Bumpski!
We're still here! LUrking and hiding in darkness untill SE V comes along...

Hisses Back Vile Shadows!!! Back to the rim!!!

Be careful Timstone, if Fyron was once a Vorlorn that makes you in trouble.

Better call your Associates Mr. Pampercity

Hahaha... I'm not a Shadow, Shadows are such pussies. I'm a human. And we kick ***! I'll show those First Borns some things to wet their pants for. Here have some undiluted plasma up your ***!

Yes, I am bumping this thread, and for something not really on topic either.

Has anyone else tried the fangame "Babylon 5:I've Found Her: Danger and Opportunity"? It has been released a few months ago, but I saw no reference to it in this thread. Basically, it is a space simulation, much meaner than, say, Freespace 2 (which serves as the platform for the other Babylon 5 space sim project) in terms of accessibility. So the standard procedure of "Click on setup.exe, use the manual to lit a fire and play the game straight way" might not be such a good idea this case.

If you are interested, be warned the game weights more than 200 mo, and is supposedly fairly short (I cannot tell, as I am still attempting to flight the Starfury, let alone survive one flight). So here you are! Hopefully, you will have more luck than I do.

Just so everyone knows, the ongoing pbw game is progressing nicely, though very slow development of planets is rather....annoying

I downloaded it but it would crash everytime it ran. So i never got to play it But my friend loves this game and spends hours on it. I'm getting some more RAM for my birthday so i'll see when i install it if the game wouldn't run from a lack of memory. (My RAM ammount is pathetic, 126mb at time of writing)

That would be quite likely indeed (my computer could use some more "firepower" to run this game). Do you know if your graphic card works well with OpenGL? It seems to be another common problem with this game; do not ask me what cards support OpenGL or not though.

Thanks for the link, but I believe someone else gave the link to the forum some time ago.
I DL'ed the game straightaway and tested it once (I don't have that much time). It started alright and flew great. I really liked it. The only thing I didn't like are the models. They're not complex enough. They could use some more detail. Fortunately I discovered that I DL'ed an early Version with not all the umpfh included in the Last Version. Because I have more than enough power behind my screen, I didn't have any problem with the highest settings.

Oh yeah, and the reason that this thread has somewhat fallen to the bottom of this highly esteemed forum, is because the main players in the making of the successor of the B5 Mod have decided to wait untill SE V comes along. Reasons are time, RL and the will to complete this HUGE mod. If someone else want to take a go at this mammoth task, he/she is welcome to try it.
Untill SE V is here we (the makers of the next B5 Mod) will remain largely silent. Sorry if this doesn't sound that professional, but it's the best we can do at the moment.

I was checking out a dvd website, when I saw the news that all 13 episodes of Crusaders will be coming out soon on dvd. Forgot the date, but I think it was before Christmas. Just thought you'd like to know.

[Timstone]

It will be christmas in America, but that will be next year here in Europe. I'm waiting for about 6 months now for the 5th season B5. After that all the movies from B5 will come out on DVD as well, so add another 8 months.
It really sucks that it takes so rediculus long for a DVD to come out here in Europe.
It really makes me very mad!
