BSG is probably the greatest Sc-Fi show of all time. It has one so many prizes its now funny, And has a cult fan following, Of which I am one. One day I was playing Cortex Command I just thought..Hey, Would it not be great to be fighting Cylons instead of crappy skellies? Then I remembered that I would not stand a snow balls chance in hell of doing it all on my own, And Priate Inc. has not got a sub forum yet I decided too let you lot help out. The way it works is that you volunteer, And either make a mod on your own and PM it to me, Our you join the modding group and we work togheter, Helping each other. As in, A great spriter but who is crap at coding, Gives the sprites to the Coder, Who codes and then passes them to whoever. That way everyone can get a chance to make somthing they were not able to make on their own.

Modding Team:
Team Boss Man: Orindell
Coders:
tosty

Scene Makers:


Spriters:
Dragster

To-Do list:
(A word on main charectors. There are too many to do them all in CC, So I am going to take the best five. You Suggest one, Or vote for one that has already been suggested. One vote/Suggestion per person. I will take a look over the thread for votes/suggestions in a while)
Raptor (Dropship)
Heavy Raider (Dropship)
Cylon Centurion
Colonial Marine
More to come

O BOY!!

Another full conversion for CC that will slowly lose steam and die.



Try this in private, because I'm tired of getting excited of full conversions and seeing them die, much like WH40K

Always happens anyways. Just stop attempting community TCs.

Never! Anyway, This not really a TC. Its a large pack. And you both have modding talent, Why not help rather than complain?

And it's people like you who never let these projects off the ground because you are dead set that history HAS to repeat itself.

You dont have to have seen EVERY epidsode. I have missed a few, Trust me, But its very easy to get the basic stuff. Just check out the Wiki. Also, There is a spoiler ban now in action inside this thread. Remember people, Some people dont want that [SPOILER], Or that [SPOILER], So keep it under your hat OK? We will start work when we reach three-five people.

Yeah, totally the fault of the guy who's trying to kill it early before it dies. Not the fault of the people who quit modding. Nosir, I must bow to your incredible intellect. I am no match.

SHUT UP. You are not helping this live, Are you? Take a sick child for example. Say there is a chance it will live, And a chance it will die. Should you shoot it through the head before it gets a chance? You say yes. You say dont give any chance, Because it MIGHT die later.

That's an extremely exaggerated comparison lacking one crucial detail in any case: the probabilities of each one occurring. Say there's a 80% chance the child will die (pretty accurate in terms of the amount of TCs for Cortex Command), and that while alive the child will be in pain. In that situation, would you not feel justified to euthanize (Okay, actually I wouldn't in a real life situation but for the purposes of this metaphor it works)?

Point is, while this MAY get off the ground, a community total conversion for an self-admittedly cult program is likely destined for failure and frustration for those involved. :???:

No, It those not work. And you messed up one detail: The people that help make the TCs LIKE TO MOD. They are not in pain. They make them because they enjoy it, And for the metaphor in question, Its crazy to say that you would kill the child. And un-true.
