Title: The (glorious) return.
Post by: Rictor on November 24, 2007, 10:25:43 pm
Jeez, it's been more than 6 months. Circumstances conspired to keep me away, and I also just had to take a little break.

So, what did I miss?

Surprisingly nothing.  There hasn't been a whole lot going on here over the past few months. 

You could check the highlights to see any of the new FS-related stuff, but as for General Discussion zainy-ness and crazy-ity, nothing.

I assume that statues have by now been erected in to commemorate the terrible loss that my absence has caused. How many statues exactly, and of what material? I'm fine with bronze or solid gold, but marble tends to be cheap and crumble easily.

No statues, unfortunately. The only lasting mark you left was the incredible amount of confetti and streamers spread everywhere the day after you disappeared.

Your perseverance in the face of overwhelming apathy has warmed my heart. Welcome back, comrade!

In other words, normal maps are slowly making an appearance. Go to "Recent Builds", find the latest of Taylor's XT builds and download the Limited Edition normalmap-pack to make some of the ships have normal maps.

Oh, and Darius released a new campaign/mod called Blue Planet, which had a good reception. And Beyond the Red Line Demo was patched. Aside from that I can't think of much else. Welcome back (I wonder if someone will now change Sarafan's user title? :lol:)!

Porn circulation within the FreeSpace community declined rapidly in your absence.
