B5 Server Mod

Are you guys the ones who do the B5 Server Mod ?
If so could someone please tell me what the mods are (In English) ?

I have tried it and found some wierd changes, but havent noticed anything particularly B5ish.

sooo... what do you here do to justify your own thread? not to be rude or anything but I'm having trouble grasping this.

Appearantly you didn't read the "Important Announcement" topic, or you did but haven't been around long enough to understand.
so here's a brief rundown of what happened IMO
they started out making a TC (Total Conversion) for Starlancer and for some reason or another (i don't know why, I wasn't an active poster here at the time) they were granted their own forum to release info on the project
however the plot part of the TC relied heavily on the possible release of a mission editor. but as time passes, it becomes more and more evident that a Starlancer mission editor will not be released... EVER.
so they moved the TC from Starlancer to Freelancer... subsequently having the forum moved as well.
So i guess the question that needs to be asked is how they got the original forum in the first place?
How about a history lesson from the powers that be?

well, mostly because we were the first TC for Starlancer, because i asked Bargib (or did he ask me if we needed one?), and because we're working now on a TC for freelancer. I don't really understand your "why is this forum here", I found that to be a bit rude, like if a vegetarian went into a butcher's shop and asked "why do you exist, i don't need anything from you, so go away". I just came home from 2 days of exhausting work, i didn't sleep much and i'm ill, so you might understand that this is not really what i need now. If i misunderstood you, then sorry, but as i said, i'm a bit exhausted..

A quick history of the B5 TC for StarLancer... And later the B5 TC for FreeLancer:

I posted on the forums (with the nick virus back then), if anyone was intrested in making a B5 Mod for StarLancer. RubberEagle then kindly informed me that he was already making one, so I went "Great!" and we've been "making" it ever since.
The storyline is almost finished (right RE? ^^), and almost all the necessary ships are done too. Though... A few re-makes are being made, because computers have been getting faster too you know
Progress has been quite slow on the SL-front, due to the simple fact that we dont have a mission editor. So, after years of waiting and the release of FreeLancer finally made us change our platform.

So, thats a quick and dirty review of where we have been and where we are now. I think RE has a few things to add, but you'll atleast get the picture

well, that's basically it...
