Neat

You don't need a top of the line gaming computer. That's my point. Plus its easier to upgrade a computer than buying a new console. Backward compatibility - Revolution, only compatible with Gamecube discs .. older games will need to be bought and downloaded - PS3 is said to be backward compatible - to what extent, we've not seen yet - XBox 360 is only compatible with a certain list of XBox games

They've never confirmed they were making it, so how can they confirm its cancelled

You have to consider too the way consoles are always on the move. You invest all the money into getting a Nintendo, and a Dreamcast, and a Playstation, and a Playstation 2, and a Gamecube, and an XBox. The next generation consoles coming out, you have to invest in a Xbox 360, a Playstation 3, Nintendo Revolution. And what can you do with the old equipment? Nothing except keep them, or have someone buy them back at a used price. And most consoles won't have backward compatibility.. so you can't even play the old games without running it on the old console. You could invest all that money into computers, you'd have something you can easily upgrade by putting in more memory, a better video card, or a better processor, etc. And when the time comes, buying a new system these days isn't that expensive.. you don't need to buy a top-of-the-line computer to run all the games. Most of the games are backwards-compatible, with compatibily modes and so forth. And you can still use the computers as a general-purpose system.. say you have other siblings, children, etc... I just think that computers are the best value for the buck. Not against anyone who buys console games, I have and I do. But I'd just like to encourage people to get the computer version and not mindlessly shelling out money for the latest exclusive console-only product. There are people who don't have the money to shell out for every new console, I'd like to encourage games to be marketed for the PC, as even the developers use PCs to develop their games.

Unfortunately the Windows versions were updated to use XvT's engine, which requires a joystick. There isn't really a way around that, I've tried The best I've gotten is a program for a mouse to emulate a joystick... that doesn't quite work because its awkward for a mouse. You can't really duplicate the way the mouse should work as in the DOS versions of the game.

That the Windows version right? Yep, requires a joystick. Nothing you can do about that

Yet you still have to consider the accessories you pay for, as well as the games themselves. And for extra services such as XBox Live, you have to pay. Plus if it breaks down, you have little options there. How often would you use a system that is solely dedicated to gaming, where you can have a computer that can do multiple functions? In terms of medium, I can always backup my game disks in case I ever need them again. With other consoles, I know there are indirect ways to do so but not sure how hard it is.

Sure, I'll create a forum here for your project. Have a name yet? Or shall we just do Bridge Commander Mod for now?

Don't suppose you want a place here for your mod then? Or perhaps when you get a first release ready. This server is fast

That would all be Eville Jedi. You'd have to ask him for permission to use his models

LucasArts is pretty aggressive in enforcing their copyright for Star Wars. Heck, you can't even post the music from their SW games.

Mad, you may want to see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abandonware http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_infringement

Why do I have a feeling that their site is gonna be shut down by Lucas real soon...

There many sims out there already. I've had experience with most of them. Still some players from SWSF, but most are new. The biggest is still SWC - http://www.swcombine.com A lot of splinters from there - we have our own community sim at http://www.swcic.net (No massive system at the moment, just for people to roleplay while we develop things) And of course, there's the more gamer-oriented Rebellion online project - SW Galactic Civil War. Currently in development, check the forums at http://forum.swgalacticcivilwar.com The roleplaying on SWRebellion is mostly free-form, since actually creating a sim here would take time that we don't have

http://www.whois.sc/blingo.com Host registration doesn't give much. Some company out of Virginia. Created 2001, so if Google hasn't had it shut down, they either don't know about it or they approve of it. Chances are its a scam

Try running in Compatibility Mode

When has Bush made fun of the French exactly? Can you cite any quote? French fries were from Belgium dude

Sounds like it was only a demo disk, usually included in a gaming magazine. You'd have to buy the retail version to play. Wasn't "Dark Forces 2" Jedi Knight? Mysteries of the Sith was the expansion to JK.

Are you using the correct shortcut parameters? -mod Warlords122205.big

Yep, unforunately that wouldn't be possible. Especially with neither the source code to Rebellion or Homeworld 2

Ala, the Katana fleet? Or are you refering to something else... I never run a game that long to really mass such a fleet

Wasn't there a Bridge Commander project somewhere.. I think from the P90 team. Not sure if anything developed from there You can always message the people directly through our forums. You ask Eville Jedi about his models for Warlords. For SW:Rebellion, you can ask the the creators of those models Nice ship .. and Good luck

Please don't spam people. There is no point.

I prefer the Futurama version: "Santa Claus is gunning you down"

Please make sure you are using the HW 1.1 Patch. And create a new player profile.
