swphreak Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 To figure out the different time zones: Time Zone Convertor That is all.
popcorn2008 Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Live Developer chat is tonight, 4-5:30 PM Pacific Time. It will be held here. So start thinking of some questions and have fun! Make sure to read their rules before doing anything. Post any questions here.
Athanasios Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 .............thanks a lot for the quick reply pop..................... So, 4.00pm is 11pm GMT right? As said, that Time Zone Converter doesn't help a lot, with 10 different "pacific time" zones. I think we could post the meeting hours in Zulu time, like in army
popcorn2008 Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 You can always convert the old fashioned way:
yodasoda2187 Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Well, pacific time is GMT - 8, so 4:00 + 8 should be 12:00 am (midnight) GMT.
Athanasios Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 which is 2 in the morning for me....too late, i got exam running. Hope someone will ask about that camera....
EliteJal Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 how many hours do we have for the chat ? I am from Greece and I don't know the time there.
yodasoda2187 Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 The chat should start in about 2 hours and is scheduled to last an hour and a half.
yodasoda2187 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Just wanted to remind everyone that the chat is starting now: http://forums.lucasarts.com/thread.jspa?threadID=100125&tstart=0
popcorn2008 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Thanks Yodasoda! Yes everyone the "chat" has begun. Though it really is a forum Question and Answer. Have fun with the questions! Edit: My question was selected! woot! Though they gave a bad answer lol This is not my question but I like the answer: There is space bombardment where you can call on fire from space. There's space bombardment!!!
Skylover SC Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 They answered mine to and mine... well, not exactly
popcorn2008 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Well the chats over but major highlights for me were: - There is orbital bombardment. - More explaination of space combat. - The Death Star Dilema So if your the empire and you build a death star and it is destroyed its game over But than again you dont have to build it. Intereasting...
MasterJack Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Thanks Yodasoda! Yes everyone the "chat" has begun. Though it really is a forum Question and Answer. Have fun with the questions! Edit: My question was selected! woot! Though they gave a bad answer lol This is not my question but I like the answer: There's space bombardment!!! They are talking about calling in bombing runs if you have bombers in space, not orbital bombardment. They poorly crafted their answer and it was a bit misleading.
popcorn2008 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Hopefully not... they seem to have a tendency to word answers in a difficult to understand fashion Maybe if torpid or delphi see this they can clear it up.
Darth_Torpid-PG Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Hopefully not... they seem to have a tendency to word answers in a difficult to understand fashion Maybe if torpid or delphi see this they can clear it up. There isn't any orbital bombardment in the way you mean (i.e. turbolasers from capital ships) - it's strictly bombing runs. You're right, the answer was poorly worded (I have chastised the one responsible accordingly )
popcorn2008 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Well thanks for the clarification . Im good with the bombing strikes as it is, they are pretty devestating! I would hate to have turbo lasers crashing down on my base as well
Jan Gaarni Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Base Delta Zero. Make molten slag of every ground map I can't capture. Too bad it's not in. Anyway, I'll have to read the answers later today. Have to go to work.
Admiral Sith Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I actually managed to get in time without knowing my time frame, but i couldnt think of any questions. And some interesting info on their personal lifes there, plus the questions that they put in but did not answer reflect on what they are trying to ignore.
Teradyn Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 In your professional opinion, developers, is there any structure in the game that would allow modders to implement orbital bombardment? For example, could we add a button via LUA, can we check for what units are in orbit... any way we can use the turbolaser towers shots in a vertical arrangement above the viewing plane to form the basis for the shots, etc, etc?
