thx mate... i very much appreciate it!

Hey there guys,

Sounds like an awesome project to be involved with, so I thought I might chime in with my experience as a sound engineer/designer.
I've got a degree in recording arts by middlesex university and have worked at SAE (biggest school for audio engineers in the world) as a supervisor, editing soundtracks and speech, designing weir noises, etc

In fact I have a pretty clear idea how to get all the signature sounds we hear in BSG, but I can't post any of the samples I've made right now as I'm in the middle of a move. I'll try to post some in the next 24-48 hours if sleep patterns permit

In any case, awesome job so far, can't wait to play it!

[Colonol Dekker]

I'm sure the team will be eager to sample your umm..............samples

[GVaccari]

Thanks Colonol! 

Here I have some, no big quality or anything but as I said this week is being crazy...

More to come ASAP.

[Mr. R]

Not sure if it's just me but the ZIP file won't even extract the files.  Tried WinRAR and 7zip...

[Angelus]

Yeah, Winrar doesn't work but 7zip works for me.

btw, nice sounds GVaccari!

[GVaccari]

That is weird, but it happens in my computer too! I zipped with 7zip so maybe that's the reason...

And thanks Angelus! In a few days I'm sure I'll be able to post some nice guns and missiles.

Hi guys, This sounds really interesting. Must say i Loved BTRL

I'm a 3D generalist. pretty used to lowpoly/normal mapping unwrapping.. the works

-----

Gimme a PM if your interested

A couple of questions from me if I may, what app are the modelers using, and have you found the collada importer for PCS2 to be usefull?

[Lt.Cannonfodder]

PM sent.

As for what programs we use: whatever the modeler in question prefers, though Max users are a majority. A bit of Modo, Lightwave and zbrush thrown into the mix too.

Just out of curiosity,  is anyone here using a mac? Could you use a mac for any of this?

[Colonol Dekker]

As far as i know there are Mac builds somewhere, but as a non-mac user i couldn't say as to how you go about procuring one.


Random point, what's your Jacket look like and why should i love it

As for coding, no problem.  The SVN pull builds just fine with an included Xcode project description.

Possibly referencing My Morning Jacket maybe?

Modelling and artwork can obviously be done in a Mac. As can coding. Mission design is currently Windows only because FRED hasn't been ported to other platforms (unless you are willing to mission design using a text editor). Model conversion will require Windows until PCS is ported to other platforms (I believe Kazan said work on this has already started or starting soon).

Obviously the game will run on a Mac once finished.

[Colonol Dekker]

Real Fredders use notepad.... everyone knows that.





'Cept when new sexps come out, and i have no idea what they are or what they do. Then i have to break out fred for ten seconds and commit them to memory. Then back to notepad.



j/k

[Rodo]

it's possible to do such thing?¿

There are lot's of sexp's that are not that intuitive and easy to remember and making a mission in the notepad would automatically roll those ones out of your list of choice.

[blowfish]

That's what the wiki is for

[Colonol Dekker]

It lets you Fred at work or school, Or both if you teach at a school.

, I am coming to your forums in the hopes that BSG fans can work together. I am part of a team putting together a BSG mod for sins of a solar empire. Our forum is here (http://www.modcraft.net/community/index.php?showforum=790) if u wanna check it out. I saw that u guys were still in development so I thought this might be a good opportunity for both of our projects to benefit. If you guys are willing I'd like to be able to share 3d models between mods. We have a good number of 3dmodels for ships and stuff already, so we're not coming at you with nothing in our corner. I figure with 2 teams of modders working on producing cool ships we can get way more ships in way less time... Anyways, I'd love to hear from someone in charge to see if it sounds like a workable idea. my email is [email protected] I hope to hear from you guys. Your mod looks pretty damned awesome :-)

we have some pics of the models we got posted up on the public side of the forums, but I can defnitely get u into the private forums if you wanna see the rest of what we got... :-) Good luck guys :-) BSG rocks!
