I didn’t realize it was finished either. Could you direct me to download links for them?

I had/made some time this evening to tend to this project. I added the Death Star duel saber footage from Luka Frik, and the Coruscant shot. The latter needed an audio extension so I patched that. I borrowed DominicCobb’s idea to merge two sequences that were split of Rey landing on Exegol and making her way toward the Emperor. I removed Sith-eyes Threepio mentioning that the spot must be approached “from the Southern shore.” And I removed Rey’s mother calling her by name, which was easily done without issue. (I like the idea from TFA lore that Rey named herself, borrowing from the X-Wing helmet she had. If any future EU stuff depicts her name going back to birth, this won’t contradict it.)

I tracked the timing adjustments made to sync, so hopefully I can adjust the commentary, subtitles, and chapters without a bigger fuss.

Felt good to get this more in order. And although I don’t know when, there will come a Rey Nobody alternative version.

Nice! Did you have a chance to check out how DominicCobb ordered the scenes under the sand pit on Pasaana? I thought it flowed a bit better, but you might disagree. I noticed in his workprint that he slightly slowed down the last shot of Kylo Ren in the briefing scene, which allowed for a little more dead air after his line I thought made the transition to the next scene feel a bit less rushed.
