I have looked through it but it is soo verbose and it is not brokent down into more digestable chunks. If you could break it apart with more formating and more paragraph usage that would be the win!

So change it AF. At the time of writing, I was only aware that it worked with AAI. You are 100% welcome to put instructions in as to how to use NTAI or any other AI's, and I will copy them over to the manual on the site. Seeing as I know very little about NTAI, and was only tipped off to the fact that AAI works by another player, I was in no position to write up an explanation about whether other AI's work, and simply mentioned that they may work.

Smoth: I understand what you mean, but to be honest, after spending 20+ odd hours editing the old SWTA one and typing up new sections, and then formatting into Wiki (the buildpics for the unit guide were a nightmare), I don't really feel like going near it again. Especially seeing as my understanding of wiki formatting is very basic.

I considered breaking it up into seperate pages, so that people aren't confronted with the mass of text that they are, which I agree can be quite discouraging.

I'll have another look at it when we get closer to another release, and I have to edit it to put in new information. Until then, anyone is welcome to try and break it up (without removing information) into more seperate elements, on the single page or on seperate pages, if they think they can make it less overwhelming. I'd like it to be done, but I have far too many things to do to go near that monster again.

KAI and NTai work with starwars spring with no steps necessary.

Before anyone asks, "Mobile Deflector," a shield unit, our own design for gameplay purposes.

Good job, I like the high detail and that metal texture! :)

OMG, that's the worst texture I've ever seen! Also, santa clause is real.

I think the unit is really cool, but whats going to prevent people from building a million of them and having a inpenetrable wall of sheilds/deflectors?

Vassago · Post by **Vassago** » 08 Jul 2006, 17:48

High unit cost? That's my guess...

Thanks for the feeeback, all.

Zoombie · Post by **Zoombie** » 08 Jul 2006, 17:53

We'll see. But the texture is very nice. I like how it looks three dimensional.

lol i'm like, "WTH is a AT-MD?" and then i read your post...

nice texture... does the dish-thing turn? i think it may look better if it did, but whatever... Conic shields, anyone?

How much are they paying you Vassago?
Another impressive model!

Vassago · Post by **Vassago** » 08 Jul 2006, 20:48

Give props to Warlord for the excellant model :)

I just textured it.

AFAIK, the dish doesn't rotate. But the pivots are certainly setup to rotate properly :)
