Well, after a ton of hassle and setbacks, V8 is finally released. It’s primarily an update of the alternate (Padme Dies) version, but I included the few relevant tweaks for the main version as well.

This is it. Last time I will update LOE, and this is the final word on this project. I simply can’t do it again. Or, won’t, at least, but firmly.

People can still give feedback and stuff, but… this is the end. It’s done now. Thanks again to everyone who helped make this what it has become. But after I update COD to reflect TMWNN’s visual tweaks, I’m going to swear off working on these three prequel fan edit projects for life. I love them and all, but they need to be done.

Anyway, hope you enjoy!

For the main version, I further trimmed the elevator action, added sade1212’s FX shot of Palpatine unleashing the power of his face, reinstated two lines of dialogue during Anakin’s knighting, and took a slightly different approach with Anakin and Padme’s Mustafar conversation.

For the alternate version, I adjusted the sequence of scenes in the second act as described a few posts ago. I believe this holds faithful to what LOE has been from the start while fitting better with the theatrical ending in which Padme still dies.
