Star Wars: The Mod Strikes Back

[mrkingkong]

Just to throw a spanner in the works odin ( ) here is the updated version of the Compenium of Races! Its about twice the size or sumthing (dont hold me to that, its probably more!)

Dont worry if you feel a bit duanted by it- im not desperate that you upload it to your webpage!

Just finished it like i promised!
Its so big it has to come in two parts...

There ya go, im going to remove the original now! Is it anygood? Or too big, or waffly?

Regards,

No, they're good. Hey, If you're online, can you do me a favor? I just updated the sites, but on my Pc, most of the links direct me to my personal files, not the ones on the internet. If it doesn't work, I'll have to spend another d*mn day on the site again. If that's the case, the site is off the net until tomorrow due to technical difficulties.
Anyhoo, back to the mod; as soon as I get the site back up, Sheep Monster will have the first playable mod/idea/beta/scenario ready for download.

 

[mrkingkong]

Kwl!

I wasnt quite sure what you meant by that-do u want me to test the links or sumfin?

mrkingkong

 

[odintheking]

Ok, can you go to the site, and click on all the links? Like, "Lists", "Home", etc., and tell me if they work on your computer?

 

[mrkingkong]

Hmmm....earlier wen i went on everything was working (including the first link you posted), all the links like the list and home buttons and everything.

But now.... none of it worked. The new link was fine, but when i got on the site's homepage i couldnt access any of the other areas...

Ill try again in five minutes, and tell you if it works.

regards,
mrkingkong

 

[odintheking]

No, it's alright. That's what I thought. I'll have to manually put the internet links instead of the html pages, . Oh, well. Tomorrow It'll be fixed.

 

[mrkingkong]

I went on again like i said, and the buttons along the top of the page still dont work, but the list in blue in todays news takes me to the links page, from where i could access the list me and chris put on?

Strange

Ok, the website is back up. Everything works fine. On another note, here is a preview of the first couple of frames of Yoda attacking with a lightsaber. I'll try to get it out by the end of summer:

 

[mrkingkong]

Alright guys, there doesnt seem to be much discussion of late! lol.

I take it you are all busily working away like little ants (either that, or youre busy in, u know, real life! )

Can i just ask what everyone is upto, and what yall want me to do next. I got quite a lot of free time. What is the best 3d modelling/animation program to learn in ur opinions?

Cheers,
mrkingkong

@odin: website looking good, just needs filling by us all now doesnt it

@sheepmonster: did i hear you were making a very early beta version of the mod?

Sorry if im pestering yall.

 

[odintheking]

Sheepmonster's making, something.... He says it's the first "maybe mod" or something like that. He PM'ed me about, and I emailed him the password, but he hasn't put it up yet.
BTW, does anybody else think that we need a unit request thread? Or does one already exist?

 

[odintheking]

C'mon.... We need to keep this thread alive. Sheepmonster? any news?

 

[Chris85]

Relax, I think everyone's still here. I was out of town yesterday and sheepmonster usually only checks in about every 2-3 days and he's probably still working on that beta mod. I don't think anyone has much to say right now, until more progress is made.

I'm still trying solve my dillemma of making lasers in OpenFX that look good for my TIE Fighter, but I think for now I'm going to make them by hand, since it would be faster and I can make look almost as good as lasers made from a 3-d model anyway.

Hey, if you guys need a map of the galaxy I just made one. Each planet takes up only one tile and it uses the same rules and terrain from Pleb's Clone Wars scenario. I haven't placed any resources yet either. If you guys want to check it out you can(let me know and I'll post it in the map forum)and if you like it you can have it 'cause I got no no use for it.

 

[odintheking]

Sure, Commodore, anything will help, . Also, Kinboat's having another lottery. Everyone suggest something for the mod. If you don't know what, just reserve a post for the mod.

 

[Chris85]

Cool! Kinboat's havin another lottery. There's a lot of units out there we can request too. In the last lottery I requested "Home 1", this time I think I'm more inclined to go for the Juggernaut to see what Kinboat can do with that if we win.

 

[odintheking]

Can I see a pic of the Juggernaut?
EDIT: Happy Birthday!!!!!

 

[Chris85]

Wow! you're quick on the trigger today. I'm still looking for a decent pic on the internet, I might have to scan one from one of my books.

 

[odintheking]

Check in OT, I made you a thread,

 

[Chris85]

I rarely go into OT, most people there probably don't know who I am.

I came up with a couple of pics of a Juggernaut.

 

[odintheking]

Ohhhh, those things. You should've just said, "those things the Clones used on Kasshyyk",
