The portraits look great next to each other. It's coming along well, Cassie!

[Cassiebsg]

Thanks Gurok.
I've actually been wondering if Jarl is that small and white when compared with the rest of the cast.

Decided to add an achievements page for those that like to keep track of what they have accomplished and are still missing (considering there's a bunch of multiple choices that lead to slightly different outcomes).

Improved Adama's portait a little bit. Am fairly happy with it now.

Me too
I like how the others turned as well. Gives me a push to made a 3D game

[Cassiebsg]

Last 2... sorry for the delay, but haven't done much since last post.


The waiter and Athena (hope it's better now Jwalt? ).

The waiter and Athena (hope it's better now Jwalt? ).

Both look great to me. My complaint about Athena was never about the modeling, just about the shadow beneath her chin, which is now gone. :-)

[NickyNyce]

Looking good. Better yet, they look great, especially the girl.

[AnasAbdin]

Looking good. Better yet, they look great, especially the girl.

I agree, Athena looks great the light angle is cool 

[Cassiebsg]

Thanks guys!
Though, now that I look at her, I realize I lost her star again...

[SilverSpook]

Great job!  Yeah I agree, very interesting lighting choices.

RIP Apollo (Richard Hatch)

[Cassiebsg]

Ewwww....
Not the kind of news I was expecting to find when getting home.

On the brightish side though, it sounds like he had a great time in his life:

"In my case, 'Battlestar Galactica' was a milestone," he wrote on his personal website. "It afforded me the opportunity to live out my childhood dreams and fantasies. Hurtling through space with reckless abandon, playing the dashing hero, battling Cylons, monsters and super-villains -- what more could a man want?"

As well as being a role-model hero for a generation of children (he sure was for me!) what more could one ask for from life really?

[Cassiebsg]

Thanks Mandle... thinking about adding a "in memory of" at the end of the credits... too corny?

Anyway, just finished coding a brand new feature... looking forward to see how my testers will break it (yes, I'm looking at you, jwalt ).

[CaptainD]

Too corny?  No.   

I've nearly got my voice back properly after this cold virus messed it up so should have Starbuck's voicing finished soon.  (Just in case it's me that's been holding everything up!)

Will one of the achievements be upsetting the waiter? 

[Cassiebsg]

Don't worry, not you that it's holding it back, it's me... or better said, my work that drains all my energy... and then my son drains what's left once I get home...

Well, he will be a bit upset yes... and yes, one achievement has to do with the waiter... Been reading the script, I suppose?

[Danvzare]

I agree with CaptainD, that isn't too corny.
Go for it!

Thx (from a lurker and voice) for posting the quotation, Mandle. It's awesome when performers are able to live their dreams and childhood fantasies.

Heya, CaptainD/Starbuck!   

Cassiebsg: if you'd like another beta-tester, I'm open. And not corny at all IMO; a dedication would be great. 

[Cassiebsg]

Thanks Xanthippe, I'll add you to the next Beta. 

For those helping out with the game, please send me your "credits" name. If I don't get it, I'll just use your forum nickname. 

For those following this thread... I've been busy getting the 3 space cut-scenes done... I would have never had guessed that making a star-field was such a complicated thing... guess I always thought it was just a bunch of dots in a black canvas...  You can follow this marathon in the critics lounge topic here: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=54610.msg (and feel free to criticize!)

Next beta will be first out after I've gotten all voice files in game, cut-scenes are finished and I've polished a bit on the story/dialogues.  So, if anyone else wants to test at that point, feel free to get your ticket here. 

[CaptainD]

Heya, CaptainD/Starbuck!   

Sorry, delayed reaction here - hi Cassiopeia / Xanthippe!  Nice to meet one of my in-game lovers! 

[Cassiebsg]

Hi all, small update to show you the Intro as playing in game...

There might be some slight change to it, but probably not much more.
