While I'm sitting here reading all the responses about people who are excited about this mod, I realize that the mod itself is dead in the water. My soul motivation for installing this mod was the fact I converted from InvisionBoard and Copland007 had a Garage Mod that kicked royal ass. I thought that this mod would take shape into a mod that is comparable to that and my members would be happy with.
So far, the creator is missing since May - My personal emails to him don't get returned. I even offered to purchase the code to his update at whatever cost, no reply. Unfortunately, if you bring out something like a hack / mod - You should stick around to help / support it. If you don't plan on that, don't release the mod - Seems silly to me. Has anyone thought about picking up where this left off and building something on it? Or is there another different "Garage" in the works? This type of mod has a big impact on my site, and right now the current offering is still teething and leaves alot to be desired (which if development kept up I'm sure wouldn't be an issue).
Don't mis-understand what I'm trying to say, I'm not ungrateful that he released this mod. I'm not unhappy with it's performance, what I'm unhappy is that it seems this will never mature into anything else than the 3.1.1 version it is now. But if this is the status of mods for a "supported" BB, the free "BB" mods are much better indeed and sometimes make me wish I hadn't converted in the first place.
