A reminder that the March Madness multiplayer competition is currently underway in #EHCOC on IRC and will continue throughout the day.
TAC hits 3000 FCHG!
10:59 - AD Marcin Szydlowski [pbmike@go2.pl]
Yes! Finally, after over 3 years, I have 3000 FCHG points. It was one of my career goals. Also, I have new battles and missions for you :)
BoP-TC #15,16
XvT-F 135,136
XWA-FREE #92-94
More will follow soon, and my next goal is 1000 CR :)
Older TIE'95 patches updated, Clk/F released for XvT
18:25 - AD Ender mBind [mindb_ender@hotmail.com]
I've updated the older patches for TIE95 to add amongst others custom OPTs (The craft now actually look like they supposed to) and custom names in-flight. This has been done already to the A-9 Vigilance, Cloakshaped Fighter, TIE Dragon, TIE Phantom Mk.2 and TIE Scimitar, the TIE-IW patches will be next.
Besides these, I've also released the new Cloakshaped Fighter patch for XvT. :)
All these patches are available from the Patch Archive at the Science Office Site - give them a try:)
SquadFirst Project Released!
21:27 - FA Ari [ari@tiecorps.org]
The Internet Office is pleased to announce the release of the SquadFirst Squadron Homepage Template, coded by our very own Alex Foley. After a little bit of delay, we've finally worked out all the bugs (we think) and you can now download the package, complete with full instructions at http://squadfirst.minos.net. If you find any bugs, please report them to FA Ari.
On a related note, the Internet Office is deeply sorry to see IOA Alex Foley resign this week due to lack of time available for IO matters. He served the IO loyally, and went from a simple HTML coder to a skilled PHP coder in months within the IO. He will be missed by the entire staff.
10 New Patches for TIE Fighter ('95) Released
20:08 - AD Ender mBind [mindb_ender@hotmail.com]
I've made new patches for TIE95 to level it with the new releases for XvT. This means you can now have the TIE Vanguard, TIE Drone, TIE Assault, TIE Protector, K-Wing, I-7 Howlrunner, Spectre Advanced Missileboat, TIE Experimental Mk.1 and TIE Sentinel\Shadow in TIE'95 as well... And I added the TIE Phantom (Mk.1) already to TIE'95.
All these patches are available from the Patch Archive at the Science Office Site - give them a try:)
