I still promise that when I have the free time available, I will come back to UQM/P6014 and help out.
The situation here reminds me of the fan project to revive the Myst series (although it has to be said that they're having a lot more luck when it comes to people available to code for their Starry Expanse project). Problem is, I've now just started uni, so I can't promise that my commitment will arrive any time soon! The best I can do right now is get the attention of those who do currently have the ability and time to do such things, but it's often been proven difficult to be persuasive.

Wow...I Didn't think P6014 was still a possibility...

Let's hope in the new year... which is now not even that new anymore.

Well if dczanik comes on the forum again I would at least like to hear whether or not this project and 6014 are progressing.

6014 has no active developers, story team, or leadership.

It does have a lot of notes and code, and crucially, it's open source. So, its death would be not too too hard to reverse… but for the time being, it's dead.

It's been a while (time flies, doesn't it?), but I've now got a bit more programming experience and have even been using quite a bit of C++ specifically this year. I'm going to wait on announcements from Fred and Paul about their potential UQM sequel; if they decide not to do one (which I hope isn't the case!) then I'll think more seriously about trying to organise a restoration of P6014 :)

Seems like such a sequel could take several years for them due to having other projects and having a fan squeal never hurts so I'd love to see someone revive P6014
