Catsby's kongfu is not as strong as gbk's. Catsby's link is outdated because the site was moved to http://dark3d.codealliance.ca. gbk points out that Catsby should take some of his own medicine.

Catsby is upset by GBK's poor imitation of him and thinks that Catsby already takes enough medicine.

*Sigh*

No updates in four years. I guess that it is safe to say the project is dead.

Ya, I'm 99% sure that Matthias dropped the project, just like ForceBuilder, JK's other, other level editor, which was dropped because people got a little snooty with him.

You'd think he'd at least update and tell people it's dead?

I hate it when they abandon things, and don't tell anyone...

Gather 'round, children, and I shall tell the story of Dark3D.

This story takes place in the magical land of Mattias Welander's head, which, despite it's enormous size, is located in the vast regions of Mattias Welander's *** .

Mattias started making Dark3D, and it was good. Unfortunately, at that point people took an interest in it, and began asking him questions. This angered Mattias, because often they would do things such as misspell his name, say "Dark 3d" instead of "Dark3D" or put forth opinions that did not agree with his own, whether related to the project or not. Thus, Mattias took his Dark3D and went home.

Later, a monsterously insane human being who, despite being in his late 50s, still considered Dark Forces to be the pinnacle achievement of the human race, convinced Mattias that he should restart the Dark3D project. This was done primarily though textual fellatio.

But then an evil monster from the land of Canada, who is known in these parts as Jon`C, comitted the unforgivable act of suggesting a way that Dark3D could be improved. Mattias, being of the heavenly country of Finland, which is obviously flawless and eternally blessed from on high, declared that everyone on the north american continent was evil, and thus he would continue to work on Dark3D, but he would make it unusable on computers in North America. His reasoning, which is never to be questioned, was that most of the world's people don't live on the north american continent, so it won't really affect many people. And the good people of Somalia rejoiced at the thought of being able to play an outdated computer game 3d accelerated, but were sadly killed minutes later by the government of the day.

Displeased by the fact that his obviously righteous action had displeased many of his former supporters, Mattias dropped the project. The insane old man continues to attempt to get him to continue working on the piece of software that shall surely attain us salvation, but as of now, the great and noble being of Mattias exists only to periodically come out of his cave to mention on df-21.net that he has a university degree and therefore is much smarter than everyone up to and including God, and that all Americans are evil baby eating corpse-sodomizers who are destined for hell.

And thus ends the story of Dark3D. A cautionary tale, to be sure.

....and I bet you'd like to think some of it was made up. Unfortunately, no.

What Darko said. The guy was and always will be Dark Forces` patron saint of wildly irrational behaviour.

Mattias can still be seen on DF-21.net periodically posting about how evil America and it's people are, I wouldn't expect much more out of him than that, especially nothing creative. Oh and if you value your life never ever ever misspell his nickname.

America is evil though! REALLY! MATTIAS SAID IT SO IT MUST BE TRUE.

Excuse me, Gir needs to dance to the stupidity of the Weilander.

He's going to have to live with jaggies for the rest of his days. That is, unless he manages to transport himself 5 years into the future again.

Sheldon is just one of the most beautiful human beings to ever live. And by "beautiful" I mean "hilariously unsettling"

I find it ironic that Mattias dislikes North America a lot, yet he plays and loves a game based on American ideas and work.
