I've been trying all manner of combination of Einstein, etc. and any random number I can find.

Somehow I think it's more structured and less random.

Yeah, it's definitely something more structured.  I don't know a thing about cryptography, so I couldn't say if this is an example of it, but I get the impression from the comments that Goober has supposedly made that it's not that complex.

And i keep thinking that for now, the Ho*onet is not where the solution is, we might not have use for that password yet...
There must be something else in that post, the reason that the password is there might be to throw us off and distract us from the real thing, or the password is not even a password and it's something else as the title says "not as it appears" .... /me suffers a brain meltdown and shuts off for a while

Damn the GTI for having it so. . . so. . . classified! Goober and Galemp are probably the masterminds behind the GTI rebellion itself!

I did find the Vasudan Translation page, which contains a Vasudan Font File, which could be very useful...

The Error on the Translation page also includes a lot of numbers, any of which could be important.

Double-post. :D

I've just run the capital letters through an anagram server and I got this: http://wordsmith.org/anagram/anagram.cgi?anagram=UGASEWACRERT&language=english&t=0&d=&include=&exclude=&n=&m=&source=adv&a=n&l=n&q=n&k=1

That Vasudan font looks nice.

No, that's an extremely old render out of Setekh's Array.  It's obviously about Silent Threat, but not the Reborn flavor.

Turey, mind sharing how you stumbled across that page?  Blind luck, or was there a reference buried away somewhere?

Just a thought... isn't 1.2mb rather large for a 900x500 image? It has to be completely uncompressed (tried resaving at an extremely low compression rate and it went down to 570k, with no visible quality loss even at 1000% zoom), which makes me wonder if it's the -image- that is not as it appears.

Yeah well...if any of you get the hints, you might also want to note that WinRAR can't help you here. Or at least it didn't for me. :p

I found a nice FSPort Weapons VP on the GTW-99 Railgun page, but doesn't look like there's anything related to solving the problem in there...

Damn. I keep finding all sorts of cool things, but nothing that helps me solve the problem!

EDIT: Alright, I feel stupid. So what do we do with these two new files?

The railgun archive appears to actually contain all the hi-poly tech room models for the freespace 1 missiles.

That's kind of cool to have...

EDIT: So we have a probe picture that appears to show one Cain/Lilith, a Demon and a few fighters and two Azrael transports.
