Happy birthday dude! Reloaded will happen. The looooong wait has been for a multitude of reasons, chiefly when the original project was proposed it was to be a TOTAL conversion; ie: not simply a mod. That means replacing everything you experiance ingame. Thats like err... several thousand dlls, pull-up menus, GUI, etc, not just the characters, ships, troops, etc. A big job. Well the good news is a vast chunk of everything has been done, the models are done, and well; Mask and his team have done a wonderful job. The wav files are almost done as well. The time element has got a little out of hand I agree, but if you want to grasp exactly how much needed replacing, open up the game files with resource hacker and your see what I mean.... And when I say WILL happen I mean it. Years of work have gone in to it now, no one involved is going to simply shrugg away all that effort are they? ...but buy a six pack in the mean time...

If physics had been tought to me at school in such terms maybe I would have had more time to learn the mundain stuff than daydream like Calvin out of the window....

AGHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! I wish I had known that before I deleated my 140 MB file!!! All bloody evening.... ***collapses in tears***

I still can't see your avatar dude!

God forbid! This entire leek and carrot invasion thingy has almost completely tuned me out of what little sense there was left in the EU...

...right well don't expect anything on this front from me for a while. The tutorial worked, sort of, but the resulting file size of 140 mb for my little ol PC is just a bit to tough for me to continue playing around with this poser-lark.

This assumes I can figure Poser out. Good footie on the box tonight as well, so wont be quick....

Luke bullseyeing Wamprats on Tattooine, or Leia growing up on a 'peaceful Alderaan,' would be to boring to imagine. I would prefer something darker akin to the excellent comic, Star Wars Empire, where we more or less get to see the true dark nature of the Empire. The timespan would enable GL to make the final transition from the visual aspect of the Empire; ie: evolution of Stormtroopers, fighters, and capital ships, into what thundered onto the silver screen in 1977 (with such a rousing score) with that rather large Star Destroyer rumbling over head, and the onslaught of Stormtroopers... I reckon further films shouldn't be ruled out however....

I think most people use 800 x 600 so it wouldn't be unreasonable for you to photomash and Nelsonbash when you've got a sec GAT...

Thanks M, but I did some googling this afternoon and discovered some tutorials concerning Poser, which i've just located on a dodgy disk....

Along simular lines; Maskiness, do you know what software you would need to create Star Wars rolling script?* *That I,allas, being an idiot, could use?

Found this: http://img93.echo.cx/img93/2742/panda4ef.jpg Quite frankly the guy who made it is a genius.

Very interesting. The SW Universe time period between RotS and ANH obviously would GL to roam completely freely with his original vision I guess. The 'evil galactic Empire,' is in place, and the rebellion is simmering away....

Sorry, just picked up on something: Petroglyph are Westwood?

...you know my avatar here...the Scout trooper on a Space Hopper.... he's not running, he's not walking, he's BOUNCING! I was being sarcastic; if it's free forum-hosting, there are obviously going to be limits on avatar file sizes... so you get my cat pretending to be Yoda. Sounds cool about the hidden thingy; i'll keep checking tonight here abouts....

I joined, though to my horror; I CAN'T BOUNCE! I DEMAND the avatar system be reprogrammed so I CAN BOUNCE. Life is not normal for me without BOUNCING! Only kidding. Looks cool Cain. I've thrown a few questions that should interest most folks round here; ie: the status of characters, their development, the Force, naming ships, etc, and was interested in the 'undecided' aspect of rank with units; which is about the second most desired-option for every Rebellion II 'want.'

Old pro here dude

Along sort of simular lines; something my dad just sent me from Canada: The Universe Train If each star in the known universe were represented by a grain of sand,a thimble would hold all the stars visible on a clear,dark summer night.A dump truck would contain the Milky Way,the galaxy in which the Sun is located.. To illustrate all the stars in the universe,we would need a freight train with hopper cars filled with sand. Now imagine the train beginning to pass b yusatalevelcrossing.DIV We count the cars as they roar past,one per second. The minutes pass,then hours,then days. We would have to keep count 24 hours a day for three years before the universe train completed it's pass. The universe train would use all the sand on all the beaches on planet Earth.It would be long enough to stretch around Earth,25 times...! I replied, 'thanks dad for leaving me feeling so insignificant...'

I have the sudden urge to turn to the dark side.... I blame you not. The Dark Side is fun when you get to plan your evil galactic conquests with your fiendish henchmen, tibbles, and Eric the Parrot, whilst wearing your favourite Stormtopper hat.

I've never seen a red Star Destroyer before. Are there any green ones?

The avatars most of us have bashed together in Photoshop and Image ready ourselves. I believe Trej added something in the FAQ about how to host an avatar you want to use, you need somewhere to host an image. A simple google search for Star Wars Gifs or Avatars should give you thosands of choices. Right click something you like, copy the url in properties and paste it into your profile here found under the forum option above us. This is the simple option. You have to be careful though, because you have no control over the image your linking, and it has been known for certain links to be hyjacked with porn, which you may not wish to be associated with on a Star Wars game site... If your stuck feel free to pester me. I didn't know how do lots of stuff once as well. Username? It's inspired. lol.

Vary nice Kaja. http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0QwCpAksUs7VwR3d0SB44SZcXbiLMHRiyRus04SbHnTjC9Io9vVwizD8j!9xNxzWqKjpgWjlHT0XkgQ4A!q4bxSZwJXEApTi*47cL*y!3j40/SimpWoo.gif Some of the greatest events in human history have come about due to someone being bored. A Norwegian for example invented the paperclip.

Just something Psychotic-Bob reminded me of; does anyone remember a Red Alert 2 Star Wars mod?

Actually if you examine my post more carefully you'll discover it was I who identified Needa (I obscured the name by posting it in forum background black....) Right, that well and truelly is it for me in this thread. People don't appear to be reading other people's posts. The clone question all the way back was concerning Stormtroopers NOT Imperial officers who obviously in the films weren't clones (given they look differant for example...) I'm going off to sulk somewhere for a while.
