If the cockpits were all modelled in 3D, there's no reason you couldn't offer both the traditional 4 views and additionally a free-look view on top of that.

Maj Striker: VS could easily handle a 50k model, as long as there aren't hundreds of them around at any one time.

dan_w: what about Blender? That's Free! ;)

That Tiger's Claw refit looks absolutely amazing. Wow.

spiritplumber: if your local version of WCU ever does die, you can always get the most recent working version from CVS (presuming you haven't uploaded non-working things to CVS).

Yeah, just be glad you get slightly messed up gfx with the 7167 drivers. I couldn't even browse the web for more than 30s without my desktop freezing. They were a brown-paper-bag release.

The fourth movie is awesome. :)

Looks awesome.

Coming from a don't-remember-the-original-model and innocent-onlooker perspective, I'd suggest the model needs more detail. It looks a bit blocky and basic as it is. A few additional finer details could make it look really awesome and really large.

I disagree. You need to get across the contempt humans have for Kilrathi and vice versa, so you have to include fairly harsh lines. It's not really racism, we're not discriminating against a real people here.

The original comment was nothing more than a troll. From the horses mouth: "I am not being rude, if you interpret this as rude, that is your problem." Privateer, and ergo Privateer Remake, are different games with different goals from Freelancer. Nobody is forcing anybody to prefer one or...

kilolima: Try kate or gedit (the stock KDE and Gnome editors, respectively), or leafpad (Gtk and very lightweight), or even gvim if you know how to use vi(m).

This really should become a sticky topic. 1) Privateer Remake is a Vega Strike mod. There is a special section for modding on the VS forums. 2) There is already an "expansion mod" for Privateer, WC Universe with it's own section on the crius.net forums.

A bugs database (using bugzilla or flyspray or mantis or one of the many FOSS bugs databases) might be useful as well as more automated.

I hope your outstanding work on VS/PR isn't reflected by lower grades! I hope you study first before you work on this stuff. :)

*idea* Why not do something like TTDPatch... have a bunch of options so you can start a game with things like autotracking on or off. Basically, for everything that wasn't in the original game, have an option to disable it. That way you can satisfy the die-hards and the players who don't...

All the years of graft finally paying off, eh hellcatv?

Freelancer isn't Free. Vega Strike and Privateer Remake are by the community for the community (with a huge dollop of effort from the stalwart developers like hellcatv). It's more than a game. Expanding on that, you can't really contribute back to and improve Freelancer; you get what you're...

Btw, it maybe would be pertinent to get some kind of commitment from voice actors when it comes to doing the campaign voices. It would be a bit poor for the voice of a character to change mid-campaign as one actor takes over from another!

What about redoing the pseudo-video images that accompany the lines?
