One of these days I should dust off Rhino and try to do the Nemesis. But by then, Vince will have the SSD and the rest of the project done :D<P>Any new pics?

I've had limited success with a program called Parallel Port Joystick. It was originally designed for a different purpose, but it does include drivers for a virtual joystick controlled with the mouse. I actually have a USB joystick, it's just developed a large deadzone that makes it hard to target anything.

Oh boy. It's been years since I've been back on this site. I'm glad to see it's still putting out great models for XWA. I just dusted off my CD-ROMs and popped 'em in to relive my Rebellion days.<P>Glad to see this place is still kicking. ^^

Talking about energy bills....<P> Image <P>Alright, to give you a short heads-up of current status:<P>I have teamed up with Dragon and we are now working on a new version of the SSD. <P>This one is a joint venture model that combines parts of an excellent SSD model by Enterprise-E with parts of the one I made. sort-of best of breed.

Electric bills? powering millions of lightpanels is insignificant compared to the power of the engi- i mean the force

*Raises hand* If you're combining your model with "Enterprise-E's," where does "Dragon" come in?<P>BTW looks fantastic. :)<p>[ 07 August 2007: Message edited by: Tony Knightcrawler ]

Dragon came up with the idea. He'd gotten in contact with Enterprise-E and has done the XWA conversion of his model. Then we've combined the model elements and he's done most of the OPTing. Right now I'm a mere texture on the model.
