Rest in peace friend. While I only knew you from these forums, you were still a good mate and will be sorely missed. To Grand Moff Conway, may he rule his Empire in heaven. He will be missed by all.

Albino Kangaroo Says Hi

Budious' fix - read the entire first post This should help - you might have to read through the entire thread. But, the fix is in Bud's first post.

News article about zee Germans and Scientology...nothing really new Welcome back Bud Sounds like you had an alright time .. wherever you went (we know it wasn't a real Ewok village, otherwise you'd have razed it to the ground )

Those things are awesome! I love the ears, reminds me of a bilby...sorta

That'd make 3 votes for the frozen ninja

That modular idea for your K-Wing is rather interesting Def! Not to nerd it up too much, but if it's got the 6 turbolasers ... won't it need a big 'ol power unit? As for the original K-Wing, I kinda got the same idea that BS had from reading the ...ah, what trilogy was it in? Anyway, it seemed rather lack luster with the exception of firepower, but the more recent version I rather like. She may be a big fella, but the cannon version (I really need to remember names of books better ... something like essential spaceships and it had pictures?) has it capable of the same speeds as an X-Wing without its "after burn" mode. It's also got it's own point defence weapons - something it didn't have in the novels. I'm a bit iffy on the hard points under the wings/s-foils. The bad: Not Star Wars! Every other cannon fighter had warheads internal .. at least that I know of Pros: Leads to the fact that there's a lot more in the SW than proton torpedoes and concussion missiles ... which you'd think is all they have And of course, making it a munchy ship killer. My biggest complaint about it: SW novels just dropped it .. I've hardly read every book. But I've read most of th NJO and there's no mention, which is a shame. But, then again, the NJO books were pretty bad for "tech" continuity in the hopes to get more fans. Hell, there were no new ships etc. that were introduced in novels which bugs the crap out of me. But, that's another rant. Speaking of another rant though - here's my game spec monster guy done. http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/6459/monstergame05dn1.th.jpghttp://img505.imageshack.us/img505/8590/monstergame01mh0.th.jpghttp://img444.imageshack.us/img444/8938/monstergame08yz7.th.jpg http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/3323/monstergame02ow7.th.jpghttp://img444.imageshack.us/img444/8895/monstergame03cr4.th.jpghttp://img444.imageshack.us/img444/3816/monstergame07fe3.th.jpg http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/4283/monstergame06mf9.th.jpghttp://img444.imageshack.us/img444/2039/monstergame09zp8.th.jpghttp://img444.imageshack.us/img444/7610/monstergame04ln5.th.jpg

Welcome to the forums mate Enjoy yourself

keep watching until about the minute mark until they change dance. Probably not worth it, but meh

I've always liked the k-wing since reading about it, and then seeing it - cool design. Here's work on my monster thingy, gaming it up - so the low poly version. Current count (and technically the final count) 1634 tris. Texture maps will be 512x512, but currently the difuse map is 1024x1024 with the rest at the wanted res (normal and specular). More to come, hopefully I'll fix the maps up soon enough to have the skull on the same texture kinda forgot that part when setting things up. Anywho, left has no normal map - right has the normal map. http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/5629/rendertestnonormalnc8.th.jpghttp://img403.imageshack.us/img403/2313/rendertestff6.th.jpg If you're wondering what the weird colour is on the legs, that's the actual normal map as a difuse texture. Normal maps store the normal lighting info as an rgb map.

The animation is pretty damn good in that! Now randomness of three 1. I think I can just get this to fit in my car 2. Men be warned ... OUCH 3. Two unique watches

Don't let beauty blind you it's only skin deep - what's under the surface is what matters. Like Dues Ex 1 .. of which in the future there'll be a 3rd. Oh, an bioshock - pretty and fun

It does look and play awesomely. They guys who worked on the control, graphics, feel and gameplay did a great job. The guys who created the story line ... well, they did a less than brilliant job. From reviews and from people I know who've played - all say the biggest let down is the repetitiveness of the title Such a shame. Still, most seem to enjoy it nevertheless

*sits in front of the TV waiting* I hope it won't be too long until they show it here In all seriousness, I just hope they do show it in Australia

I knew it! There's a McDonalds everywhere! Brilliant J

That time of year alright! Nice new avatars Eagle and Rob! @Def: What's your avatar of anywho? I like the look of that robot guy

That was great LLF! I couldn't stop laughing!

Maybe we should take this talk to another thread? I think we can all agree that the suggested punishment, the given punishment and even the "crime" are over the top and a recent discussion with friends leads me to believe it's nothing more than racism fuelling this countries outburst. We should continue this discussion here Now, back to art stuff original sketch http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/1410/monsterconceptzh2.th.jpg http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/8643/monsterprocess08js1.th.jpghttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/5196/monsterprocess07bbc9.th.jpg http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/4894/monsterprocess06bup0.th.jpghttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/5634/monsterprocess05biv8.th.jpg http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/3402/monsterprocess04bai8.th.jpghttp://img507.imageshack.us/img507/9499/monsterprocess03buc4.th.jpg http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/8877/monsterprocess02yn2.th.jpghttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/8504/monsterprocess02bzk8.th.jpg

Sad and wrong And, now my best to retell a story I was today. A friend of a friend's parents, brother ... maybe sister (I wasn't paying much attention at this part of the story ) ... well, it's kinda irrelevant really. A guy and girl living together in their own house a few weeks ago had to take their pet snake to the vet. Now my friend knows this, because he use to go to the house a lot. The snake was treated more like a dog, I guess, than a snake. It would slither around the house by itself and curl up on the bed at night. It was friendly and this guy never minded the snake even though this is a really big snake. The couple had it for over a year and never had problems. Anyway, back to the story. The guy and girl took the snake to the vet because it hadn't been eating for quiet a while and they were getting worried. The vet checked out the snake, ran some test and found nothing wrong - so in the end he just told them to bring it back if it hadn't started eating within a week. The week goes by and the pair are back with the snake still not eating. Again, the vet runs his tests with no clear answer. So he asks them if there's been anything different, if anything had changed? The guy responds with nothing had changed except it had stopped eating. The lady said the same, then added that a while ago she'd woken up during the night and noticed that the snake was lying perfectly straight, parallel with the bed and in between herself and the guy. The vet looked at them with a stark face and simply said, We've got to put down your snake. What? They replied obviously shocked. We've got to put the snake down. Why? You don't want to know. Why!? Really, you don't want to know. The bloke at that stage got a bit pissed off and raised his voice wanting to know why he wanted to kill his pet snake of over a year. Finally the vet responds - because it was sizing you up. It was going to eat you. My mate who use to go to the house is still freaked out and wont go back.

Thanks all Now for something interesting - like sliding rocks p.s. Def: I've been working on your ship every now and again - I think I'm going to restart it from scratch though, the way I've done it just screws up too much when smoothed.
