It's out, and I downloaded it. It's pretty good, except that on level 5A it keeps crashing Ares...

Anyway, it's semi-challenging, which I like, 'cause Black Seas and After the War were both a bit too easy. The plot revolving around how well you do is a cool feature, and the new Obish ships are interesting.


I guess I could get around mission 5A by failing the one that led me to it, which leaves a pretty good plug.

Yeah, I caught a pretty nasty bug when I finished 3A, but only once. I think Slug made the Obish a little too tough though, 'cuz it's still too easy. Very well made none the less.

Yeah. It's too easy, even though it's possible for me to lose on a few missions when trying my best. My plug, "The Rouge," I have made sure is difficult. Not like I get completely wasted difficult, but just close enough that it makes me determined to try again, even if it's the tenth time.

I have been unable to replicate your crashing problems, if it's error codes 1-4, then increase memory to ares; if it's error codes 11 or higher, restart the computer. Also, if you find errors or bugs please [url="http://"http://mailto:gajet@pacbell.net"]email[/url] them to me.

As for the Obish being too tough, I will fix that in my next version, 1.0.4

Thank you for the compliments, I worked independently from the other member (singular, unfortunately Posted Image ) of Slugsoft on this one and it took a lot of work.

What system do you have? It's a bit different in OS 8 than in OS 7.

Found it before you could tell me, Pyro Posted Image

Ah, the memories. To think, all the self-promotion, hype and talk and Iron Fist was the only major project that actually got done.
Well, soon to be joined by another.

Cube Ships are still functional when 78 % of the ship has been destroyed. I guess you could have as little as 2/9 of a borg cube.

You could have costructed the level to literally give us 4,798,294,221 1/2 borg cubes, Slug. (I memorised that number when I first got the plug)

The first installment's already up on the EV Image Gallery. If you have two minutes to spare, you should watch it, even though it only gives a faint idea of setting (people familiar with my ideas will instantly know).

1fps!! My condolences.
Looks like Panther has lost its pant...

I'm glad that I retained the option to boot natively in OS 9 Posted Image
Checking the EV thingy now,

... funny, I never could warm to EV,
even though I was trying it out before Ares.

"Throne of Stars" eh, or at least a trailer movie of same.
Kinda reminds a cross between Bab 5 and Star Wars....

I presume it will be up to your usual standard! Posted Image
I'll volunteer as a beta tester when the time comes.

It takes place in a small portion of the same setting as an abandoned project.
That's a bit of a stretch, so to be short: no.

Well, what do you call major? Star Trek Ares was a pretty decient sized project, and it pulled off quite well.

And Starlance, no doubt. Ah, memories. It's interesting to see that good old [url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/cgi-bin/vftp/show.pl?product=ares&category=scenarios&display=rating&file=Footsteps%20of%20Pyrrhus.sit.Bin"]Footsteps of Pyrrhus[/url] is still number one on the charts after all this time...

Well, it's still a good plug Posted Image I might have something still floating around in there - people liked that elejeetian conversion.
