Being at a uni, you start thinking in semesters, which tend to have an open end in their number ....

That poor tree

She's one of the girlfriends. Remember at the end where they put on their presents ? drooling....

Well that wish of stirring up a Jihad will remain .... wishful thinking on Saddam's part. Remeber Bin Laden also called every Muslim to a Jihad against the US and all their allies. Geez, were we busy fighting that holy war now, weren't we ? That's just the thing with tyrants, they try to use religion as a means to an end. Hmmm, actually that relates to Dune as well, also to the use of the dark side (I'm just reading Darth Maul: Shadow hunter again) Also, I'd drive around more with my car as well, if the gas would only cost a fraction of what it does in Germany and if I had the time

Thinking of the 'final battle' event, Thrawn will not die in the TC. He'll be captured like C'Baoth, but we had no problems in the original Rebellion with Vader and Palpatine being captured, so I guess that'll work

Okay, one model at a time: -First you look up the number of the model, that you want to replace in my tutorial. For instance the ATRN is 2580, that would be the close-up model. 2581 & 2582 would be the medium and the far model. -Now expand for instance the 2580 entry, until you see the '1033'. Right-click on this and select 'Replace Resource'. -After opening the extracted .x model with it, you fill in these values in the dialog : 301, 2580, 1033. Then hit 'replace' and the close-up model is replaced. Do this for the 2581 & 2582 entries as well and you're done with this model. Of course you'd have to substitute the 2580 in the values with 2581 and later 2582, respectively. 301 and 1033 will always be the same, since it's always a model (301) and the language (1033) will be the same as well. -Now, if you want to look at the model for instance in RebEd save the tactical.dll with resource hacker and close that program Then you can open up RebEd and view the model. If you still have resource hacker open, then your tactical.dll can become corrupted and you'd have to get a 'fresh' one from your cd. Better now ?

Everytime I put on the green mask ... Also when I first saw Jennifer Garner in Alias I kept thinking of 'Dude, where's my car ?' and didn't quite know why until I saw the credits again.

Huh ? Is it about Herbert's book ? You really mean a movie ?

They forgot to include Lak and Dice in that pic

Jahled, maybe it works, if you go back, edit your first post and check the 'disable Smilies in this post' box.

Well, I don't know how to extract the poses from XWing, except making many screenshots and TK wanted to ask Gank about what he did with the Imp GUI. I might also have an ace still up my sleeve, but I don't know if that old friend can/will be able to help me.

Yeah, but what's on my neck ? -Sweet ! Ok, that's sweet, but what's on mine ? -Dude !! What's on mine ? -Sweeeeeeet !!! ..... I love this movie. I already know some of these from desktopstarships.com, but there are definatly new and good ones there as well. From a first cursory view I suggest: -Rebel Fighters assault the Death Star -Cloud City -X-wings blast an Imperial facility into a fireball -The Rebel Fleet Gathers or Sunrise over Mon Calimari -Armada! -Assault on Mon Calamari from the main page. Good work Jahled, you shall be named in the credits movie

*cough* I'm baaack *cough* Well as some of you might've already deducted from the recent boom in the stock-market exchange for handkerchiefs, I had a flu again. Or maybe I just didn't get rid of that last one three weeks ago Well, but as I sat in the waiting room of my doc I read the latest issue of a respectable news mag, I saw that some of Saddam's most loyal toops were called Fedajin or so. Well, I still think, that these will be neither as effective or as loyal as Muaddib's Fedaykin But when I last read the first Dune book on my vacation in Tunesia I found various parallels to the language there. For example market was called suk in Dune and souk in Tunesia. Herbert must've studied this region extensively when he wrote these books, cause he captured so much of it. So I guess it relates more to the language and culture, than the actual strings of fate. Btw, Tk I think oil is missing the awareness-enhancing effects of spice, or did you find some last supply of leaded gas ?

I just added the chimes sound from Windows to my tactical.dll under a new entry just for testing this. Generally it boils down to this, when you use Resource Hacker: If it lets you type in the type of a resource, then you can simply use the name of its 'folder'. So I used WAVE as type. Language has so far always been 1033 for everyone here. Seems like we all use the US version, or the UK one (named Supremacy there). Scathane, well I did mention it at least in the readme of the plugin

Hmmm..... it can't be an installation prob with Resource Hacker, cause you don't have to install it and if your pc behaves normally during the rest of time you use it and no unexplained crashes during games or other programs are happening, then I don't know what else it can be. Sorry. Anyone else with things I missed ?

'Hehehe Park alley's mine and you're sure to land on it, my Lord.' God rolled his dice and moved his figure on the game board accordingly. 'Negative eight ? Can I see these dice for a minute ? What do you mean, I should get my own ? Ok, you're making the rules..., but I think I never heard of such dice' God just kept one of his patient looks on Mask as the evening grew longer...

Yup, I'm younger (spelling's correct) Darn, I should've thought of 'Dude, looks like a lady' earlier, when we were still writing the stories about Vader's new fashion

What I meant was, that all these ideas are from books, games, ... and if you drew the line after the movies these great ideas, that helped to keep the Star Wars universe alive so long wouldn't be in it. Btw, I'm also at the beginning of the Yuuzhan Vong books (finished Agents 1 of chaos a while ago) and from what I grasp, the first Vong scouts entered this area of space in the time of the Old Republic.

But they are both already Cookietroopers, so I guess Trejiuvanat should qualify

Trejiuvanat, they should be all here : http://www.guerrestellari.net/bobafonts/select.html Scathane, I decyphered it yesterday evening. It reminded me of the location in TK's profile

Well I think the Bulwark, Dauntless, Liberator, CC-7700, CC-9600, ... were just made up for Rebellion. The CC-7700 was later used in a book by Bel Iblis against Daala, so it has been officially sanctioned, I guess. But the whole idea about the being made up has a flaw: Where exactly do we draw the line ? If we draw it after the movies, then there'll be no Thrawn, no Yuuzhan Vong, no Jedi Academy, ... well, you get my point. So, my view is this: these officially sanctioned ideas are 'real' in the StarWars universe. Although I would've liked to have a Dauntless or Bulwark mentioned in the books. The way its there, you could think the whole Alliance/NR fleet consists of MonCal ships, frigates, corvettes and gunboats. A bit more diversity would benefit the whole story, I think. It's a big universe after all, so there is likely to be a vast number of different ships as well, although the Empire kept surpressing all the aliens.

Media Player 9 ? Is that the one shipped with XP, or is there yet another update that doesn't really do anything new ? No, I meant installing the codec, the you can view these files easily through the media player. I never much liked that player they included in DivX 4.12 (The playa, I think was its name).

And we saw it was good

Ask JediAlex, he came up with that rumor in the first place

Dunno either, maybe these machines didn't have the right DivX codec installed, or none at all This movie uses DivX 4, I watched it with DivX 5 without any problems. Do you have these installed ?
