Hey guys. I am pulling this out of cold storage and I'm asking TAB if he wants to get back into it or not. I had backed everything up to an IDE hard drive at the time.

My reasoning is in this post about Revenge from Mars -- https://www.vpforums...860#entry549881

 

For a game from 1991 (Episode 1), I think we'd want to play it on a pc at some point before we die, HA!

vpDisco is here: VPDisco 1.2B - VPForums.org

 

Don't expect anything soon - I'm going to need to get old hardware, an old video card, etc etc , and then I need to remember what methods I was using for the video captures and editing to make it work. If anyone wants to help with scripting/playtesting/narrowing down the rules and sound linkage beyond any doubt to make it accurate let me know.  I'll try to get a base version of the table uploaded soon.

 

Damn Brian, nice to see a post from you!  Hope all is well in real life

Hello Rob. Real life generally sucks now, but that's just how it goes. TAB says he can't use his left half of his body because he has MS, and he drinks more to deal with the pain. :( So he won't be able to help with art here.

 

I did find my backup files and media, and all the sound samples for the games, so that was a big thing for me to locate to save having to do that work again. Now I need to see if Noah will host them or if I need to find an alternate hosting solution.

Some of us have been around awhile, but not 15 years.

 

When you get a chance, could you post a summary of project and video-demo of it (if it still exists)?

 

PM is fine if there is some public-posting issue.

I'll make threads for them - TAB worked on graphics for them a long time ago, but he says he can't do it now. AFAIK there are no issues, just I can't send out the software I'm using to rip everything as I don't have permission for that.

Locking this thread as there is a new WIP thread here: Williams Star Wars Episode 1 (Requires vpDisco) - VP & VPM - Works in Progress (WIPs) - VPForums.org
