Ten years ago, on the first weekend of October, Silent Threat was released.

Unfortunately, Silent Threat: Reborn isn't ready to release yet.  But we have something almost as good.


Trailer
FreeSpaceMods YouTube

71.5 MB.  Requires Quicktime, or something that plays MOV files.

Assembly, text captions, and effects were done by Steven Trauger.  The GTI logo was created by Tom Fetterolf based on a design by Volition.

I expecially like the credits thing at the end and the Earth/fiery bird motif.

I can't wait! I'm so pants at the original ST...  That one mission where you lead the assualt on the GTI station. Maybe this one will be more lenient so I can succeed without lowering the difficulty or cheating.

Thanks.

Though the lack of HTL ships/mediavps was a bit disappointing
Funny story behind that.  I had to use the 3.5.5 version of the SCP to record with, because neither retail nor 3.6.9 worked.

This, of course, won't prevent you from using the mediaVPs when playing, however.


It might have been better to pick another music track.

That one's been used EVERYWHERE.
Tough.   I've wanted to use it in a FreeSpace video ever since I saw it in the Two Towers trailer, and it kept getting pushed back until now.  Besides, it's still good music.

There was a distinct absence of the vaunted GTD GeeTeeDee.  I'm slightly disappointed.

Can it be easily redone with more graphical effects some day (soon), to appeal to a wider audience?

No.  That would require re-recording all the in-game footage.

By the time we worked out what was wrong with FRAPS and the new builds, recorded the footage, and edited it together... you'd be able to play it on your own computer.

Shiku objected that there is simple dogfighting and not particulary anything very characteristic of the mod, but at my opinion, I liked that after "But they arenť the only enemies" there was a fight against terran ships. Someone who hasnt known the mod can be sorta surprised and thats what I liked a lot.

About the missing GTD - Do you mean the Hades? It was displayed during the last few moments, no ?

The original Silent Threat mission 3 had an Orion named "GTD".

Will the GTD *Blank* have a proper name?
Like for instance the GTD Orestes...But no ship exists with that name in the GTA's Database.

The "GTD" has been renamed.  Or re-designated, I guess.
