Well this sucks.  This was the other mod (besides TBP) that I was most looking forward to.  I always wanted to see these ships in action in the FS2 engine.

If I had the skills and the time, I would offer my help.  Unfortunately, it looks like it would be pointless even if I did have the skills.  I can FRED fairly well, and I do have some modeling skill in 3ds Max 7, but not a lot.  I've never actually finished a model I've started, but I got lots of fanciful starship models in various stages of completion.

I hate it when dead projects cling on to their stuff.

Back to TAP, seems only Pyro has been working on this recently (as far as I could tell). Grug disappeared, as did Dark Knight not long after taking leadership.
TBH I lost interest when the emphasis shifted to HW2 as I despised the sequel.

Good of HLP to warn those of us (that are still around) of our "relocation".....

Actually, this is our way of warning you. :p

Last time we moved TAP to the archive section, there was a minor uproar and a few complaints by various project members, so we moved it back.  This time, there's a lot of hand-wringing, but no indication that people are still committed to the project.

So, sorry to say, this mod looks like it's dead. :(

Classic example when project leads move on and others try to continue, me thinks.  :doubt:

There just wasn't enough members with regular contributions. Even before the move to HW2... :(

Over time with numerous hard drive losses, moving on members, and a general lack of interest in modding anything in FS it just slowed to a crawl.
It's sad its taken so long, there was a lot of nice ideas but there are too few people who were able to help out with the modelling. :(

Maybe the guys remaining may pull it off eventually. :)
