Welcome to Our Nightmare If and whenever you'll decide to join a fleet - choose wisely All that is gold does not glitter...and all who wonder are not lost TTFN [ 10-03-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

They can't hit broadside of a barn from the inside. I give them one more go before I release control of the remote TTFN

First - the demo was/is based on beta code. Second - when posting your system specs, include driver version and specific HW; i.e geforce 64 = GF2 GTS PRO or GF2 Ultra? In any event, D/L and install the DetXP 21.81 drivers. TTFN and Welcome to Our Nightmare [ 10-02-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

Hate to say this but I agree with Blades on this. If I were a newbie and decided to join Prime Fleet, it is up to the FC to assign me where I would be needed with in Prime Fleet based on my Career Choice. The same would hold true for anyone joining a fleet. The FL is the one responsible for balancing personnel within his fleet. TTFN [ 10-01-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

Use DeSylva's timeline for RP. TTFN

[rp] Heat, god I hate the heat ... Onward we went, at the point, Chavic, the Scholar, myself, Gunney, and the others. ... maybe I've gone soft since leaving terra-firma ... Blades was not a fool - at least not completely. He stuck us on point. The first to get hit in the event of an ambush. Which would take care of two birds with one stone - ID the ambush and eliminate possible difficulties in the near future. ...Naw, I aint soft... "Show time," Scholar muttered with a grin to me as the gaggle stopped at Chavic's signal. "Yep," I said to the gaggle as the came around me, "you all know what to do," I added as I watched Chavic scurry up the ridge. For some unknown reason a silly, sadistic, and at the same time smug grin came across my mug as we followed Chavic up the same ridge. ...just hate this bloomin' heat... Yep, there they were. One of them patrols that Blades had mentioned. We could take them out easily - but not without raising the alarm and damning the mission to failure just as it was beginning. ...I'm getting to old for this... "Do you feel lucky?" Chavic says to me as he removed the top half of his overalls and took off his t-shirt, which he tore into strips and held them in front of me. For a moment I flashback to just a few months ago and then again to a few years back. One flashback was centerd around Galcom HQ and the other reminded me of the Witching Hour. I guess one could say that I panicked somewhat. I prefer to call it a momentary laspe of reason and the short time one takes to reflect on one's actions - those taken or those about to be taken. I held out my arms and Chavic quickly tied me up. I think that he enjoyed that to much. York gave the bindings a quick check and nodded to Chavic. Chavic and several of the mercs headed out carefully but swiftly along the backside of the ridge. York began to count to himself. ...and where are you going littl' red Riding Hood?.. When York reached his mark he nodded to those of the gaggle that remained and we all headed over the ridge ... towards the patrol. ...I'm going to my Grandma's house in the woods... We got within 100 meters before we were challenged. Must be new recruits, either that or these twits must've landed on somebody's s-list. We recieved the standard Halt, who goes there? and Advance to be recognized lines. I thought the Lt. in charge was going to have a cow right then and there when the Scholar ID us. When Scholar ID me as the escaped prisoner from Galcom HQ, York nailed me in the kidneys with the butt of his ZS10. Which caused me to loose my balence and drop on my knees. Tears began to swell in my eyes from the unexpected pain radiated from my lower side and back. With my arms tied I had no choice but to fall on my other side. For some reason, the rocks and gravel did not yield to the side of my head and face as they made contact with the ground. Black spots appeared in my vision and I could feel blood trickling down the side of my head and face. I opened my mouth to scream from the pain but that only resulted in a mouth full gravel and dirt. My scream resulted in my spitting out these intruders from my oral cavity. ...terra-firma tastes like ... The patrol got a laugh out of that and they relaxed their gaurd some. But their laughter and merriment was cut off quite suddenly as they heard the telltale clicks of the safeties of weapons being released as a plethora (to them at least) of ZS10s and HD4SGs were leveled at the patrol from both my gaurds and the gaggle with Chavic directions. The patrol was surrounded, they gave up without a scuffle. ...you bastard York, I thought, you 're enjoying this to much... My head, side, and lower back was still throbbing as Chavic reported back to our fearless leader of this managerie. The point crew, as I began to call them to myself, secured and stunned the lost patrol. At the same time they began to confiscate their equipment and uniforms. Some put the uniforms of the patrol on - York among them. Others set up a hasty perimeter. I was still tied up by strips of Chavic's t-shirt. "You gonna loosen these up York?" I asked my grinning Gunnery Sergeant before he put his new found helmet on. "Nope," he said, "you're now the bunny leading the foxes through the briar patch." If looks could kill, York would've been dead now. I have no idea what York's expression was. I could not see his face through the mask of the helmet. Then I grinned, a very evil grin and chuckled some. York's actions were correct. we might not have the luxury of getting ready before we ran across the next patrol as we drew closer to our objective. "What ever you do York," I said still chuckling some and spitting gravel and dirt out from my mouth, "dont throw me in the briar patch with..." I never got a chance to finish, York just grabbed me with one hand hauled me to my feet and said, "We got to get them ruby slippers sir." [/rp] TTFN [ 10-01-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

ATI driver support sucketh big time. Get a nVidia (GF2 or GF3) v-card. Joystick - Saitek X36 USB FCS. Sweat sensations IMO and will accept tender use and abuse equally. TTFN

MOO III is the one to wait for TTFN

quote:Video Board Trident 9680 PCI 2mb This is your problem. Get a better video card with at least 4mb of v-ram. And just to add what has been already stated - BC3K is no longer officially supported since it is now freeware. TTFN [ 09-29-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

Yea right TTFN

Much better than Q-Leap IMO. I'll give this a go for a couple of more weeks. TTFN

hehehehe ... just wait until BCM starts shipping I got one I'm a really wanting to finish TTFN

quote:...and DS9 just plain sucked after the first 2 seasons. DS9 sucked until the last two seasons IMO. I like fireballs in space And I agree, this better be good 'cause I really did not like Quantum Leap. TTFN

quote:Will there eventually be a link to user-created scenarios and campaigns? You bet quote:i'm sure that Gallion will place a few links... but I don't think it'll be that hard as people will link all sorts of stuff to here. Correct. Most likely there will be GBS topic thread just for mission/campaign script links. TTFN

I am aware (as are many members of the community) of the amount of effort, etc. that went into developing a B5 game. Yes it was a shame that the B5 game was canned Capitalism can be a cruel beast at times Play BCM, learn GBS-II, and make ye own mission/campaign scripts. It is not hard and is somewhat idiot proof - to a certain degree. TTFN

For those new members that decide to join a fleet there is one thing that you must remember (aside form the other stuff) - you can only have one user profile. * Not the same user that is a member of multiple fleets. * Not the same user that has different careers or castes in the same or multiple fleets; i.e. Trader and EF Marine. * Use the same e-mail address that you used to register on the forum. Free webbased e-mail address are not authorized. IOW - pick ONE career/race/caste and stick with it. I just booted a dopey new member from the Fleet DB that tried this.

BCM is unlike any game (aside from BC3K that is) that has ever been developed before. Like any piece of software, it can be moded if the moder knows WTF they are doing. Dont look at GBS as one would look at a level editor for other games, it does not and will not allow drastic changes to the BC Series universe. Last time I am saying this - GBS is for mission and campaign script development with in the established BC universe. Nothing more, nothing less. You want to make something in a Star Trek Universe - get a decent or develope your own game based on the Star Trek Universe. TTFN [ 09-24-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]

Play the game before moding it. Use GBS-II to make your own killer mission/campaign scripts. TTFN [ 09-23-2001: Message edited by: Gallion ]
