Hi everyone. I thought I would just get in touch with everyone and let you all know that as of today I will no longer be part of Team Fusion Simulations.

It hasn't been an easy decision but sadly I can't be involved in the project any more.

Please support whoever takes over my roll, thanks for the great times but it's time for me to call it a day.

Been a blast but situations develop and it's time to go.

Cheers, Neil "Mysticpuma" Pugh

Best of luck with all your endeavors MP! Sad for sure as your updates will be sorely missed, as will
you.

Hopefully you'll stop by now and again?

I'm so sorry to see you leave MP. Blue skies to you in whatever your destiny is. :salute:

Since no one's addressing the elephant in the room... (and I assume your NDA agreement and general ethics might preclude your response)... does it have anything to do with the merger with 1c / 777?

Hi, thats sad to read, you guys are at the best moment now with the source code and stuff.
But thanks for your updates and all the work you have done, with you and the rest of team fusion, you made this sim to work properly.

So please take a break for a while, but dont leave!

This doesn't bode well at all. I appreciate all of your communication MP and your enthusiasm when relating the project to the community. I personally wish you all the best and like the others before me, hope you remain a member of the community.

This creates some confusion tho at this stage of the project and no doubt the rumour mill wheels are gearing up to turn out more questions than we can expect answers for.

Can't say the timing doesn't create an air of unceftainty if project related.

Hi Neil.....this is a huge blow to all of us but rest assured we all understand how situations change and everybody deserves a rest. You have worked tirelessly for us all and the legacy you leave behind is quite simply awesome. All those countless hours of selfless work have resulted in many, many people, having countless hours of fascinating fun. That's quite an achievement! I hope you remember that and enjoy the thought into the future. Truly, a job well done!

You have many friends here, Puma....please don't lose touch! Salute and good luck!

Sad Day today to hear this news...I really appreciate all the work you have done for this community over the years MP and that won't be forgotten in a hurry...You have been a big player in this story and its a real shame to see that you won't be involved so much in the future of TFS...I will sure miss your take on those updates too...

I'll keep my fingers crossed that a time will come when it is suited that you can be involved again...

Thanks for keeping us informed...

Hope to see you at Duxford for a beer...~S~

Please forgive me if my question was out of line. As everyone else has said, your contributions were enormous and you were the loveable the "face" of TF. Perhaps you will now have more time to spend on your documentary film work. Please let us know of any new stuff. Salute to you Sir! :goodluck:

Although MP did a great job in promoting TF, he is not a coder/3D modeler or programmer... and we still have all those people working hard on the game.

So I would not worry about CLOD and its future. ;)

Take a deep breath, chill, there are a bunch of guru's out there in TFS.
Want to see dedication, ask for Salmo's map building video link. Feel free to send beer and dancing girls just before you slit your wrists. Pure dedication.


Hope MP comes flying again. Man I cant even remember so far back with all the IL2 series videos and stuff you provided for the community. Gonna miss all that,
