Well, not really - ships are resupplied on a fairly regular basis, pilots are not. :p Yeah, even the choice at the end of Ep 1 will change a lot of the dialogue and emails for the rest of the game, and it's independent from the mission branching, so if you want to play all the missions and get...

Hey there, glad you like the game so far... there's more to come. :) Yeah, he is great. When we wrote the character he was supposed to be a minor role, but then we ended up getting an awesome voice actor for him (Andi Kravljaca) and gave him a few more un-planned cutscenes, but it still shows...

Would help if you could give us some info on your system, specifically, video card. On some nVidia cards and driver versions changing the "quality vs performance" setting on the drivers will fix that. IIRC, putting it on the fastest setting is what will break Standoff.

Here goes: Feel free to make any changes that may be necessary, like resizing the text or so.

Alright, then, let us know if you have any problems or suggestions, we are always checking these forums... and enjoy the game. :)

Well, all the options are awesome. IMHO the Shrike is the best looking post-WC2 fighter sized ship, and the Plunkett is just plain bad-ass. I voted for the Venture though, because it probably got the least flight time of them all in the actual games.

For what it's worth, it'd be pretty damn easy to come up with a 1200 poly version of any steltek ship... yes they are all rounded, but they are much simpler designs than the pre-WC3 Kilrathi ships which also have a lot of rounded parts. Take a half dozen spheres or geospheres, distort them...

Doh, Pete just linked me this thread. One Wake-class profile silhouette coming right up. Edit: here it is with all the turrets. And here without a couple of turrets that ended up looking a bit weird in the previous render. So you guys pick one of the above and I'll try to make a vector...

I agree wholeheartedly with LOAF's ideas. I think that's the space MMOG that most WC fans would appreciate right there. I've played a 14 day trial of EVE online earlier this year and I was really impressed by it - except for the fact that the interface sucks (no matter what you have heard, the...

SoaSE really, really shines in making each ship unique, though. Each capital ship has certain special abilities, and a different number of fighter squadrons that it can hold, and then each capital ship gains experience points that let you improve each special ability... I've only played the game...

I'm not really a connoisseur when it comes to SoaSE, but I do have a suggestion... you could rework the tech trees (if that's moddable) in such a way that pursuing new designs is always an option, but never a necessity, in order to not fall behind in technology. What I mean is that you could...

In all fairness, Scimitars really were in service for a century, though. :p

Can't wait to see the others - and feel free to tell me when you run out of models, I still owe you many others that I haven't found in my mess of backup discs yet. :p

Great job, Péricles, I'm specially amazed by the smaller models, as I told you via e-mail... the talent it takes to build these models at such a small scale, and still keep all the details... very nice! Parabéns. :D

You can use Thomas Bruckner's 3D Exploration plugin (from his website) to get 3D Exploration to open .iff files, which lets you convert it to any of the bazillion formats 3D Exploration supports. The mapping info should in theory remain untouched during the whole process, so you can just paint...

Yup. Our system is still more similar to WCP/SO than to WC2... you can't lock a torpedo onto ships that can be destroyed with guns and missiles.. and the ships which do require torpedoes will require at least one torpedo per vital component (engines, bridge, and such) That also means it is...

I would add two things to what Pete just said: 1) The difficulty setting in WCP/SO (and consequentially Standoff) also affects the flying skill of your wingmen - they get smarter at harder difficulties, so Rookie may not always be the best choice for everyone. 2) Ships are generally more...

Yeah, the "look, this is a hidden bonus ship which is why the cockpit strut and HUD graphics don't match it at all" approach seems to me as something unimmersive and that ultimately doesn't really add that much to the game (a Sartha that uses a Ferret's cockpit is just a Ferret with slightly...

Originally we had dismissed the idea of having flyable Kilrathi craft in the simulator because we had a limited number of ship slots (and we had lots of unflyable confed ships). Even though now we could probably raise that limit, I think we have plenty of ships already, and we couldn't possibly...

I'm surprised to hear that thing has only 30K polys.... keep up the awesome work!
