    TSL Restoration Project: The Phantom Deadline

    in Star Wars: General Discussion

    Posted

    Now that's grrrreat!

    I concur. Thanks, Dash. :thumbsup:

     

    I'm waiting. (quite) Patiencly. :shifty:

    Well, I suppose I can wait. And you misspelled "Patiently", Accept. Lord almighty...

     

    there there, everyone's not as skilled in english as you mate :lol:

     

    Work harder dashus! :p

     

    that project's supposed to be done by summer! :bat:

     

    And it's May so they have six months.

     

    That depends on where you live so to speak... :D

    What you couldn't do/say in KotOR II...

    in Star Wars: General Discussion

    Posted

    Number One thing I would have liked is a lot more back story. Like who the heck is Atris in the first place and what was she to the exile? generally more character background for ALL the main and primary characters.

     

    Number Two? Well... more choice one who the heck got to join the party to save (or destroy) the galaxy. I'll admit I'm a guy, and for some reason I'll play mostly as a female in most RPG games that I play. I'll also come out and say I hate the disciple, G0-T0 and Atton, I really want to shove them all into the nearest black hole.

     

    Number Three... HK-47, I love that droid and hate that it takes forever to get him working. The things he says are the best things ever, well not really but there still good. So I wanted HK back sooner.

     

    Number fOuR: Freedom of Choice (well in the romances at least and well maybe some dialog). Now I know that this is gonna causes problems but... I believe that the person should be able to decide who they are going to have a romance with regard less of sex. I'm straight, and I respect everyone's choice in how they go about their lives and I believe that it should be up to the person to how they play a game. But regardless of that, please GOD OH GOD NOT ATTON! I really want to force choke that guy.

     

    Five (Number);)

    THE CUT CONTENT!

     

    There is no number 6 at least not now, but anyway I like freedom in my game play. I understand that some people won't agree with what I put up here, but thats ok with me. As to something I believe was said earlier about how that lack of background in the game was there on purpose, thats true and yeah I get why that was done but me I like background, it fleshes out the story making the world seem more real. Anyway back to writing on a fanfiction I've been working on...

    Real Lightsabers?

    in Star Wars: General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by ZeroDark9

    I'm just gonna say this, Lightsabers could be defined as a form of plasma, Okay? So to make a lightsaber you would have to have the tech to, 1) Control the flow of plasma, 2) have some sort of way to make the plasma{though it is possible to use a magnectic field to contain air particles and use those, but in that case it wouldnt work in space :ermm: }, and 3) control the shape of the plasma. Oh and dont forget 4) a power supply strong enough to power the darn thing.

     

    I do know how ever that you could say I "lightsaber"(in a sense) has already been made, however since i am to lazy to find the webpage i'll just type out what it was. Basiclly for this "lightsaber", if i remember correctly made a blade 10cm long (i could be wrong about the length of it), however it required a huge amount of energy plus the equipment that made the "blade" was also pretty big (I'm talking bigger than a car). But thats not the point it is possible just to make one to the SW universe standard is not possible with our current tech.

    I hope the thread author understands that there's a mile of difference between a professional and some dolt who has a hobby and calls school 'useless'.

     

    Really, the best way to get anwers is to PM one of the devs. As it's not about upcoming games or "omg, I wtn pixx!!11", you're  likely to get answers that way.

     

     

    I am trying to get Professional and Amateur people to have a wide base. And I have PM'ed a dev.

    Hyperspace Travel

    Wouldn't there be some sort of action-reaction thing though that would prevent the Earth's orbit from actually changing, since everyone in China is orbitting too?

     

    Not that I'm sure it would matter.....

     

    Mass of earth is about 6.0 x 10^24 kg

    Average mass of man is 70 kg

    I'm going to ignore kids and women, which will give the estimate a high bias....

     

    1.3 billion people in China x 70 kg = 9.1 x 10^10 kg

     

    Which is roughly 0.000000000000015 or 1.5 x 10^-14 Earth Masses, or 1.5 x 10^-12 % of Earth's Mass.

     

    I doubt it'd be significant, even if they could push off with a force equalling a few times their body weight.

     

     

     

    Although I would still contend that we are a closed system and even if we were to all jump it wouldn't make much of a difference.  I would think you'd need something exceptionally energetic (like Nukes or something....but even then) to make an impact on the orbit of the Earth.

     

    But I'm just speculating....I haven't taken Astronomy in a little while.

     

     

    Did you also add the height of the jump and how fast they were falling(9.8m/s^2)?

    This would give a more accurate discription of the force need. Even though it would need to be against the sun.

     

     

     

    My thought's on "hyperspace" not lightspeed is finding a dimension that is pararell to ours and opening a "Gateway" of sorts, wither this to be a permantent or just a rift that was ripped open by brute force or munipulated at a quantium level, to this universe and be able once in to putch back out. i am not going into the math required as I am out of School for the summer and I've had enough of it till next year, so feel free to tear or support this.

     

    just for those of you who haven't taken a science class recently means basicly to get to the speed of light, you would need to increase the energy to propel a object of mass to reach the speed of light but to do that you would need to increase the mass of the ship and this would continue intill you hit invinite

    Conspiracies: Are they real?

    in Way Off-Topic

    Posted

    i think that any conspiracies use people like you to get people to speculate so disinformation is spread and therefor hiding their true purpose.

     

    Oddly i'm writing a story about something like this.  o:)

     

    Is this in reference to me? :- Because I don't really believe in any of the conspiracies. I think they are interesting, but I take them with a grain of salt. I just wanted to know what you guys thought about all the ones that are floating around these days.

     

    :ph34r: but you also got us started on this, so you are spreading it. But yeah i believe that there are grains of truth in them and mostly bs

     

    oh and i agree with you Calax

    Name for fanfic

    in Star Wars: General Discussion

    Posted

    Female names please

    Oh and sorry if this is the wrong place since it is a little off topic. But it is KOTOR.

    This isn't really the place for fanfiction stuff... :ermm:

    You might get more replies if you posted this here: Link

     

    Could you give us a character description?

    Thanks I forgot about that site. :)

    And not yet on the character description :ph34r:

     

     

    Maybe you should generate a name from K1 or K2 and use that.  :p

    That's kind of what I did... Well, actually, I randomly generated names until I found a first and last name I liked -- Jena Shel -- and started playing the game. It was only after playing for a little while that I started thinking about writing fanfic... so the next logical step was to use the name I was already using in my game.

     

    If I were to make a suggestion, I would tell you to stay far away from "Mercury Darkstar". For one thing, the planet (and likely, the deity) Mercury doesn't exist in their galaxy, so the name doesn't make a hell of a whole lot of sense. For another, Mercury is actually the very MALE Roman god of communications (amongst other things).

     

    And no offense, but to be quite honest, if I were to start reading fan fiction, only to discover that the heroine's name is Mercury Darkstar, I would likely cringe and contemplate not reading the rest. It's a bit TOO romantic of a name. Unless, of course, you're planning on turning your story into a KOTOR Harlequin romance novel... "Mercury swooned and Atton swept her up in his big, manly, strong arms. 'I love thee, dearest,' he murmured into her ear..."

     

    *reaches for barf bag*

    I'll properly do that generate the names that is. And most of these were just off the top of head, and Jeopardy so.....

     

     

    Thanks for the feedback :):)
