09/01, should I be done?

khrondaz 09-16-2014 11:07 PM

Hi Lotrek,

I'm very pleased from your commitment. This game was a nice expirience for me as well. But I'm not sure if 1c will ever give us any answers.

1c was only the publisher of the game. The developer was Elite Games Team. One of their developers seems to be still active. Name Kalembas

http://www.elite-games.ru/conference...ic.php?t=42847

Maybe he will answer, if you wright him a pm.

greetings

Lotrek 10-01-2014 09:58 PM

Well thank you khrondaz. I continue this crusade for the sake of all the silent peoples that have enjoyed these games. I have yet to find a game that is similar that has been made in the last 5 years. So I keep the vigil going.

Remember remember, I'll be back in November.

wou 10-18-2014 01:18 PM

Glad to see some who still haven't lost all hope. Damn shame we can't even get any official answer, from anyone, even tried to mail 1C myself, no reply.
Who knows, maybe you'll at least earn some Guinness World Record for the longest game developer pestering :-P

Lotrek 11-01-2014 12:38 PM

Welcome Wou. I too doubt that the devs. will respond at this point since there probably is nothing positive for them to say.

There was a glimmer of hope that maybe we'd get a trick or treat yesterday but most likely it'll be a turkey at the end of this month.

Cya in December!

Lotrek 12-01-2014 06:01 AM

Here we are dear December.

A beginning of an end.

We are promised a new year

will the devs be a friend?

Fear not December

I'm here to stay.

Mark my words for tomorrow

Will be the day.

mazengd 12-22-2014 10:25 AM

might work if they make it for smart phones and tablets ;) since everyone is busy with those platforms nowadays :)) come on go go go

Lotrek 01-02-2015 10:23 PM

Sorry I'm a day late and a dollar short.

I can see the series ported to tablets, the interface would do well on touchscreen. Again, I would like to see them kickstart a third one in whatever version they could realistically do. I for one would promote the hell out of it.

Cya in Feb.

Just want to thank you for your one man crusade. I still get email notifications for this thread and your posts don't let me forget about this game. I hope one day you'll succeed. Best wishes for all who's still waiting for AoV or any other SW continuation.

Lotrek 02-02-2015 03:19 PM

Why thank you GW! The modding work you've done is one of the reasons I have been able to keep an interest in the game for so long. I see some people attempting to add story elements in other threads and I applaud them.

I delayed a day to see if Punxsutawney Phil's predictions included a reading on the future of the game. Long shot I know but it didn't seem like anything else I was doing was working. Sadly, the rodent was silent on this matter. :(

Cya all in March.

Lotrek 03-01-2015 11:55 AM

Hello all!

Well here we are in March. Little known fact about your pal Lotrek; my birthday falls within this month. Sooo, if the devs would like to give me a present, I can't think of anything better than some info.

Special shout out to nocalora29 and his excellent mod skills. If you have the itch to play SW3 again while you wait for info, I recommend his SW3.Expansion Mod. Development news can be found in the "Modding SW3" thread on this forum.

Cya in April.

nocalora29 03-03-2015 02:41 PM

@Lotrek
 
Is there some Thing that you really would like to see in SW?, I Would like to fulfill you an Birthday wish ^^

legojoe1 03-18-2015 02:11 AM

Still waiting on the someday revival of this game.

Played through the entire game from start to end like 3 times. Love this game. Bought this 9/17/2013 according to Steam.

Lotrek 04-01-2015 10:42 AM

@nocalora29 - Thanks for the offer, sorry I didn't see t until now. Just keep up the good work on your expansion. I like the new sig, makes it look real, I would suggest making a link to your post that states what the mod does.

Anyway......

April 1 and I feel the fool for hoping that march would bring some news :(

Cya all in May - (May)be we'll get an update (groan)

Lotrek 05-01-2015 03:52 PM

May day May day - SOS - Somebody please respond!

nocalora29 05-01-2015 09:05 PM

Reporting for Duty, Sir.

Im also still waiting for the day an Admin/Mod/Dev actually to do what they are supposed to do and answering allready with an simple answer...

..until then We will not rest ...

Nanaki 05-02-2015 07:48 PM

I am still checking in, for what that is worth. :3

Lotrek 06-01-2015 06:20 PM

@ nocalora29 - Salute!

@ Nanaki - Worth a lot to me - to 1c ehh, not so much.

@ 1C - WTF

RT2 06-08-2015 12:35 AM

LoLz....
 
Well Here I am again, and I might as well say something.

Just so everyone knows they are not alone. :D

I get the feeling Star Wolves Universal Conflict will end up in the HW Remastered Engine, before Star Wolves Ashes of Victory is out. :P

Be safe People. :)

ArtekXDPL 07-14-2015 09:19 AM

When Im mind about Star Wolves 3: Ashes of Vistory, Im cry! :( Why? Becouse this series of game is awesome! And developer not create this game! :(
I go cry!

Lotrek 07-31-2015 01:37 PM

Hmm decided to try something different this month and post on the Last day instead of the first just to see if anyone noticed. Sadface :(

Cya um tomorrow I guess.

nocalora29 07-31-2015 07:26 PM

Oh Noes!
How could I not realize!, damnit... Way too sneaky for me.
I hope this does not lead to a Shitstorm... O.o

Hey there Tom how's the weather looking for this thread?

Not good Gene, not good at all. We've got high winds coming in from the East and a storm full of shit headed our way.

http://www.everydaynodaysoff.com/wp-...weatherman.jpg

That's not good Tom, not good at all.


@Admin: Rename thread to "Star Wolves 3: Development in Ashes" - oh wait, there are no Admins... silly me.

EDIT:

BTW: What do you think about StarSector? its an pretty awesome pre-alpha Game, which allready has an huge Modding community in it.

When I finish my Mod (most likely v1.1 - v1.3), I'll probably switch my modding to this Game, since Star Wolves is pretty much Dead.
Since it is still pre-alpha, it still has an very long life-time, in matters of Community and support of *cough* developers *cough*.

I could totally see myself Doing an Star Wolves Mod in StarSector hehe.

One thing I like about this game is that -
This game has some similarities to Star wolves, maybe they even took some inspiration from it. since there are is an Faction "Tri-Tachyon" which has the SAME description and same motives as of the InoCo, they specialize in AI Development, Laser Technologies, always use the mod Advanced Stuff available, etc. and to top it all off, the default color their ships use is Blue... there even is an Similar faction to the USS, which is the "Hegemony".

definitely something worth to look at.

Lotrek 08-01-2015 04:26 AM

Hah! Here I go again.

@nocalora29: Sorry no, can't say I've heard of it. I took a quick look on that link and I am intrigued. For $15 it may be worth a look but the generic pay site is kinda scary.

"Star Wolves 3: Development in Ashes" - Good, I can feel your anger. ... Let the hate flow through you.

nocalora29 08-01-2015 04:40 AM

Currently you can still download it from their site here
http://fractalsoftworks.com/preorder/

just click on download for windows, it isn't password/serial protected whatsoever

Probably a bug, it won't last long.

Take it as an "Full Extended Demo"

Lotrek 09-01-2015 12:58 PM

Hello all!
First off @nocalora29: I bought the game and got my $10.00 worth for sure but it has little to do with Star Wolves other than being set in space. I enjoyed it but the lack of a story or purpose other that being stronger for strength sake got kinda old. I got more life with Starsector Plus Nexerelin and Faction mods but it is on the shelf until the next game patch. I do recommend it for anyone who reads this thread.

OK, so now to the monthly wine grind. Devs? *tap* *tap* *rattles cage* news? C'mon someone is paying for this server board to be open. Hell just tell me to piss off already and stop nagging I'd be cool with that. Much love - ME

nocalora29 09-04-2015 12:01 PM

@Lotrek
 
Glad you enjoy the game as much as I do, it may not have to do very much with SW, but its one of the few Space games kinda Remind me of it.
+The Devs are extremely Passionate guys that are Actively talking to the Community on their Forum, something 1C Company is Incompetent to do as we can See. (I Don't even have any fear of getting Banned for saying this, its obvious they DO NOT check these Forums)

Development is kinda Slow at the moment, but atleast they actually Care about what they do with the Game, judging by this if they will Implement a Story-mode, it is probably gonna be Awesome.
AND I Agree, Nexerlin ROCKS.

Anyway, any favourite games you're waiting to finish development atm? (except sw3:aov :grin:)

My personal favourite would be SPAZ2.

@Nike-it
yo, if you were so kind to announce this game some Years ago, would you also be so nice and just make another post telling it is "CANCELLED" thats 9 letters!, can't be that hard!

nocalora29 09-26-2015 08:28 AM

I don't even know anymore...
 
The silence.... its quiet.. too quiet.
oh right its just the Star Wolves forum.

Since all this forum is now is an Advanced Chat utility seemingly, maybe I can announce that I released some personal tools that I use, in the Sig.

one of these Include an functioning GUI Slot Creator[SWX.Patcher], without it, I could have never made the Hurricane's GUI with over 100 Turrets. Source is also Included to everyone wanting to modify it, it is coded in VB.NET using the .NET Framework 4.5.1

anyways...
Hey Lotrek, lets play Tic-Tac-Toe, I'll start

[X] [ ] [ ]
[ ] [ ] [ ]
[ ] [ ] [ ]

... I can't believe that I try to play this game on a Games grave.
<dramaticmusicactive>what have I become?</dramaticmusicactive>

BTW:
Do you like the Idea of Enemy AI Opponents or "Agents" which can also gain power and will eventually become a threat to the Player?, they also Move as you move to other Systems, eventually they start tracking you when they are confident enough to Fight, and when an specific function detects their current location is where the player is... well then the spawn in from another portal (hopefully not yours) and Move to the Player's MS Location, of course with intention to pick a Fight.
I recently started working on this, even tho I can't test my Code too well, but it is possible alongside with the other Basebuilding Script.

They aren't like other npc fleets, their Information is actually Saved, and have an Mothership, their Strength, their amount of Fleets and their Current Location on the universe is Saved in variables.
They get basically get "Updated" on their Location each time the Player changes systems, but ofc they dont just go from corrino to charon or something like that, they also go from their current system to the next one that is Connected to theirs.
Also: they won't just Become "+1" Stronger, their Gained Strength is being calculated with help of Random number Generation, to add a bit of variety to the Agents, so they don't have the exact same Fleet amount and Equipment Quality(Strength) everytime you encounter them.

Atleast there will be actually be "Danger" and "Threat" to the Player after he has Endgame Equipment and Perks.
It will also be Completely Configurable, from RNG to Default settings in the InitTeamScript.script file, which I treat as an Configuration file in my Mod.
aaaand you can also influence your Relations with the "Agents", I plan to create maybe 7 Agents at the start of the game, all start with Neutral Relations to you, but as Story scripts are getting executed I plan to make 1 or 2 to become Aggressive towards you.

I would like to know what you think of this.

Lotrek 10-01-2015 01:49 PM

First things first:
[X] [ ] [ ]
[ ] [O] [ ]
[ ] [ ] [ ]

Advanced chat function on: Yes the addition of an enemy to fear would make it less predictable for those of us with multiple play-throughs. May be a bit much for someone more casual so a configurable menu at start is a good idea. When you say you'll have multiple agents, will they all be a new faction or somehow tied in with the various game factions. If the latter I would suggest color-coding them according to which faction they belong to:

Green - New Empire
Blue - InoCo corporation
Orange - Old Empire
Yellow - USS corporation
Red - Triad corporation
Black - neutral, controlled by either pirates or separatist
(* Credit Trucidation)

My main concern is them somehow appearing during the campaign and really messing things up. I can think of a couple times where either stealth is key or where a friendly faction turns hostile if you attack anything in their systems. Overall a worthy pursuit and I will help beta test it if you need.

OK now then to my monthly rant - C'mon devs what's it gonna be this month, trick or treat? I suspect trick but I blindly hope for treat.

... its getting INTENSE IN HERE!.
--
I didn't thought about that until now, I thought I'd make them just Neutral, but it seems like an Nice Idea, I think I'll also make an RNG-Function which decides what Faction these Agents are on, but I'll probably Force the game to have atleast 2 Neutral-Faction Agents via some IF's

--

Don't worry about them interrupting your Story, I will just let the tracking function decide about it if the player is in an Important Mission(Escort, Ending, Stealth) or not.

But just for the lulz im gonna make it Configurable, imagine just an overpowered Agent entering one of the ending missions (Especially the berserk one in New-Kyoto)... the Lag would be Real.

--

I don't really know tho how I am gonna make them to be able to Change Relations to the Player, ofc if you attack them they are gonna be Pissed, but what would be the best way to Establish an "Alliance"?.

Would be making an "Contact with Agent" sub-menu in the Maintance Station's be enough?, or do you have any Ideas on how the player is supposed to change Relations to Neutral, Alliance/Friendly?.

-- (I love these seperators, they look so damn fancy)

Color coding?, You mean how they are represented in Text or their Ship's Textures?, If you mean the Textures I could make the spawning functions Easly decide what kinds of ships they will be using (Meaning _pl0, _ino, _uss and so on)

Did Trucidation come up with this Idea?, props to him, when did he ever suggested something like that?.

*We briefly interrupt this Chat for a Childrens-Story*
Code:

Once upon a time... where an Publisher existed, named 1C Company.
They were the best People around, helping an Developer Team named X-Box to Create their best game yet(and maybe last) holding the name of Star Wolves.
It was a Wonderful game, with the Modding Community greatly involved due to its Accessible Resource Files, but then something happened, and X-Bow changed...
They made an Sequel to the Game, which has been Cursed by the Evil powers of Greed, and they finally vanished off the world(website gone).
Now, the remaining Forces which would be able to Program another Sequel to the SW Series would only be the Elite-Games-Team, People greatly speculated if they fucked up, or just made an Worthy succcessor, but in the end, the Hope we had in it... has been.... mmmm'kay(See what I did the... **** it), but forreal, in the End, it has been an Good Game. BUT THEN(Dramatic music plz insert herr), An So EPIC GAME NOBODY HAS EVER SEEN BEFORE WITH CRYSIS 10 GRAPHICS AND OPEN-SOURCE AND DEV-TOOLS FEATURES HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED AND IT WAS... oh wait
it never got released, didn't it?... well ****.
Story-Teller: What the actualy ****, is this? YOU ARE BROADCASTING THIS SHIT AS AN CHILDRENS-TALE? WHAT THE ACTUAL ****?
Producer: Yeah I--
Story-Teller: ****. YOU. Im Outta here! *smashes door*
Technician: Ummm Childrens Story over!

* Over *

I just realized something, did they just Implement the Censoring of Curse words but they FAILED to do it properly?
**** <- Gets censored: 'F'U'C'K'
SHIT <- Does not get censored. LOL

1C really are on the Next Level, holy shit.

nocalora29 10-28-2015 10:27 PM

@More Off-Topic
 
Heres some more off Topic stuff, A Rant if you wish:
<rant>

Have you all seen how the Gaming Industry got so perverted?, like almost every goddamn game needs hundreds of DLC, look at Battlefront!, EA cut most of the f-u-c-k-i-n-g Content out, like Seriously...

This is messed up in several ways, and they charge people 60-120$ for that Shit!, how can people still tolerate that?, I would never pay so much for broken game... What is happening to Games nowadays?, I have a feeling it will only get worse.

Heres another sample: Creative Assembly's Warhammer: The cut one of the 5 main Races out of the game, and plan to sell it seperately(Chaos Race)... thats like if you would Remove the InoCo in SW3 and sell them as an DLC, including the additional Storyline paths!.

I don't know about you all, but I think that Gaming has just become the absolute hugest Money-grabbing Shitfest ever, thats one of the main reasons I don't Buy games nowadays, I only use KAT.cr/Pirate Bay to get Quality games, The only Games which would still kinda deserve Money are limited, I think GTAV/and some more few Deserve it, but aside from these AAA Game I don't know any other games which would Deserve the money too.

*Updated List
Electronic Arts
Sega
Activision
Capcom

These Publishers/Devs are probably one of the main Problems in the Industry, and I really hope they get Bankrupt someday soon, which most likely won't happen... but I can Dream, can't I?. "No. That's 9,99$ for the Dream DLC!"

Im not even including the badly programmed Indie games that creep up on Steam greenlight, don't get me started on that shit.
</rant>

Now I wonder, whats your Opinion on this?, I would really like to hear it from you all.

nocalora29 11-18-2015 04:24 AM

@kokain_jtp
 
huh?, ashes of victory? whats that?

Jokes aside, we all can pretty much remember the good o'l times when this game still flourished, but its ded now sadly. all we can do is Mod the game now, and or Do Off-topic talk, which I personally like to do both.

Maybe 1C Jumps onto the Hype train of space games once Star Citizen gets out and (HOPEFULLY) will be a Major hit in the gaming industry which will probably motivate other Publishers/Devs to also make Space games, but when 1C does not jump onto it, this game will stay ded longer than we may Think, lets all hope for the best.

This may be the last chance this game gets...

Lotrek 12-01-2015 05:28 PM

OK first off:
[X] [O] [X]
[ ] [O] [O]
[ ] [X] [ ]

@kokain_jtp: Well what would you like to talk about. I am sure we can hold a snappy convo between the few of us left. Personally, I'd love to hear of any similar game out there that allow you to have a mothership and fighters with RPG elements.

@nocalora29: DLC is shameless only because the player base allows it, hell they suck it up. If people told companies with their wallets instead of their troll postings, companies would pay attention. EA could care less that you do not like it, they care if you don't buy it.

I am fine with expansion packs where a group of coders extended the game past its release play time. That should be a paid expense on the players part. I am also OK with silly trivial things like a fancy hat collection DLC that you can opt to pay for but does not effect the actual game in any other way. What I abhor is the practice of "day 1 DLC" that was clearly items or content that was purposely cut from a game in order to sneak in a price hike.

OK so back to business: An ode to Star Wolves:

We wait in anticipation
We suffer in frustration
Dev's stare at my posts in procrastination
Do you suffer from constipation?
I beg of you give us some confirmation
Before i give up in deflation :(

My idea for the new part of Star Wolves
 
(sorry for all mistakes)
Hello.
If you destroy enemy ships, they drop part of guns, systems, missiles, engines, armour/shield and module part. You maybe ask „Why i Got this junk?” I got a idea to add into specialization tree some skills, that can you create new types of guns, missiles or change you ships. Of course this skills cost 100-150 skill point for each one (one skill for creating new guns, changing ships and for other). If you want to create a new type of gun you need to do research (you need to check standard guns [those guns you can buy in shop] for example how Gatling or Mortal is builded you must stay in the dock of you mothership for one fly across sector).
1. Gun Parts – if you do research for example Alien Gun, Gatling Turret, Rapier Turret and Alien Gun Parts
* First option - you can connect Alien Gun with Gatling Turret and Alien Gun Parts and you got turret with faster shooting Alien Gun
* Second option – you can connect Alien Gun with Rapier Turret and Alien Gun Parts and you got low damage Alien Laser Turret (Low Damage because Rapier Turret have low damage, if you have better turret you got better damage)
2. System Parts – you will be somebody like Phantom in Star Wolves 1, create new systems for ships or upgrade old systems
3. Missiles Parts – you can create you own Missile Launcher for example you connect Starshark with Alien Missile who „Eating Armor” you got 2 missiles who take damage and after this eat some ship armor.
4. Engine Parts – you can add for some ships better engines, change them or update to make them faster, of course engine looks is changing too.
5. Armour and Shield Parts – you can add some armour to you ship (but not mothership) or increase shield for example you research Alien Armour and Shield Parts you can add faster shield repairing or increase shield poins (only one of this options can be add). But if you increase armour you ship will be slower (for example 5 % for first and second generation of ships, 10% for second and four generation and 15% for five generation). Of course better ship generation, more armour added.
6. Module Parts – for example you have Excalibur (standart have 2 systems, 2 missiles and one heavy gun). You can change stardart modules into 2 systems and 2 heavy guns but This Excalibur now will be second generation of ships
I create a list, what maximum number of modules (guns/missiles/systems) you can have in each generation
1. Heavy Gun -1, Light Gun – 2, Missiles – 2, Systems -3, Maximum number of modules- 5
2. Heavy Gun - 2, Light Gun – 4, Missiles – 2, Systems -3, Maximum number of modules- 7
3*. Heavy Gun -2, Light Gun – 4, Missiles – 4 Systems -3, Maximum number of modules- 8
4. Heavy Gun -3, Light Gun – 4, Missiles – 4, Systems -4, Maximum number of modules- 8
5**. Heavy Gun -4, Light Gun – 6, Missiles – 6, Systems -4, Maximum number of modules- 9

* on this and better generations you can have Light Gun and Heavy Gun on the same ship
** I believe they (or community) create ship with more Light Guns and Missiles for example 6 Light Gun and 3 Systems or 6 Missiles 2 Light Gun and 1 System
This is my one of some ideas i got in last time. Recently, quite often I play this game. What are you think about this idea?

The first person to decode this gets an Cookie (and maybe something other...)

Lotrek 04-04-2016 03:17 PM

Gave a couple days to see if an April fools post appeared. Nada, more the fool me :(

Lotrek 05-01-2016 11:24 AM

Brothers, please don’t look so sad,
Nocolora29 please don’t cry.
We are in the forums of 1C
Hello all it's me
You know, "that guy".

Please do not try to question Devs,
don’t think they are unkind.
They only set up this thread
And then changed their mind.

You see, they are special
and are needed on other games.
I’m the annoying child,
who monthly calls them names.

I’ll always be there with you.
So watch the sky at night.
Find the brightest star that’s gleaming.
That’s my Mothership's brilliant light.

So Pilots please don’t look so sad.
Goblin Wizard please don’t cry.
I am the monthly reminder.
that reminds them of their lie.

nocalora29 05-01-2016 11:39 AM

Beutiful, just... Beutiful

Nice work Lotrek,

but i am sure that AOV will be never released. Star Wolves is sadly one of dead series of games like Airline Tycoon. I am sincerely hoping that in future, there will be made some game like Star Wolves.

nocalora29 05-01-2016 01:42 PM

This game series is dead aslong 1C Owns the rights, did you look at what they are dealing with nowadays?, look at their YT Channels its full of Smartphone apps and shit.

How low can you go...

Hal2003 05-01-2016 02:01 PM

Yep we must wait for 1C departure or miracle when some will buy the rights for Star Wolves serie.

Edit:

Just looked at 1C EU financial result for 2015 they made 6,67 mio CZK loss. Loks like they have not profit to fiance new games.

Nanaki 05-03-2016 01:00 AM

I am sad that I am not included in the song.

nocalora29 05-03-2016 09:59 AM

@Lotrek
 
Rewrite, ASAP!

Lotrek 05-05-2016 11:56 AM

Nanaki can you see
With yout right eye scarred
Random contacts enveloping me
As I fight no holds barred

Lotrek 06-02-2016 06:41 PM

OK so words are ineffectual.
But can you resist a sleeping panda?

********************SURPRISE!!!!****************** ***************
I am a day early and I am sure I startled the devs into action! I'll be back tomorrow and there better be a reply from an official type.

Or else......

P.S. Hello Wou!

nocalora29 06-30-2016 08:26 PM

.... or else THERE ARE GOING TO BE EVEN MORE SLEEPING PANDERS!!!! ARGH.

Lotrek 07-01-2016 10:05 AM

Ok I warned you, you cannot say I did not warn you. I was not going to go to this extreme this soon but what nocalora29 asks for, nocalora29 gets if it is within my powers.

Behold the "Panda"monium of cuteness no game developer can deny. Developers this is on your heads:

@ Goblin Wizard
i have little question out of this funeral - how you managed to register here? (http://starrover.ru/forum/ucp.php?mode=register)
registering dialog refuse my email, i found message - if you have problem - contact administrator, but i not found way, how to do.

nocalora29 08-01-2016 06:30 PM

@Lotrek
 
I Wonder where he is... maybe 1C's secret service got him :O?

After these terrorist attacks with the panda's and that... I hope hes OK...

Lotrek 08-01-2016 08:27 PM

OH Nocalora29 they tried, they did indeed
To make them tell their plans is my creed
Pandas pandas everywhere
Could not lay their secrets bare
Every month I blab and pester
To only find I am just a jester
Those silly devs cannot silence me
For in these forums they are absentee

nocalora29 08-01-2016 08:35 PM

Phew, got a little worried there!

Lotrek 09-04-2016 10:34 AM

I think their apathy got to me, 3 days into the month before I remember to poke at them. Why I still do this I am not sure. Please 1C - something, anything.

Lotrek 10-01-2016 04:49 PM

Here I am October 1
In the mood for spooky fun
Will they trick, will they treat?
More like we'll have to smell their feet

Of this game I wish some news
If the devs ever stop their snooze
Nocalora's mod will keep me going
But my impatience, well it is growing

So please dear devs in this month of ghosts
We still await to see your posts

nocalora29 10-01-2016 10:52 PM

Your poetry skill really are something amazing, it burns a smile in my face everytime I read it :D

Lotrek 10-31-2016 09:48 PM

Boo!!

Lotrek 11-01-2016 07:19 AM

@nocalora29 *blush*
@devs Really, nothing?

November is here my friends
What happens now really depends
On the team that has been silent so far
I wonder where their balls are

Lotrek 11-15-2016 12:09 PM

Mid month madness!!!!!

Trying something new this time - a word or 2 on this release. People think I am insane for keeping these pester posts going but it just shows there is still interest. There are not any games similar to the SW series out there and it could be a nice market for a game that seems like it was mostly done.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooo
Please, 1C reply if even to say hi.

nocalora29 11-15-2016 11:10 PM

............and port the game to the CryEngine3 or UnrealEngine 4 or any other newer engine while you're at it, 1C.

I would love me some Star Wolves on Cry Engine 3 though, the fps and graphics would be real.

Which games exactly do you have in mind?

GrimreaperDK 11-16-2016 10:33 PM

Really?
 
This forum is still alive?? even now? it thrills me. i see that Lotrek is still relentless :), keep up the spirit;)

Lotrek 11-21-2016 08:30 PM

OH hello GW, nice to see you still checking in.

I believe my choice of grammar was maybe confusing. The point I was making was that there are no other games currently that are of the same type as Star Wolves.

I admit there are space sims, some good some bad. As to the game I have in mind is where you have a mobile base with fighter docks, all upgradeable with NPC characters that are given a basic RPG training path and a multi branching campaign. Also, the perspective of a game that was not produced in America is a flavor I enjoy.

If you know of one, please share. I have tried a few that looked like they would be alike but they fell flat for me.

Lotrek 12-01-2016 07:42 PM

December comes and so do I
Asking why the devs are so shy?
Another month waiting for info that's new
Here I am calling out to you
I'll go outside to enjoy the winter snow
As I await the promise of news, made so long ago

Lotrek 01-01-2017 09:40 AM

Will 2017 be the year
We get some news so dear?

Lotrek 02-02-2017 10:32 PM

Another month past
I don't know why
I'd think different from the last
But I try and try
Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Should this be my final goodbye?

nocalora29 02-05-2017 12:46 AM

Last goodbye?, that doesn't seem right...

Hey Lotrek, Geez, I haven't been on here in probably years I think. Nice to see some are still hopeful (I guess I am as well, lol). Thought I'd just drop by an check in for the hell of it, but as silence from the powers that be seem to rule, still doesn't look good. Actually just recently picked up SW2 off GOG, and while I know it's for the most part broken, I am firing it up, and giving it a try anyways to help sate my Star Wolves yearning. Cool to see you still checking in bro...Cheers

Lotrek 03-01-2017 10:43 AM

Well who am I to give in when Nocalora29 is still hanging in there.

March
Arch
Starch
Larch
Parch

Perhaps my obliqueness will have them scratching their heads enough to reply.

Zoltan 03-01-2017 04:53 PM

Hey, good to see you guys still around. Been quite a while for me, just dlld and started playing SW2 for the first time, as I was missing some SW in my gaming life, and thought I'd stick my head in to see what's up. Wish there was something....*anything* news worthy to read, but ah well. Keep the faith guys, I am. Even if it's for naught....

nocalora29 03-02-2017 12:22 PM

@Zoltan
 
Well I try my best to stick around, but as you can see its almost a private forum for like 4 people lmao.

Zoltan 03-03-2017 02:32 PM

Heh heh, yeah..you know what? We need a bar in here, where we can have a beer, and maybe some chips and nuts to snack on when we visit ;-)

oxygenes 03-04-2017 12:44 PM

"Well I try my best to stick around, but as you can see its almost a private forum for like 4 people lmao."

All things are changing, you too, independly of your will. There comes new games, new duties, new weakness, you know it... It would be strange, if not. I not played sw long time, just time to time check this page.

Lotrek 04-01-2017 01:43 PM

Star Wolves 3: Ashes of Victory is a stand-alone expansion, the third game in the Star Wolves saga. Original large-scale scenario, closely tied with the first part of the intergalactic epic, helps players influence the ongoing events and affect one of many endings. Free roaming, free mission selection, free team forming – the world of Star Wolves waits for its heroes.

The epic saga continues. The last years of the Old Empire were soaked in corruption, piracy and the bloody conflicts which led to its demise. The so-long-awaited peace and order never returned to the Outer Worlds. The New Empire withstood heavy losses in the decisive battles of the Civil War and was forced to retreat to the Phoenix Sector. The clan feud cut the Triad Corporation into two irreconcilable camps. The attempt of an inner coup bled InoCo to near death. The entire systems fell under the control of pirates, and the allies of the former Emperor Ezar, who are trying to enforce terror and chaos in the worlds that would not obey them. The confrontation between various fractions escalates day by day, and a single spark is enough to set the Universe ablaze again.
  • Improved graphics with carefully preserved esthetics of the original game.
  • Large-scale scenario to cover more than 110 stellar systems.
  • Thoroughly re-worked tactical and role-playing systems.
  • New protagonists and NPCs, well-known from the previous games of the series.
  • New factions, ships, weapons and equipment.

nocalora29 04-01-2017 11:07 PM

@Lotrek: I have been waiting for that, to be honest lmao

Lotrek 04-03-2017 03:18 AM

I figured if a dev wont post an update, I could at least April fool troll one :)

nocalora29 04-03-2017 04:23 PM

There is not, by chance, anyone who can understand russian well enough to translate this question to me?

Какой по счету Уран от Солнца? - via google translate I got: What is the account of Uranus from the Sun?

via some other translation the question was: What Bank account does Uranus have? and that just doesn't make any ******* sense.

So I figure'd I ask here.
Im trying to get an Account in the EGT Site to ask some questions regarding the IMD Plugin and Exporter source code, I allready sent 1C an email regarding the problematics of owning the source code and they said they don't really care about it.

Im trying my chances here.

EDIT: And anyone knows what kind of "password" I need to use in the security question at the StarRover site?
These questions are ridiculous.

I didn't buy it for a second...but I none-the-less enjoyed it :-D

nocalora29 04-16-2017 12:53 AM

I just noticed something, call me late, but isn't the "12" above the Hangar on the MSF Ramadanta not a Reference to Bay12Games? (Dwarf Fortress)

How did I never notice that...

nocalora29 04-25-2017 02:44 PM

The Star Wolves Text Encryption Key
 
I've made a short journey to find something in the exe of the game, but by accident, I found this: "WE56DK8FY766DSDkjjsd78hy43" which must be the Encryption key used by the game to decrypt the text in the localized quests folder.

Not sure how to apply it, but thats surely one step closer into finding out how to decrypt the text of these loc files. Thoght someone would care, so I'd posted it here.

Might consider making an decryption utility after I get the big projects done. would be fun.

pls dont sue me

= TECHNICAL INFO =
THIS ONLY IS COMPARABLE TO THE SW3CWEXP-8xFix.exe PROVIDED BY THE MOD, THE VANILLA GAME DOES NOT HAVE THE CORRECT OFFSETS!
Key Address (Origin of ASCII Text): 720A04
Decryption Function at Address: 00402320 [Arg1: Decryption Key, Arg2: Object to Decrypt]

Lotrek 05-01-2017 11:52 PM

Mayday Mayday
To all devs in range please respond
I am loosing all drive containment and require immediate assistance!

Hal2003 05-22-2017 08:18 PM

Lotrek 06-01-2017 11:58 AM

June 1

nocalora29 06-01-2017 12:12 PM
