We haven't seen any indication that the project is still alive for more than a year now. It would be a shame if all the work that has been done would go to waste. If anything, make the source code available either to the public on github or to someone in the community that is still active. It would be nice if some of the hype I and many others had for this many years ago would actually lead to something.

Just wait, they often go "MIA" for long periods of time, as you'll notice this project has been going on for 10+ years.

I am so excited about this mod. I want to believe it will be released before 2020. It could be something i always wanted - old good diablo remaked to perfection with nearly open source. I am not afraid to say that - it could be true diablo 3 shining among all others diablo-like games. If this will be ever released, i have my main game forever. Thnak you so much to all mod makers involved in this project.

Can we expect any release date in 2020?

Holding out hope, but over 4 years without any update equates to the death knell of a project IMO. Damn shame too

Thanks for the info kingpin.

Btw, is there any screenshot still alive, or old video of this mod, just curious a little bit.
I was able to find screenshot still alive http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc71 ... mption.gif
There was also good amount of links leading to album page here on the keep, but I guess they are dead, maybe they are just broken, but they could be deleted, can that be checked out if not a time consuming.

Few examples:
album_page.php?pic_id=3018
album_page.php?pic_id=2823
album_page.php?pic_id=2819

Thank You :P

That's amazing news. I've been eyeing this thread for the longest time, and to get an update is fantastic.

I mean, the literal dissection and reassembly of an entire game is monumental and I'm sure it will be something to behold when the time is right for release :D

Waiting for Metalstorm starts to feel like waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 (pre-E3 announcement).

But I still don't get the reason behind not sharing any screenshots, videos etc. If the development is stalling, it might be a good idea to recruit people to the team or to go open source.

Nefarius doesn't like getting bombarded with an infinite amount of PM's regarding the mod or code editing related questions, so he chose to remove himself from the public eye.
That being said, it is kind of rude for these kinds of comments to continue to pop up even after Kingpin stated that the mod is still alive, just not active here.
