I hate to be that guy (I will be anyway), but is it worth getting ESB v2.0 at this stage or should I just be patient and wait for v2.5? I’ve seen v1.0 (I think. It was an unofficial, compressed file, from a public tracker) and thought it looked great.
I’m not a videophile by any stretch of the imagination so the updates may be negligible to my untrained eyes.
Hopefully Harmy takes some well deserved time off after the phenomenal task of completing RotJ v2.5, so I wouldn’t expect the updated ESB in the immediate future.Harmy thinks ESB will be a relatively quick turnaround. But the keyword is relative. He may indeed take a break for all we know.
ESB looks fantastic at 2.0. If you want to watch it, there’s absolutely no reason to hold off. If you don’t go poking around in these threads trying to learn what’s wrong about 2.0, you won’t ever catch the couple of flaws that exist. If you do, you’ll be inclined to notice the imperfections. But they are indeed minor.
I just finished downloading ESB v2.0 and did a quick comparison to the copy I already had. It was clearly v1.0. This copy is far superior. Thanks for the advice 😃
I’m definitely taking a break but not a long one - my optimistic estimate is that ESB v2.5 could be done in like a month.
Well deserved!
You’ve even chosen the shortest month of the year to be optimistic 😉
