I am looking for 2 individuals:
Senator, who was known on BCU as... Senator.
Ben Phoenix, who was known on BCU as U.S.S. Phoenix.
You will have my gratitude and a percentage of proceeds from the sales. Don't ask.
-
Senator is still around, sometimes...
Phoenix is long gone... and i miss the arguments he and Laurelin had!
Laurelin was a major icon in BC, she did alot for the scene!!
-
So is Trim. :D
-
Yes. Yes you are. :D
Hello, Trim. It's been a long time. ;)

-

Damn kids with their hipping and hopping.
-
Thank you, Jimmy. Thank you. That's a hell of a start.
see? im useful sometimes :D
we were all there then - Laurelin, MLeo, myself - even Spamula was there! lol :)
trust me - Laurelin (and she loved Romulans) and Phoenix (Ben - he loved Klingons) the two of them were good friends - but thats where their old "debates" are :)
notice the dates lol talk about oldschool!
ive tried contacting them both there already, but alas, no response :(
-
I hit Phoenix on 3 counts. I'm hoping that he responds to or at least sees one of them.
-
LOL just like me to show up fashionably late...
Better late than never Neb ;)
-
UGH. I get an e-mail alert about a reply in this thread after all these months, and is it Ben Phoenix?! NO.

I miss BCU :( learned modding from that place.
Was also this one guy who posted like 4 kickass mods WIP right before the forum died.
It was an ablative armor that when activated, would decloack the new mesh OVER your current mesh and then switch the HP....so awsome :3

OOOOOOOOOOOOOH !!!
I had that one for a brief moment ! it was one of the most brilliant mods I've ever seen for BC back then ! till these days I can't find it anywhere tho :(
I remeber i've downloaded it along with chronoton torpedo, secondary targeting and few other 3rd party mods :D
I guess it's pretty fair to give you cookie for a truly kick ass mod mate !
(jb76 edit - fixed quote tags...)
-
Oh, I remember that secondary targeting thing. I'm pretty sure it came with a "blind firing" mechanic as well!
I never got the secondary targeting system to work though. It just did nothing lol.
-

Was referring to myself on that one lol
-

yeah that was part of a megamod made by sleight42 but then finished and completed by Admiral Ames, MLeo, Defiant and JWattsJr...
called "Tech Framework"...
and, the secondary targeting does work indeed, you just have to know how to do it lol :P
which is, target one ship and fire, then hit Secondary Target, target the next ship and fire, then go back to fire upon the first target and then youll be firing at both... incidentally, you can do more than two targets by repeating those steps...
-
That mod had blind firing in it as well iirc.
-
and most of these mods are working in KM QB.

Who doesn't have BC installed atm?
*Holds up hand* :/
-
My current laptop would not stand a chance against Quake 3 Arena ... BC is just a distant dream ATM ...
-
I've been here since, 2004 I think, on BCU. I would have been 11-ish
I had Bridge Commander since launch but had no idea about the modding community. Then again I didn't mod much back then on any game.
I went to that Star Trek Universe forum Jimmy linked, I had a chuckle at this thread

Bounty hunters: If you give me a percentage, of your percentage, I might know where Senator is.
-
he is standing right in front of me...
-
Lol, all of you calling yourselves old...
I started lurking at KA.com in 1999, posting in 2000. When BC was announced, what would become BCU bubbled off KA.com. Anyone remember John? (Senator, you're not allowed to answer).
Crikey - this community has an amazing pedigree.
Senator, any time I see your name, I'm reminded of the fan-fic forum on KA.com, and that epic joke-turned-collaborative-saga, Spam Wars (http://www.klingonacademy.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=16575). That is one of the most amazing threads I've ever read.
Aaaah, Nostalgia!
