After a short absence I am back to make another blog post which will become more frequent from now on. Reading all your replies helped me realise that there are still great people around in the community and that I should not be detered by those who only want to cause trouble. I apologise to those of you for my words in my previous post. I know the choice of words were not exactly great to be online but I guess thats what I felt at the time and thats what I wrote. For that I apologise, as I should not have let my emotions get to me so much as to write a post like that, however, I am a human being, who feels sadness, anger, just like any of you. So I hope you all understand and forgive my outburst.
As for F1 2007 Mod. We all know v1.0 was screwed. Some people have been saying that I am just making excuses. Well if saying that I know we made mistakes, and that I know the v1.0 wasn't ideal and that I know and acknowledge the reasons things happened as they did and accept responsibility is making excuses, well then I would like those nay sayers to enlighten all of us un-enlightened people on what is not an excuse. I never meant to make excuses, I just acknowledged our mistakes, and mine most of all, and I acknowledged the problems that needed to be fixed, and did what I can to ensure they do get fixed. This is not making excuses, its simply fixing the mistakes that were done.
I will no longer apologise. I don't see the reason why I should for things that become beyond my control at times. I'm not a god, I'm a human being that also relies on others to help produce the work we produce. Those who like and accept our work, I thank you. To those that don't like or accept our work, then you can simply not play our products, and not comment on them either.
As for the Server Edition, its going really well and we'll be doing another online test with the boys in the group in the morning. I'll be getting up earlier to make the test myself. We're hoping to be done very soon as most of the stuff is done.
I've also been working hard on the F1 2007 Mod guide which will also include a setup creation guide with very extencive and detailed info on every aspect of the setup creation sections within the game. This will be available in PDF format as soon as its done. I am working hard to have it completed soon and I hope everyone enjoys it when its out.
v2.0 public edition is still in the works. Seeing as it will be a hybrid from Server Edition which already includes fixes to the bugs in v1.0, you will have to wait a little while longer for public edition and just make do with server edition which should be good enough for your liking until public edition gets released.
We've also fixed the mirrors. Many complained in v1.0 that the mirrors for some teams were not viewable. This is no doubt because in real life the mirrors are positioned not on the cockpit, but rather on winglets on the sidepods. To counter this you would need to set the look left, look right buttons in the control menu in the game to your wheel, but some people race with steering wheels that don't have too many buttons like mine. So we have made an update which will be available in server edition which will also have the cars mirrors on the cockpit to be viewable in cockpit mode. We hope you will all enjoy this fix. As you can see, MMG listens to its fans and tries to please all that we can, if we can. Seeing how many wanted this, we spent the time to do it, and we hope you enjoy it.
Things are going really well and the team is motivated to continue working hard not only on the 2007 mod, but also on our other mods.
In addition MMG is also making the GP4 conversion with GP4World, and the F1C conversion. We're also looking into a NKPro conversion for all you NKP fans, but that is something that we're ONLY looking into at the moment and seeing what is possible to be done.
We also have a group working on our 2008 Liveries for the 2007 Mod as many of you requested a 2008 Skinpack. Good news is that half of the teams are already done, and as soon as the rest are, they will be released for your enjoyment.
I hope you have enjoyed this update. Stay tuned for tomorrow's update as I bring news of the server edition test and maybe a possible release time as we're nearing close to it now.
I thank you all for your support and I hope you enjoy what we're making.
Regards

There are challenges that makes us even more motivated into doing what we love whenever we surpass them.... Keep up for what i read in your last post, what seems to be... Out of hand Work!!!.
Hi Yanden,
I tired yesterday sending you a comment but for some reason i cant see it?
I'm just wondering how that setup creation guide for F1 2007 is going?
Ive entered the F1A XGN league and its quite competitive and need some help getting used to this great mod MMG have created.
Cheers
Sab
I've still been working on the setup guide and hope to have it released soon. It will be in PDF format so it will require adobe acrobat reader to be able to be read. I'll keep you posted. I'm going to get back to doing my blog so speak to you all soon. :)
