Anyone else notice that or is it just me?
I think it's just you. He says "switch to targeting computer" there isn't an "uh" or anything to suggest he gets cut off

ok, i'm not too happy about being brought into this whole argument and i'm certainly not happy about you posting quotes from PRIVATE emails. You have also taken things i said out of context.
I don't like Macs, never have. Why? Because i refuse to pay such an overblown price for something just because it has the Apple logo. A Mac Pro with a 2.4ghz xeon processor, 6gb ram and a 1tb drive is like £3000. Seriously? I can build/buy a PC with better hardware, faster and more storage for half that price. For the price you pay for a decent PC you can't get a Mac that performs anywhere near that, so PC have surpassed Macs for that one reason. A lot of the software i use won't run on a mac and i wouldn't be able to do a fraction of the stuff i do on a PC on a Mac without having to pay a small fortune for the software.
Also when you mentioned the monitors i was only correcting you when you thought the ones at your school were 1440p, when their resolution was more likely to be 1440 x 900 if they are widescreen monitors and that would be their highest native resolution compared to my 1080p PC monitor. I was leaving Mac pro's out of our conversation because of their price range when i was talking about upgrading. I don't count a Mac pro as being a viable option for me to ever use.
I also don't like what Apple have become. I'm fed up of people telling me that i only don't like apple because i either can't afford it or that i am too stupid to know any better. It's become a snobbery thing. It really bugs me when a new product comes out and the Apple fans & reviewers just call them things like "the poor mans ipad" or "the poor mans iphone". Then the whole iphone issue when you would loose your signal was put down to the official explaination that"you are holding it wrong" really made me laugh. And people believed this. Mugs. A lot of people only buy apple products for their status value in todays society. Now notice i said " a lot" and not "all" so i'm not slagging off genuine Apple users.
Windows based PC's and Apples both have their pros and cons. It's not up to anyone to say "you have to have this one". It's a personal and also a professional choice
There won't be a purist HD version
Well they just had AOTC on ITV1HD today. What surprised me is that it's the theatrical version and not the usual altered version that is on the DVD and other HD transmission versions. ROTS is on next week. It will be interesting to see if this one has the missing wipe.
Ghostbusters, you make a good point. With the PT only being 720p so i can alter the portion of the frame that is seen, doing ROTJ:R in 720p would probably be a better option so that the whole saga is consistent. Plus this would give me a better option of using footage from the theatrical versions 9 unless a miracle happens and we get a theatrical version blu-ray or footage)so i can replace that god damn hayden monstrosity at the end. I'm going to be changing the title of the thread because, after a lot of thought, i think 2016 is being a bit optimistic.
I don't have anything left from ANH:R so Everything will have to be done from scratch. I'm hoping i can find the original death star mesh animations but i know i deleted all the project files and everything else
Ghostbusters said:
How are you using your computer right now then? I added more to my previous post about the CGI buildings.
i'm not. i've commandeered my wifes netbook. I grabbed the pic from my external USB drive that contains the backup of the finished ESB:R shots.
I did tweak some of the CG shots in ANH:R. the dewbacks had a green tint in the shadowed areas so i fixed this to match the real life shadows. A lot of the time the old CG does have a strange coloured tint to the shaded areas so fixing this does go some way to making then blend better.
Ghostbusters said:
Adywan, did you get the fan on the north bridge fixed yet? Did/do you have to replace the whole motherboard or just the fan?
No, the whole board needs replacing. It's just another one of those things that are sent to test me. lol But it's being sorted.
Thanks for everything guys. Hopefully we can get back to ESB:R now.
So let me start it off by posting a little thank you
As i have said before, i tried to place the background buildings in their correct position in respect to the previous SE shot but it really screwed with the flow of the composite. I've added a 3D zoom into this shot and i love the way it turned out. you need to see it in motion really.
No threats to your life there. Your reply to my first PM was far worse than anything i wrote to you and there is no place in those messages that i threatened your life. I prefer to use words and not fists or guns as anyone that knows me would testify. The legal system would never see what i wrote to you as a threat towards your life because there was nothing there, whereas yours was a definite threat to shoot me.
Even after i have reached out to you with an olive branch and offered to put all this to rest you continue. Now would you please kindly stay out of my thread. you have your own in the off topic section to continue this.
If someone demand their money back then i am obliged to return it. If you had waited just one or maybe two days you would have started to get my replies to all your emails, but you were impatient and this is the result.
Things can be forgiven and forgotten. If both parties agreed to sweep all this under the carpet then i'm sure everyone would respect that and let the matter rest.

I really thought I misread this, but what the hell is all that crap about gun threats? Care to fill me in, ady? (Only if you want to of course, perhaps by PM?)
I posted his PM to me in the "jedi tray" thread. But here is what he sent me
Kenobius Prime said:
Fuck you, Adrian. You DID NOT tell me ANY of that shit about going to your Dad's. You stopped talking to me long before that. You don't know me, you will NEVER know me, and you had definitely be glad that we aren't face to face. I live in Texas, motherfucker, where it is legal to carry a concealed weapon.
YOU fucked this up, asshole.

Adywan offered you an olive branch what is your answer tray ?
he posted his answer in the ESB:R thread
Kenobius Prime said:
Dude, that was sent in NOVEMBER. Just admit it, YOU flew off the handle first and caused this. But since you won't, *ignore*.
Ah, that's better.
Sorry to get you guys involved in this. I helped this guy out a lot when he got banned. He took too many jokes personally and we spoke about this and that most of the stuff people had said were meant in jest. I also tried to get him to see that it was his own fault that he got banned and that he should stop harassing certain members to try to get him reinstated over here because only the mods have the power to do that and that we are just members. It became a bit much when i was getting constant messages from him. I told him to leave it until after Christmas to contact me but he didn't. I didn't realise i had to stick to a strict time frame and that i should prioritise him over everything else i have going on in my life at the moment.
The olive branch is still there but i guess now he's ignoring me i have his answer.

Seriously? You think this is all my fault? What has me flying off the handle, as you put it, got anything to do with what you did to start this and the lies that you never knew about the situation i am going through with my dad? Yet you still can't admit that you lied to try and make out you were unaware of the situation to cover up for the fact that you demanded the donation back because i hadn't had chance to reply to you
Ignore me all you want because you'll have a lot of free time if i get the authorities involved. Don't forget i have your address and the proof you threatened me with a gun so i know where to send the police
Kenobius Prime said:
Please keep in mind that Adywan told me FIRST:
"You are so lucky that i'll never meet you face to face. Rot in hell"
My "screwing over" took place because it was obviously the only way I got a reply. I DID NOT KNOW HE WAS AWAY AND DEALING WITH FAMILY STUFF. When someone tells me that they will contact me right after Christmas, I assume they mean to do so.
Anyway, you kids have fun. I am outta here until I have something to say regarding my project.
Continue the JT/KP bashing at your leisure.
And you took that as a threat that you have to threaten me with a gun? And i sent that you that AFTER you screwed me over. It certainly wasn't a threat and no where near a threat upon your life.
Oh and Jedi Tray, you did know fully about the situation with my dad. Want proof? Well here is what you wrote when you originally sent the donation:
Hi Ady. I hope my donation helps things between us, and maybe it would help my reinstatement. I would like to see the "Exclusive Emperor Clip" that folks are talking about as well. I can't tell you how much it hurts not participating at OT.com. Well, cheers and I hope all is well on your end and things are okay with your Dad. Take care and I hope this money helps.
So there you go. I still have the email from paypal as proof if anyone thinks i just wrote this myself
But now the proof is there that you did indeed know about what i was dealing with you'll have to find a different excuse.
So do you accept that what you have done was out of order and the threat to my life was going way too far? I'm man enough to put this behind us and chalk it down to a misunderstanding, so are you?
Thanks guys. I was totally gobsmakced by what happened here and how it all blew up.

I'm sure you all are hating on me by now after adrian decided to pollute the forum with our personal conflict. If anyone can just stop and think a moment, you are getting his side. He never responded to my emails and I NEVER was told that he would be away dealing with his dad and not have Internet.
It was a simple misunderstanding that has ballooned into unforgiveable curse words. He attacked first, I did what I had to. The refund was the only way to get him to reply, and I was right. Now it's all turned to shit and there's no going back.
Epic Fail here tray. You have posted my first PM to you in the "let jedi tray back in" thread and you have proved i wasn't abusive towards you, but instead reminded you why i haven't replied. YOU are the one that came back with the abusive crap. I had started to reply to PMs and emails today because i had some free time and was able to return to my house. My reply to you would have come in the next couple of days as i got through the mass amount i have to get through. But no, you had to screw me over like this just to get a reply, which again proves that you are just an attention seeker. Now you threaten me with a gun. Bad move.
I helped you out a lot, and don't deny this, so you can understand why this has really pissed me off. I've got enough to deal with at the moment without someone like you being a jerk. YOU are the one that has taken it too far. If i wanted to be an ass i could have dragged out paypal giving your money back by filing a dispute myself, but no i agreed to the refund straight away so they released the funds to you.
Ok, This is now going to go through legal channels

YOU fucked this up, asshole.
well because i can't reply to your direct now you blocked me then i guess i'll have to bring it in here
Oh have you seriously fucked up now. That is a threat on my life. I guess you too much of a pussy that you have to resort to using weapons. Well thanks for this. because now i can go through legal channels because threatening someones life with a gun on the internet is ILLEGAL.
And i did tell you all that stuff. Stop making crap up. I didn't stop talking to you for no reason at all. You harassed me on almost every site i visit. I told you not to contact me until after Christmas and i told you why. Or did you delete all the replies i sent to you because you seem to love the delete button.
Oh and thanks for posting my PM's to you because you have proved what an asshole you are even more. My first message to you proves that i was being civil to you then i get the abusive one back from you.
Thanks guys.
I just got this PM from the asshole. Normally i wouldn't share a private message but this really shows what an asshole he is.

Fuck you, you worthless piece of fucking shit. I only wanted my money back because YOU obviously never wanted to be friends with me again. Just because you are "famous" in fan editing and Star Wars circles, does NOT give you the right to treat people the way you do, you fucking asshat motherfucker. YOU said you would contact me right after Christmas, YOU decided not to and called me fucking names in the process. All it would have taken was 10 seconds of your oh so precious time, douchebag.
YOU rot in fucking hell, you bastard fuck.
I have just got this Pm from him. Normally i wouldn't post something like this but people should know what a worthless piece of shit he really is

£50 overdrawn fee?! That seems quite excessive. And shouldn't Paypal have contacted you first?
yes, the £10 donation plus the £37 overdrawn fee. It was refunded and this took me overdrawn. If i hadn't refunded it would turn into a dispute and matters could get worse
Well the project has stalled yet again, thanks to a certain member of these boards being a dick. I posted this in the "let Jedi Tray back in" thread so i'll copy it into here so you all can see what has been going on:
adywan said:
Kenobius prime/ jedi tray, whatever your fucking name is i really wished they had banned your ass permanently, no matter what stupid alias you use .
You bombarded me with emails/pms on virtually every site i visit when you got banned like some psycho stalker. I told you to what you did wrong and to just keep a low profile as your constant harrassment towards some members, and multiple new accounts would just make matters worse for yourself. Then i also asked you not to contact me until after the christmas period because of all the things i had going on in my personal life, which you were fully aware of.But you still kept contacting me all through this time
Now, since christmas i have not been able to reply to most emails/ PM's ive been getting because i'm at my dads most of the time caring for him because he started his chemotherapy. He doesn't have an internet connection so i'm having to use a pay as you go internet dongle, so accessing my emails would use a lot of this limited bandwidth, so i leave those until i get home and just visit the boards instead. Plus, i haven't got the time at the moment to reply to most PM's so have to go through them when i can in order of when they were sent to me.
Well i've had a night off tonight because my brother has come up and taken over for the night and i decided to start going through all the emails and PM's and saw one from you which has really pissed me off. An email from paypal because you have demanded the donation you made towards ESB:R back. Well thanks for screwing me over you asshole. The bank account used for the ESB:R paypal fund is empty, but paypal have withdrawn the money from my empty bank account which has now cause me to incur a £50 overdrawn fee (thats approx $80 to you). All this for a £10 donation. So i guess you only donated to get the attention you craved along with the emperor clip and when you weren't getting the replies you wanted and now you have been let back in here i was no longer of any use to you so you decide to screw me over. Now i have to try and fine the money from somewhere to pay this off, which is the last thing i really wanted to have to worry about at this point in time.
You are so lucky that you live nowhere near me because if i saw you face to face right now i wouldn't be responsible for my actions. You are scum and an attention seeking little whore.
Screw you and your crappy little vinyl project. I hope you rot in hell. You are the lowest of the low
