Oh yeah
I'm letting the kids play on Discord with full admin
Oops!
I can simply pull the server down if they get overly "creative" (they managed it a few times tonight)- 1

@Littlebob86
Tracked the artist down
She gives permission but ain't sure what I'm talking about so I'm confirming with her again
We need copyright release
I checked the current version of the Mod in question personally - I now know why it's broken
I'm not going to embarrass the original author but...
We now know how to fix this one.
Personally - this is a 5 min job - then 5 hours working out the skin swap...
Kiddo who screwed up - come join the gang (see my sig) One of our most important members knew nothing six weeks ago, we help each other!

Six new ones today
I'm still working in listing the modreqs (I have many roles)
We got the art release on one req (Moon Godlike) so this one is easy to fix now - give us a few days to re-do this one
We MAY have a French translation available (if you so Spanish, I BELIEVE this is the only missing one - if we get French) See my Sig for the invite. Your translation work will be very light - The cat sat on the mat sorta things usually. Sometimes things are a lot longer. We'll help you out and credit you in return.
We have been EXPERIMENTING with a Discord server this evening - two members of our team are
breakingfixing it at the momentThe goal for Discord is to move away from my choice (Slack). What we THINK we can do is merge our ModDev stuff with Public.
Honestly, we're in Alpha - the channel is three hours old so give us a little time to throw things together- 1

There are stories of OBS being purchased by MicroSoft in a recent leak
In what way can this be on-topic you may ask? (I would)
Here's why I think POE3 is on the table...
Find the MOST viewed topic here (I think the count is 400k)
Assume only SOME of us join forums - typically interaction is 1%, let's be safe and assume 10% (all latter is a guess)
This means that POE2 has PROBABLY sold 4M copies
OBS income thereby becomes around $80M or so
Would such a company be a Microsoft target? Too right it would.
They take an out-dated gaming system, modernise and enhance it and make bundles of cash
Obviously I love RPGs so don't consider Infinity and it's branches out of date (hey - I adore Monkey Island)The Q is if M$ wanna do XBox versions - seems likely...
Why buy a company? To create more product!
So...
POE3 is highly likelyGeez - I spend too much time analysing things

@Biberon
Our group has been after someone who can do French translations for a while
Please, please, please fill in our invite form at https://poe.peardox.com/inviteAnyone reading this who speaks Spanish, same request!
French and Spanish are the only languages we haven't got translation for at the moment
We'll help you out - write any mod you desire and you'll get credited on any Mods you translate- 1

@anathanielh
Request some specific item you're after at https://poe.peardox.com/modreq
Please be specific - something like a crossbow that adds fire damage for example. We don't know what type of weapon you desire

Sprite Sheets (they're dead easy)
OK - explaining this is NOT easy
Just tried...
RightThis shows a dynamic sheet - it's something I have in alpha. This WON'T work on mobile - you need a mouse as it's Drag + Drop
Solve the jigsaw!
All puzzles involve one big image I split into portions - switch difficultly to make it hard (anything above Easy is hard actually)
Note that this is an Alpha - i.e. buggy.
That's a SpriteSheet in action...
I will do a spite sheet tutorial once I've finished my current obligations
Don't worry - I'll make it easy. You won't be able to do what I do with dynamic (complex math) but you'll understand how things work
Someone remind me... -
We're a bit clogged up ATM
We didn't expect this to be as grow the way it has
We have 17 requests that are active. Of these I believe one is completed and three are under active development.
I initially announced this in my Sig so it makes it understandable that by the first time we made this public only a few reqs were asked for
Day 2 - we got another 5 and completed 1Day 3 - another 11
I'm trying to make order out of the chaos this demand has caused - we will shortly let you see what we're being asked to work on
Day 4 (tomorrow) - DON'T stop requesting mods but kindly understand that our team can only write so many new Mods per week - we'll get to considering yours!
Some of our members are having problems thinking up new Mods - inspire one of us!
The modreq channel on our Slack is very busy (the request form posts a message to us)
We should have new systems in place next week to control everything better - as I said, we didn't expect such a flood of requests so were un-prepared (not something to expect in a community like ours)- 2

The main thread - this one's the non-spoiler one (and actually the Modding thread rarely spoils) is now sticky!
The main thread is here but PLEASE be aware that that forum DOES include spoilers - so beware! I know this for a fact as I have to spoil once in a while in my other threads there... Forum rules are marked (spoiler) so you can avoid them where possible.
This one is more active ATM but that's me keeping you guys / guyesses informed

We've been discussing exactly what you desire
We have members who speak other languages
Let me know what language you speak and I will try to get one of our members to discuss your request with you
We have native speakers in...
Chinese
German
Italian
Polish
Russian
If any of those help we can hook you up

Looks like we're doing it right now
Or is this just the model?
-
One of our team just spotted a mod that does (2) above
This ain't specific to the request but should be fine - we can even un-reject thingsThe requester will be notified ASAP
- 1
-
(Hopefully) I've just contacted the artist
If she gives permission then it's easy to fix it (no new art required)
The original was using the Beta - a lot has changed since then which explains why the mod is broken in 2.0.0
It'll take one of the gang very little time to replicate the mod if we get Art release (otherwise we need new art)
It won't be me who does the fix as I'm REALLY busy on supporting the group (itching to make a new mod, got a great one in mind but we need other things only I can do ATM)

@littlebob86
Rats - just checked your req out and there are permission issues (copyright etc)
The good news is that we should be able to re-do it using new art basically replicating what the original author did without any licensing issuesI'll note this to our group
We don't like people stealing our work so we won't steal anyone else's (big discussion on this last week)
We share the work we can't do ourselves with other members who can. I can't speak any language other than English and can draw nothing but can get translations into German, Italian, Polish, Russian and Simplified Chinese (prob forgot one) and superb art for my mods as we all help each other.- 2

Go to poe.peardox.com/modreq and request the mods
We'll let you know
I know one of our team was playing with Godlikes the other day - can't remember what he was doing but there was some issue
If you've already made a req it'll be on our list
Hopefully tonight (maybe tomoz) we'll have a list so you can see what we're being asked to do and the status of the mod request- 1

Sadly we've had a few ModReqs that were rejected today for various reasons...
1) UW Monitor - sorry, nothing we can do about this - this is not a moddable thing
2) Don't walk into the my AOE - you can do this with custom AI although we believe there is a No Friendly Fire mod on Nexus (that may suit)
The remaining reqs are being discussed
It is mentioned that we will consider, but there is no guarantee, that we'll pick your req up
Most of your requests have been superb and have our team very busy
We will be introducing some sort of feedback system soon to let you see the creative ideas we have from you
It must be noted that we're a band of POE fans who are not paid by anyone, this is all completely free work even though it costs us personally both time and money

Update (we work quickly)
At least two requested mods are now works in progress by our members (I don't read everything - there's a LOT of it)
Why are we offering this service?
Simply for the challenge - some reqs I've seen are really complex so stretch our group (which is good)
We also sometimes have issues thinking up new Mods to write so your ideas help us help you

Hugely off topic but...
I know someone's bound to ask what's a ...
Dead Parrot APP ?
That's how modreq (and invite) work. When you fill in the form for either DP posts a message on our shared Slack (it does other things too). This is a custom Slack app originally titled POEBot but it was requested that I change it's name to Dead Parrot
Why Dead Parrot?
It's part of one of our members mods - TT1 Unique Items - and is named after the Norwegian Blue sketch by Monty Python

We had five new mod requests since this post so this is working
One we started yesterday has been completed and is now on Nexus- 2

Since making this post yesterday we've had five new mod requests so this is definitely working
I know that some Forum members have already been contacted by the Mod Dev who's going to write their request
If you've not been contacted about your request, don't worry - we'll get around to considering your request
The first one req has been publish at the time of writing (we started on this stuff yesterday) - oh, @kilay posted it above while I was writing this- 1

This is a cross-post to avoid spoilers
Our group of over 20 modders recently set up a request page for Mods the community desires
The address for this system is https://poe.peardox.com/modreq - all we need is your Forum Nickname and what you want us to do - your forum Nick is required so that the Mod Dev can discuss your idea with you via PM before release to clarify any details the Mod Dev want's to know.
Please note that requesting a Mod does not guarantee we'll write it for you.
Since we set this system up we've had two requests (it's a new system so we're surprised we've had two in under a week)
Backstab class-dependent and Rauatai Scale Armor.
The Forum members who requested these either are already in contact with the Mod Dev or will be shortly as both have been deemed worthwhile so expect to see them soon-ish
If you have a really good Mod idea but can't mod yourself just fill in the form and we'll see what we can do.If you Mod but ain't a member yet the Invite application details are in my Sig.

And we just applied for Discord partnership - basically we get good service if we pass
Two of my friends are experimenting with the service
