What's New/Being Planned
[Main]

What's Been Added:
 

     November 12, 2011

This update, which was planned to be much much larger got cut short as I have been recalled back into seismic survey. I have begun the process of modernizing the Main page - but the process has not yet been completed. The next update, which will be small will not occur until late December.

Updated Entries:

  1. Espo Walker 91
  2. K-222
  3. Lone Scout-A
  4. Orbitblade-2000
  5. Planetary Fighter
  6. Razor Fighter

Finally some actual updates! The next update will include entry additions, and hopefully redesigns of the menu pages - which I am still struggling with. The new format the data entries is now in effect (although still in HTML4 instead of HTML5). The same sharp look has been maintained and upgraded, but the background image has been removed to assist in the effect.

I am also in the process of refocusing GEDB. The next update will eliminate the Dark Forces Pharoah section as it has not been used in some time. Furthermore, the Old Republic Section will not be receiving updates.

Updated Entries:

  1. A-24 Sleuth
  2. Etti Light Transport
  3. Gauntlet Starfighter
  4. Modified Invincible-class Dreadnaught
  5. R-41 Starchaser
  6. RX4 Patrol Ship
  7. Survivor Lifeboat
  8. TIS Zeta 19
  9. VGK-3 Shooting Star Prototype
  10. Zebra Starfighter

I have not abandoned Galactic Empire Data Bank - a combination of employment, minor relocation of my computers, and gaming have been responsible for current delays.

The data format style has been modernized and will be implemented as new entries and existing entries are updated and uploaded. As of yet, the main page and various section pages have not been modernized - I am still trying to figure out how to do so. I have managed to purchase a number of the Wizards of the Coast source books, and the upcoming updates will reflect this. For the time being, the Nebulon-B Frigate updates have been put on hold.

Unfortunately, my old Dell XPS 8200 suffered from damage to its sound drivers. I believe I have repaired them - to permit the needed research for X-Wing, X-Wing vs TIE Fighter and X-Wing Alliance. TIE Fighter research will continue via my only computer that can run it - my Dell XPS R450 (runs Windows 98). Research for Mission 4 from Rogue Squadron has been completed - so expect that in the coming update.

GEDB still continues. I am aware that Geocities ceased operations on Oct 26, 2009 and I will look for a different server to re-upload the missing sound bytes. Completing post-graduate schooling and now returning to work as a Field Cartographer has once again intervened.

Current Situation in Order of Priority:
LucasArts TIE Fighter = Finishing up Battle 9 and Battle 13 research. Also in the process of taking screenshots of all briefings and debriefings, about which 40% is complete. I still need to get the Jamming Beam and Mag Pulse Torpedo screen shots (from the Launch Screen).

This leads to updates to the TIE Advanced After Hoth and TIE Defender entries.

LucasArts Rogue Squadron = Research Mission 4 - the New Essential Guides indicated that this battle did indeed occur.

Finish work on all the Nebulon-B Frigate entries.

LucasArts X-Wing = Need to take screenshots of all briefings and debriefings, tech room and cut scenes.

LucasArts X-Wing vs TIE Fighter = Need to take screenshots of all briefings and debriefings, tech room and cut scenes.

LucasArts Force Commander = Need to do battle research.

LucasArts X-Wing Alliance = Need to do battles research and screenshots.

I have noticed on different computers the site does not look as good as it should. A large site redesign is in the works. The next update will most likely occur in a few months time.
