Winter Tw Wolf

Too funny for words. daeudi may be on to something. Might be nice to log in and see the SDF-01, valks and Destroids

Flak Frigates...how I love thee, let me count the ways :9

That's my fault for making an obscure "Undergrads" reference... XD Thanks for the bangin' card Akilae. Now to wait for the mod.....

Oh, you!

A little burg called Oshawa in Ontario, Canada. ...wow. I never expected to get an offer like this. Aki, my messenger tags are as follows: AIM: Winter Tw Wolf MSN: jean_luc_cougar@hotmail.com ICQ: 176201741 YiM: wintertwwolf HIt me up or PM me if ya want. Heck. If anyone wants to gab about HW period....

My appreciation, gratitude and thanks to the people who helped me in this little predicament. After FINALY getting a response from Sierra, I've been told in a one line email that my video card isn't supported and can't run the game. Just as well, can't afford a new card now anyway. ; Oh hey, thanks for the misleading box information Sierra/Relic. I'll never buy another one of their products again. ...now to try and get my money back for this game ;_;

My desktop is set to 32-bit and the latest drivers for my card DID produce some results. No 'error.txt' has been found or created for that matter. o.O Here's a screenshot of what happens when I boot the game, and the newest Hw2.log file :s Thu Aug 09 13:03:49 2007 Loaded Archive: 'Homeworld2.big' Loaded Archive: 'english.big' Uing ..profiles\ for profiles folder Changing from a 32 bit colour depth in winNT (5.1 build 2600), Service Pack 1 Using NVIDIA Corporation's 1.5.7 GeForce4 MX Integrated GPU/PCI/SSE/3DNOW! renderer (Suspected driver is nvoglnt.dll 6.14.10.9371) Loaded Archive: 'englishSpeech.big' Loaded Archive: 'Music.big' SOUND -- created destination [ fdaudio ], handle [ 4 ] with [ 48 ] channels created SOUND -- created destination [ fda streamer ], handle [ 5 ] with [ 8 ] channels created Build name: The Dust Wars - AutoBuild3569 - Ordered by smmatte Built by : mrbuild Data path : C:\PROGRA~1\Sierra\HOMEWO~1\data Could not initialize all fragment programs.

There's an 'error.txt' file? *Feelin' stupid*

Unknown at this time. I'm posting away from my home comp at the moment. Does the Hw2.log I posted hold any hints as to the problem...? I'm currently downloading the newest drivers for my card from NVIDIA. "ForceWare Release 90" version 93.71 WHQL.

Owie. Sys specs: 3200+(2.200GHz) AMD Athalon XP CPU 512 MB PC2700 DDR SDRAM 160 GB 7200RPM HD NVIDIA GeForce-4 MX Graphics(64mb) WinXP Pro(Sp1 Fresh install) The game when I click on it, goes to a black screen like its loading then RIGHT back to my desktop.

I failed to find anything relating to my issue. I get the impression that this issue is either very uncommon, or unique to my computer. Odd... I've fired off a help ticket to Sierra, but have been given no response as yet... ...maybe I should stick to old DOS games >.> EDIT: Nice ninja edit, Aki XD

I do have Admin access. o.O

Argh. Despite installing HW2, the ver of DirectX and DivX on the cd *AND* the latest patch, I cannot for the life of me get the game to boot. I wouldn't ask here, but the Sierra forums are dead and I can't find an answer. I do however get a .log in the directory with the .exe and the contents are as follows: Thu Aug 09 09:08:59 2007 Loaded Archive: 'Homeworld2.big' Loaded Archive: 'english.big' Uing ..profiles\ for profiles folder Changing from a 32 bit colour depth in winNT (5.1 build 2600), Service Pack 1 If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, or have missed, please by all means let me know. Please? I'm asking nice EDIT: This is a pic of the PRE-Installation message I got/get. I hope its relevant. EDIT 2: I've got Admin level access, so I know its not that.

It was a joke ...my god I can't wait to install HW2 on my new P4 system in a weeks time :9

I hope this doesn't get canned after all this work....otherwise I just pissed $15 on a copy of Homeworld 2 that'll never get used otherwise

WOW!!! 8 pics to rotate as desktop wallpaper. Needless to say that model is simply gorgeous :9

Funny you mention numbers for the SDF-1....I made a thread asking about the feasability of a vessel of such size and math and the game engine CAN do it...however there was mention that the length and size of the hull could cause some glitches or even a crash. No matter. I'm going to try and find a fix for Milkshape so I can still use it ( ) and try to find my half finished VF-1A and find a way to put it in Orbiter. Start small, eh? Build Macross Island? While a really killer idea, I think it would be pretty poly heavy, and cause issues with older machines. I was thinking of when the add-on is started, the SDF-1 is floating in the ocean in Storm Attacker mode in ep. 15 I think. Might be a little easier on machines that don't have the latest 3-D hardware.

Hey JG. I'm a fan of Orbiter too...even though most of my flights end with a large smoking crater in the middle of the runway...and was toying with the idea of modeling the SDF-1 or an Oberth myself. I've got Anim8or and Milkshape on my system. I've not used anim8or before, and its been forever since I last used Milkshape and I'm not too good with either...but I'm going to try and model a VF-1 for Orbiter before I attempt anything the size of the SDF-1 With that said, I'd like to help you with this Orbiter mod in whatever way I can
