ElvisMiggell Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Okay, are we going to make entirely new cards, or are we going to use existing ones? Personally i would foavour new ones. We can decide which ships are going to be used in the mod, and then start to gather resources to make some really good looking cards. Also are we going to have individual ships like the Errant Venture? Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine...

Guest JediIgor Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Well, we will try to replace all the cards... as much as we can. The cards shouldn't be a problem, replacing the models on the other hand, might be a little harder. I moved this to "Cards - Other" btw, since you are referring to all cards in general (not just ships). As for your question about individual ships, it's probably unlikely (because we can't control the # of them throughout the game, can we?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted November 5, 2002 Author Share Posted November 5, 2002 Well, unless it were akin to a character card, that either appeared at a predefined moment in the game, appeared through recruitment, or was there right from the start, but isn't an option to build it.Btw, what, if i'm allowed to know, is going on in the 'Top Secret' forum?

SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted November 5, 2002 SWR Staff - Executive Share Posted November 5, 2002 I would say new cards. Not new images necessarily, but we want this to be perfect. Thus, all the cards should be perfect and work in 256 color. Most of the cards I've seen aren't converted right, aren't cut out right, have errors in spelling, etc. Evaders99http://swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Webmasterhttp://swrebellion.com/images/banners/swcicuserbar.png Administrator Fighting is terrible, but not as terrible as losing the will to fight.- SW:Rebellion Network - Evaders Squadron Coding -The cake is a lie.

Most of the cards I've seen aren't converted right, aren't cut out right, have errors in spelling, etc. I have this perfect program which converts 24-bit BMPs (or whatever format it is you use) to 8-bit BMPs (256 colors) such as you barely notice any color losses. The name of it is "BmptoGifPro" and I use it whenever I make cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted November 6, 2002 SWR Staff - Executive Share Posted November 6, 2002 Well I use PSP - Paint Shop Pro, and it does a fairly good job.

Guest JediIgor Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 Does it convert to 8-bit? In that case, it's just as well... Mine for example, (Photoshop) for some reason won't let me convert to 8-bit. So I just use BmpToGifPro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted November 6, 2002 Author Share Posted November 6, 2002 Hmmm, do you want the Official Star Wars Encyclopaedia references, then we can just edit them down, or will the cards be made bigger to contain more information?

Guest JediIgor Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 Canucks.. hehe... Yeah, sure, if we can make the encyclopedia entries for all the characters longer somehow (can we do this, the_mask?), then we could have a long entry for the personnel. IMHO though we should keep it down to roughly 3 paragraphs. Any more, and the game will be spent reading the Encyclopedia instead of playing the actual game.

ElvisMiggell Posted November 6, 2002 Author Share Posted November 6, 2002 Pity we can't have two. A quick reference, and then something a little longer. Elvismiggell.

the_mask Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 Canucks ? What's that ? If you mean spec-forces or troops with personnel, then yeah, we can It would also work with the capital ships and fighters, but back then I just was bored not being able to write the long names for the characters. Given some time I could make a 2.0 cardspace update with the space for every entry being longer. Why don't we make a compromise, if we're gonna have more space anyway ? First a short description with the stats and then a encyclopedia entry. http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venix Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 We have to be careful not to use too much RSWU information for the characters..

Guest JediIgor Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 Why not? The rebels have to take over Coruscant, capture the Emperor & Darth Vader to win. That is exactly what is done in 9 ABY; Coruscant is captured, and the Emperor & DV are dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted November 8, 2002 Author Share Posted November 8, 2002 That's more or less what i meant, everything that will happen in the mod will be opposite to what happened in the first game. I don't think Greg's going to script anything, so it's up to us to decide what we want, and then make sure we haven't contradicted ourselves in the cards. i.e saying Luke's been to train with Joruus when in the game he hasn't yet.

Elfboy Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 Will we be able to use the same cards that we use in rebellion? If not will there be a way to create and inport our own?

TK421 Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 You mean new Imp en NR backgrounds? I bet Venix (or Igor) can fix us some of these.. we could do a poll for this! Z'anthr saves the world. Sorry about the mess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mask Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 If you like those I made for my cards (my page) you can have those.
