away for awhile also busy with other activities.

I was talking with Macielos regarding Exile upgrade recently, and we still want to make this thing happen... So we're awaiting for progress on your side :].

Glad to hear it, pal. :D

I think to help expedite things, rather than give you my editing notes and let you input in the edits into the mission files yourself, I think it's going to be far more efficient if I edit copies of the mission files myself along with the editing notes I'll make in the process and just give them to you. Considering the sheer volume of editing that needs to be done, I can't expect you to finish it all if I just give you my editing notes, Nyct.

Any major changes beyond grammar corrections will still be subject to your approval, of course, Nyct. I don't want to change Exile's story, just enhance the language. :drevil: ;7 :nod:

If I recall correctly, I started editing mission 17 and did some minor/preliminary edits on a few later missions when I took my hiatus from Exile last October , though I can't say with certainty that Missions 1-16 are 100% completely done (they'll all merit another look just to be certain). I'll keep you posted.
