I agree, but the time for that to happen is not now.[hirr]Leto;1154836 said:Even if the one fix would be to update the graphics glitch so that is could run on new cards and Windows Vista would potentially give the game a lot more life, and most definately a few more sales for BFC, I would think?
But then again, that's based on the system of how BFC gets paid (some in the bargain bins, which from what Steve sez, has already been paid to BFC in large licensing deals while direct sales would still be direct cash to BFC).
Ultimately market dynamics are keeping CMx1 from being taken up and revitalized. That doesn't mean that some day the screw will turn and BFC will see an opportunity to make a buck off of it again. I still predict that the code will not head to the bottom of the Atlantic a la the Titanic, but will some day (like almost all valuable code) find its way to new hands or into open source.
Cheers!

As long as BF sees CM x 1 are a competitor to its own CM x 2 WW2 and so long as they continue to control their own viability, it almost certainly will not happen. If either or both of these things fall away, then it is possible and maybe even likely.
