Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
Val, concerning girlfriends. Why, yes you did. There exact number shall remain anonymous. Let's just say there are enough to make a two(2) week tour through them, before a repeat!!

As a dedicated lurker, all I have is time!!! Time well spent with a few very smart, nice and delectable honeys!!!

BMP's, I use DOGA, to start. When I finish, load them into a PhotoShop "type" editor to convert them, resize, and clean them up a tad. I have been looking for a better way. Have 100's of designs. Some in file form, others just in my head waiting to made. Stopped making models, because the BMP's aren't very good.

Raging Deadstar,

Sorry, I will cut it down to a LURKERS dozen (fourteenv (14) or so). Now as to VAL's 1,000 TH post. A party to end ALL PARTIES. A party of untold proportions. Going to make the PLAYBOY MANSION parties look WEAK!!!!

OH YEAH!!!

Kamog,

I never actually said, FOURTEEN (14). I said; "I will cut it down to a LURKERS dozen (fourteen (14) or so)."

SURE, I can give you a little advise!! You are on the right track about probably needing to leave the house. Although you could sign up for one of Internet Dating services. Just have ALL the lucky applicants reply in person to your home address!!

If you decide that leaving the house is a better route to take. Try hanging out at the supermarket, in the produce section. You will be AMAZED at the results!! REALLY!

Book stores are a pretty good place. The problem with them I have found is, those ladies hanging out there are not always in the section, of books that interests them. They are cruising, TOO! But other than that, they are a great place for meeting BABES!

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
The real surprise at the bookstore is when the girl turns out to be in that section because she's buying a book for her boyfriend!

Could help you out with the DoGA BMPs if you like, been a bit busy as of late between work projects, B5 Mod and personal time - but hey, gotta keep the lurkers happy http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

What process are you currently doing to make the BMPs? Do you go into Photoshop and just tweak the pic or do you use photoshop to make the background black? What Version of DoGA? Do u use textures? If you want to send, post some I'd love to see 'em.

Usually I do a render in DoGA and then copy and paste it into PSP7 and do any tweaks (like running lights) then save.

If you are interested in trying your hand at a complete set based on some canon material we could use a few more sets over on the B5 Mod, I can send you top down scans of ships...

Val,

Yeah, I can only imagine your surprise. I was in one of my favorite haunts (cruising), got site of a amazing looking lady. Check it out for a few minutes, started my rap, WHAM, the boyfriend comes around the corner, with that unmistakable look of KILL, in his eyes. I said ma me might you point in the direction of the iceberg lettuce? First time I bought iceberg lettuce. WHEW!!

I would appreciate any help you are willing to give. Whenever it is possible. You can put it on the back burner, if you need. I do realize you have afew irons in the fire. Ah yes, need to keep the LURKERS happy.

I have DOGA 2 (soon to be DOGA 3). I use textures, asst. colors and effects, i.e., metallic, glass, shine, etc. I could send you a zip file of some ships. Yes, and at present all I do is load them in PSP7, or Real-DRAW Pro, and just tweak them. Sucks!!

I know how to render in DOGA. However I don't know how to render, cut, and paste the rendered model. How do you make image the right size??

I would be very interested in trying my hand at a complete set. Even just some canon material. You can email me the scans, and I will get right on it.

VAL, THANKS so much for the help. I have been sitting here going crazy, with all this designs in my head.

I am working on some Race portraits, as well. Just started working with gels!!

As PF said, it is a breeze in DoGA 3, download the free Version of DoGA 3 and you will be in heaven!

I did a lot of work in DoGA 2 before moving up and it was a royal pain. One of the best I came up with was doing a print (hit ctrl-Print Screen) screen and pasting it into PSP7/Photoshop. Get 3 ASAP! Much easier.

Yeah, send 'em on over to me either in a private message or to b5mod@yahoo.com - though that box might be full tonight if PF is working in overdrive again http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
pathfinder, Thanks, loads!!. You are correct, it is much easier in DOGA 3.

VAL,

Got DOGA 3. Now to start, kicking some stuff out. OH, LOOK OUT WORLD. I did send you a zip.. Actually, I sent two(2). The first one lacked the attachment. NO HARM at all looking. Sure am glad cretins don't usually read minds! And bye the bye, the ICEBERG babe and I did hook-up several days later, at the student Union Bldg.

If you would, could you send me those top down scans of ships you were talking about? You can email them to me. mlmbd@yahoo.com

Kamog, as long as you remember to ask. A really surprising thing is how a 6'11", 380 lb, moron Neanderthal (ah, excuse me, i digress) can effect your memory, and your speech!!

And I am giving SERIOUS thought to advice thread. I SAID serious thought, not necessarily all serious answers!!

mlmbd http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Val November 13th, 2002 05:55 AM

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
DoGA 3 makes it much easier to kick it out, I'm sure we'll be seeing ship sets from you in no time!

Did you send it to B5Mod@yahoo.com ? I don't see it if you did. Right now the box is pretty clean, has over 2Megs of space open. Try to resend.

I'll scan in the pics this weekend, but they are pretty much top down silhouettes, so they are not very detailed.

You are irrepressable, where do you find the time to lurk, play SE and still have time for the honeys? I have had more than enough trouble juggling work, SE and a chick.

I think a dating advise thread could be a rather entertaining, can only imagine what we might hear, topics like - "How to keep your mate happy, while conquering the galaxy" and "10 ways to tell if the girl of your dreams can be converted to a SE junkie" (or the alternate title "how to Mod your girlfriend in 10 easy steps"). Maybe a few Posts from the married guys on how to keep a family and still crank out a dozen shipsets in as many days (along with AI - PF http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif ).

Kamog November 13th, 2002 07:25 AM

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
Yes, a huge moron Neanderthal can indeed affect one's memory and speech. If my speech and memory fail me, I'll just have to revert to turning around 180 degrees (that's pi radians) and running away really fast. The problem is that a pretty, blonde-haired, blue eyed girl can also affect my speech and memory, even when there is no Neanderthal around!

mlmbd November 13th, 2002 08:44 AM

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
VAL,

I sent them to another email address. I just sent the zip. to the B5Mod@yahoo.com. They are all before DOGA 3. So tomorrow they will all look different.

The scans will be fine it will give me a idea of what you are looking for. There is no hurry, I realize you are real busy. So as soon as you get to them it will be great. I will make a couple and then see if they are indeed what you are looking for.

I have more than enough time to lurk, play SE, to some ship modeling, and still have time for the honeys. Irrepressible, not hardly. I'm just very efficient with my time!!

An ADVICE thread. The more I think about it, the better I like it. Rather entertaining, at the very least. There is no telling the things that might come UP, pun intended.


Kamog,

If your speech and memory fail you. No need to run. Just look him SQUARE IN THE EYE and say, "OOOOOOW you are a handsome one". Being dump-founded by a pretty, blonde-haired, blue eyed girl. Is not unique. Just take alittle time getting use to talking to them. After that all the rest is PRETTY easy. Really!

I didn't know what doozie means so I looked it up.

Quote:

doo·zy or doo·zie
n. Slang pl. doo·zies
Something extraordinary or bizarre: "Among the delicious names taken by, or given to, minor political parties in the United States... are these doozies: Quids, Locofocos, Barnburners, Coodies, Hunkies, Bucktails"
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Huh? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif I still don't understand what it means...

Ragnarok November 22nd, 2002 08:34 PM

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
Here is how I liken "Doozie"
I use it in the context of something that is great.
"It's going to be a Doozie of a story" could also be written "It's going to be a great story"

Or it could also be "amazing"
"It's going to be a amazing story"
Those are just some ways of using the word "doozie" in place of something.

So in summery "doozie" is something Grand, Great, Amazing, Extraordinary, etc...

Hope that helps..

COMMENTARY; Art is an amazing thing. Everyone has an opinion. No matter the back ground they are from. It it not measured or appreciated by the level of ones educational level, or academic pursuits. It simple is what is, one individuals perception, if you will one persons vision, into the soul of his model. It make no difference what or who the model is. It maybe a landscape, a sculpture, a still life, a photographic image of anything or an abstract design. It is this view, that artist gives to us! Like I said it (Art) is amazing, in any form. So have, by all means have your opinions. Please do. But also try not to be little the art. Or the artist. After all, they did supply us with their vision! A beautiful thing, from where I sit. I apologize for length. But I Thank You, for listing!!

Anyone that wants an avatar, just let me know!

Excellent report, mlmbd http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif ! It certainly is a doozie! That's a very comprehensive presentation of the activities that are going on.

By the way, I thought lurkers just read other people's Posts and never post themselves... but your contributions have been quite substantial and valuable in this forum! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Gees you slave away night after night programming and finally get a new Version of your program posted and it gets missed by the lurk report. Apparently less relevent than than some guy making his first post about some mysterious expansion pack. Boohoohoo. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

(PS Yea I am just kidding you. It's pretty impressive the way you keep up with all the Posts (well most of them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif )

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 
Kamog, I THANK YOU! LURKER'S are reader's, not poster's. BUT, I am a wanta be NON LURKER with closet poster tendencies.

Raging Deadstar, it is not suppose to be pronounced. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif It is a pseudonym. This is going to date me. It comes from an idea I got from the Smother' Brothers, Tommy Smothers was always saying to his brother Dick; "Mom loved you best, Dickie". In my Version it is "Mom Loves Me Best Dude".

Hadrian Tyrael S., see above. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif THANK YOU, I do appreaciate all the comments!

DavidG, there is absolutley no excuse for my blunder. BAD mlmbd http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif , BAD mlmbd http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif , BAD, BAD, BAD!! OK??
The problem with not getting it right, is you don't have a specific thread or topic with your name associated with it. So I got as close as I could. I am REALLY SORRY, though. If you will send me PM or email with link or thread you want everyone to follow your SE4Modder ver 1.60, I will post it!! Hope that makes up for the blunder, at least a little !!
