Hi, Im trying to get in touch with the guy that made the really good FS2 screensaver and was wondering if he ever hangs out here.

Not anymore that I know of. I'm not sure what happened to him. Although, I would like to see him pump out a version that works for XP. :D

It is here on HLP as far as I know, and is the best ScreenSaver ever! For those of you that don't know, it consists of FS ships flying in from either side of the screen, and blasting each other with beams, while fighters dart bewtween them, blowing each other up and getting shredded by flak. However, it slows down on my machine! (Althon XP 1600, 256meg etc)

Yes, shame about the XP problems. It's a mighty fine screensaver, alright. Still, I'm using that SETI one now. I've discovered three alien civilzations already :cool:

Would the screensaver still be on the forums by any chance?
Imagine awakening, and hearing the heartbeat of the galaxy for the first time.
It is like a cloud, a mist that drifts from living creature to creature, set in motion by currents and eddies.
It is the eye of the storm, the passions of all living things turned into energy, into a chorus.
It is the rising swell at the end of life, the promise of new territories and new blood, the call of new mysteries in the dark.

I have never seen this thread before and have no idea what sort of screen saver is searched for. :nervous:

I think that random bot who resurrected the "Interesting Mission Names" thread a couple months ago wins the duration of necromancy title.  Unless he got removed, in which case I guess I hold the title. :nervous:

And I thought random tiger, petrarch, and diamondgeezer came back........ :(
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside
