So here is what i plan for the next week (still one week on vacation, so i think its feasible) A: You get vacation??? (LOL, last year I had to put off vacation to support Bush's OIF effort. THIS year I am taking some) 1) Get FR compile with current CS version. A: Is there anything I can do? Especially since I know little C and less C++. 2) convert current geometry to new XML syntax A: Interesting, I understand a bit more about XML than C (LOL) but have some conversion tools 3) Get some info on the network issue in CS, maybe i end up incorporating one of the mentioned projects into CS. This would involve me looking at all the candidates, but hopefully someone else did that already. A: I AM a GEEK! I do understand networking - Whew hoo!, problem is, if I understand what your saying, this will again involve code - did I say I hate code, something about it makes me go to sleep 4) Look at CEL and play with it - goal is to drop FR implementations of standard stuff A: I have ideas! - OK, when you did not answer me, I figured you were upset at my suggestions, SO, I took LINUX off my system since I had problems getting the FR code to work with the LATEST version of CS.......well, now you tell me it didn't work. - In any case, I think it might be best for me to stick with Windows for now, can always load LINUX back onto my machine, but then it takes a day to do the updates. Besides, I have some cool tools to support the effort and can export my text to text2html anytime. - Almost have WinCVS set-up, minor dificulties there, had it once before. Already working on updating the story line. Recommended path ahead: 1. Your 1 through 4 (cool, what you said) 2. Crawl, Walk, Run -a. Story Board (Update) -b. Story Update (Rewrite-Update) -c. Specifications (Update to build by) 3. Get the basic system operational with at least 4 base ship models (I am not talking 3D either) -a. I am talking performance, maneuver, and cockpit views. I think that when we move to a larger scale that there might be as many as 20 ship models. -b. Plug 3D Models in after physics is correct. (I have some recommendations here - forcing team play to gain success, rouge fighters seldom survive) 4. Galaxy Creation, Planet creation, and carrier ship development - Docking, Maintenance, Launch, Transport (entrance-exit-plaetary/clan transfer) See, I have been thinking. If you want, since one of my jobs is scheduling at work, I can handle the paperwork, scheduling, storyboards and such - whew. Will be on IRC when I figure out a time schedule tonight. Key here, I want this thing to work! It is time to have some fun droping PIDS!! Or whatever we want to call them.
