I did suggest this some aeons ago...

It might be better to show the twins being born and then do a series of time jumps showing the transition between the Republic era ships and Imperial era ships, (perhaps a few battles with the Alliance) the Clonetroopers and the Stormtroopers, have Padme die on Alderaan and see little Leia at her funeral on Alderaan (possibly aged 3 or 4) and finish with the construction of the Death Star with Peter playing Tarkin not Wayne in a Halloween mask.

The transition idea could be very doable you could see a ROTS style Star Destroyer wipe into a ANH/ESB style Destroyer etc, etc and finish with Vader and Palpatine looking at the construction of the Death Star surrounded by Imperial ships showing that it was built closer to the timeframe of ANH than ROTS. (a bit like the end sequence of the Enterprise finale where we saw Enterprises D, NCC1701 and NXwhatever only in reverse http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXotJu1CapU&feature=related).

It would also serve as a bookend for the celebration montage at the end of ROTJ, instead of seeing the defeat of the Empire playing out over space we'd see the growth of the Empire over time.

Forgive the roughness of this mockup as per:

Time Wipe

 

 maybe in the middle pic just have the ISD bridge replacing the RSD Venator bridge

Episode IV Scene where Owen is buying the droids from the Jawas:

Owen:  Do you speak bocce?

C3PO:  Of course I do, I am fluent....

Owen:  Wait, I know who you are, you are that annoying droid who talks like an English Butler that Shmi owned about 15 years ago.

R2D2:  BEEP***BLEEP***

Owen:  And your his little friend, R2.....D....2!

(Owen turns to the camera)

Owen:  Come on George, did you actually think the audience was going to believe I wouldn't have recognized these 2 droids!!!!

 

 corrected!

Lags with quatro CPUs

I have a dual-core, so this isn't an issue for me.

Windows are in tabs.

That's one of the things I thought was a radical improvement - tabs all the way!

Windows overlap other windows and tool boxes.

I'll give you that one.  It's slightly irritating, but not a deal-breaker by any means.

Repositioned almost all the adjustment and other tools (or whatever call them)

This happens every few versions, and it's not like it's that hard to get used to the new locations.

OpenGL features (apart the rotated canvas ) suck.

This I just plain don't understand - what's OpenGL, and what features are these that (apparently) suck?

 

 heres my two cents: fill bucket

Got it 005 ;)

 

Now i had an idea of a more dramatic and dynamic destruction of executor.

Forgive the mess, was done quick

Id like to have executor scratching the surface (ala Star trek nemesis) before explode to pieces, leaving a cool scar to DS's surface.

 that sort of reminds me of the invisibile hand crash/another happy landing scene

It's been tough to find things that bother me about ESB, knowing the majority of them are being fixed. I've made many suggestions in this thread (some rejected, some supported), and after all this time, my idea well is running more and more dry!

But... here is one thing I've been meaning to mention for a while, and just kept forgetting to do for some reason... toward the end of the asteroid chase, just before Han finds the asteroid cave, he says "there, that looks pretty good." While he says this line, he points out the cockpit with his finger, implying he VISUALLY spotted it with nothing but the eyes he was born with...

... yet in the next shot, while Leia is asking "what looks pretty good?", the view outside of the cockpit is very clearly NOT showing a cave yet! As they continue flying, only then does the cave appear. How could Han have known there was a cave there? For all he knew, it could have just been another valley!

A fix could be just replacing the footage outside the front of the cockpit to show what Han is talking about, maybe making the cave appear a lot sooner, or making the valley bigger so that they are already flying into it when Leia says the line. Otherwise, it is just illogical to see how Han spotted a cave that he couldn't possibly have seen yet, as he kept the Falcon flying low the entire time.

"What looks pretty good?" Indeed.

 

 um he was saying it about the "ASTEROID" it self

That's actually not as bad as I thought.

We just need to find someone who's willing to do it (the hard part) and collect generous donations (the other hard part).  Dust/scratches are the only thing I'm worried about.  It would be best to have a second print, then combine them to get the best out of both.  This would of course more than double the costs...but would also be better in the longrun.

I think once we do EpIV, people will be more willing to make donations for V & VI.

Just set up a televangelist business and you will have plenty of money LOL

 

 

 and god said let ther be STAR WARS!!!!!!!!!!
