Roan Fel and skywalker blood.....hmmmmm. The end of Legacy of the Force leans itself to Jaina at least getting friendly with Jagged again. Maybe it'll be jacen's daughter and a future son of jagged that gets the force in. I know there'd be an age difference, but hey, look at Anakin and Amidala. There's a good 10 years there.

I'm reading the Legacy comic books at the mo. I really like the way things have got gritty. I was a little disappointed at the end of the Legacy of the Force series too. It's fairly obvious that the ensuing books will connect up to the legacy comic books. They've introduced Krayt's Sith lords hiding on Korriban, and placed Jagged Fel in charge of the Empire. If you've read the comics then you'll know how that all ends up. I suppose the bottom line here though, is HOW WILL LUKE SKYWALKER DIE??????

Geez, it's amazing what can happen when work keeps you away from a computer for a few days. I appear to have missed some momentous changes - namely the addition of fuel. I am now the proud owner of 90 TDs with no gas...... With only 1 assault frigate and 3 heavy gunships around, does anyone have any suggestions as to how I would go about refueling all of them, since they can't go anywhere?

Figured it out. I had to replace the files on the desktop - For some BIZARRE reason, I have to have a copy of all the files unzipped on the desktop, but I load up from the .bat INSIDE the zip folder. Every other combination I've tried doesn't work. Truly strange.

Self explanatory topic. I downloaded the latest one (used the link from page 5 of the GalSim Update forum). Did I miss a new one?

Couple of quick questions - relevant because I'm in the battle sector. 1) Do ships have a sensor range or will any other ship in the sector appear on screen? 2) Anyone happen to be in the battle sector right now? There's an assault frigate, 3 gunships and about 90 TDs patrolling towards the centre, and they're justing asking to be killed! (yes, they're mine).

Geez. If that's all the wreckage I came across in the battle sector..........that looked messy.

It's not so much a gameplay as it is an interface suggestion....but is it possible to have a 'return to sector view' button on the main menu, instead of having to select a unit from the Fleets interface and using the 'zoom to unit' and 'zoom to sector' buttons there? And is there a way to see how much money I have? The treasury in the main menu indicates I have 0.00..... Sorry for so many questions. It's my first day, and I'm trying to get my head around it all

The 150000 we receive at the start to purchase units - do we get more every turn or do we have to wait till we kark it?

Hi all, just managed to get this thing working (a bizarre journey in how learning all about how strange computers can be) Looking forward to a battle.

Reminds me of the mission in X-Wing Alliance, where you deliver Bacta to the Rebel station and an ISD II and 2 Lancers show up. God they need to make a new X-Wing Simulator.

HA! I'd forgotten this thread. I'm so hungover that I read the title (Crickets chirping) and thought it might refer to the glorious boxing day cricket test - Australia vs India at the MCG. God I love summer. And Cricket. But NOT moonshine - that shit is pure evil. EVIL.

Last time something like this happened to me, it was a hardware related issue. The video card was dying and the motherboard was close behind it. If you've got Vista 64, I'd assume it's a relatively new computer...could be faulty hardware. Do you get anything like this in other games; speckles, lines, bleeding issues, polygons appearing a bit randomly?

I'm on 64-bit Vista. I don't have any of these issues.

"Great Kid! Don't get cocky!"

Intel Core 2 Quad 6600 @ 2.4 Ghz 4gb DDR2 8800 GTX 764mb Vista Ultimate 64-bit 2 150gb 10,000rpm drives I have no problems with everything cranked right round. There needs to be a shitload of ships, explosions and wreckage for any slowdown.

I'm with Shadow on this one. It makes sense to test it separately first.

As sacreligious as it may be to mention it here, I just came across some an article about the development of the Star Trek MMO. From an initial glimpse....well really it's far too early to tell but if all the scuttlebutt that I read is even remotely true, Galaxies and EVE are going to have their work cut out for them.

I got no qualms with pvp, as long as it's on a huge scale. Jump to Lightspeed was fun, damn fun in fact, but I wait for the day of being able to bring the portside batteries to bear on some poor bastard of a corvette. Then my social life will end. If it's really going to be in the next expansion pack then I better settle up my affairs....

I don't know about anyone else, but I'd be more interested in a return to the space simulator genre. I know they've got it in Galaxies - I played it and while it was entertaining, I got bored with the lack of scale. I'd love to see an X-wing game where the Star Destroyers are truly, truly, truly MASSIVE - and the detail has been laser scanned from the Model from Empire Strike s back. Proper Mon Cal starships.....god it would be good. And while we're in dreamland:), there should 200 single-player missions, maybe set during the Thrawn Era. 100 missions for each side and each mission has multiple objectives and systems to travel to. And THEN(!) the expansion pack covers the commanding of capital ships - opening the chance to setting gun batteries to fire at specific targets, and eventually letting people operate as crews. It's all possible.....but it's never gonna happen. *sigh*.

"Hello? Yes, this is the artillery department......you need Howitzers for some point blank range punishment? We can manage that...who's it for?......harvey032186? Oh I know him! He's doing some tweaking over at Warlords.......HE SAID WHAT!?!?!?!?! JAR JAR IS COOL!??????? RIGHT! I'll get those guns over to you right now! ;D

It's been a while but the Battlefleet Gothic idea has been floated and seems to be working. Most of my mates still use the Warhammer vessels, so we're doing some conversion work with the SW vessels. Is anyone else collecting these any more?

Well, at least he's kind enough to say goodbye. :'(

I've got the vis cranked up to full. I couldn't tell you what settings the card is set to run at other than as hard as I can make it (at my work computer at the mo). In comparison to what I had before, the game looks stunning - The glow and reflections off starship hulls, the glow of turbolasers, the all round general improvement in graphics. The ISD II's still lose their sensor domes if you're looking at them from a long, long way off, and other capital ships also lose detail at distance. I'm not sure (so don't quote me) but I think that is a changeable point if you go in and edit the ships with notepad. If I had the time, I'd experiment to see.

nice idea greendayman. I like it.
