A random statistic of the day. BlackWater Operations has about 60 missions in total in which about 40 are currently in progress or completed. Thats pretty good progress I'd say.

The demo is going over some final checks now (Kellan's doing exams also) and voice stuff is about to start on that part of the campaign. Then it'll be the final push.

I'm going to make a stab at saying that BlackWater Operations may be finished or nearly so by the end of summer. I certainly hope that its no later.

Ice...do you have any freaking idea how LONG the voice acting for the full thing will take IF you're going to implement voices there?

My vote: February 2003...or you all send me money and I get a studio and some real pro voice actors

Blah... it doesn't take long if voiceactors are fast, efficient and bored to their own lives. (that just sounds like me? )

But sweet mother of god IceFire? 60 missions... I thought that this campaign was something like 20-40 missions but 60, whew... that some heavy duty job.

...I am not talking about the voice actors, but about the post production of the voice!!! It really depends on the voice actors and their recording skills...they really have to avoid any plops, fart noises, etc....if they really make their work good I can use scripts instead of checking any single wav-file for plops, etc.

By the way, Ice, Kellan...when you have the scripts ready it would be really nice to set the filenames, so the actors directly use these. It saves not "much" time, but sum it up for me!

We can probably set up some sort of numbering system. That should suffice. Next time I see Kellan online.
