But you're right, a FPS would be good too. Perhaps someone will make one. I recall something about a Quake 3 map on the official site awhile back.



In that case I take it back, it sounds perfect.

As far as I the Quake 3 map, which was also to serve as a 3D layout of the ship for us fans, was canned with the show.

Jayne was the one who said it had no guns. If you read all that he said (I think it was in his second post) he mentioned that for the game he decided that a firefly has now weapons standard thus allowing you to shoot stuff.

Dunno 'bout the game, but add me to the list of admirers of the art. I especially like the semi-transparent Mal over Serenity.

Sweet stuff, amigo.

There ain't nothin' I can't overcome or come to know. So lay your heavy load down on me, strip everything I have away. I am not your prisoner, I am not afraid.

No, what I said was that I'd make the Firefly-class not come with any weapons, but give it some space where weapons or other upgrades can be installed.

Hi Guys!
You might not know me coz im not posting a lot, i check this board quite often though.

First of all i think its a great idea to make some sort of game,what ever it is, on ff.
Though i never played this nova game since im not a mac user but, it sounds quite fun.

A while ago i tried to start up somthing like this but it was lil bigger and i guess it was too big and too blurry for the people to be convinced, anyway. It would be cool to make a game but im not quite sure if a space sim would do the trick, an rpg would be better, i think, since the whole show is about people talking, fighting, interacting with each other, the space and the ship is just the "stage" for them to play so im not quite sure if its possible without inventing too much.

As to this quake 3 map, which actually was/is a ut2003 map: there has been a project, "game to geek" or "geek to game" something like this it was as far as i can remember, nobody seems to know what happend with it after the cancelation, maybe "the innner circle" like mr fillion could know more 'bout it?

Actually i would like to start something like a fan-community-project where everybody who is interested could participate and create something like an ut mod.

And finally to answer your first question, yes id like to take part in your project, since i've got some Photoshop experience i could make some GFX but i have no idea when it comes to 3d modelling.

Peace

I need to check my typing better I meant to say "no weapons" I probably typed "now eapons" and then added the w to weapons without checking to see where it went. Sorry for any confusion.

Good thing you caught me miss quoting you quickly, that’s a big difference.

I'm a Mister, just FYI.

If you'd like to help, just do something simple....say, make a planet or moon graphic in JPEG format, and email it to me. It doesn't have to be huge----here's a pic of a planet and station in the normal game. I'd prefer the scale to be a *little* closer to accurate, but planets should be no more than three times that size at largest. I'm going to try something to make the pic a link rather than having it show up....
[code][/code]

Anyway, if your work looks good, I'll send you information on other graphics I could use. Or if you prefer, I could give you some worlds to write up a description for.

My email is lms at andrew.cmu.edu (figure that out, spam bots!).
