Not after 93 pages of plain hard work. He's probably adding a bunch of unimportant stuff that isn't worth posting about.

I remember back when he posted on the LA forums, he stopped for about a moth because he was scripting stuff and had nothing new to report, as scripting takes forever, and is really boring.

Stuff I have been doing:

Scripting: basically stuff that can only be lived not seen in a screenshot. (maybe if I could get some freeware that could record longer than 30 sec video and another program to convert the video into a usable filetype that doesn't self-destruct in 15 days...)

Also I have been tweaking the sides (the fighters) a lot.

guys, i would have gone mad from all of these "I can't wait for this map to come out, any updates?, When will this map come out?" I say let the man do his work and give him all the time he needs to make this THE map to play on battlefront 2. I'm also glad that he's taking his time in making this map, because we all know in the past when people rushed to pump out a beta, and people complained that the map was crappy. give the guy some space, and we'll cross our fingers that this map will be all that it can be!!!!

haha id guess that the best way that you anyone could help xwingguy if they felt so inclined would be to get him a subsciption to some decent video capturing software.

It would probably slow down the maps progress, Xwingguy would be to busy making videos of the map!

That statement's a bit off. I'd say of the 93 pages XWingGuy's posts would only fill about 5 of them. The rest are you guys drooling and n00bs asking "When with this be out!?" :lol:

Teancum, not to ... make you look bad, but if i remeber correctly from the first page you were the first person that said " I believe I just wet myself." Yes, I just checked and its true. So you are included in the "you guys drooling" :D

Ah, 'touche! :lol:

If ya'll are wondering what XW is up to as far as the map is concerned, be sure to check out his topics in the SWBF2 Modding forum. He's always posting there his findings/questions and I'm pretty sure they're all related to this map.

touche, i should've tought of that. And yes, what you said is true, XWing almost always posts his finding in the SWBF2 Modding section. Such as self-pilotable ships.

Um I dont think ur using that correctly :lol: (apple commercial)

haha and those pilotable frigates?
all my idea :lol:
jk i was just the first to suggest it to XW, moving_target did all the real work :D btw XW any plans to add those in game? I still really hope they get in but i wont be surprised if its a no, I recently tried my hand at vehicle making and its just one problem after the other. Mad props if you get those to work man thats tough stuff.

flyable frigates is most likely out. It's not a practical job to do in the first place, has many drawbacks, and really, won't be used that much anyway.

But the frigates will be animated anyway to be on constant move.

Thats good, im a little saddened by the fact that they're not going in but I dont blame ya at all. As I recently found out making anyhitng let alone the frigates pilotable is a tough challenge.

Can you destroy the moving frigates or are they only hollow anminations...
