Just saying hello
Posted: Sun Jun 20, 2004 5:57 pm
Hi. I just want to say hi (now done 
). I'm a new member of this board and just recently (through a search on the TTLG.COM board found this site). I actually thought that all fanwork on Tres (heeeyy! I've already picked up the right abreviation ) had ended... wow was i wrong.
I've always been fascinated by Trespasser. Of course the legacy is in part based on the gigant failure that Trespasser truly was, but herein lies something interesting. I often find that it is in the projects that ended up imitating the Ikaros myth that you find a lot more interesting things to study. Maybe not even study but just finds something interesting. For me it applies in litterature, movies and of course games. So even though I never really did play the game that much when it was released (my computer was too slow), the game did find a place in my memory and I have been installing it from time to time and playing it feel both frustrated and impressed at the same time.
Anyway to find this site, and get the game up and running again is quite nice. Of course the game is still partly unplayable, but in other areas really really fascinating and unlike anything we have seen since (more or less). And then to find out about the levels you have made is really something, actually it's amazing what you guys have done to the game. Both in terms of looks, gameplay and the sheer professionalism in for example the tc level, is really eyeopening. A lot of other bigger communities can't compete on this level.
I've mentioned the Ikaros myth even if I in context with this place maybe should've brought forward Phoenix Rising instead. And thinking back to the Postmortem comment on how crazy it was to try out hacking a game that never had an editor... well this is indeed a pretty neat job of reanimating the dead that you have done here.
Anyway this is probably just a bunch of selfcentered crap
but I just wanted to express my respect for your dedication and work. I'm looking forward to tc_isle and just to play around with the game again.
(I apologise for my crappy spelling... )
