Recommended Posts

Does anyone know of a site I can download the Supremacy/Rebellion manual from so I can print it out. :?:

 

My original is begining to fall apart and I really want to save it for posterity :cry:

 

Any help will be appreciated

You have failed me for the last time.

I also have that large pdf version, but if you can shrink it, I think that'd be best for our young collegue 8)

i have it

 

however, it is in PDF format and is 53 MB.

 

I tell you what. if no-one comes hither to offer I will shrink the manual size and post it on my website.

 

good?

 

Could you use winzip to shrink it? I'd love to have a copy.

 

Where is your website??

 

Thanks for your help :wink:

Sorry to bump this, but I think posting an online manual is a great idea. There is a recent surge of interest in old skool SW stuff...fans-potential players...that I've talked to, who's going back to try out games like Yoda Stories, Rebel Assult, JKI, Dark Forces, X-Wing alliance, and you know. Old school stuff. But they're all afraid to buy SWR and give it a go because they've all read the reviews on window shuffling or whatnot.

 

SS Officer, Imperator2, and whoever else, I think you should post the 50 or 20 mb pdf file, or zip up the html conversion for download somewhere (perhaps on SWR.com, but bandwidth probs...). The manual, despite what we might feel, do a pretty good job of being a manual. An html formatted one is easily accessible and can help newbies (who's inherited a 5th-hand used CD) understand the game.

Well, create an HTML page with the table of contents, then create each separate page and make sure to have "Next/Previous/Table of Contents" links there. I suggest having several pages which consist of "big" sections and using the table of contents to take you directly to an anchor (#something).

Just getting an update on how the manual htmls are coming along. I'm just asking, because there are people with pdf manuals, in case it's too much trouble to convert them into html and then post it to the site. For instance, I have the ~50 meg file as well as the one that was split into 4 parts (although that one is in French. hence, useless for our current purpose).

The bare minimum, in which I took only the text parts of the html conversion, comes out to be ~250k in rich-text format if all formatting is preserved.

 

The size for the total html conversion varies wildly depending on formatting and how pretty I make it look initially. From this I will say that I am not the best person to submit the manual.
