We've been secretly working on some pretty nice stuff for Shadows of Lylat. It has been quite a while since we released the first trailer, so it was about time release another one. In this trailer you'll see a shot of the starmap, which you will see before you start a mission, as well as some new ice landscape shots. Download AVI (720p xvid)or Watch on Youtube (720p)(watch in fullscreen to get real HD) Our new hompage is up as well! It's still a bit empty, but we'll start adding some more content soon. www.shadowsoflylat.net  ...maybe this the right point to mention that we're still looking for coders, scripters and at least one good sound engineer.  |

Put simply, ****. In a good way.  Doesn't seem possible in FS, as Battuta said. |

Those screensots are just amazing.
I never played any Starfox games, so I don't think I can help you, but I'm waiting for SOL just because of those models (that's the best landscape I ever seen in FS).

No, Nuke isn't part of our team. However, his scripting knowledge alone would be enough reason to let him join instantly, if he's interested. The landscapes were created by me. Water fixed up some very nasty problems with the ice landscape. Thanks to the corridor mode missions, we're able to build some fairly complex landscapes without too many problems. |

Are you a time traveler?

Well, the engine may have some limitations, but once you know what can't be done, you can find some ways around the limitations and get do what you want anyway. Actually, thanks to the long development time and the number of coders, from all over the world, the engine has a lot of smaller, but pretty interesting features. I.e. what you might not even have noticed. We've used animated normal maps for the water. We've been sharing some ideas with Diaspora. And the Diaspora coders worked on some features which SoL will use as well. Nothing of that can be seen in this trailer, but you should expect to see some interesting things in the next trailers of these these two projects.  |

LOL it is highly probable that SoL will be the best Star Fox game EVER, and it's not even a licenced game, and it constitutes copyright infringement XD

[15:54] <JeffVader> not even tech support dudes can win every time
[15:55] <JeffVader> I was testing that Crossing the Styx thing and wondered "why the **** do I get the FSPort splash screen? why the **** do I get the FS1 style main hall? why the **** do the FS1 and Silent Threat campaigns show up in the campaign room?"
[15:55] <JeffVader> concidering that I had selected cts as a mod, with mod.ini referencing the mediavps
[15:56] <JeffVader> then I suddenly thought of something and went to check
[15:56] <JeffVader> and yes, I had entered some -mod ****, including fsport, in custom flags
MULTIPLAYER WANTS YOU!!!!

I watched it like 400 times. I"m so happy *tear*. Ahem! I wonder if some music will have canon StarFox music embedded in it, but remixed. |

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force. Temp is now passive.
