what program are you using to make those renders?

More importantly, how did you make that beam?

It's a good render mind you... but we are working on the whole "important events" thing... sorry Carl (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Well, it can't hurt to have another renderer...you haven't done any new ones for a while. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) Excellent work- I'd add a fighter or two and another beam, if you ask me though. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) And maybe make the guns visibly destroyed...

Simple, cut off part of the Sathanas model (namely a part of the guns) and paste it some distance from the Jugganaut, maybe rotate it and add a small explosion at both the detached gun and the point it was detatched from. There are of course other ways but this is probably the simplest.

Carl, me and Thunder have talked this over, and this is basically what we have to say.
You have a bunch of really great renders. However as we've said before we are already well on the way to completing the FS Timeline through renders - and whilst it's impolite to simply stop you by deleting the threads or whatever, we also feel that all we've done will be forgotten if you simply come along and basically duplicate all our hard work and our original idea. Whilst we don't want to be rude and just make a fuss about it it's equally unfair that you should so blatently mirror our project in this way.
We'd be happy to host your pictures alongside ours in the FS Story ("http://www.3dap.com/hlp/art/fsstory") section, but we must ask that you at least acknowlege what your doing. Anything less would be impolite.
Okay?
-
Needs more Sathani! 'Tis a beauty tho. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I agree with Setekh - you should team up, and together make the FSStory the neatest thing since sliced bread!
I can see it now:
"We present to you a beautiful visual trip through the FreeSpace Universe, in a series of breathtaking renders of all those memorable moments in the FreeSpace games, done by Thunder, Setekh and Carl. Enjoy the ride through history, and don't forget to breathe!"

This is what would be ideal, I won't add anything more to what Setekh and I already decided upon saying - but there it is. I'd think Carl would be a fine addition to our project and heartily hope he accepts.

umm okay, so if i accept will i be joining the team?
p.s. Thunder and Setekh, i'm sorry if i pi$$ed you guys off. i had no idea you were making the exact same thing. i had the idea independently without any knowledge of your project.
-
One more renderer to add to the team. Great! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Great! I'll have a quick chat with Setekh over ICQ or something and work out exactly whats left that we havent covered. If you had some kind of plan for this project then posting it up here would be great, there might be renders of important events we've missed. Any other ideas or anything would be welcome. To tell the truth AFAIK the project is nearing completion but I think theres more we can squize out of it in the coming weeks (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Yay! Everything turns out fine (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

so...when do the pics go in? and more importantly, when am i gonna get a little HLP symbol with a sathanus on it under my name? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

The pics look great and they have great detail. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

By the way, Alpha 1 destroyed the first Sathanus not the Colossus... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I know, but the GTVA records show that it was the Collossus.. They won't give Alpha 1 nearly as much credit as he deserves. They don't want one person to be too popular or the favor of the people might shift to him instead of the government.

Not when, if you become a HLP staffer. You'll notice that hosted people here don't have HLP logos, they are just for us.
-
Yeah, in a project such as this we might consider giving you a title of your choice but it doesn't really constitute joining the staff as your (probably) not going to be doing anything more for us once this is complete, and only hosted site owners or HLP staff get pictures - it keeps the whole thing moving faster and is much more simple to manage.

well then...can i join the staff?

who says? i'd be glad to help out on other stuff.

Like? I'm not trying to be argumentative, I'm just asking.
-
To be honest Carl we don't need another Freespace staffer. If you want to do things for us from time to time then feel free, and you will of course be given credit for what you do. But we really don't need anyone else in FS at the moment, as far as I'm concerned what your doing (at this point) is a one off thing in the form of helping Setekh and myself with the FS Story project. Kudos will be given in that section for you and we'll all go our separate ways. If in the future something comes up and you help/offer to help with it then we'll most likely accept the offer - but we really don't need any new staff.
EDIT: Carl, if you want to talk further about anything feel free to email me and we'll talk there but this isn't really public forum stuff.
