My evil eyes burn you to a frazzled crisp! Mwa ha ha ha, mwah ha ha! Ahem. Still haven't rented it yet, waaaaay to busy at the moment!

So have you found that SofF II runs rubbish too? I have a 1.3ghz with 128mb sdram and it runs awful even on the lowest graphics settings. Its smooth, but looks absolutely awful, like half the textures are missing. Delta Force 1 looks better than this!!!

Okay okay, i was only playing in a small galaxy and i still had other fleets protecting planets, but you see my point.

Hmmm, so we're not really going to get a decent model editor unless JediGreg makes one for us in Reb 2

I think it's quite relevant, we're talking about model editing, and we're in the model editor forum.

Oh yes, it'll be fun, lots and lots of fun!!!

2000? do you mean 2002 or 2003? And, not that i have anything against GCN or XBox, but it's better on pc because you can do more with it in terms of mods and new maps.

Or you coulkd base the price in terms of maintenance points and raw materials on the number of weapons, shield recharge, sublight speed etc etc. But surely we should be able to edit the price, just like any of the existing ship cards?

The hyperspace thing is not that simple. You might know what's changed in the galaxy while your fleet is in hyperspace, but they don't. According to Star Wars Science, a ship in hyperspace cannot be contacted. Therefore you shouldn't really be able to contact your fleet to drop them out of hyperspace. It could be part of the difficulty options though.

On the research thing we decided that upgrades would be very difficult especially if you want to stay true to the star wars theme. However you could have a specforces character that you post to a ship. Call him an engineer and he would increase the sublight speed. Build a shield specialist or a hyperspace technician etc etc.

Sounds good to me. Wouldn,t we have to design specific maps for every time though? It would be quite hard to get missions specific to that moment in gameplay.

Well, my Supremacy and Windows ME get on fine. Never had any problems with it. I play it loads and its only crashed twice i think, and that was when i had other programs running in the background and i was alt-tabbing a lot.

Very, very dstrange, i have no idea i'm afraid.

There's no denying it can be fun. Having an SSD at every planet in your system can be fun, and if you give the resources to both teams you can have some truly huge battles, 100 SSD's vs 100 Bulwarks. However, be aware that when you go over 100 ships in a fleet it does slow down the game an awful lot when your fleet arrives in system for a battle. That said, if your careful, without changing any resources you can build a huge fleet anyway. The biggest that i can remember was 130 Corellian Corvettes. Just for fun!

What about buying it? Or is it not available for public use?

Pucho777: You've got me there, i should have thought of that. What about upgrades for troops though? Say being able to research troop upgrades, like translators for wookie regiments that lets them act as superiors to other regiments. Then if you had a wookie reg and three sullustan reg's it would make the sullustans more effective. Something along those lines. Or researching officer school which would automaticall promote one of the troops in a reg to be in command and improove the efficiency of the reg. Or x-wings. There's the old X-wing, the XJ-wing and the XJ3-wing that i can think of immediately. I know that the tiomeline doesn't exactly cater for it, but my games often last for 10,000 days, which would easily fit the timeline.

You don't even need to change threepios name as its just a standard designation common to his model, all you need to do is change his voice. You could even have him saying that he is honoured to work with the man who once worked with his famous counterpart. They were manufactured at the same plant don't you know etc etc...

It's only annoying if it matters that the enemy knows that you're weak!!! If you're strong make sure he can complete an espionage mission so that you can dishearten him!!!

Evaders, do you know when the skins will be up and running?

And yes i am a hitchhiker!!! They rule!

That is a superb quote.

Okay so is there a link to anywhere that i can get it from?

But where can i get a copy of exeScope?

Ok, i've now read the FAQ's. So, with the factions you can control a territory, so in theory you could control an entire planet as you will be able to elct tleaders. Unfortunately no AT-AT's by the look of things, at least not yet. It might be in one of the mods. And i will be able to set up a shop exclusively for SWRebellion members, but you'll have to let me know so that i can put you on the list, but we'll worry about that nearer the time. For now it looks like a very, very, very good game.

So once we get the game from JediGreg we'll just get on and mod it. Perhaps we should have an option to play as more than just the Empire of the Rebellion, but as the Hapans Sii-Ruuvi or Chiss etc.
