  1. Not since about 2002 when we changed the website system. Yes there have been some header changes, some cosmetic changes, but nothing like a new design to keep things interesting
  2. Hmm I don't see it being that extreme. There's a little more blue, but nothing fancy. The header uses more blue - the borders were blue anyway. Little else was changed except the left menu. All the content areas still remain the same.
  3. I'm accepting any submissions for artwork
  4. Hehe http://www.swrebellion.com
  5. Then perhaps someone wants to help these guys, put it on the wiki!
  6. Quake 2 wasn't a true sequel to Quake, it had a different setting and design. However Quake 4 picks up from Quake 2... and Quake 4 was a darn fun game!
  7. You have to consider that Natalie Portman was much better known than Kiera. Kiera got the attention really due to Star Wars, as she looked like Portman. Dooku was much better developed in the novels. I think Christopher Lee did a great job, for the limited role he was on screen.
  8. It was originally just Command and Conquer, but it was given the name Tiberian Dawn to distinguish itself from the Red Alert series.

    Performance

    It is possible to do 8800 in SLI.. http://www.techreport.com/onearticle.x/11686
  10. Curious as to the source of all those names
  11. I assume he means http://www.moddb.com But why put it on another site when we can put it here! Esp since it matters to the Rebellion players here. Not to mention that Rebellion isn't even a game listed on Moddb
  12. That is correct. Lucas has stated he does not keep tabs on the Expanded Universe stuff, except probably what the editors bring to him: Coruscant, Anakin Solo, death of Chewie, etc. He would overwrite whatever was done with EU if he were to do a sequel trilogy. His vision is first level canon, everything else is on a lower level.
  13. There is no way to run in at any higher resolution. But I believe windowed mode can be done from command line. -w maybe ?
  14. ORB and Hegemonia never really impressed me. I would stick with Homeworld
  15. Start here: http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=65993
  16. Well most people don't use the ladder anyway. It would be a good place to record stats and tournament info http://arena.gamespy.com/ladder/40054
  17. I'm sure Lucas would have used today's computer technology to make the classics if he had them. It was insistant on waiting until the technolgy caught up to do the prequels. Even look at the changes he did to the Special Edition versions.. and then to the DVD releases.
  18. Eville will release a complete package whenever he feels its ready
  19. Well I believe that represents the different between the classic trilogy and the prequels. It was deliberate. Different times call for different measures. Even the Jedi order was confused by the situation... becoming the soldiers for the Old Republic. There were many Jedi that were changed by the war. Yoda tried to beat Siduous with overwhelming force, but obviously the Sith were prepared. This very much parellels Knights of the Old Republic... in a galactic conflict, where do the Jedi stand. Do they fight? Do they use diplomacy? Do they do nothing?
  20. I installed the 2.02 patch. Still nothing. Didn't see any other patch notes to fix this particular mission. I sit there and wait and wait, eventually they get enough fighters to kill me.. esp when they fly in under the range of the top turret. ARG
  21. Well I didn't see a general topic on XWA. I'm stuck on Battle 4, Mission 3. The one where you rescue Aeron from Vergesso Base. Yes I go in straight for the base, dock, defend myself from the Ties. The dialog indicates that Aeron's aboard and we're ready to leave... but the "Vergesso Base: Board" objective never clears. Nor do I get a nav point to leave. Arg this is frustrating, been doing this level 10 times now.
  22. Seems some are here now.. not sure if these were posted, maybe on the relicforums thread
  23. Well I haven't heard from Eville about this yet, but I'm assuming he's given you permission since the EvR board is here Talk to me and we'll see about the requirements for the server. Is this a Windows thing? Or something we can do with our linux box? And if Eville didn't set you up with webspace yet, happy to do that
  24. Lumiya is back (although she isn't revealed by that name until the end) to help Jacen become a Sith Lord. Trust me, she's a pretty important character to the whole series. You won't be disappointed there
  25. All the hardbacks will come to mass market paperback.. eventually. Considering I would have to wait another 6 months to get the first one, Betrayal, and I had time this break.. I went ahead and bought the first hardcover and next two paperbacks. There will be another paperback before a hardback in the middle, then 3 paperbacks, then the finale hardback. So far, the series seems very political, since they are really fighting themselves. It seems hard to feel for any one side except: knowing the Jacen is being manipulated and Alema Rar is back against them. Like NJO, I will have to reread these books before I make a critique of the series. There's a lot to like, a lot to hate. Jacen is certainly the protagonist of this story, Jaina is just swept aside. While the writing styles are different, it seems much more akin to the Corellian trilogy or the Black Fleet Crisis. It isn't so much the battles and raw conflicts like in NJO, but more politics and talking. On some parts, I feel it is a critique (or at least strong mirror) to today's "War on Terror" Well that's my current opinion, having read once through Betrayal, Bloodlines, and Tempest.
