Thanks. the entire purpose behind them is to get 'something' on the table that we can use to visualize different ships and from there start figuring out stats and such. That is if my schedule and my friends schedule ever aligns again...

Very slowly right now. Dealing with setting up a Programming study group at work that needs to cover the material covered in the "Intro to Programming" and "Java 1" classes so that's been my focus for the last week or so. Haven't had much time to devout to learning the mission building mechanics.

When I look at the 'About' window in the program itself it says Console version 3.0d and compiler version 1.0 R24d. When I look at properties under window explorer it says version 2.4. And new question (I donno could be related to the map question), when I open WCPPas I get 3 blank windows that...

Okay so first note. When I went to plug-ins, it was blank. Is this a problem?

So, no beating around the bush: I've been pointed to a couple old tutorials about using a program called WCPPas to build missions for WCP/SO. So first off, resources. WCPPas is apparently a a compiler designed to build WCP/SO Missions. You will probably need a copy of vcl50.bpl. I have a...

Anyone got a copy of vcl50.zip I can get? I downloaded the WCPPas... and it won't run with out the vcl50 file... which the link on the UE site is dead. edit: semi-nevermind. I did a search in my software library and found a copy of the file. 2nd edit: Rather then thread-jack DefianceIndustries...

Once again I point you to my monkey building a reactor metaphor. I have literally 0 background in game design and have only recently started studying software design. I don't even know what broad concepts MED (or WCPPas whatever that is/was) uses to try and understand. You're basically asking...

nice to know my 3 months of trial and error trying to learn the program was so well spent then. I even had a Vlog of my efforts in that regard. And did try opening several WCSO missions. But yeah... as I said before... I don't have the background to understand what I'm looking at, so yeah back...

Thank you Quarto. That's very helpful.

Do we have any sort of documention or explination of how to use MED? I tried to figure it out a while back, but I just don't have the background and it was bit like watching a 5 year old trying to assemble a nuclear reactor.

very true. I mean there is a reason "Green screen" continued to be derided as a cheap cop out used by Hollywood much of the time. It's a technique, and just like any technique it's easy to perform, but demanding to master and thus when it's done well it looks fantastic but when it's done badly...

Actually doing Green Screen shots is farily cheap these days. Starting from flat nothing, you can put together a moderately decent sized Green screen set for less then $200. Of course I'm not starting from scratch. I actually already have a couple lights and the green back drop so would probably...

Well, if we're going to go that far why not just build a fan-based WCP 2?

Are you not getting the message or just the notification?

It's all good gr1mre4per. We know how time can get away from us. This is a fan project and literally every bit that we do get is a gift. Hope you enjoyed your Vacation. By the way, DefianceIndustries are you getting my private convos? I sent one a month ago and haven't heard back from you...

so little bit of a necro post. Nothing super-major to talk about. the last 2 semesters have been rather brutal and killed my energy for a lot of things and now I'm slowly getting back into my various projects. One thing I have done is built several game piece mock ups so I can at least do some...

Now I've got ideas for scenes involving the helmet display being off-line. This is a concerted effort to drive me insane, isn't it Defiance?

hmm think you could convince that Angel is the princess of the Wing Commander story?

So I took a few hours off from... well every thing today to do some work on the big verison of the Tallahassee. I think this shot makes a good effort at showing the size difference. The prior version is about 11" long (show on the left) while this large version will be abound 24" long. Seeing...

So have a bit of a so-so update. I am continuing this project... sort of. My summer semester is proving to be nigh-hellish as I'm talking System Analysis, Introduction to Information Systems and Network Security Fundimentals this semester, and the first two of those classes are regarded as the...
