Moved to Staredit Network news. No point in remaking something thats already been made. I've known about it for a while, plus that it was going to be released around midnight. I was too tired to stay up because I had gone skiing that day.

Updating Download database...

EDIT: Done!

w00t! I can't wait till I get home! (more options hehe)

Definatly something im going to have to try out... of course when im home and not at work

Wow you made this a news idem real quick. I didn't stay up for it ither I put it on my site this morning. Besides if you did you would of just had to reupload it because the midnight release had a bug where it thought all the maps were protected (it has since been fixed of course).

Replace "work" with "school" for me.

I didn't make this news item. Notice that its your post thats just edited (you deserve credit ) to include SEN's link.

I know that, but I figured i can't actually make new threads in the news section so you made it a news item by moveing my post

Im kinda like yaa my first news item post on a site where i can't post news yeah!!

Oh yeah a personal note about the terrain editor that you might not notice. You can use + and - buttons by your numberpad to increase and decrease the brush size.

lol that along with the recent tiles from the master pallet were my ideas (how about i'll take credit to that) And look my name is now in the special thanks in BOLD lol didn't even ask for that lol.

Well i got to go back to class over and out

I'm aware of that. But if I allowed everyone to news post, then we could have some real junk being put here

If I see anything worthy, I'll move it in.

I find it funny that any time something is mentioned about what I can't do you must explain your reasoning (like it isn't obvious). Like the max file size. So here is the big question? why doesn't everyone have admin access like you do yoshi? lol

Oh well thought that was kinda funny.

Multiple other things. Yoshi was the only one able to handle the RPG before, now we can all do it. Can help with other small things as well. Manage tutorials. Correct any minor things.

It's not a matter of security, I believe.

Don't even get me started!

That could make things ... interesting...

LOL must be a staff thing. You weren't suppost to answer that question shadow and I was actually refering to like everyone like anyone who visets the site. Maybe I'll just forget about it

Edit: oh wow im a "Reg" now yippy

Now all we need is to relate the topic to "sex".

*Yoshi da Sniper opens starforge zip file
*Yoshi da Sniper starts installing
*Yoshi da Sniper can't wait
*Yoshi da Sniper is about to fire it up....

I'm sure FireKame will be happy to oblige...


(its funny because I have no idea. I'll probably get flamed for this. And deserve it )

I know I'm kinda late due to my comp problems(check the garbage forum threads), but...
SF 2?!
SWE E ET!!!
Once I'm allowed to use SE on my computer which isn't done having all the drivers and stuff setup, I'm going to have to get it!

Hmm.. I'm having trouble with my SF2... everytime I try to open any map, it pops up a message saying "This map has been protected and will not be opened"... what the hell is that??? it even says that on a blizzard made map such as (8)Big Game Hunters...!!!!!! Any help would be most appreciated for this problem.

didnt someone mention in an earlier post that the first version released had a bug that made sf think that all maps r protevted but thet heimdal fixed it and realeased a new version shortly after?

yes you need to redownload it Interfere and reinstall. You proboly got it sunday night or monday morning.

If you downloaded from Staredit Network, you got the working version. The messed up version never went up.

I dont know if im doing something wrong or what but when im using the terrain editor when i have it on ISOM is will make it but make everything surrounding the iso square.. its hard to explain.. dont know if you ran into it or not.

When I tried to Setup, it told me it needed mvbs60.dll or something like that.
I downloaded it, and it still won't work.
So I decided to open the .zip? file with WinZip, and extracted the contents.
Then when I try to Setup, it still doesn't work.
If I try to run it, it tells me that it couldn't find some important data files, and so it tells me to find them for it;
.tbl, .lst, etc.

Try getting visual basic 6 runtimes.

It still does it.
