  1. Cool. Thanks guys. The wireless card power saving seems like a good lead, but I want to try some tests (ethernet, wired internet connection) to make sure it's the WiFi. She was open to backing up her files and resetting everything, which I thought was very extreme, but that could work. We'll keep that option open just in case. And yeah, I can dig out an old USB adapter real quick. Good ideas, everyone! EDIT: Oooh, oddly enough, I can still use ping google.com and recieve a good signal. What...
  2. Hey all So I was trying to help a friend out today fix her low-end, touchscreen HP (Windows 8) laptop (I'm known as the neighborhood computer geek). She had a very weird problem. She was able to connect to a wireless network, but she wasn't able to receive internet access. I've fixed this many times. Usually all I have to do is restart, do some cmd prompt ipconfig stuff (/flushdns), or make sure there isn't any firewall problems. Everything I've tried didn't work. She's using Google Chrome (I only use Firefox, so that didn't help) and when I did /flushdns, her internet worked...at least for a minute or so. Then, it would stop working, and give a "not connected to the internet" error. I tried a couple other things (including a winstock restart...a forum told me to) and that worked...temporarily. I've never heard of a problem quite like this. Has any one encountered anything like this? It's very odd. I don't have the specs, but I could probably help. I've done some googling, but no solution seems to do the trick. She's recently been gone (laptop hasn't been used in a month). Could this be a hardware issue? Could her wireless card be dead? How about an IP problem? I'm just a bit out of my league at the moment. Any help would be incredibly awesome. Thanks!
  3. Hey there! Welcome! I personally have been following your work quite closely via Facebook, and really look forward to seeing more! Excellent work, and glad to have you here!
  4. I guess you could make a script that makes the player invisible/visible. Not sure what you are looking for, though. It would just be a floating saber...
  5. Neat! That red blade is what I envisioned for the other sword...but it looks simply excellent here! Nice work!
  6. Woah! Nice work! Don't worry about it too much. If you didn't think it looked good, then it probably didn't.
  7. Very cute! That was a very nice end sequence to pop in there. Gotg was a really well done movie, IMO.
  8. Woah...you are so fast! Really nice work! One thing I think the designers of the hilt should have done is color the actual blade. The hilt could keep that cool silver and black, but I think it would be really cool if the blade was like a deep red, but still had a metallic feel to it. I think that would be awesome!
  9. I tried to do this in SP. It could be possible with ICARUS scripting. Unfortunately, I can only get it to color the ENTIRE screen (rather than the edges, as many games do). So I may be able to implement a mod where your entire screen fades to black as you begin to die. I also made these damage screen things that flash when you are hurt in third person. I like those a lot better.
  10. I loved Neo Dark Ages! Me and @ did some neat work on a huge Harry Potter project, and of course @@eezstreet has his amazing Gunslingers Academy.
  11. Personally, the best solution would be to add some tags, I think. Otherwise, we could make the same argument for artwork, personal works, stories, and pretty much anything, really, and we just end up with a bunch of divisions that cloud the forum.
  12. @@redsaurus: That is quite awesome, sir!
  13. You can always compress your files down to lower file sizes...how long are the videos you are capturing, out of curiosity? I haven't used FRAPS in a long time. I've used Dxtory and Action! (the free trials, so there was a watermark, but not too bad).
  14. Personally, I wasn't a big fan of the decision to do away with the EU, but from a story telling standpoint: it's essential. In order to give Disney the storytelling freedom and power that it really needed to "reboot" the franchise, it needed to have no constraints on it, whatsoever. Once I understood that, I saw it as a sad event, but a necessary one that cleared the path for a new epic installment in the franchise. I never had a chance to see Star Wars in theaters. I can't wait to see 7 on the big screen. It just wouldn't be the same, even with excellent source material, such as Zahn's work.
  15. Sure! You mean like an ingame demonstration or one of those timelapsey things? I really want to make an epic trailer for v2...so that could happen!
  16. I think I may add some more beahvior options, but it's almost done!
  17. Please don't "bump" the thread. If you'd like to check and see if anyone's taken on the project, that's fine, but don't just keep posting "bump" in order to spam the thread,
  18. Implemented Primary and Secondary weapon support today. This allows the NPC to use two weapons. He/She will use the Primary weapon, but when startled, hurt, or when a victory is achieved, the NPC will take a 1/3 chance to switch to Secondary, and then a 1/3 to go back. It's pretty awesome. It just adds a whole new demention to the battle.
  19. I just don't think you spawn an NPC with a name "npc spawn jedi npcsp_jedi" run scripts that affect NPCs, etc. I'm not sure...@@eezstreet: are there any ICARUS fixes?
  20. Um I use mp/ffa1 for all testing, it's kinda freaky actually. I have the command devmap mp/ffa1 embroiled in my mind and I can type it and execute it before the game even starts lol. I'd love to support MP, and maybe I can adapt it for MP in a basic way (only the spawn commands are available, no way to kill, control, or player model) and you can't run scripts so Advanced mode won't work. That's why it's NpcSP because SP has a lot more flexibility when it comes to incorporating ICARUS and doing NPC stuff with console commands. I could make a NpcMP though...poke me when V2 is done. I'm working really hard and my goal is to have v2 out next week before school starts, so I can finish while I still have time and motivation.
  21. I guess for me being a canon fanatic, I couldn't except Anakin having an apprentice (I've heard arguments for it, and I'm kinda ok with it now, but it just deterred me from it initially). Of course the Clone Wars are now totally canon, but I just disliked a lot of the choices made (Brining Maul back, for example, revealing Sidious, etc). I'm sure it's great, especially as it progressed into later seasons, but I just had trouble with that initial metal block.
  22. While it's fine to share your opinion, please don't flat out insult other members who simply disagree with you.
  23. Interesting idea! A bit confused on how it would work though. There are just a handful of missions where you are even in contact with good guy force users. I can just think of Byss and Vjun off the top of my head. It could be easy to implement though using scripts. Add a script that checks the player's health, and if it gets too low, Kyle could do an animation and a heal sound with a "Take this, Jaden" or something like that and Jaden gets 50 health or something. I just don't know if you are with allies enough to really warrent that.
