Heya guys, just visiting between learning sessions This sounds great ! Oh, and welcome to the wonderful world of Rebellion editing, smonica

I also think it should be from BlasTech. I can look into the 'behind the magic' cds, maybe there's some description.

Hmmm size matters not...

Don't forget the scorpions, uaaah Bounce you must

Evaders, the good thing is, that Saddam wouldn't dare attack Israel with nukes. He bragged about it in the Gulf War, but he knew as well as everyone else, that his missiles wouldn't have hit a stone before he had more incoming than he had just launched. That's just like the situation at the end of 'Wargames' now, isn't it ? Let's hope the situation at North Korea doesn't end like the last Bond movie ,btw. Rogue13 is missing for some time now... oh oh

Err, and the URL for your page was what again ? It's been some time

Sure, through a slight detour Go to Darksaber's XWing station: http://www.darksaber.freeserve.co.uk/fileopted.htm and dowload the opt-3ds tool (about at the middle of the page). With that you can convert them to 3ds (big surprise, I know) and with a little sizing and texturing it'll work in Rebellion. Be sure to have the author's permission, if it's not a ship directly from XWA and if you want to give these ships to others ! I've asked some and there are people that'll say no and others that won't mind Also, if it's not your model, give the original author credit for their hard work anyway. It's the least you can do

Hmm ... reflecting ... "Dooku with a speeder, flanked by two other ships..." ah, these. Gotta look at them on the DVD again, but didn't they look the same as the ship, that Dooku escapes with ? I'm a bit confused, I just wrote exam no. 4 of 12 (logic), the rest ( 8 ) will start in about 3 weeks, oh joy ...

You said it brother Btw, Tim was played by Tim Allen and Al by Richard Karn. Maybe you know Tim Allen from some movies, like Galaxy Quest, Santa Clause, ... Oh yeah, and : more power, hrr hrr hrrr

Look up the apropriate threads, that include the word 'TC'. It's basically about the total conversion we're making. It's set in the Thrawn era and it'll be a true Total Conversion, with new shipmodels, new encyclopedia entries, cards, sounds, movies, ... well, everything In creating cards, it helps a lot if you know how to use a graphics program and what the different values mean to the game and how they affect the unit or character. Here's a brief tutorial on creating cards, that should answer most of your questions: http://www.beqiri.biz/lima-city/dkelley/rebellion/updated_rebed_help.zip (If the link should not work, click http://kickme.to/woodsboro/ then inside it the Game Select button, quick-selection bar -> Rebellion and the link to the updated RebEd helpfile there).

Yeah, I tried that once, but I thought maybe someone knew of a minimum number of ships, that had to be there. ADarkJedi44: what Geonosian fighters do you mean ? These flying reptiles ? They could only count as atmospheric fighters

I don't think so, Tim The game seems to take the description of the shipclass from the dlls and simply adds a number to that. I don't think that could be changed, sorry.

Hey, I think I found that old guide you mean. It's an updated version of Revolution's RebEd help file. I put it on my site (http://kickme.to/woodsboro/) , check the entry 'Units, how to' there's the whole process.

Help is on its way I made a little example, that should help you. Screenshot here: http://home.graffiti.net/d_kelley/Eat_at_Jahleds.jpg (didn't know, that you had a restaurant at Ghorman ) The complete example with a picture, that has the right color palette and that you can use as a template to simply draw over and the converted .bin that you can replace the original with. http://home.graffiti.net/d_kelley/Eat_at_Jahleds.zip How's the food there, btw ?

Yup, it's based on the NJO map. I have a little Flash program with that map that I'll publish when I found it again Question is, do we really want to use that map ? It's pretty far from the Rebellion map, that we all are so used to.

fishnet stockings Good one Just what I need after that first exam today. But even if Holdan sits in a lonely cave in Australia, she won't be alone for long. Evidentially, Croc Hunter Steve Irwin will draw her out on a leg and start guessing what species he found this time

Did you run the program ? It's pretty self-explaining. I think option 3 is for converting BMP-BIN. If your starfield has the right dimensions an color palette, that should be it.

The other one from the site with your speederhopper was hilarious as well. Both hopping, 'Strike me down' 'I'm trying, I'm trying'

One TC at a time I did plan for a EP1/EP2 period TC, even before Igor had the idea for the Reloaded TC. There are some good models already available, as well as pics for characters, troops and fighters. The only problem I've found so far is, that there are not enough types of units. Ships, for instance : the Republic cruiser, the Nubian, Dreadnought, VSD, ISD (late), , the Trade Federation ships, but we have over 30 shiptypes and I don't know, if the engine will allow using less. Fighters could also be a problem: Z95, Y-Wing, Jedi Starfighter Vs. 2 kinds of Trade Federation fighters and somewhere I've seen a Republic Tie, although I don't know if that one's canon.

Does anyone have a pic of that recon XWing with its pod trailing ? If not, we could draw one

Hmm nothing on the German Ebay, but at ebay.com : http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3400079712&category=182 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3400196582&category=182 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3400333815&category=182 and one on the Austrian Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.at/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2304898657&category=14344 I do see it occasionally in bigger stores, like Media Market, or on exhibitions on a variance of prices. The video rental store close to my university still has it with the original box. Btw, you sent us the pages with the quick keys-reference in the semi-old forum. But seeing those lately I remebered, that two of the three pages were the same. Like page 66 being 65 again, remeber ?

Tsunami, yep I also read that about the lightly armed issue, but if we'd have a prototype as blueprint for a new shipclass (the Home One is its own class, I've read that too often from reliable sources), these blueprints could be optimized, don't you think

Or, if they are busy with the Reloaded TC Nah, he's alright, so if you have any questions you can ask him and expect good answers.

Sssssomebody stop me Now how're you gonna get outa this one But it seems Holdan has really left. I haven't seen any post from her in months.

Since the Mc80 Home One is supposed to be 3.8 km, instead of the normal 1.2 km, didn't we discuss earlier, if we wanted to replace the Bulwark with it ? When I'm done with the first 4 exams (about Feb, 10th) I can hopefully release a revised Home One, that's not from XWA and has about 1/11th of the other model's polycount. thanks to a very friendly XWA Opt designer
