Update...Finally
Yes, I'm still alive. The rumours circulating about my abduction by Tibetan monks were highly exagerated (it was Laosian Shamen actually). All kidding aside, I took a little break from the site and ES related projects for a bit. Work and Everquest (among other things) have been keeping me busy but with all the recent Oblivion updates I'm ready to get back into the thick of things.

Future Updates
Getting the basic info on Oblivion up will be my first priority (some amazing screenshots if you haven't seen them yet). It will be nice for the OB section to finally get some attention after some 5 years without changes (haven't done much since Daggerfall time). There are also a bunch of site stuff to take care of (JAVA map isn't working for me and database stuff). My various Morrowind projects (MWEdit, NIF related stuff, plugins) will likely remain unfinished unless there is a clamour for me to work on them. I really wouldn't mind putting some work on the unofficial DF engine but will have to see if anyone will let me...:)

Site Info
The site has been chugging along nicely in my absence. We've passed the 2 million hits on the main page a little while ago, averaging over 1000 visits a day (over the whole site we're averaging 4500 visits and 20000 pages a day). The traffic really hasn't let up since Morrowind's release which really shows how well the game has done.

News
As usual the winter months are much more busy for me as I'm travelling frequently for work (fortunately towards the warmer climates in the US). Once I setup uesp.net (m0use is still dead apparantly) last month I've been taking a little time to enjoy a few computer games (I really haven't played any games in 6-8 months). Knights of the Old Republic sucked me right in and is a great combination adventure/rpg game, especially for any Star Wars fans. It certainly lacks the open-endedness and replay value of Morrowind, but fun none-the-less.

As I get back into updating the site, look for the usual Morrowind updates and hopefully a new version of NIFTexture and the NIF plugins for 3DS.

Updates
Added brief information about getting Daggerfall running under Windows with DOSBox to the Windows Tips page.

Mirror Progress
The majority of links on the pages have been updated so they'll work on either uesp.net or m0use.net/~uesp (for all some 800 pages). The contact form script is working but most of the other scripts, such as search, are not up yet and might be a few more days. Feel free to drop me a note if you keep finding any broken links.

Site Mirror
A site mirror has been placed up at http://64.141.101.231/ or uesp.net since m0use has been having problems lately. The site will still be available on m0use if it ever decides to wake up. It'll take a few days to upload and setup everything so expect broken links and display problems for a little bit.
