To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow. - Metrodorus of Chios
I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

Re: Just Another Day: Just Another Discussion Thread
I gave the updated mod a spin and I must say that Axem has raised the bar once again. And many would agree with me.

Re: Just Another Day: Just Another Discussion Thread
Okay, I'm really impressed with the Unlimited Laser Works. I don't know how you made it so that it's less accurate as you fire it more, but it's really cool (and frustrating :P).

Re: Just Another Day: Just Another Discussion Thread
Thank you. :) The effect was done with the FOF spread values in the table (though I made the gauge that tells you how large your spread is). I asked SCP for it and apparently it was already in the code base for some time already. (Boy, they work fast)

 
Re: Just Another Day: Just Another Discussion Thread
(Boy, they work fast)

Or just consistently, or on a strict timetable ... just sayin. :p

Also, on the scale of awesomeness I give this mod so far a 100 out of 10.  *looks around nervously as the borrowed awesome-meter smolders in a corner*  You guys did have insurance on that, right?

I think he thought it would make the mod more classic, dramatic and tragic at the same time. :P

Yes, exactly. :) JAD has too much silliness so I needed to add some real literature so there is balance in the mod.

Make an easter egg where if a person happens to hit the right key combo it the text of it is read as mission messages. ;)

That first mission. This is going to be fun.

Later:
The end already? NO. IT CAN'T BE.

You're going to have to try really hard to make an ending better than this. You magnificent bastard.

Re: Just Another Day: Just Another Discussion Thread
I had large amounts of fun playing this mod. Only encountered one issue where I had to skip a mission, but everything else was loads of fun.

Also, I know this is supposed to be a collision between JAD and anime, but I did NOT expect a Japanese dub of YMCA to start playing. :lol:

I've only just opened the main menu and I'm already impressed. Srsly, man. Just from a technical perspective, JAD is a marvel.

Helm, engage FreeSpace Installer.

Spoiler:
EDIT: In the mission where you go after the radio station, if you start from the boss fight checkpoint, after you defeat the boss it starts playing the dialogue from the beginning of the mission and the initial wave of fighters spawns in. I was just able to start fighting them as the mission faded out.

I had a ton of fun throughout pretty much the entire campaign. The writing was funny, the missions were fun to play, and the music was great. I don't have anything to complain about other than a couple bugs that were fixed pretty quickly.

Some specific things I liked:
Spoiler:
The intro, the vn sequence mini-game where you have to find the imposter, the mission where you attack the radio station, the mission where you jump between different points in the system, the use of new world symphony in the optional mission that introduced Henrietta (that mission's also really hard on higher difficulties), the mission where anna shows up (and what happens if you chose not to help her), the music during the boss fight with the eleventh beta tester, and the ending mission and cutscene.

Spoiler:
I also noticed that the acronym for delta 1's over complicated life flowchart would be CASSANDRA

Definitely one of my favorite fs2 campaigns/mods.
