I think he meant Free Space 2. Not Star Fox 2.

Where did you evenn fet your sig? I know it's been modified from something, but what? A comic?

[Fox's_Feather]

Yes it's the "Farewell, beloved Falco" comic settled four years after the Lylat Wars.

[Psygonis]

Ba advised, dear non-european (or australian) readers that Lylat Wars is the name under which Starfox 64 had been released in these countries. ;)

[Flammenwerfer fox]

Oh, thanks.

@ Psygonis. My no.1 rule on the internet is: If I have heard of/know it, then so does every one else.

I knew that 64 was called Lylat Wars in Europe and Australia, therefore, so did EVERY ONE else.

[General Battuta]

You can bet it'll look, at least in general outline, a lot like the FS2 interface. At least at the moment it's not possible to change the general outline of the interface, though you can alter the individual graphics.

[Slycan]

hmmm.
So no gold-ring collecting >.>?
or (B) bombs?

[Flammenwerfer fox]

I don't think so.

[MarekMcCloud]

Instead of Gold rings, I wish Nintendo could give it more realistic approach. like perhaps shields.
even on foot missions, instead of health boxes, why not recharging shields? it would give it a more realistic approach (kinda like halo)
I mean, they are wearing some type of advanced battle armor anyway. XD
Also, the Great Fox in Subspace (SSBB) used a shield when battling the great halberd. and then gets pwned. :D

Damn, the Great Fox gets owned all the time! once in sector Z, then by the Aparoids, then by the halberd! I call dibs on a new youtube video :D

people say I tend to de-rail threads lol

you seem to do that slightly often, yes ._.

[Psygonis]

There's a fair chance that the HUD will be as "minimalistic" (in comparaison of the HUD from FS2) as traditionnal Starfox HUDs.

However, the fact that we're working the the FSO Engine gives us a far wider range of possibilities that we intend to use, implicitely or explicitely.
In term of HUD display, we're currently drafting up ways to include relevant data on the screen in the "Way of Starfox".

You shall recognize the usual Starfox HUD, but it will be, as for the rest of the game SOL-styled! ;)

[Fox's_Feather]

Hum, at least we know that there will be B-Bombs. Maybe not the B-Bomb counter on the HUD, but they will be here, I saw the video where it's used!

Also, I was like so pissed when the Halberd fucked up the GreatFox. I mean wtf, it's a F-word wooden ship firing marshmallow! Plus the GreatFox should be twice it's size normally.
BUT OH WELL, it's the Kirby creator that made SSBB, so guess why it all happened...

And the Great Fox doesn't always get owned.
1) GreatFox > Asteroïds.
2) the GreatFox takes down 3 Harlocks and 2 Zerams in Area 6.
3) It takes down the Hemorrhoid shield when nothing else can do it.

[Fox_McCloud3232]

HAHA i lol'd. but yeah >.> i can't wait to see what the HUD looks like. i hope it's better than the one from my texture hack of SF64

Why not just use an emulator and a capture program like fraps?

and i think having different huds for the arwings would be a great idea!:yes:

[Fox_McCloud3232]

makes sense. i never did know where the hell to buy one of those OTL

[Flammenwerfer fox]

You guys may as well be speaking Japanese.

[DZComposer]

No, you won't have to "fly through 3 Gold Rings to Reach Dinosaur Planet."

[Slycan]

I'm not talking about DinoCraplanet :lol:

Talking about making my health meter 2x Bigger (n64)

[MarekMcCloud]

I got mine from Best Buy. You can also buy them from any other electronics retailer.
Also, its a Pinnacle capture card. I think they're the best.

[Slycan]

Can't let you mess up my health bar extension,
SOL.

HOORAY FOR REVIVING DEAD THREADS... seriously that's not cool even if it gets your EXP up -.-

EXP? I haven't even been on this forum long enough to even know about EXP, and now that I do know about it I don't care.

I Made this thread and I felt like replying in it like it or not (not that I'm satisfied with the answers I got either way); besides, wasn't like I dragged something that was from page 2 or 3.

thanks for bumping it yourself though, proved your own point very well :yes:

Anyway.
So no gold rings = no health extending?
or will we have another thing to upgrade our damage meter?

Awwww.... and i don't think there will be. Assault and command didn't have it but i did like that feature. i've never played FS2 so i don't know if there's any kind of similar way of increasing your health that's already in the engine.

Nope there isn't.
But, again, there weren't rail misions on FS2 as well, so...

[The E]

Yes, there is. All it takes is a bit of not-very-creative FREDing to do it. It has been done before, in principle.

[Falco314]

ummm... but there is it on some mod or on the original FS2? o.O

[The E]

There is no feature exactly like that in any campaign I am aware of. However, the tools and features needed are a part of the FRED toolset; there are sexps to modify your hull value, there are sexps to check for distance to another object. Everything a mission designer would need to pull it off.

If you are talking about the whole rail-shooter experience, THAT is new to SoL. But modifying your health value on the fly while in a mission is definitely possible.

[MarekMcCloud]

If you are using a health bar, can you make it a rechargeable sheild? I say screw the rings. You probebly like, "Itl geat rid uff all de classicleeness! NoOoO!" but I say screw them because its very unbalanced to go shooting each other and scavenging for some ring on the map. Besides, rechargeable shields make more sense too, I mean Nintendo finally caught up. -Yea we know (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFzyHDrgDc0).
