Hail, o' masters of porting (I guess mainly Goober5K and GalEmp),
As I've dusted off most of me old FS1/2 stuff, I've come across a.., well, .. "BackPort" thingamadoodle that I wuz working on quite some time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. Whazzat, I hear you explain? Basically, it's a FS2 "port" for FS1. Y'know, the one that can't be done.
Thing I had in mind, though: I clearly remember some screenies and gossip about a FS1 version with planets (gasp!) as background. Moreover, these were displayed along suns. In other words not a replacement, but the real deal. Are those recollections mere pipe dreams, or whatnot? Is there any way to get those hacked into FS1? Is it an EXE hack, a Beta leak, pre-production screenies, or what? Does anybody know? Am I wasting my time?
And why would I want such a thing? Well, the backgrounds in FS1 are a bit -- how to say it -- lackluster compared to full out FS2 nebula's, I trust you agree. Basically, I want to flesh out the backgrounds a bit.
Anyone?
