This community can be begrudging at times. Look at how some people hate MMG. For what? they say we make promises, but we show already work. We are a large group and it takes a long time to make mods, because people have real lives. Maybe in F1RFT the members not have busy real life schedule and can spend more time modding, but in MMG our members have lots of hard work in real life, and spend as much time as they can. Maybe its the same with F1RFT too, I'm not saying it is.
For me, I don't care about the past of a group, I care about how they are now. If a group is trying to be better, and do things better, I think someone should give them a chance. Everyone makes mistakes, sometimes we meet people the first time with hatred, but then become best friends. These things happen.
No one is perfect, and no one should claim they are. If any mod group asked me for help, I would help, because my goal with MMG is not only to produce our mods, but to also help strengthen the modding community. How can I do this if I don't help other mod groups too? We are all in this because we love modding, we all have our own interpretations of racing series done through our individual mods. Why should it be seen as competition? do we earn money? no, so whats the big deal? If groups help lower groups to become better, then we will have more quality mods in the community. Is that a bad thing?

Its ok, but seeing as you're going with a free host, your gallery loads slow. I would recommend if you want to make a gallery to sign up at picasaweb.google.com and make a gallery there. Picasaweb allows you to make both public, and private galleries. Public galleries can be viewed by anyone, and you can post the link on your site or on here in a thread for people to view. When you have private galleries though, only you can view them, and people you give the URL to, no one else can view. So this allows you to have all your images in one place under a better managed system. I use it for MMG as does my staff. You might like to try it out as it is a very convenient method for image showcasing to the public and to private staff members.

to give you an example, here is the public gallery of MMG Painter Juandi Sanchez. As you can see its not updated so much, not like the MMG one, but then the MMG one isn't public. picasaweb.google.com/zortzigarren

Well other then Seko's wet weather add on, which he is modifying within MMG, I can't say much about the rain add on. I don't think we will bother too much with it in RF, hopefully it will be in RF2 so we can have it there. But again, I don't know what seko plans entirely. I know that he is working on the wet weather add on with the possibility of wet weather physics. But lately we have not been able to get much info from him as he is very busy in real life.

Well most of the guys I have also have to contend with going to school, university, internships, or real life jobs. So we're not able to put in 100% of each day to modding, but we do the best we can with the time we do have. We all wish we could spend 100% of the day modding but unfortunately real life is very time demanding then modding. But we try the best we can to get things done, we have a big vision, we're not the best or the fastest, but we do the best and the fastest we can, and hope everyone likes and respects what we do. Its nice to be able to chat on here with people who have the decency to act nice. Sometimes I talk to other mod groups and they don't like talking because I run my own mod group :s Its nice to have someone who doesn't mind and likes to share thoughts and discuss things. If you ever wish to chat on msn, send me your contact via PM and we can chat there anytime Its been a pleasure meeting you and chatting with you. I hope we can do it more often. Now I am off to finish some final work before I go to sleep. See you guys tomorrow

I think my comment came across wrongly? The purpose of it was to note how refreshing it is to see co-operation between mod groups rather than elitist attitudes that we see (not just rfactor but other PC games as well)
