Oops! Hard Drive crashed! by
12:53 pm EST
Yep. My primary partition on my main computer went out the window Sunday night... however, I was able to restore 90% of my files from it afterwards. Anyway, I got a new 7200 rpm drive to replace it so thats cool. Anyway, its taken me till today to get things back to where they were, so I haven't done any work on the MOD. But, really, keep checking in! We've got a plan to release as soon as we can! Soon you'll have your transforming Veritechs, ok?
P.S. Transforming Veritechs are cool!

I haven't seen Max in AGES.

Well, things have happened last week. Sad and also VERY important things, it's time to post about it. I won't give out everything for most stuff is not for you to know, but you have to know that Max has some RL issues that will prevent him to work for the community for at least some months. I hope to see him online for this laps of time, but nothing is less sure. Anyway, I do hope to see him back next year.
Now about the Robotech campaign. The staff is talking right now about how to go on. Lot of stuff is already done, and awaits to be released in a new pack to come very soon.
There's some stuff never seen before in a fs mod, like the transforming veritechs.
I can assure you that the robotech is in no mean dead, and will go on. We as a staff will go on on our own till Max is back, and I'm confident he will in a not so far future.
Anyway, I ask you a favour, as one of the guys that is the most interested in everything that happens in this community:
Please gon on the robotech site ( http://robotechlan.com/freespace2/ ("http://robotechlan.com/freespace2/") ) andf show support. Even for those who doesn't like Robotech, for you can see it as a brand new way ofplaying Freespace. It has some of the best models out there ( we have a new staffer -another french (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)- who really deoes amazing job on ship modelling and skin making), we have a very complete plot based on the show, and we have a very dynamic and enthousiastic staff, one you really like to work with. So I ask you, first, to download the current mod pack if you didn't yet, and to post about it on the forums. And I ask you again, please show the interest that this TC deserves. Wezll, that's all.

Poor Max - I wonder if he wants me to do anymore work for him...

I've been thinking, robotech is the perfect example of the alpha 1 syndrome. will the missinons reflect that?
-
???
Have you ever seen robotech? Neither Rick Hunter, Dana Sterling or Scott Bernard (the three heroes) wo a war by themselves, I can say that even if they died at the begining of each series, the end would have been the same. They're just heroes, like there was during any war.
For the plaer's implication in the campaign, well, I dunno, it's not my part.

i have seen all 3 series. maybe my memories of it are a little distorted. what i meant was you see max roy, miria, and rick shellacking hundreds of zentraedi by themselves, most notably in the episode where the main zentraedi force comes and they blast the earth(die minmei die). you even see rick taking down a full sized zentraedi cruiser.
will the mods reflect that?

1st gen Robotech (aka Macross) is very Alpha 1..... sure, Rick and Max don't win the war on their own, but they are at every last major event.
Southern Cross is less centered around Dana, mainly because the 15th ATACs have about a half-dozen 'core' members, not to mention other people such as Marie Crystal, Nova Satori, Zor Prime, etc etc.

For what I remember, Rick ends the battle crashed on earth, and waiting to know how the thing will end (btw: yeah! die minmei!!!)
I still don't know about the campaign lol
