  1. I've recently been replaying the OG game and just beat level 7 a week ago. I had a hard time figuring out what was going on - those interior halls did, indeed, feel like a Corellian ship (aka it reminded me of the opening of SW ANH), but there were Imperial-marked doors, so I didn't know if it was a Corellian ship that was perhaps inside a Star Destroyer, or what. Further, I was confused by the fact that your goal is to get to ANOTHER ship and leave a tracking device on it. Were you basically supposed to be cutting through this Corellian ship at the same dock to come out the other side and plant the tracking device? I think some kind of a 'blueprint' or mall style 'you are here' schematic (or series of schematics as you progress) would be super helpful.
  2. Honestly, if you could plug the missing gaps with straight-up ported geometry but, as you said create a completable game, I think that would be a HUG achievement.
  3. Interesting. Well, thanks for the update. Related question, I guess. The original mod promised you would hear "the original music exactly as the composer intended." I'm pretty sure I have this soundtrack, and it does sound like a much higher quality synth than what you hear in the original game. My question is... where does it come from? Did the team just run through original source material through better quality synthesizers, or what? I can't seem to find any details on this.
  4. I have been following the DF conversion mod since its conception, I think 2003. What is it going to take to get the mod "complete," even if "complete" just means being able to go through rough versions of all the levels with proper cutscenes and music? My understanding is the work is already more than halfway done. All the DF textures? Made. HUD? Made. DF original weapons? Made. Soundtrack ported in, new menu, rough skeletal outlines of each level, as far as my memory of the original website goes, all that is done already. What is missing is polish, enemy placement, various event triggers, detail, etc... But make no mistake, in 2008 when this 6 level demo was released, more than half the work to make the mod was already done. It's a life goal of mine to see the original mod finished. What would it take to get it there? I think the smartest and most realistic option is to finish what's already been started, where all the groundwork has already been laid. Is there *any chance* of this ever being finished, even if it's rough? Not talking specifically to the TC here, I'm talking to the community.
