Cyberion has recently updated his Work In Progress page with this 3D reproduction of the Tiger's Claw barracks. It's missing a lot of the filth of the original Claw barracks, and I'm not just referring to the posters of scantily clad women, but remember that it's still classed as work in...

Buffalo Wings is just the name of the patch version, I think. I seem to recall it saying something else pre-patched. Search Google Groups for BRender, there's plenty of people there referring to Privateer 2 using the BRender engine. Apparently there's even a BRender logo on the box, but I don't...

That's what I thought, but Google wasn't showing up anything. Google Groups confirmed it though.

Kris is right. Also since it wasn't specifically stated earlier, Privateer 2 uses an engine developed by what was then Warthog based out of Manchester, UK. I forgot the actual name of the engine.. something beginning with B.

In celebration of the second birthday of the Reckoning mod for Freelancer, Bob has sent in a variety of goodies showing off some of the amazing work done for the mod. First up we have the pictures - an InSys Rapier as created by Marc of Tarawa fame, and in-game pictures of a Demon, Hector...

Chris usually takes several hours of video. It just never gets encoded and put online.

Great job. You're probably best off booking flights ASAP.. you might want to hold off a bit on the hotel though. They don't get booked up incredibly quickly, and you might be able to find someone else to share with. Failing that there are a couple of livejournals where you can advertise for...

It's better when you share the cost with several others.

Yeah, the main hotels are that one and the Hyatt Regency. We tend to prefer the Marriott because it's quieter at night (all the night stuff happens in the Hyatt) and the elevator situation tends to be better.

The way VBulletin does stuff is kinda crappy.. you can't put a new forum logo in without forcing the forum to one particular color. So I made it blue. I know it's not quite the same blue, but it was either that, teal, or red. If it isn't good let me know and I'll take it off.

Everyone should wish Chris "ChrisReid" Reid a happy birthday. Because it's his birthday today! As it's customary to celebrate by posting a picture, here's one from Dragon*Con. -- Original update published on March 17, 2005

Remembering our announcement of CIC Finance on April 1 last year, Major Striker was shocked to find this ATM during a trip to Paris. We're not sure if CIC Finance can co-exist with "CIC Banques" or if we'll have to take on the legal might of a French bank, but we have been investigating new...

That's not good enough. This year is special. It's the fifth annual WC convention at Dragoncon. Fifth!

Yeah. Well, get your plane tickets booked soon. By May you can probably expect those prices to have doubled. When I booked a flight in to Baltimore and out of Atlanta in May three years ago, it cost me about £550 which is my previous cheapest flight deal. I know what I'm doing extra early this...

Oh right. Portsmouth. Now I know why you didn't want anyone knowing. :)

As promised by the Privateer Remake team yesterday, the big version 1.0 release is now finished and available for download! I could tell you all about it, but the team behind the project are probably the best ones to do that: -- Original update published on March 6, 2005

Assuming leaving from Gatwick, you could do the flight for £272 according to Expedia. That's leaving on September 1st on Delta 19, and going home on September 5th on Delta 12. There's a bunch of similar flights for the same price, they're all Delta though. I'm heading back on Delta 58.

After a lengthy period of beta testing, John Cordell from the Privateer Remake team has a special announcement to make. There you have it, folks. 36 hours would make the release fall somewhere on either Sunday or Monday. When the time comes, we'll have the news here as well. This is the...

Well.. I'm making a detour first to visit ace and blonde in New York.. so my flights are about £400. I figure food and Atlanta hotel costs will be about £150. The rest is just spending money. It's a good deal - the cheapest my flights have ever been previously was £550, and last year they were...

Our latest poll asks which next generation console you'd most like to play a Wing Commander game on. Each kind of system has its own merits, and it's a tough choice. A couple of years ago we did a similar poll based on current systems, but since development on those systems will slowly be phased...
