You got some balls to come here to advertise IFH

Heh. Just kidding
Anyway, too bad IFH doesn't come with a mission editor.



Just noticed this new smiley! I like it! MUAHAHAA!
(has it been here long?)

Was it my imagination, or did Colony Wars have a fairly interesting flight model that was a little half and half? You had to keep the button down to keep your forward movement, so if you let it off, and turned, you could sort of spin around B5ish, except that you lost your momentum really quickly. However, you could slam on the reverse thrust right after your spun, and continue hammering whatever you had been flying at, backwards.

I have my doubts about that. BTW, you can create complete missions just by modifying the mission file via wordpad

As for the release date: when it's done. I am just handling the voice acting and it is not as efficient as it was with TBP Release 1.

I just saw something interesting, warp in and warp out are completly diferent functions, and there is a call that specifys wether this uses a knossos warp out or a normal warp out in each of them, the only diference is an int

in shipFX.cpp
look in the shipfx_warpout_start function
then look for

code:


		warp_objnum = fireball_create(&shipp->warp_effect_pos, FIREBALL_WARP_EFFECT, OBJ_INDEX(objp), effect_radius, 1, NULL, effect_time, shipp->ship_info_index);

code:


		warp_objnum = fireball_create(&shipp->warp_effect_pos, FIREBALL_KNOSSOS_EFFECT, OBJ_INDEX(objp), effect_radius, 1, NULL, effect_time, shipp->ship_info_index);

I feel inclined to put my 2cents worth in...Considering everyone else has.

I just have one thing to say about Starfury cockpits...did anyone notice there were 2 FLIGHT STICKS!!! One to control pitch and yaw and another to control roll and vector thrust. Now just think of how you're gonna set your controls on your comp to handle it.

This is not to discourage a test of it nor a release of the concept but I think it just needs to be assessed for those of U who are accustomed to using flight sticks. And I think it's the last think keyboard users want to think about.

U already fly like that, you have the joystick to fly the ship normally, and the Num pad for roll's and pitch
