    • Saber Studios backup plan (help needed!)


      So we've got a little problem here. I've lost all backup copies of Saber Studios, including the server file. But regardless, I still intend to put all the SS content (primarily graphics) back online through (url="http://"http://www.evula.com")EVula's(/url) website, the (url="http://"http://www.evula.com")Lair(/url). I will no longer be running the website myself, but you can instead download the files at one of many (url="http://"http://www.evula.com")EVula service stations(/url) near you once everything is worked out. But I'll need everyone's help; anyone who has content that you downloaded from Saber Studios. If you do, I would request that you send these files to the SS backup address:

      saberstudiosbackup@evula.net

      We don't want any copies, just original files in the same condition as you found them when they were downloaded. Ships (complete with all the comm, shipyard, 3/4 and top sprite, icon, 3/4 and top masks), Outfits (again complete with all graphics), 3D models, textures, planets, landscape scenes... anything! We want to make those graphics available for the community once again. We'll even accept the old Azdara and Zachit ship sets, if anyone still has them. 😉

      A few files we need for sure:

      • United Earth Carrier
      • United Earth Destroyer
      • United Earth Cruiser
      • Voinian Heavy Fighter
      • Voinian Interceptor
      • Star Wars Imperial TIE Fighter
      • Rebel Manta
      • Rebel Interceptor
      • Rebel Heavy Fighter / Gunboat
      • Rebel Corvette / Light Frigate
      • Rebel Destroyer
      • Rebel Freighter
      • Rebel Shuttle
      • Rebel Cruiser
      • Confederation Patrol Ship
      • Confederation Gunboat
      • Confederation Frigate
      • Confederation Cruiser
      • Confederation Corvette
      • Confederation Light Freighter
      • Confederation Battlecruiser
      • Confederation Courier
      • Phase Turret
      • Quad Phase Turret
      • Turbophase Turret
      • Quad Turbophase Turret
      • Phase Cannon
      • Swivel Phase Cannon
      • Turbophase Cannon
      • Swivel Turbophase Cannon
      • Twin Swivel versions of both types of phase cannons
      • Proton Turret
      • Proton Cannon
      • Blaze Turret
      • Blaze Cannon

      I would also request that you stuff the files before submitting them. I'll also try to keep this topic updated with files we have already received, so that we don't keep getting the same file more than once.

      Any help would be greatly appreciated. This won't work without the team effort. 😉

      Live long and prosper.

    • I have a couple of your old textures originally used on the BFS II ships, would you like those back? I looked through my files for other stuff, but I'm afraid I haven't been able to find anything yet. Could have sworn I had a couple of your w00t Rebel ships... I'll have to keep looking.

    • I've got a few patterns on my computer at home... when I get home I'll update the front page to Saber Studios with the list of wanted files, as well as a list of what I've already got (to prevent people from emailing me 50 different copies of the Manta).

      Anything you've got that was property of Saber Studios is what I'm looking for... which includes any textures you may have. Appreciate anything you submit.

      EVula: Sounds good to me.

    • Oh yeah... I just found these in on of my many archives. These were some of your older works, which I grabbed. These aren't on your list of items, but I feel it's important to keep these high quality graphics available.

      Hope this helps!

      Yeap, I forgot about those (originally for one of ares1's plugin projects). Some of the images look like they've lost some quality, but they'll do fine for a plugin project (after some Photoshoppin', perhaps). Thanks for taking the time to find those.

      Excellent. But you don't happen to have any of the masks, comm, icons etc.? If not, go ahead and send them anyway... I'm sure we can find someone else who has these.

      Great! I know you have a few of them, since you made a picture (posted in the Image Gallery) with quite a few of them. 😉 Take your time.

      Whoops, sorry, I was scanning for a link to send it to, didn't see one, and sent it to your main email. Easily corrected, though. It's been resent.
