And with that, it's time for another Shur'tugal Update!
Progress is going slow, HOWEVER I have been working with Planet Minecraft and LegendZero to work on CraftersCharity, a fun charity livestream that will be taking place from the floor of Minecon! For more information, you can go to http://crafterscharity.org/, but it looks like it's going to be a fun time. I personally have been providing Mob Arenas. Might be streaming those tomorrow, might not. We'll see. Hope to see you there!
(This was a non-paid advertisement because I could and because I'm assisting with the event.)
The team and I have been talking, and we feel that it is best that we discontinue the mod.
To be honest, we just don't have the time to constantly fight with code while Minecraft continues to update, and I don't want to continue making promises I can't keep, so today we are ending production on the mod.
However, we will be releasing all of the source code to be available to everyone, should you want to form a group and revive the mod, or just learn the code itself.
Creating this mod has been an absolutely fantastic ride, and it really couldn't have been done without your support over, and over, and over again. It's had it's up and down, and very long wait times, but it's been fun, and you guys have enjoyed it. That's what matters to me. Throughout the life of the mod, I've never cared about download numbers, or the fact that SlyFoxHound covered the mod once, or how many people came to my channel. I've cared about the fact that you guys were enjoying what we were making. This has been my goal.
The mod compared to what we wanted to do might have been a failure, but my goal of what I wanted to do was a success I feel. I appreciate the fact that you guys have stuck in there and waited, all while providing feedback and just generally being awesome, even if it was for nothing more than the current source code and resources.
The team have learned a lot from this experience, and I hope to see bright things come out of our members because of it. But I want you guys to go out and do things too. Go learn Java, go learn how to texture sprites, go learn how to 3D model. Just go out and do SOMETHING. It doesn't have to be something from that list, just go out and learn to do something new, but something that you can legitimately use.
I think I speak for the whole team when I say that I want to thank you for the opportunity to create this mod with you guys. I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys will do with the source code, and I hope that someone picks up the project. Until then, I will continue creating things in Minecraft, and I hope that you guys will enjoy that as much as you have enjoyed this mod. What I cannot say for sure is what the rest of the team will do, but whatever it is, I wish them the best of luck.
Thank you guys. This post has contained more feelings for me than I ever thought it would.
I'm so sorry to hear you guys are stopping. This mod was, in my opinion, the absolute best dragon mod for minecraft out there. Its awesome that you plan on releasing the source though. I know that alone has to be a hard decision. Once you have poured so much of yourself into something it can be hard to let it go.
Thank you everyone on the Shur'tugal team for all you have done!

Releasing the source code was the easy decision. That was something we established on day one- releasing the source code when we were done. The hard decision was when to stop.
-sigh- all good things DO have to come to an end at some point. And here's the proof. Well hopefully someone could get it running. Hate to tell people that I was going to start a server and now the mod has been discontinued. But. thanks for the ride anyways, the mod was awesome! Hopefully someone can take over and go with the dropped Eragon theme. You guys did a great job, I'm pretty sure it's time to put it off. Thanks for all your work though!
Hey Guys! I was part of the mod team as wiki manager. Since I spent a great deal of time learning about the mod. I (with Tak's Permission) will take up the mod. I love this mod and I feel as if it has not met it's end just yet. There are a crap ton of things to do! I would be more then honored to take up the mod and bring it back to its former glory!
I'm sorry to hear this news, as I said when the question was asked about theme, I've followed this mod hoping to add wild/tamable dragons to my server. Along those lines maybe if someone does take up the mod they split it into a dragon mod and then the magic/items?
I do hope that someone eventually takes up and revives the mod. I have heard of a couple people taking interest already. Some personal friends, some members of the teams. If they take it up, it will be in good hands.
And with that, here is the source code. I'll update the original post with this, so that way I'm not drowned in requests for it. Learn from it, make something from it, do what you will. If you create a mod or revive this one, send me a link via PM and I'll put it on the thread.

As I (being on the team) am taking up the mod, I promise you it will come.
so will it be on the books or will it be a bunch of BS?
Well what we are planning on doing is sticking with the lore of Eragon, related to creatures, magic, etc. We will be adding things in regards to having more fun in minecraft. Essentially everything will be within the lore of Eragon but there will be extra features.

so what people do you have? like how mine? and do you need any one more? and what do you say by "extra features" ?

We technically have a full team for the mod. If you have specific qualifications that you feel could be useful please message me. "Extra Features" means secret agendas. I would like to share specific details, but if so, It would spoil the surprise! I believe the community at large will in fact enjoy these special features.

Ok well here is the deal. I would not mind having you on board, but since we are racing to get it out before others, I do not have the time. Maybe in a little bit of time I can consider it. Just practice texturing.
