Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
Which is the correct ending, staying on the GTVA side or joining the Sol side? I'm guessing staying on the GTVA  side.
The whole point of BWO is that there isn't a right or wrong ending. So I'm assuming neither.

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
They are both correct.

They are both wrong.

This ain't canon.

 
Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
More questions!

So BWO is something that ties up a number of campaigns?

Can i get a couple of good pictures of the Charon? i found some old model called charon, and i wanna make sure they're not the same...





Sig nuked! New one coming soon!

The Charon is a project classified Level Omega.

Do you really think we'd give you pictures of it? Or even put them on our website?

What would you say is the percentage of models still required to be upgraded to HTL standards?

I don't know. Raven maybe would.

I'm gonna go and say "half". Seems like the safe answer.

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
From a modelling standpoint, yes half. I expect that to go down to 30% left by the end of september, since I'll be able to do stuff during the summer.

From a texturing\convertion standpoint, i'd say about 80% left.

Why you wanna model? :D
Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?


Raven is a god.

I hope the relase won't be delayed only because of the models... :doubt:

Oh no.

It's already being delayed only because of the models.

Well, that and the voice acting, but models take priority and murder your point.

Describe your Charon.

 
Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
it's like a tube, with rotating disks, theres this yellow, crystal-like texture on the inside, and a black texture on the outside. and of course, rotating stuff, but theres lined up, they don't all interscect eachother.

EDIT: just remembered, it's the one from the 158th Test modeldump.

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
You really need to take a hint about me mentioning the website when it comes to an image of the Charon.

And yes Mobius, missions are 100% ready at last check. They need voices and final testing though. And the main thing - HTLed ships (low poly ships are in there though, we got all of those).

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
Have you ever planned to release the campaign without voice acting and high-poly models?

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
Heh, I found it (the Charon) :P. Its the Alliance Jump Gate/GTI Melia equivalent, and looks accordingly...

We considered it.

Decided against it.

Don't start that again.

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
No, really, what's so wrong in releasing the campaign not voiced and with low poly ships? I mean, just look at campaigns like Inferno, SAH or BP. They're not voiced, the models are low poly ( only some of them are low poly in SAH and BP though ), but the campaigns are great. It's the story and mission design/FREDing that's the most important.
