I haven't been in contact with him there for a couple of years, but from what I know he's still on Discord as 'QuarkBlitz'.

Hey Hunter, good to see you again. Was ASM the modder you were thinking of? He's to thank for a large amount of modding development in the last 15+ years.

[original post updated]

From what I understand(?), the broken threads could be a mixture of expired image hosting links and phpBB migration rendering some text formatting incompatible.

From what I remember (I was a member of MS.com from 2007 until the end), it became progressively quieter until the 2009-2010 Mafia II bump, then would go offline several times over the next 8 years thanks to the server host. In 2010, MS.net was started in to fill the void. Riddian/Deusiah was largely away with IRL stuff and the site, despite returning in 2013, went down again towards the end of the 2010s. As Joshua explained via MS.net's Facebook, MS.com's backups have been lost for good, and that's likely the end of that site.

All that being the case, it's bizarre that MS.com and MS.net was considered a rivalry back in the day!

Great to see the old MM site back up!

Good to see you again.  As I am now semi retired I now have more time on my hands and I am getting back into modding myself

I always look forward to seeing your content, it is an inspiration to me

One of your first videos inspired me to do my own, It was an an introduction of Mafiosa I think, the one where the guy drops the baseball bat, that was so classic

So I may join you in posting updates  on the Old Capoletti Mod now that I have it out of moth balls. If I can keep on task and not blow up

Look forward to seeing your work

Matteo(AKA Craig, as you are wont to point out  )

I do remember, when I wasn't busy doxxing you with your first name, that we had quite the symbiotic relationship when it came to creative inspiration. Your Frisco/Little Italy sections were-a just-a mwuah.
Anyway, I'm surprised to see you again, but as with Muggy it's a pleasant surprise - bentornato, caro amico.

Mod scraps: 10 hours' work for one custom animation that isn't even completely finished. Sigh.

Welcome back! I think I remember you just being 'lassiter' before? Nostalgia overload from this site, at the moment  

Thanks, Daffy! I wonder if it's worth shooting Joshua a PM, see if he can upload your treasure trove.
Agreed, many good memories made on MS.com.

The Mafioso Mod

Welcome to a rebuilt thread for a modification I started back in 2011 (much dev still remains).
Some missions are crossing the finish line, while others are still on the starting block. As such, everything you see here is subject to change.
My hope with this thread is to post less significant updates/behind-the-scenes stuff, alongside occasional larger updates. A scrapbook, of sorts.

N.B. I go through periods of being able to work on the mod, and those where I can't. Please don't hold your breath.

Thanks for your interest.

*11-year bump!*

It's a long shot, but would anyone happen to have a copy of this mod lying around somewhere? If not, I'll try contacting Ruby directly.

Many thanks, either way!

Looking very nice, hope to see some missions, too.

No worries John, I'll try somewhere else. Thanks anyway!

1.0 I think, chaps.

Merry Christmas to all.

Your first step on the road to recovery, bonne chance CP!
