About this image

[Cross post because it relates to my modding]
This is a picture of the new merchant Wayne and his dog Boe for my FO3 mod Dogmeat Overhaul.

My mother had to be rushed to the hospital and undergo emergency surgery a few weeks ago, this of course took major priority over anything else in my life. She is doing better now (thankfully) but I have been taking care of her and will be for a while yet.

Much as I enjoy modding its a hobby for me, something to do for fun and I have been to tired and worn down to enjoy it.

So what does that mean for all my current WIP, well they will remain WIP and not finished until I feel I can work on them. I HATE to do that because I want to release the stuff I post pictures and not seem like a tease, but I am just sooooo tired I really can not mod right now.

Will I be modding for FO4? Depends on how much I enjoy the game, if modding for it is not like pulling teeth and if there is paid modding or not.

I hope you all understand and know this does not mean my stuff will never be released for FNV, just that I need a break. ):

    Don't feel bad. RL must always come first. If it feels like - maybe not work but....... - at least as a duty. Something you MUST do. And you feel as if you have to put RL aside because people expect you to finish whatever projects you have going - for free!! Then it is about time to stop and breathe deeply. You have made our games so much more interesting over the years. And I am - for one- deeply thankful for you sharing your endless hours of work with us. Take a break. Do what you feel is right for you and your family. And be sure to enjoy it without having a bad consience. You earned it

    I know the feeling , not whant to let the people down when you are working on new things. Those that are always supporting ya and are more then just a person that download and use the mod. But still creating mods is just for the fun and fill my hours i got nothing to do.

    Your family and yourself are more importend , if that doesn't go right then modding doesn't feel the same and can not enjoy the time of doing it. Take good care of yourself first and all around you in rl and maby your fun and passion comes back.

    For the new game, i don't think i gonna create for that game for a while and only be busy with exploring the game...is a long time i could do that with fallout 3 and NV becuase of modding...

    Real life comes before games and mods, and family comes before all else RL or otherwise. We'll be here when you get back.

    Family first and always. My best wishes for you all. Take time with your Mother, you can't ever get these opportunities back and they are surely the most important of things.
