Title: Hi. I'm new.
Post by: Shekaenah on January 04, 2004, 05:43:41 pm
Hi. I'm new to this forum, as you all can see. My name's Erik, I'm 14 years old and I love the game FreeSpace. It has got to be one of the most awesome games in the world. (even though I suck at it.) I play guitar, also. I'm a big fan of Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Megadeth etc. So...uh yeah.


Awesome forum btw. :nod:


EDIT: http://www.geocities.com/sadida0000/dude.mp3 if you wanna hear some guitar thing I wrote, right click > save target as. Solatar can tell you it's really me playing. :D

Welcome to HLP. Flamethrowers are under the seats, and if a Shivan attacks you, hope it's Carl. If it's not, you'll at least die quickly.

Two newbies join in less than a few mins, and people worry that FS2 is dead :) I'll just cut and paste my reply from the other thread :)

:welcome:

Have a look at the Source Code Project now that you're here. We've done some wonderful things to FS2 (It's almost a new game!).
 If you want to get into modding or FREDding have a look at my FAQ for more information.

I remember when firing the beam used to be a race and you were king of the world for 15 minutes if you got to it first. Now everyone just abuses it. :doubt:

To avoid the usual "Someone get out the welcome beam" "I don't have it, does someone know where it is?" "I think so, lemme check" "Ok" "Hmm, no, I can't find it" "Darn." "Hey guys, here it is:  ...."

I wonder if any Vasudans (save for that poor Seth Pilot) had interactions with Shivans, like in the Mainhall cutscene...  :nervous:

some advice:
don't ask about FS3
don't ask questions about FRED until you've done the walkthrough
use beam-free-all
don't be a jerk

... and welcome to HLP :D

If you've got broadband or access to it you can get it from HotU. Check my FAQ for details on how to get it and how to turn it into a full working version.

Pretty cool guitars. Especially the Kirk Hammett signature. If you want real good quality guitars for a real cheap price, check out Agile. http://rondomusic.bigstep.com These guitars, like the Les Paul copy, are better quality than Epiphones and are much cheaper. :D
