Of course not...you'll get those exe files again...just click on them and you should have new ships, sounds, music, missions, etc.

Ok, what size am I looking at for the release 2 bearng in mind I already have the core files etc from the first release?

Need to know cos I only have a 56k modem and can't spend all my time downloading a 100MB + mod etc.

I don't know how that will be handled this time. I guess we make one more big package that contains release 1 and 2...but again different update packs for the people who already have R1...the core files will contain the ships, missions, sounds and voices again. But anis and music update will come seperately. As I said I don't know for sure....wait until IceFire checks here....he's in command.

I can't say anything about the file size now...but definately not a small 5 meg thing

We'll probably provide an all in one download pack along with updates for what we already have provided you with.

There is a music update, new sounds and effects.  The core will once again be models and textures and so on...but you already have all of the interface materials so the update will be smaller than the core that you've already downloaded.  And sounds won't be getting too much bigger in any of the releases because you already have most of the major sounds (we're just adding a few guns in the next releases so thats miniscule compaired to the entire sound environment that you've already gotten).

Rest assured, we'll have different options.

And with the source code out, we can now have even cooler battles.

MAX beams giving fire is 40 at any one time. Tweaking that a bit, but I don’t think i ever saw more than 12-15 beams giving fire at the same time, in somewhat normal scenarios

But i did however load up an sathana vs. sathana with all out beams and put in repeat counts for all turrets to fire at the same time, and noticed that not all weapons where giving fire. Now I know the reason. MAX_BEAMS 40.

It was RELEASE 1 WITH A DEMO CAMPAIGN!!!!!

I understand, but you don't understand what I meant.

Yes, the campaign was a demo, so was the release itself more or less. R1 will be always just a demo in my eyes, whatever you say.

R2 is much more closer what we and fans does want from the TBP than R1 "demo" is.

BS, neither you or me is right or wrong, it is a matter of own opinion.
