A few more, unmodded screens.

Star Trek Legacy. The first three are from stargate mods. Raziel made a couple of the ships. (classes in order: Daedalus, Hat'ak, O'Neil)

I have it. its pretty good; though the controls take a little getting used to. Here's the controls: Mouse: camera angling (camera is tethered at the ship) WSAD keys: pitch angle (up and down are hard to use effectively, so I rarely use them) f (hold): target options (opens an on screen radial menu with non-combat options - scan, warp to, hail, dock with shipyard for fast repairs, beam people to or away from a station) Mouse wheel: throttle (Full impulse, 1/2 impulse, 1/4 impulse, 0 impulse) spacebar: reset targeting reticule mouse button 1: fire phasers and disruptors mouse button 2: fires photons SHIFT-T: Subsystem targeting (PC version has issues with this, as they were stupid and assigned subsystem selection to the WSAD keys, which are already used for pitch. So you basically have to aim towards different parts of the ship, or hope the auto targeting system picks the subsytems you want it to) r (hold): brings up repair menu, click on systems that you want repaired. Here's an ingame pic. The Romulan Warbird Dwarfs the Intrepid class.

Its free (though its interface is not as good as wings). I was thinking I could use it to skin and animate, since it has these functions. unfortunately, I haven't a clue how to skin or animate with it. Is there anyone who knows how to do either of these things in this program?

superb!

oh. well, there's still no other thing the Bioware/Lucasarts project could be, so I'm still satisfied.

This new MMO; it wouldn't happen to be the Stargate MMO, would it?

I'm working on a BF2 map/mod. BTW; Where does the ReadDataFile part go? An existing file?

oh. :-[ srry for being slow on the uptake.

i doubt it'll be an MMO. Bioware made a good RPG engine for single player, but MMOs have game mechanics that conflict with everything that made KotOR I and KotOR II good (party system, voices for characters, saving and loading, not having enemies reappear after you kill them...) It would make sense to me that they would just improve on the engine the last two ran on, rather than make a brand new one. I think the MMO rumor is unfounded.

recent development. has a two player multiplayer, and force powers are controlled with the nunchuck. The graphics are a little rougher, but the multiplayer's worth it. Looking forward to: -SSB: Brawl (Wii) -Spore (PC) -The Force Unleashed (Wii) Hoping will be announced: -Battlefront III (PC) (Renegade Squadron does NOT count-unless they rerelease it to PC, Xbox 360, and PS3) -KotOR III (PC) (What else would LucasArts and Bioware be working on together?) I'm also looking forward to finally getting a Wii. the problem is, the wii is very rare right now; most stores are exhausted by the holiday rush. BTW; what's the difference between the Japan version and the US version? Are they the same?

That's funny. my friend's sister's name is the name of the 3rd piece on that list. I was wondering what its origins were...

Ever notice that when Single player campaigns are added to the game, they show up as default campaigns and not modded ones?

yay! I was hoping the Frontier would be skinned eventually. And Mandalore looks chillingly accurate.

THANK YOU DEDE! ;D

Except the fact that the only time we see stormtroopers killed at the battle of endor (and even then, most appeared to be just incapacitated) are when their being strangled by ropes or knocked out with big rocks. The arrows in the movie were just a diversion; they all know that they wouldn't put a dent in the armor, but that doesn't make a wave of arrows flying at you any less unnerving. Only in battlefront do they do significant damage, and that's just for balancing. For AT walkers, AT-STs would be theoretically simplest to defeat. explosives planted at ground level would throw them off balance, toppling them. AT-ATs are much more durable, however. Tanks wouldn't do well because the AT-ATs would crush them under their footpads. Unless we're lucky enough that they land in Alaska on an ice field, there's not much we could do. even if we tried using the cable techniqe, you have to realize that SW cables are made of advanced materials unavailable to us. Our cables would have to be strong enough to withstand the force exerted by the motors that drive it legs, or they'd just snap like string. Bullets wouldn't scratch them. rockets would have to be well aimed as previouly mentioned. So basically, we'd be better off either overloading their circuitry, or knocking them over. also, we'd have to consider whether or not the weapons still fire once knocked over. This is an issue in Rebel Strike, where the some of the crashed ISD's turrets still work if you don't destroy them in orbit (naturally, this makes no sense due to the fact that atmospheric friction would wreak havoc on the turrets, but the principle works with ground vehicles). Plus, once we destroy a few walkers with said techniques, they'd switch to using repulsor tanks instead.

ditto ;D

Not to mention the extensive damage to our own planet's ecosystem and people. I realized something else, too; compared to the star wars galaxy, Earth is immensely diverse. SW has Ice planets, desert planets, volcanic planets, oceanic planets, jungle planets, temperate planets, and rocky planets. Earth is one planet, and it has all of those environments. That would make it very valuable; fresh water source (including from Triton, etc.) to supplement the empire's supply of drinkable water (which, due to the amount of land destroyed in the manufacturing of Warships, would be dwindling), food source (tenable lands in the Russian Steppes, California, Vietnam, etc.), mining capabilities (debatable; depends on what they'd use, but the upper class would like the diamonds collected, and could also be used for lightsabres. Includes the Asteroid belt.), potential biowarfare resource in diseases, animal venom, and parasites not found in SW (Chicken Pox sweeps the rebellion?), position in universe (the Earth system would provide an excellent location for research and experimental ship testing, far away from the Imperial public eye). So in short, they have every reason to keep earth intact. As for our weapons capabilities, consider the fact that truck mounted lasers wouldn't scratch a shielded vessel. We would be better off with ewok tactics (using knowledge of the environment). In the air, TIE lasers would cut through any modern Earth fighter jet like butter. Even if you shot a TIE down, you'd have to dipose of the nuclear reactor that powers it (see incredible cross sections) before it contaminates water supplies. The first step would be UN negotiations with the empire. The Empire would pull the same tactic sidious used in Outbound flight; help us destroy our enemy before they jeopordize your safety. Fearing the consequences of noncompliance, World Leaders would be forced to accept their presence. We'd get more slack than most planets because of our being human. Then, slowly, they would take over our planet's governments, so when public outcry becomes firmly established, there's nothing they could do. Eventually, Rebel groups would form. These rebel groups would make strategic strikes on various facilities. they'd introduce said diseases via contaminated gifts, such as food. They'd slap stolen ewebs on pick ups, salvaged tie laser cannons on jets, figure out how to reprogram droids by getting into jobs involving them in the empire, etc. They would have an arsenal made up of both SW and Earth tech. this would give them a slightly better chance of succeeding. Bullets would be useless against stormtroopers, as their armor is designed to deflect solid projectiles. they'd have to steal blasters. SW merchants contracted by the empire would eventually sell information regarding earth to the highest bidder. smugglers seeking to make a profit would run weapons and supplies and information to the insurgents in exchange for items deemed exotic in the SW Galaxy. At one point or another, they would learn of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Earth born imperial pilots serving as double agents would provide covert access to transports en route to the SW Galaxy. The rebels would contact the alliance, the alliance would intervene to win the support of Earth's population, and Earth would be enmeshed forever with the sw universe. All of this assuming we ignore the whole "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" bit. (That is, unless you throw in Star Trek Time rift generators and Stargate...well...stargates.)

When you uninstalled, where there any files left in the Star Wars: Empire at War folder?

Are there any Romulan Ships?

How about the later years of the Rakatan Empire? resistance, etc.

This reminds me of a tip I figured out: Never use auto resolve when the enemy fleet or yours has transports. It kills them first(usually yours). Even if you have two frigates and they have 3 SDs and several acclamators, kill their transports. That way, they can't invade when they defeat you, giving you time to bring in reinforcements.

what bugs me is that he says he won't make films with content from the EU books because if he referenced one he'd have to refer to them all (fairness), yet he makes up new content that often contradicts the EU books instead. The CW series vs Labrinth of Evil, for example.
