Double post. I'm a whore.

wohoo. he is going ot help.
this will rock.
we can convert that and improve upon it. wohoo.
This mod was tight but was SOOO much heavier on the resources than just the game and it made the memory leak that much more apparent.
If I had experience with this I'd help, as it stands, have fun and give us progress reports!

(ps: the EAW engine is almost the same damn thing as the Generals engine so I'd cut him some slack. If it moves and has sprites, it's possible.)

No offense but didn't Eternal D get hosed on this exact lot? =/

<<< see the icon.
'Nuff said.

I'd definitely take a YF-19. Maybe 2 depending on the price.
However I am curious....what kit are you bashing/resculpting/recasting for this?

I am happy with anything below $220.
And to reiterate UN Spacy's question: Are these going to be limited?
If so I am buying 19 more. I want a new car.

BBTS is roughly $211 shipped for the collectors grade.
Works for me.

I just preordered a Stealth from bbts. It will be my first 1/48.
Anyone have an extra 1S head lying around willing to do a custom for me? lol
Wasn't someone doing recasts awhile back?
Anyway, the low viz is eh to me. Never been a big fan of jungle-like camo on planes. I mean, who has ever heard of a flying forest? o.o;;
Love the stealth tho. Might end up getting more than one.

Except he take orders from Tarkin in the original film.
If owning the 6 films on DVD and growing up in the Star Wars generation makes me a "Star Wars Geek", well, I guess I'm guilty.
Now, I realize that you're part of the "Lucas craps pure gold" crowd. But, if you really think that Lucas always intended us to view Vader this way, then you're just waaay too far gone into fanboyism for anyone to help you.You realized wrong. Being that you're part of the "his hands are too small" crowd, I know there is little chance to reason with you. And you might want to go back a bit in this thread, and read what I was actually saying instead of assuming.
The fact still remains, Guinness was 62, no matter how old you thought he looked.
Pwnt.

So it's safe to assume you think every movie ever made has to be on par with "insert favotite movie name here" ? (kind of annoyed so can't really think of a stellar movie at the moment)
Why is it so hard to believe that people who actually are intelligent like movies like this? It's simple, action filled (read hot chick and gun) nonsense that lets us kill 2 hours. Why does every movie have to be an award winner and filled with an awesome plot? Why can't it just be a movie?
-
So that means with those two kits anyone can make the variable. Those are identical to the two main Exo Force models we can get here. I just saw the ones neded at Wal-Mart.
That's tight.

I scored a new Shadow Alpha from Gamestop for $9.99 this weekend.
I had ordered one a while back when it first came out but it took forever to transfer from another store. So the manager transferred one from a different store. (Which was cool that it took so long, because by the time it came it was down to $39.99.)
Well I went in this weekend to buy Resident Evil 4, and the manager told me that the other one finally showed up. She still had it sitting under the counter. It rang up as $19.99 and I had a $10.00 off coupon
So I just had to buy it....
Yeah. I just bought the 4 our GS had left. They were all sitting in the clearance bin. 4 for the retail of 1. I am happy.

It isn't one of their announcements.
It's a leak.
Bet a lot of you didn't know over half of the SoE SWG staff (uncluding devs and forums administrators.) quit/fired because they wanted nothing to do with the NGE.
As far as the "general public" will be concerned SWG is the best MMO ever because of the propaganda SoELA is throwing forth into the world.. As fas as we who know, it's dead.
30k+ cancellations in less than a month...
You figure it out.

Saturday, friend of mine pops on.
Lysis - Yo!
Hikuro - What's up?
Lysis - Hey since you like SW's, you ever played SWG?
Hikuro - Ummm, oh SWG, no...I heard mixed reviews and always revamping the game.
Lysis - Yeah, but this latest update is fantastic! You can be a Jedi without going thru all the crap! Which sucks for me cause I did go thru all the crap.
Hikuro - Oh....guess that's pretty cool.
Lysis - You should join up!
Hikuro - Yeah but I gotta pay. And I'm already paying 13 for FFXI...and hardly play.
Lysis - Yeah, and its basically 15 for SWG....but its cool! And we can play together!
Hikuro -.......I'll get it Monday.....
Lysis - Just go to the SWG site and download it! 10 day trail!
Hikuro - Rather have 30 day...cause 10 ain't gonna persuade me enough.
So Monday, keepin my promise, went to Fry's cause its the closest, found the starterkit for 19.99 went home, about the second disk it starts acting up saying "Wrong Vol. in drive need SWG_SK_1" so I thought maybe I just need to put disc 1 back in. Nope, everything went to hell.
Went back to Fry's spent an hour over there, find out Discs 2 and 4 got distortion so they wont work. So I went thru 5 or 6 boxes finally found 2 and 4 that looked okay.
I go home, pop in and reinstall, same damn message appears. But this time I got SWG icon on my desktop and on my start program.
So I start her up, loads, I register, signed in, and now I'm doing a 16 hour update and I'm on freaking DSL 0_o
So him and I are thinkin its filling in the missing data and updating into the latest version.
I contacted SOE, but I wont hear anything for a while........bbbbbllllllooows if I knew this was gonna happen I'd said forget it.
Yeah. All fine and dandy to be a Jedi right out of the box. 2+ years of the game being how it was. Promises and more promises. Update after update. nerf after nerf then they rip out the entire chat/movement/combat system and put something new in in order for it to be easily playable on the next gen consoles. OH YEAH.
Oh and don't waste your money. All the servers are being shut down in Mid february.

A lot to read, maybe it's been asked...
Is it correct to have the turbines blocked while in battroid?
I thought it was still using the turbines since it didn't have a reactor yet?
Looks nice though.

You guys are AMAZING. The guys who made them, build them, paint them. ALL of you.
I wish I had a single ounce of the talent you guys show.
Truly baffling.

Honestly, my bad. I see it now. I guess my search is borked.
I didn't mean to double it up.

Gah.
Try just searching for this item #

It's there...I think. =(

Wasn't quite sure what to search for and couldn't find it. If this is the wrong forum I am sure I will be smited into compliance as well.
Enjoy.
Fixed link.

That hurt to watch but God damn was that tight. Good work.

But all was not well! I can only see part of the image. After tinkering with various settings, I've determined that my video card has no support for widescreen resolutions.
Rather than write it off as a pipe dream or wishful thinking, I've decided to replace my video card.
I was under the impression that most widescreen TVs had an inverse-letterbox mode for the proper display of 4:3 images. There a reason you can't do that instead?
first of all, don't get the cable from wal-mart. get the ar one at bestbuy and the quality is much better. trust me, it work pretty good on my dlp.It works pretty good. So would a ratty pile of 20-year-old speaker wire.
We're dealign with DIGITAL signals here. Line quality is MEANINGLESS.
Your signal is perfect or non-existant. There IS NO in-between.
EVEN if that mattered, what store the cable came from is not important, merely the brand.
second, if you video has less than 258mb of ram, don't try any resolution other than vga but i maybe wrong. i like newegg a lot, and the shipping is really fast.You are indeed wrong. It doesn't take much RAM at all to get the GUI past 640*480*8. Not even a meg.
third, if you are running window xp, you can set from display properties the use wide screen. otherwise, your only choice is 4:3.Again you're wrong. My 2k and 98 boxes BOTH have the option of non-4:3 ratios.
Hell, even before it was an OS Windows supported non-4:3 resolutions.
1280*1024 springs to mind as one that virtually everything supports.
It's got very little to do with the OS, and a whole lot to do with video chipset and drivers.
lastly, the dvi out from the video card is for moniter, you can connect it to the tv's dvi port or the 15 pins video port. hdmi can only be use to input hd signal, upconvert dvd, turner, etc.. unless you get a high end card with hd output, which i don't know of one, but i'm sure they exist. or you can just switch a mac or a unix box.Wrong AGAIN. DVI and HDMI carry EXACTLY the same digital video signals. They are ELECTRICALLY IDENTICAL for this task.
FURTHERMORE, HDMI accepts any signal of the appropriate encoding format, not just HDTV signals.
480i, while not HD in the least, is accepted through HDMI. You can even get signals GREATER THAN HD through an HDMI connector, though the odds that your specific TV is capable of dealing with them are somewhat low(possible, but not probable).
ANY video card capable of going past 1024*768 has HD output. HD just means the image has 720 or 1080 lines of resolution. Nothing special there at all.
If you have a TV with RGBHV inputs, you can buy a VGA->BNC cable and use that on ANY video card with an analog VGA connector. OR a VGA->BNC and DMI->VGA.
But most TVs don't have RGBHV. They usually have component, DVI, and/or HDMI. If you go overseas they have RGBHV, but not through the 5BNC setup I was talking about. So it's fortunate we're dealing with DVI and HDMI here.
As far as the 15-pin video port, that's a standard VGA connector. BUT DVI ALSO carries analog VGA signals on it. So AGAIN it's a matter of a small adapter.
And how in the hell would changing OSes from Windows to Linux fix the absurd hardware limitations you claim exist(which, fortunately for enthusiasts everywhere, do not)?
That is all.
I love a man who know the whole over yonder isn't his ass.
Anyway...not all cards higher than the GT are PCIe. I am currently running a 6800 ultra agp. (much) More expensive than it's PCIe counterpart but it exists.
If you're not a hardcore gamer a 6800 anything is too much. It's a waste of cash. If you just want something the supports all newer drivers and DX 9.c get a 5500 with 256 onboard. It's an inexpensive card that does everything. I think the only two games I couldn't play on it were Far Cry and BF 2. HL2 ran just fine. Quit telling him to get something he doesn't need.
And a shameless plug for me....I have above card available for $75. Lol

Yang Newman was his name although I probably spelled his name right.
Like azrael said above it was an optional configuration. Newman installed the seat so he could accompany isamu to Earth.

What's that? The FAST pack version?
And come on guys, as long as the cause is good, what's $5? I am down.
