    • WOTF, SETR, SEAC, SL, WITV, M:Inv, where have they all gone?


      Well it looks like all of the big TCs have stalled or been cancelled:

      •Wrath of the Fallen- bogged down due to my desire to have (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/patrickcavanaugh/.Pictures/tpccorvette.jpg")good graphics(/url) for the ships.
      Stalled

      •StarLance- cancelled due to bugs in Hera. Possible release as Coldstone RPG?
      Cancelled

      •Marathon: Invasion- most graphics/ship designs complete, no missions have been created.
      Stalled

      •Star's End(The Raiders, Alien Conflict)- I was beta testing SETR, missions scrapped because Joveia thought they weren't fun enough. Unknown current status, but assumed stalled.
      Stalled

      • War In The Void- haven't heard about this for months. I think its safe to assume it is also stalled.
      Stalled

      So, anyone out there working on a major(5+ levels) plug/mod/TC? I sure hope so.

    • I may start work on SETR again if I am totally unalterably bored. I mean... so bored that I would try to eat my foot to see what it tasted like. Not to say that I haven't already.

    • Yeah!
      It's War the next part is well under way, plodding along. Over 20 more storyboarded levels so far... I may put some ships out to contract to speed it up.

      🙂

      ------------------
      Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

    • Earth's Journey 2.0 -- New and harder missions somewhat better plot net play (If I get around to it) -- Should be out before the end of the year

      Viva La Resistance -- Tells the story of the early UNS from the founding of the extrasolar colonies through the occupation by the Cantharan and ends near the end of the original Ares missions. -- Will come out sometime next year

      Me and Captain Skyblade are also working on a set of net missions that let you play with almost all of the Ishiman and Cantharan ships.

      sounds good.
      I was actually writing a plugin with this very same plot about a year or so ago called
      Target: Earth.

    • Are you still working on it or did it die like some of the others you mentioned?

      (Edit) Strange what happened to my sig?(/edit)

      The Stars Of Fire plugin has 17 missions, all new sprites, all new storyline.
      I gues you could call it a Total Conversion plug.
      Just to let you know 😉

      Oh, one other thing, Patrick, your models look great, you just need the right textures. I can give you some excellent spaceship textures if you want them.

      Thanks, I'd be glad to have them. My email addy is right up above the message.

      Yeah, it died when my parents banned me from the computer(ouch!) in October 2000. I've gone back and looked at it recently–and it doesn't seem like a plug worth reviving.

      I'll chip in a few cents 😉 I wonder what happened to him...

      Actually, his subconscious restricted the option regarding his board membership.

    • Well, as soon as The Silent Ruins of Earth EVO Preview is done, I believe that me and Pesimist Guy are going to start working somewhat seperatly on the Ares and Nova versions respectivly.

    • Patrick, would you be interested in continuing, or using the graphics/sounds/missions of SETR? I've dropped the project, don't see why it should be wasted.
