Come gather round people, wherever you roam
And admit that the waters, around you have grown
And accept it that soon, you'll be drenched to the bone
If your eyes to you are worth savin
Then you better start DL'n or you'll sink like a stone
For the Aaaart' it is a chaaa . 'en .ging

Done with the Sides, cranking on the Shils. Expect to have a package out to Monsieur le Spook and the Rogue by the end of the week. Someone new for you to pester.

Thank you all for your patience, I hope the results will justify the wait. Once again, thank you. Taste below.

Whew, he said while trying to un-cross his eyeballs.

OK, finished. Doing the final visual check and running the art set in a game to make sure there aren't any "pink-eye" problems, etc...

Files are huge; zipped, the 'sides' alone are 3.75 Mb. The package has the usual folders; Art, with subfolders AlliedShips_Back, AlliedShip_Transp. Folder organization is a bit disjoint, because of size issues, so there is a 'ReadMe' in the top level of every zip file. Please read. Replacing the std game art files is pretty straightforward, but you should read the ReadMe.

There are some 'enhancements' included; additional art files that will not impact any game in progress. I decided to add some 'Allied" ships (APs, AKs, TKs) to unused 'std' game bit maps corresponding to the ship class slot locations. These are in a separate file, with their own instruction set; if you don't want 'em, don't use 'em, but they are there for dl if you wish.

There were over 220 images in this set, including the 'enhancement' ships. I know the Japanese are next, but please let us recover our eyesight a bit, first. They will happen, and soon, but we aren't in a position to give a firm commit date just yet.

Plan to ship everything off to Spooky and the Rogue this evening, or first thing in the morning (California time) Sunday. So start looking.

After you zip these, you can delete the db file in the zip.
It's not needed , and it's deletion reduces the zip size considerably.[;)]

Kelley(TomLabel)'s a bad boy from Alabama and too far away, but Brian(BigB) and I are just down the road in SoCal. As long as it's not farther than Victorville, you name the pub. Since you are buying, I drink Sam Adams, Urquell Pilsen, or Harp. I'm sure B can find a good esoteric brau to sock you for. I'll give ya your own personal hard copy CD-ROM.

Yes, the email was sent, and apparently went through to both of them. It's up to them now. They are both very diligent. I do not dare poke either one of them; you had better either get undercover or else mrs.undercover will have at you severely about the head and shoulders.

Ciao. JWE

They look great.

DL'd the standard set to have a look.

You guys didn't do full hulls on sub shils.
Was there a reason?

Fremens full hulled subs are awesome in the combat animation screens.
I can't go back to the half hulled animations for subs.
You see more of these combats than any other in the game.

Any chance this will get rectified?[;)]
