It's been awhile!
« on: November 03, 2011, 01:51:38 am »
It's been a very long time since I visited the boards.  So I wanted to stop in and say hello!

It seems this place has gotten a lot quieter since I was last here.  It seems that Vista and Windows 7 have put a major dampener on the activity on the Dynaverse and on the boards too.

I haven't played the game in a very long time, and I would like to dust things off.  It doesn't look like there have any campaigns going on for a long time now.   Perhaps if everyone still has the contact information of other people in the past maybe we could attempt to get something together?

As far as the Vista/7 issue, I don't know if people have tried to use a Virtual Machine to run SFC: OP, but I was able to get SFC: OP to run on both Vmware and VirtualBox.  I've actually got them running pretty well.  I went ahead and posted a tutorial in the guides section in case the information would be of help.

Now all I have to do is find my ship that's been in mothballs for years, and clean out the cobwebs...

Great to see the crew still checking back from time to time.

If Tracey and JB show up, I'll have a heart attack.

I still play on the forge occasionally, keeping my ship dust free.  :)

Glad to see so many people still doing well!

Does anyone think we could drag enough people out of hiding to run a small server?

Depends on whether enough people can get that virtual machine going. I'm still running XP pro so I'm good to go. 8)

Still on XP here. Been thinking about this game a lot for the last year or so. Hoping to land plasma on an unsuspecting cargo vessel again some time in this life.
