Massive Update Thread

I've decided to open up a new thread where I will list all of the new files akula65 has sent over to me.

I am now finished with uploading and sorting in all the files - and I'm exhausted.

The only things that are still left are documents. I have another fanfiction, some interviews and a lot of I-War/Defiance related modding tutorials left.

I will sort these into the documents section later and will post links to them here. Have fun! And another big-up to akula65 for keeping this available for newcomers

Thanks! My Desktop looks much better now. I used to have a slideshow of stretched 600x800 screenshots. :pinch:

I have now added all of the documents.

A new I-War / Defiance Modding section has been opened up with some articles:

• Free Exploration Mode
• Message Board Questions
• Vurt's Briefing Reference
• Vurt's Dialogue Reference
• Indie's Mission Scripting Tutorial
• Command line switches
• Scripts & Tricks by The Infinity

I've also opened up a new section "Other" under the Documents, where I put everything else that is somehow related to I-War:

Interviews

• Interview with Glyn Williams
• Particle Systems Interview
• Q&A with Particle Systems
• Interview with Chris Mann
• Michael Powell Interview

Reviews

• PC Gamer / June 2001
• Adrenaline Vault - EoC Preview

• Gamesdomain - EoC Review
• PC Format 124 - Review
• gameON - EoC Review

Misc

• PC Gamer Ad
• Space-Sim Interview Transcript
• FoamBrick's I-War FAQ
• I-War Combat Guide

That's it - we now have everything! Time to clean this up and make a news article on the front page. :lol:

Oh and btw, I also found Stephen Robertsons website , it's still up

I've managed to sneak even more reviews from Computer magazines into the website.

Some of the German ones are hilarious - CBS couldn't decide how the game was called. They called it "Independent Wars" and on a later article "I-Wars". But the graphics are pretty cool:



I also like the big 6-pager from CGW. That's what a frakkin' article should look like:



I guess I'm pretty much a Tomb Raider now. Need more I-War things!

Just a little note that doesn't really fit anywhere:

We've now reached over 20.000 downloads since the relaunch of the website, tendency growing. This is amazing!

I am really glad that I have an unlimited traffic plan with my provider.
