Been quite a while without updates

[unknown321]

Updates are on hold due to the lack of finances. I am forced to get a job so don't expect anything new for at least half a year. FYI last donation was like 3 months ago; mod had received about $220 since its release (August 2025 - Jan 2026).

Well that sucks. Not to be rude or anything, but kinda expected. All the "modern audience" is on Nexus mods. Boosty page is empty without any news. You got to give people something regularly in order to get donations. The best outcome is to make patreon, upload this mod to nexus and share updates semi-regularly. As example seamless coop for ds/elden ring etc. Paid news on patreon with some free ones from time to time. Even some small talk about random things would get people invested.

But hey, still did a great job with mod. Hope when you return to it someday you could build momentum and listen to the advice. You made fantastic work, just take a bit more interactions with other people outside github.

TLDR: Nexus and ad providers also own the mod after uploading, forever. Don't like it; not going to publish the mod on Nexus.

Boosty page is empty without any news

The best kind of news is "new version is out" one, but development is on hold, so there are no news. I guess I should make one about the current situation.

some small talk about random things

We used to have small talk about mod things from time to time in Modders' Heaven Discord, but I don't have time for that anymore (busy looking for a job).

Got me there ;)

You can be purist all you want, but if you want to make it more that $220 you have to. It has big audience and somewhat discoverability.

I meant in more details. "Did XYZ, here is a screenshot/video comparison." Or "did this and that. didn't work as intended, scrapped. * random meme pic *"

Discord group is still very niche compared to your donation page or nexus posts possibilities.

Hope you find a remote job with a lot of free time cause office sucks 👍

You could probably post some old or not full version on Nexus, link the github (ive seen others link it for sure) and just never update it there. Something along the lines that you only post major stable updates on Nexus :D

Edit. and I just searched "coop" on MGS reddit and could not find a single post about your mod. Gotta do some social media work. A couple of good funny clips demonstrating coop can go a long way

Edit2. I posted a clip from your video and got to top 3 on HOT page in like half a day - 500 upvotes.

With some effort you can hold that spot at all times and get coverage that way. Just post updates how you made another mission work + video.
