DS9FX Xtended 1.2
« on: February 13, 2012, 02:20:25 AM »
As the man in charge of public relations for the latest build of DS9FX, I have the pleasure of announcing the 1.1 update to the public.  For the past several months, a follow up to the highly-successful DS9FX Xtended has been in development at BCS:TNG.  Although developers commitments to their real lives has meant that progress on this update has been slow, discussions continue regularly about new features and new builds of Xtended 1.1 have been produced on a semi-regular basis.  The focus of this particular update is a new campaign - the first to take place entirely in the Alpha Quadrant - as well as bug fixes and the addition of new systems.  In an effort to promote this new update to DS9FX Xtended, and in the interest of getting some feedback from the general public, we're pleased to announce that a public beta of the 1.1 update will be released here shortly.

Now, I'd love to post a few screenshots, but I seem to be having difficulties.  Jimmy?  Sov?  Help?

*Edit:  Link posted for now to a few screenshots.  I'll add more as soon as I get an OK from Sov.

Pics have to be hosted on photobucket or such nowadays.

My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me."

Is this going to be a standalone build or an addon to Xtended 1.0?

Try www.imgur.com, I find it much better than photobucket.

Addon.

Time to revive this thread. I'm getting ready to release that open beta.

You guys want me to upload the current beta somewhere or share my program which I made for beta testers -- you place it in root stbc folder and run it. It syncs your install with the latest version of DS9FX.

I'd appreciate some input from the community on this.

Putting it in the root folder and syncing sounds like a very nice delivery system!
I would go with that, but that's just my opinion.

Also, I would love to beta test, but I know you have your regulars. And the Fact that I don't have much time on my hands, pretty much spells doom for that concept.

If you're a member of BCS-TNG forums PM me your username over there and we'll sort that out. None of us has much spare time but we do what we do anyway.

Its actually the same user name. I use newhalo123 for just about everything.
Although, i can't remember my password, now that i think of it...

Anyway, thanks for the reply.

EDIT: I got my password. Do I still need to send you a pm, since it's the same username?

Holy crud, the-----------long to -------- all the files! I mean its been going for an hour, and i'm only at 115 out of 246.
Censored for those who do not have the power. lol :P jk

Idk what your policy is on talking about hidden and secret stuff, but i thought i would censor it just in case. (although, with enough brain power, you could probably figure it out.)
In any case, if it IS against the  :readme: , then will the mods please get rid of that little part?

EDIT: the MTN DEW is freakin killing my brain, man...

It takes me 10ish minutes to get the whole package.

Since I'm preparing for an open beta (still need to set a date for that and goals for that open beta) I don't think the amount of files qualifies as a secret. But you'll get a couple of new systems and a new campaign (still missing the final mission).
