To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Thoroughly enjoying Farscape, bullwinkle. Just thought I'd let you know and say thanks again. How many seasons did they make? These must've been very expensive shows to produce, especially for a network like the sci-fi channel. Very surprised they made as many episodes as they did in just the first season. I've already watched 7 or 8 episodes and there's nearly 30 more left to go!

Hi, Shant. Good to see you back! I am glad that you are enjoying Farscape.

There were four seasons of Farscape, plus the Peacekeeper Wars mini-series.

Yes, I imagine it was expensive. If you visit Farscape.com you will find that it is hosted by the Jim Henson Company. It would not surprise me if they played a major role in funding Farscape.

Off topic: Did you continue with the Crossfire mod for Freelancer? I have been playing it for a month, and am in the third Sector now (Sirius, Altair, Inner Cloud). All I can say is, "wow". And that is a huge understatement! 🙂

Yeah I did continue with the mod for quite a while. I figure I got about half-way through the game. I eventually got to a battle where I was literally in a dog-fight with one enemy for almost half an hour so I quit and haven't picked it up since. He wouldn't come straight at me long enough to hit him with more than a few shots, he'd just break away and make another round while his shield charged back up. The problem wasn't with my loadout either, I had very powerful weapons and shields. I could've used the editor and equipped guns that would've shot down enemies with just a few shots I suppose, but I made a commitment after a certain point not to cheat anymore because it was taking the fun out of the game.

Also, I stuck with 1.7 instead of 1.8. The main reason I went with crossfire was because you spoke of another mission added to the end...mission 13 was it? Anyway, right before I was about to switch over to 1.8 I read a post where you said they took out that mission in place of somekind of puzzle, which didn't sound appealing.

I will pick it back up though, I'm hoping that encounter was just somekind of fluke.

Did you know that Farscape also has its very own game? A squad based shooter, made here in Scotland no less if my memory serves. Here is some screen shots http://uk.gamespot.com/farscape-the-game/images/196595

Farscape a great series, pity it was canned.

The game not that great but if you’re a fan of the series you might get some enjoyment out of it.

Pick up season 4 of Enterprise on DVD, didn’t see all of it when it shown on TV a few years back. Another series which got canned just when it was getting good.
