  1. PSA: Cloudfare may have leaked sensitive data, so it is probably a good idea to reset passwords

  2. Just got back from Vietnam! Had an eventful return flight, full of food poisoning and someone smoking :o

      Other than that, how was your trip?

    2. Rinku

      It was great! Thinking of posting my first blog...as a way share some pictures.

      I look forward to reading it.

  3. Question: What would people think of replacing the combat suit & all combat suit light models with the smuggler model?

      Interesting idea...

      It would have to have some variation for each suit, otherwise it would seem stall I think. Also, would it reskin the NPCs as well?

    3. Rinku

      Rinku

      Oh it most definitely would have variation, essentially you'd just be replacing the models and then doing reskins for each armor. I'll whip up some proof of concepts and post them in my wip. The smuggler npc would keep the same textures they currently have.

      Oh, yes. Thanks for explaining that to me. I look forward to following your WIP for this.

      that is not surprising. continuity?

    2. Rinku

      It's not surprising, but it is cool that Giacchino worked in that theme. I didn't recognize it when I saw the movie, or even when I first listened to the score.

      Opinion: I thought the music for that one part was great. Maybe an altered Imperial March (maybe slowed) with those vocals added would have been epic. Like when Vader started throwing stuff at Luke on Bespin.

  4. The countdown to Rogue One (in China) begins!!! Officially purchased tickets :D ….Also a neat fan-film:

      I won't be seeing until the 20th most likely. Hope it's good!

  5. Merry Christmas! Enjoy your Life Day like Uncle Itchy would :P

  6. It was rumored that Rouge One wouldn't make its way to the middle kingdom until mid-january....Glad to find out the date is actually January 6th

      The Rouge Jedi were a famous order of Force-wielding makeup artists.

      Curses! Subway status updating is not smart haha

  7. I'm sure many of you have seen this....but to be safe, please watch the Star Wars Holiday Special in all its glory: http://www.polygon.com/2015/8/13/9147327/star-wars-holiday-special

      I've tried and failed.

      Haha understandable, this is one of those things that is so bad you either can't stand it or love the awfulness

  8. Quick guide to choosing which type of meditation may be best for you: http://tinyurl.com/jafyat7

      Breathing meditations have worked the best for me. What about you Rinku, which of the four appeals to you the most?

    2. Rinku

      Rinku

      I generally go with a Body Scan meditation, but will occasionally switch to an Observing-Thought meditation.

  9. Finally have wifi in my new apartment, no more going to coffee houses

      @milestails I could've done it under normal circumstances, but coffee house wifi in China is unbearably slow/clogged with users (unless you're lucky and find a small place nobody frequents)

       

      @jc2 Thanks!

  10. Got my little brother started on his first ever playthrough of Kotor 1. He's not even halfway through Taris and already loves it :D

      If you want something classic, record his reaction to the twist and post it to YouTube.

      Ah I remember my first time playing K1....I hated it. Picked it up again 5 or so years later and the rest is history!

  11. Do not remember if anyone ever posted about this.....but HK-47 is a character piece in the Galaxy of Heroes mobile game by EA. So would this mean he is canon?

    1. Canderis

      Not particularly. But it hints at a comeback for kotor perhaps.

    2. Rinku

      Rinku

      I think the game may definietly be hinting at a comeback, or at the very least be paying homeage to kotor. There is also gear "made" by Czerka Corp - don't remember if Czerka was a thing before kotor.

  12. Finally done with this semester! Hoping to work on some Kotor related stuff :D

  13. Trying to max out my dropbox storage...if anyone doesn't have an account and is thinking of starting one please use this referral link! https://db.tt/G66Drs5i

  14. Civ VI was announced...Here's hoping it is nothing like B.E.

      New engine! ^^

      Yup!! I'm excited to hear more about it :D

      Interesting... though I'll probably stick with IV.

  15. Another fan edit status: If you want to watch a good edit of the PT, I suggest watching the Fall of the Jedi trilogy (by Q2). I feel it makes the PT enjoyable. A New Hope Revisited (by Adywan) is also worth checking out.

  16. Leo just won best actor....the apocalypse is upon us

      The Revenant was a hell of a film.

  17. If any of you are interested in watching a well done 3 in 1 fanedit of the PT, I suggest "The Blackened Mantle." It is quite good.

  18. I've recently become interested in watching different fanedits of the PT to see what others have done. Pretty cool stuff, have you guys watched any PT fanedits? If yes, which ones?

    1. VarsityPuppet

      VarsityPuppet

      The Phantom Edit was pretty good. Did a good job of editing cheesy stuff, though they did cut out quite a bit of the good content as well.

  19. Had to go to Hong Kong to see TFA, totally worth it!!!

  20. Pretty cool video on the size of star wars transports http://tinyurl.com/jd4e4wf

  21. Is it just me, or are a lot of Shem's files not downloading for people?

      Hmm, maybe it's something with the Chinese internet

      Yeah checked all of the recent ones they seem to download when logged in and logged out

      Fair Strides

      And I recently went through and updated half a dozen of them because I rushed and forgot some files... :(

  22. Landed and safe Shanghai!
