Well, I finally summed up the losses of my HDD moving to the great case beyonnd.

They are quite serious. While I recovered a lot, what it lost is no caughing matter:

HLT Demon
HTL Typhon
HTL Athena
HTL Phoenix
SDF-1 Soldier mode & dedalus attack - lost both the finished POF and the scenes
high detailed veritechs
Large starbase (textured model)
Asteroid installation
Several new ship I was making
Vasudan Starbase
WH40K Terminator & Commander models for Dawn of War

All weapons for the KOTOR2 mod except for the greatsabers
3DMax scenes set up for animations (all I had to do is a few last tweaks and hit the renbder bottun):
- asteroid belt fighter chase
- sith attack on corrusant
- final fleet battle
- D-wing escape

The whole EV:Nova mod (maby I can find someone who has the OLD version of it)

My own JA2 mod (mostly a few weapons)

And probably a few more things I can't even remember.

I started work on the HTL stuff again from scratch...which reminds me - where can I get that terran cockpit model?
I can extract from one of hte HTL models, but I want the one where the pilot isn't merged with the cockpit.

F*ck!  Really makes one wish that online backup services didn't cost a hundred bucks a year.

[achtung]

I say external hard drive.

[Mars]

External Hard Drive FTW!

In order to put the contents of my hdb (my non system hdd) online, I'd need to encrypt the entire damn thing

HLT Demon

HLT = Hard Light Tragedies ? 

[Speeder]

oh, c'mon, archive everything to DVD... That's cheapest and that won't just vanish :\

[Mefustae]

HTL Typhon

Noooooooooooooooo!![/Vader]

I found a backup version of the old htl typhon, but it will require a lot of work.
I also found the old htl athena model but again the older version without the cockpit. I already started redoing it. And in a few hours I'll have a little surprise for you!

p.s. where the hell can i find that cockpit model?

[TrashMan]

Dang.. It seems I also lost that great TS plugin which shows you the scene hierarcy and let's you drag and drop things (I even forgot how it was called).
I've been searching for it on the net, but havn't found it...

Does anyone know where I can get it?... that, and the cockip+pilot model.

[karajorma]

You use TS 5 right?

Well for anything above TS3.2 PI-SceneTool is what you want.

[TrashMan]

I can't see it on the tool list.

Someone here on the forums must still have that plug in in his Truespace TSX folder.
I think the plugin was trueview (I can't recall dammit!).

So if anyone has it PLASE send it to me

EDIT: And yeah - teh cockpit modle - I've looked all over for it! Where the hell is it?

[Tyrian]

Is this it?  I use TS 3.2, so this might be it...

Truview is good for 3.2 but for anything above that you want SceneTool as it's just ever so slightly better

Unfortunately it looks like Primative Itch have quit taking the download of SceneTool with them. I'll have a look see if I can find my copy in a bit.

Comisserations about that. I know you don't want to hear this but I've never had any hard drive crashes. Ever. I gotta say I'm expecting one at some stage soon cause I'm using a few drives for backup that were previously dodgey OS disks. But I got the stuff on em on hard copy, they're just for quick loading.

[TrashMan]

Yeah...at the time of hte chrash my burner wasn't functionaing properly. I had 2 HDDs and was about to make a backup but I was late for a bus so I moved it for later... fatal mistake

Now I have a secondary disk in a USB case and a new DVD burner so I guess I should be OK from now on

Thanks for hte Trueview

[Speeder]

I've had a filesystem crash once, back in DOS days... There was a blahblah named folder in the root dir... When I entered into it, there was xactly the same there! blahblah folder and all others... That was chained... Then I pressed delete on the top most blahblah, it started to delete everything on my HDD

EDIT: Oh, yea, my old 40GB HDD is broke too, but that's cuz I've opened it cuz the comp didn't allways recognize it, then apperently it couldn't take that

This is usually caused by a loose cable... it took me a long time to figure out that I needed to push that IDE ribbon in harder.

[TrashMan]

Oh yeah! Got the Athena back in shape
UV mapping the craft will take some time dough.


As you can see, the pilot model is still missing. Where can I download it?

[TrashMan]

WHERE CAN I FIND THE COCKPIT AND PILOT MODEL??
