Help me help me help me! I'm in that control room in the middle of the landing bay, and thats as far as I can get! ARGH!
But besides that, I'm not really that impressed by the level. (Okay, I'm not impressed at all.) The architexture is all blocky, the textures are poorly applied, the scales off in places, theres obviuse bugs in some of the cogwork (The big elevator in the pylon splits in half!). But, that one glimps of the bridge had it looking real nice, and I'm thinking of combining the front part of it (The windows) with my bridge and seeing how it looks.
Cept my mother started deleting stuff and deleted ALL my JK stuff, plus she went romping around in the windows folder, and found that folder called 'system', and, my god, she sees nothing in it! OF COURSE SHE DOESN'T! DLL's are set to HIDDEN in options! So what does she do? She DELETES it! The whole stinken folder! She already deleted all my JK stuff, JED, Matmaster, Paintshop, right down to the games themselves, wiped! Have to go reinstall/DL EVERYTHING! Not to mention I had to REINSTALL WINDOWS just to start the thing up out of DOS! And I need to go download the 20 some megs of win 98 preview dlls that replaced the ones from win 95! She thinks she knows everything about this computer and I'm an idgit... Get this, she called this guy from the computer shop downtown, and when he shows up, he says 'What did you delete?' and she says just some empty folders! But by then, I'd already started the reinstall, and the computer guy charged her a hundred bucks just to tell her that she deleted the files that make the computer work! And, you know what? She almost deleted the ms dos files, but shed already deleted the dll that allowed you to delete from win explorer. Shes like 'What do we need dos for?' THE IDIOT! Windows runs IN DOS!
Okay, okay, I'm done ranting, I'm just so god damn pissed right now! I'd almost finished a full recreation of my house too!
