  1. You can watch Episodes 21-25 (Season Three aka "Volume Two", 75 minutes long total) at: http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/promos/200503_starwars/ the server is twitchy and depending on the time of day you go there you may get weird results. Just keep trying, eventually you'll get through.
  2. I liked it, I finally saw it Saturday night (episodes 1-25) - what is this season three? I thought there were only two seasons, and then the sequel, RotS Much, much better than either Phantom Menace or AotC. I'm not a fan of that style of animation either, but the story was strong and my impression was that there seemed to be less "eye candy" and more dialog (maybe because the "special effects" shots, scenery shots etc. were disconcertingly brief). I HATED the way that Cartoon Network showed them originally, three minutes a week! Bizarre! I missed a couple and then I gave up on trying to follow it.
  3. Akira didn't have much of a plot, great animation though (needless to say). Robot Carnival also had some stuff by the same animator. Best Japanimation movie I've ever seen was Grave of the Fireflies, a very good movie by any standard. Not sure if it would be considered "manga" though.
  4. I copied just about everything (including gdata) EXCEPT strategy.dll over to a laptop. The file's too honkin' big... I had concerns because the desktop's strategy.dll (though unaltered) has a recent time-stamp, dunno why. So the two machines were using strategy.dlls with totally different time-stamps, but a two-player game of Rebellion got started up without a problem.
  5. Well I've got an old Win98 PC, and I have hardware issues that make it impossible for me to do this. When I tried to use LithUnwrap to open up one of the VSD .x files, I got this error message: "DirectX 8.0 HAL device support is required to load X files. Try changing your display mode to 16-bit or 32-bit" All became clear when I went into DXDiag, which complained with this message: "Hardware accelerated Direct3D 8+ is not available because the display driver does not support it. You may be able to get a newer driver from the hardware manufacturer." I've got a Matrox Millenium II AGP, and I do have the latest driver. It's from 1999.
  6. Why thankiness Teukros for reminding me about Vangelis! You've just reminded me about the score from Bladerunner I possess. I wonder what rebellion is like with Bladerunner music?[/about to find out mode] Tales of the Future is actually what I use, instead of an alarm clock, to get myself out of bed in the morning. I wonder what the neighbors think.
  7. Do you have the Resource Hacker files and the Model Importer files in the same folder?
  8. Starwars.com has a first lookat Outbound Flight, and a picture of the cover art. Looks good.
  9. Speaking of the official Star Wars site, I was there last night and I was reading that there were T.I.E. Defenders at Endor? Did GL Photoshop a few of them in to his "special edition" of ROTJ?
  10. You can not resist the Power of a Side of 'taters...
  11. Yesterday I re-wrote the encyclopedia entries for the starfighter cards. The editing was done with Rebellion only and thus they are all <= the size of the original Rebellion Encyclopedia texts. Y-Wing Koensayr's Y-Wing is an aging but still superb attack starfighter. Well armored and agile, the Alliance's bomber mounts a hyperdrive, dual proton torpedo launchers, two ion guns, and a dual blaster turret. X-Wing Based on the successful Z-95 Headhunter, Incom's T-65 X-wing is more powerful, more heavily shielded, and more agile than its predecessor. Mounting a hyperdrive, quad blasters and a proton torpedo launcher, the X-Wing's survivability, firepower and ease of maintenance have made it a favorite of pilots and crews alike. A-Wing Easy to overheat and hard to maintain, the Dodonna/Blissex A-wing is nevertheless an important starfighter. Extremely fast and agile, armed with dual blasters and concussion missile launchers, and with a hyperdrive and an extensive sensor package, it is well suited for space superiority and hit and fade missions. B-Wing Designed by Admiral Ackbar, the Slayn & Korpil B-Wing is a new generation of attack starfighter. Heavily armored and mounting a small turbolaser, two proton torpedo launchers and three ion guns (as well as dual blasters), a single B-wing can threaten a small capital starship. TIE Fighter Sienar Systems T.I.E. Fighters make up the bulk of the Imperial starfighter corps. These small, lightly armored craft have no life support, shield generators, or hyperdrives making them cheap to produce and maintain in the large numbers necessary for their space superiority role. TIE Bomber A heavily armored attack starfighter, the Sienar T.I.E. Bomber is easily recognised with two pods between bent-wing radiator panels. One pod contains the pilot and Solar Ionization Reactor and the second pod contains the extensive weapons suite. The T.I.E. Bomber has no hyperdrive, life support or shields, making it cheap to build and easy to maintain. TIE Interceptor A great improvement over the T.I.E. Fighter, Sienar's T.I.E. Interceptor is more heavily armored and mounts quad blasters on its panels. A more powerful Solar Ionization Reactor has been installed making the Interceptor almost as fast and maneuverable as the Alliance's A-wing. However, it still lacks the shields, hyperdrive and life support systems found on most Alliance starfighters. TIE Defender Sienar's T.I.E. Defender is one of the few production fighters to be equipped with both a shield generator and hyperdrive system (although it still lacks life support). The Defender mounts considerable firepower in the form of proton torpedo and twin concussion missile launchers, two ion guns and four automatic blaster cannon which can target multiple enemies at once! Maneuvering thrusters are housed in the three odd shaped radiator panels which give the Defender maneuverability almost on the level of the Alliance's A-wing, with speed to match that of the T.I.E. Interceptor.
  12. I hear ya. For example, how do you rewrite into anything meaningful? But that's a project for another day
