Looking for effects circa 2002
I'm trying to restore the Tale of EAS Janus campaign, but it's from 2002 and the sun/starfield/planet files it uses have been renamed.  I can figure out some of them but others I have no idea.  Does anyone have a copy of TBP from around then or know where to get one?

Re: Looking for effects circa 2002
I have a copy of the 2nd TBP release and a corresponding copy of Tales of EAS Janus. I'll upload them and you can see if that helps.

EDIT: When I went to upload them I discovered I also have version 1.1 of Tales EAS Janus and I don't know if that is newer than the version you have. I checked Mission 1 and it's certainly newer than the version in the VP file I have. I also have what is supposedly a demo mission from Tales of EAS Janus 2.  Anyway, here are the links.

TBP version 2.0
EAS Janos 1.1
EAS Janos 2 Demo Mission

Re: Looking for effects circa 2002
TBP 2.0 has at least some of what I'm looking for.
Janus 1.1 is newer than what I have.
Many thanks.

Isn't that one of mine, one of the absurdly balanced multiplayer ones? Gosh I had no clue about game design then, why would someone want to experience that again? Unless, you want to fix it up of course  :)

No, this one was mainly designed by Lady Rose.

It'd be great if you could post that.
