author's note: the great cc purge of 2017 + mini picspam

Hey guys, it's been a while, lol. Like. Eight months. A long while.

Things have been kind of crazy this year, but I have never forgotten about Reyerstown. I started this project in August 2014 and I intend to work on it, however slow it might be, haha. I've actually been working on the Oliver-Fitzgerald's second update for months, the main time-consumer being that I wanted to finish this massive high school I built. I probably shouldn't have made a high school that big, ha, but here I am. It's beautiful but laggy as hell. I guess that's the price you pay. The school really isn't an excuse, though. I've just been working very slowly.

I have the writing for the update almost done. I just have to take pictures. Hopefully I can get it up before the end of the year, but I'm not making any promises.

In other news, I've been cleaning out and organizing my CC to help cut loading times. Because, holy crap. The loading times. It takes about 30 minutes for my game to load, lol. Purging CC is always hard, but it's worth it in the end. I think I've cut down about a fourth of it by now.

Because it's been 84 years since the update, I thought I would treat you guys to a couple of ancient Reyerstown photos. I hope you enjoy them!
