Well g-force's scripts really improved the image(with what you mentioned and other) and it is made anamorphic(16:9) and they will have all the available audio mixes for the first time ever, no other set can say that, I am sure other people will chime in and tell you how nice these are, and 1 might comment about how it is not, but the ignore feature here is great for that.

If you like the Theatrical versions of each film this is the set to get, I think the only way this set can be beat is by only GL himself releases them.

Hope this helped somewhat LOL.

So basically, your GOUT v3 set is going to knock everyone else's out of the water? Okay then I'm definitely sitting it out until you finish and release this one :) I downloaded ROTJ GOUT v1 to ease the waiting pain until then :)

See... ? I was right to ask ! ;)

This is my opinion only, this is just how I feel about them, you guys might think differently I am not sure until you guys see them.

I just downloaded the latest Belbucus ANH '93 remix, and it seems my earlier file of it was corrupt or something because this one is perfectly fine at the spot I pointed out before. Thanks for uploading, Mallwalker!

dark_jedi, have you heard any differences between the audio files at those times Mallwalker pointed out?

We want you to be aware that we have no plans—now or in the future—to restore the earlier versions.

Btw, makes me think reediting a lot of the ESB music at the identical from the 1980 stereo mix, I noticed a bunch (a little bunch, but a bunch still) of pops or clicks that were precisely on those editing points on the film mix. That was very interesting.

I have not even worked on this set in a while, still waiting on to many things to even finish so it is on hold for now.

I made a comment in the 'Star Wars coming to Blu-Ray' thread that ties in with these clean-ups, dark_jedi. I'll put that comment below. What do you think? :)

"It would be nice if the new deleted stuff could be incorporated as extended OOT versions of the movies, separate from the theatrical versions, maybe using dark_jedi's GOUT clean-ups or something like that. I know it would really depend on the condition of the clips."

Dunno if it's feasible or how much new footage will be available to know if it's even worth bothering, but I thought it could be neat.

What footage do you speak of? that would be cool to add in deleted footage if that is what it is, I might even mess with some of that.

He's probably referring to the Green Lightsaber scene, and all the other deleted edits, if any more, that will finally become available thanks to the impending BR release.

Damn the Blu-ray release is still well over a year away, I thought there were scenes available now somewhere.

Hi. Is there anywhere I can search for these? I tried a.b.starwars but didn't see anything.

Also, I tried to send a PM but it wouldn't send; is there something wrong with the site? Sorry, I'm a newb :)

Look again.  :-)  You might have to hunt back a bit, but the last time I looked the releases were still there.  So far there is G-Force's ANH created with the new script, and dark_jedi's old versions created with an older form of the script.

Thanks, Chewtobacca!

I tried to say thanks via PM, but I still can't figure out why it won't let me send them :(

G-Force released ANH with the new script.  DJ's new versions are still in the making.

Author

So what's the difference between G-Force's new script version and DJ's new script version? If they even use the same script. If not, the question stands even stronger.

Dark_Jedi is using G-Force's new script.

The difference is that DJ's V3 DVD will include all of the following:

- Burned-in subtitles (for Greedo in ANH and Jabba in ROTJ), created by msycamore, that replicate the theatrical subtitles as closely as possible
- New 5.1 upmixes created by Hairy_Hen
- All official pre-SE audio mixes, minus the original 70mm mixes (this will include theatrical mono for ANH, theatrical stereo for all three films, and the 1985 and 1993 remixes for all three films).  This will mark the first time the 1980 ESB, 1983 ROTJ, and 1985 mixes have been synchronized to the GOUT video.

 

More information on Hairy_Hen's 5.1 upmixes:
     - ANH's 5.1 mix is an as-faithful-as-possible recreation of the 1977 theatrical 70mm six-track mix (using the 1993 and 1977 stereo mixes); LFE (subwoofer) channel is a hybrid of the 1997 SE 5.1 and 2004 DVD 5.1 LFE channels, edited to match the theatrical mix
     - ESB's 5.1 mix has one(?) badly-edited music cue fixed (making it different from the theatrical, '85, and '93 mixes) and the missing snowspeeder crash sound effect restored (missing in the 1993 mix); LFE channel is a hybrid of the 1997 and 2004 LFE channels, like ANH; it is not a 70mm recreation, but an edited upmix of the 1993 mix
     - ROTJ's 5.1 mix has one unused music cue restored (making it different from the theatrical, '85, and '93 mixes); LFE is custom-made from the 1993 mix (at least, I think so; this track was made before the other two, and is available on Dark_Jedi's earlier releases); like ESB, it is not a 70mm recreation, but an edited upmix of the 1993 mix

dark_jedi, I checked the sample you posted and noticed that your encode had less cropping than mine, I find it a little weird, wasn't this clip done with g-force's latest script? Just curious.

from my encode:

Yes of course it was done with g-force's script(the ONLY thing modified was the subs), I do not want to be a smart ass here but people can make there own encodes if they want, the scripts have been posted(except for Jedi), if you do not like what you see or something seems off to you, all I can say to you guys is, make your own.

Things can be a little different from PC to PC, also OS's could make a difference.

and as far as updates on this project, it is still the same as the last few, so this is now on hold for who knows how long, I am going to move all files over to an external and get them off my main drives since I have not touched them in weeks.

Take it easy d_j, I'm not attacking you, I was just curious why my encode of it came out differently, it could as well be my encode that's wrong. It could matter as I am doing the subs with g-force's cropping in mind. Oh well, nevermind.

Sorry man, just really getting frustrated, PM sent.

I posted this in the '97 SE "take 2" thread but some of this is relevant here as well.

 

"I already said I was sorry to msycamore and I told him why this is getting very frustrating, but I will give you the jist of it, I WANT to finish these and be done, it is a character flaw in me big time and I freely admit it, I have no patience, some things I am waiting on, to me, I can't see what the hold up is, but this mainly pertains to the GOUT v3 set, msycamore and I are already looking into this and if there is anything that can be done, it might get done, but if not, it stays the way it is.

Now I want to go ahead and say this, I appreciate all the help from people contributing to these sets, but I have a full time job, I have kids, I have a house to take care of, and all the other stuff to being an adult and I am buzzing right along(also did a side project with ABC) LOL I guess I just wish everyone else was to is all, but I now have everything on my external in regards to the GOUT v3 set, I hate to do that because then when the files I need do appear at some point, hopefully I will remember what is what.

@vbangle, I did not forget about you dude."

Satanika is currently on vacation, and will be helping me out with the remaining 5.1 when he gets back.  So those should be ready in a about a week or so.  As far as I know that's the only thing d_j is still waiting on, right?  So these projects are very close to being ready for release now.

No it is not the only thing.

I am not sure what you give to satanika, but if you send him the 6 mono wav files I can encode that to 5.1, if that is what you send him, I am not sure what you guys do.

I do hope g-force is OK though, I don't think he has even posted in a pretty long time.
