Elric_Sloan Posted February 8, 2004 Report Posted February 8, 2004 If the game had been released at the proper price of 39.99, the possibility existed that we may have seen an actual Strategy Guide for the game. Most A-List titles (of which this is certainly one!), have a good strat guide and this game is begging for one! Heck, just the info in the Appendix would make one hell of a Strategy Guide! Its too bad DC decided to go this course, because they really have a winner on their hands!
rjy01 Posted February 8, 2004 Report Posted February 8, 2004 I remember SC posting once about hiring someone to do a strategy guide for his games but I'm sure that a moot point now. Still there's a plethora of knowledge here on the BB. When I get stuck, I can usually find a relevant topic.
Elric_Sloan Posted February 8, 2004 Author Report Posted February 8, 2004 That is definite, the forum is a great tool, but I like to sit down at luch from work and read and this would be a great game to read about! BTW, I converted the appendix to a .PDF format and was thinking of taking it down to Kinko's and having it printed. Is that ok? I am sure you can do it at home on your own printer, but I wasn't sure about having it printed at Kinko's? I dont wanna infringe on any copyrights!!
Supreme Cmdr Posted February 8, 2004 Report Posted February 8, 2004 Yeah, you can print it a Kinko's. No problem.
Faithful Posted February 9, 2004 Report Posted February 9, 2004 Derek, would it be ok for Elric_Sloan to post the PDF files for Download if he is willing and it is legal? Be really nice to take to Kinko's to print it. [ 02-08-2004, 08:15 PM: Message edited by: Faithful ]

Elric_Sloan Posted February 9, 2004 Author Report Posted February 9, 2004 Well, I now have it in both .pdf format as well as Kinkos File Prep format. The Kinkos one allows you to take it straight to Kinko's and have it printed without any conversion. The .pdf is about 10mbs and the Kinkos is about 18 mbs. Just tell me how ya want me to send them and I will be happy to! ************EDITED FOR SPELLING BY SLOAN********** [ 02-09-2004, 12:01 AM: Message edited by: Elric_Sloan ]
Guest Fox__Trot Posted February 9, 2004 Report Posted February 9, 2004 No need to tell us why you edited them anywho if you want to ill host them on my server just private msg me if you want them hosted (If of course the SC okay's it first)
Elric_Sloan Posted February 9, 2004 Author Report Posted February 9, 2004 BTW, after bringing it to Kinko's I found that the print in B&W will cost about $21 bound and double sided. If you try to do it color it jumps WAY, WAY up! To about $220 to be exact!
Scrivener Posted February 9, 2004 Report Posted February 9, 2004 Out here I print at a place called Sir Speedy. They're cheaper than Kinkos, friendlier than Kinkos, more knowledgeable than Kinkos, and much, much higher quality than Kinkos. In face, I just dont go to Kinkos at all... that's the first thing they teach in graphic design school... my professors will actually mark you down for being at Kinkos... no, seriously!
Guest Fox__Trot Posted February 9, 2004 Report Posted February 9, 2004 Just waiting on the pdf's sloan check youre private messages and ill upload them to a webserver However I'd just like the sc to say if its okay (Sloan dont forget to forward them to the sc aswell)
Elric_Sloan Posted February 9, 2004 Author Report Posted February 9, 2004 Hey, Fox, will your Yahoo account take a file this size?? Remember it is 10 and 18 megs respectively! Most won't hold this much!
Guest Fox__Trot Posted February 9, 2004 Report Posted February 9, 2004 Good point - check youre PM ive sent you an email that can take any file size
Guest Fox__Trot Posted February 9, 2004 Report Posted February 9, 2004 thats odd unless youre a vccs student (And I doubt you are) it bounced the email back as a virus alert then I have another email from @vdfp.state.va.us which looks like "*** DGS eSafe2 detected a hostile content in this email and removed it. *** /readme.scr Msg #705 - The file type scr,APPLICATION/OCTET-STREAM is on the Restricted List." So I dont think I recived them - icq me: 135617969 - and you can just send them directly to me or aim - foxtrot5619 - just a bit more inconvient but it'll get the job done a hell of alot faster
mrjingo Posted February 9, 2004 Report Posted February 9, 2004 Just an FYI for you guys. This is an excellent freeware program for making pdf's. I just used it print the appendix and it came out flawlessly. http://www.daneprairie.com/
Elric_Sloan Posted February 10, 2004 Author Report Posted February 10, 2004 Ok, I sent the .pdf over to Derek tonight. Sorry it took so long, I had to work late this evening. Hopefully, he will look at it and approve it and post it for you guys later! Having it in .pdf format and a printed version is great!!
