Har har har!!!
I somewhere read, that the name Darth Vader spawned from dark father. In German 'father' is written 'Vater', what's it written in Dutch, Scath ?

Tractor beam
Hi Bill (your last name isn't F.Gates, right ?). Your ships use this automatically. Just get some ships with tractors close to an enemy ship and you'll see that blue aura around it. You'll notice, that the enemy ship is also stuck from that point (until of course, it blast the ship with the tractors away )

Hey, this almost looks like the last academy mission of TopGun. When you are about to land your radar officer proposes soaring over the tower, which I did .... upside down, afterburners at full

How long was your longest Rebellion game?
One was more than 10,000 days. I always play with a large galaxy and usually only stop, after every planet is under my control It just looks cool, if every system has your colors

Episode II Death Star Reference...
I dunno either. He's sort of a mix between Steve Urkel and an outer space Jamaican

Episode III Plot theories
You can read the evidence in the first book of the Jedi Padawan series, that Obi Wan was trained by Yoda, before he was Qui-Gon's appentice. I've only bought the first three books of the series, cause I was somehow disappointed, that the books had about half the pages of a regular book, but the full price. But the story, who Obi Wan became Qui-Gon's Padawan (1st book) is not bad and if you got the time, give it a try.

How do I mess with Bitmaps and name lengths?
Hi, my site is currently offline, cause my former provider had the mysterious habit of kicking my site every few months for no reason It will be up again shortly. The site you found is that of one of our oldest members here at SWR.com : UntimelyDemise. Although he's been absent in the recent time. Btw, it's alright if they had no bananas, it will work without them. Maybe not as smooth, but it'll work

A requestr for permission to use artwork.
-AT-ST, the background is the landing platform on Endor from ROTJ, but I don't recognize the source of the AT-ST. -Biker scouts, could be the SWMA model at various angles. The AT-PT I recognize from another picture, but it's the background I don't know. -shield gen, dunno. -Tie Adv, looks like an SWMA model to me. sorry that I can't help you more.

Well, since it's in the news every now and then, I don't think it's forbidden. But maybe some of the younger folks could think, that we would somehow advertise using this stuff, well in theory. So, if you've ever think about using this, consider the following: I was on a LAN last year, where there was one guy, who's regularly smoking ... youguesswhat ... and he was the slowest in every Deathmatch we played Just something to think about

Could we do this again ? I think I had my eyes closed

HELP WITH MULTIPLAYER
*sigh* ,or better: yawn. Why don't we discuss other things, than stupid ideas that utterly failed, cause they only served to distract the people, rather than really serving any purpose at all. Btw, I think that was socialism, not communism.

Katanna Fleet (Dark Force)
The Fonz ? Hehe, now I can almost imagine your age Scath Nah, I'd love to see these 'old' shows again as well. They could replace all these noninformative talk shows at lunchtime (Germany). I'd rather hear Mr. Ed say 'Ohhh, Wilbur' for the thousandth time, than listen to another round of 'you should do that, because I said so', while I'm switching the channels

IP address
If you use a dial-up service, your online-IP will change everytime, that you connect, though. The fastest way to find it, would be to open a Dos-Box and type ipconfig there. You'll get two IPs and the subnet mask. One IP, I think it's the second, will be the one that you've set for your network card (if you have one and if you've set a fixed IP for that, of course) and the one above is the one, that identifies your PC in the internet for the time, that you're logged in. So that's the IP, that your buddy needs to have to connect to your pc.

Building shipyards
Well google.de found me this (I'm sure google.com would've found it as well ) : http://www.thearnoldfans.com/movies/t3/info.htm click on 'cast and crew' .... there she is.

Building shipyards
I wonder what model no. Arnie will fight in T3, possibly the T1200 I read somewhere, that he'll have to fight a female Terminator this time (a.k.a. : M.i.l. ), although I can't say that this info is spoiler-proof.

Traitors
fdisk /mbr should repair the bootsector on your hdd. The last time I had to try this it didn't work for me, though. If you have physical errors on your hdd, in other words bad sectors, then your OS won't install because of these, IIRC. Although flagging them with scandisk should allow you install. But either way you should better get a new hdd, cause these errors have the habit of spreading over the time and they might get to some important data sooner or later

Changing MUSIC files
This wouldn't be a problem, if Hastings would finally send me his patch he modified for me to change the movies and music in the TC. Then you can put whatever music and movies you like on your hdd and it'll play these instead of the original ones. -Hastings, if you read this: I'm talking about the modifications I asked of you in that last email. So far I exchanged the music in the cockpit with the metal-version of the Imperial march from Force Commander. A bummer, that this one could not be used in the TC.

Maybe I'm just an idiot...
Yeah, that's what I meant: first you sent us Rudi Carrell and now you want to send troops as well. I sure hope Beatrix is too friendly for that

What's happened while I've been gone?

But in these bars you could order a joint or make your own and smoke it ? So are these declared "neutral territory" ?

Post 1000 by the MASK: -wasn't it enough, that you've already tortured us with Rudi Carrell ?

Definition of .dll
A broader definition would be, that the dll contains resources. These resources can contain a lot of things (dialogs, music, pics, drivers),... although I've never seen a driver dll with other resources in it. You can try other dlls, than just those of Rebellion for finding these kinds of resources as well, you'll sometimes be surprised what you'll find.
