Ever think of hiring more people? With or without pay there are probably willing recipients who are fluent in game code/designing, just a thought to make the development go faster....
You will always find people who are interested to help, with or without money. There is always new people fresh out of school who just wants to make new stuff for their portfolios for example. Ask them for your help. Got a model you want created, then ask for it. I will bet you 100 bucks that someone in your community would do it without any questions asked. Excellent! That wasn't so hard was it? Sorry for being a "smart-ass", but I can't help it.
oophus, really dude. Let's not start this again. If I were the developers, and I were getting talked to like that... I would ban your ass from the site, and your IP adress as well, we don't need smarties like you bossing the devs around. They release updates on their time, not yours. If you were paying them to do it, that would be different. . . .
People are already doing that. Just look in the unofficial showroom. And I think that most of the development right now is programming related. I know the team is working on lots of models, but I don't think that is the "bottleneck" at the moment. Not to mention, having multiple people contribute models to the game won't make for a very polished release. I mean, I know I'm not the only one that primarily uses gabester's vehicles in RoR. It's easy to see a difference in quality among all the vehicles in both the content and high quality packs for RoR.
In my case, I do not even have to worry because my update.exe refuses to download the updates with "Cannot connect to server"
