Title: A Pilot's nightmare (fs2)
Post by: vyper on July 10, 2002, 07:54:29 am

This is a work in progress, and I'm looking for idea's of what other 'bits' to add to it.
I kinda got inspiration for this after playing the Derelict mission where you have the nightmare about seeing the Sathanas. I began thinking what a pilot who had survived the Capella nova and the battles leading up to it would have had nightmares about.

I like it, very well done. Wouldn't be too nice to be that pilot. :p
 
I especially liked the part that Colossus says that just get the Bastion through and Bastion's nameplate is floating there... :lol:

I think this would be greatly improved if everything except the Sathanas had transparency applied to it. Right now it looks like everything is just floating there; transparency would make it look like they were dreams/memories/hallucinations while the reality of the Sathanas would jump out at you.

Scary looking one... I got a feeling that the small images on the edges could be flashbacks which the pilot gets when facing the Sathanas... you know... "in the moment of death your life runs through you eyes"

But I think it's just you, did you copy and paste as said. You shouldn't click the link but copy it and then paste it to address bar. :)

If you mean the favorits folder than I already did that. I went into Explorer and pasted it that way.
 Did I do it right ?

I don't know if you did... but it should also work that you type that address to the address bar, don't click the link. But easy way is to copy (click and hold mouse and drag it over the link and release, CTRL+insert) and then paste (SHIFT+insert) it to the address bar.
 
Hope that helps... :lol:
