Title: I have that alive feeling. (NEW SA SCREENSHOT)
Post by: phreak on April 01, 2008, 12:15:32 am
edit: It may be a while as I decide to upgrade the background templates to use the mediavp standards, as well as convert our ships and weapons tables to use modular tables.  we are using the Lightspeed nebulae, but this was back in the day before they were included in the media VP pack.  I rarely have time to do this on weekdays, so if someone would like to help me out with this, i'm sure goober wouldn't mind giving you internal and svn access.

i guess this is an april fools joke that actually may bring some good

oh and click this link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AdFA6WWJ7E)

heh, actually i took that screenie in warzone.  I turned off the FPS cap and wanted to see how high it could go.  it peaked over 2000, but that was the highest i was able to get when doing screencaps.

Then that's not the SA screenie you promised! :hopping: I DEMAND A REAL SCREENSHOT!  Preferably with something interesting in it.

Post by: Snail on April 03, 2008, 01:32:46 pm
Correction, a NEW real screenshot, preferably with something and interesting in it..

There has to be a reason other than laughs that he posted this thread. Maybe it means SOMETHING is happening on SA. Unlike the stunt I pulled... :nervous:

Sesq has a family, I recently gruaduated college and am working full time, galemp too.

I'll see about loading up some missions with the 3/14 XT build and posting some screenies.  There are only two or three missions + testing left to do for the first chapter, so if we get some fred talent in here we can make a release.
Title: Re: I have that alive feeling. (NEW SA SCREENSHOT)

OK than excuse me for my last post. I really hope there is a fredder that could help finish this long awaited mod.

We have a few already.  Admiral Nelson and freespaceking, for instance.  But yes, we will.


Okay, Goober, let me ask:

:lol:, nope.  In fact, from what I can tell, MT is the biggest organizational nightmare on HLP, by far.

We have organization.  In fact, Sesq put together an excellent project plan.  But it's not an organizational nightmare.
Title: Re: I have that alive feeling. (NEW SA SCREENSHOT)

Apparently organization doesn't make things get done any faster.

There are only so many people to go around.  We consciously decided to focus on one project at a time, to avoid spreading resources too thin.  Both TVWP and ST:R are almost completed.  It makes much more sense to finish those off first before taking up SA.

Missed your post, and I'll have to differ.

Organization helps. If there's Mission 1 Version 2.0 out which is the finished version, but everyone has Mission 1 Version 1.9, then everyone gets ****ed when 200 different versions spawn from Version 1.9.

I have a theory that, secretly, all the unreleased projects are the work of Goober alone which is why it's taking so long.

Prove me wrong.  ;)

It would all be RickRoll in that case.



I mean, if he was doing that it would all be released by now. :nervous:

Don't blame us. I do mods and models, Goober does code, and both are done.

Well, we both do missionz too.  But the main thing is that we're trying to get ST:R (and a few other things) finished first.

Cause TrashMan was posting crap. Goobah said if he posted 10 more craps, then he'd be monkeyed. One, two, three... Then it jumped to ten and Trash got monkeyed. :D

But that's only half of the story. Flipside churned out the icon, and kara plopped it onto Goober's head.
