Although we have done quite well in converting our current materials into TC we still have a long way to go. So as to the finished article we would be dumb to give a date. Personally I would like it to be in 2009 but that's as far as I go on that.
Milestones - those were the idea of Moonraven who left without word and who has been defrocked as a member since. I didn't like them at the time as did a few of the others and now that he is gone - so are they as far as I am concerned. We had met most of the targets minus the ones he should have done i.e. scripts and mission stuff.
Some of us have discussed the possibility of releasing a demo, if that were to go ahead I imagine it would be in the first half of 2009. IF...
I expect a vid of some components of the new mod to be released sometime before the end of jan 2009, by which time all of our members will have a copy of the work done to date.
Hope this helps...

Well, milestones or not, it makes no real difference. A demo is a good idea, it gets your mod out there and known, shows people what you are capable of and your aim. I am happy so long as the team just release things as they are deemed ready and fit to be released.

Well we're still going, even though an important cluster of the members are occupied by RL atm.
I have just written batch of scripts for planet trade and equiping/arming ships bought at docks or on the map at start game(both player and NPC). So now we can finally add stations and Jobs ships etc back into the mod. We are still short of stations more than anything in the modelling area, many ships require some editing. We will need to look at missions etc in the not too distant future. As for a release date I'm sorry I wish I could give you one - 2009 is still a realistic target imo but I cannot say any more than that. Hope this helps?

So is the milestone release system still planned, or is it going to be one big release as a complete TC?

I hated the Milestone idea from the start as did many of the others, it is meaningless when you have members doing things when the time allows in RL. As far as I'm concerned the idea of Milestones left with Moonraven and good riddance to both frankly.
From my point of view there will not be a piecemeal release of the mod unless it folds. If that happens I will certainly release my stuff for use as xsp etc. Any releases should be complete entities in their own right.
We will largely test in-house, but may also select a number of long-standing members of the community to also test before a release if your up for it?
As to what a release would look like that has yet to be decided. I'd certainly like something out this year be it 'In the beginning' a 'raider' demo or a full mod covering all eras.
TC makes modding the simplest thing tough, but we have made significant progress...we have a load of ships,great map, a growing economy and a number of stations that we need to add to, we also now have a growing set of scripts dealing with fundamental issues in the game like the economy of planets, equiping/arming ships af all race and types and jump-gate activation. That vid I keep mentioning should now happen this month . I hope that a number of members will also become active again shortly, that should get us moving even quicker. Barring missadventure I/we indent to finish this mod.

Milestones, demos, call it what you will, at the end of the day it is always best to have a clear goal for a release and the sooner that release is then the better for all concerned. Fans stay interested, more interest is generated and not just fans but developers alike can enjoy the product of the hard work.
If you want to make a demo then great! I would recommend focusing on a few important races that live in close proximity. Finnish up their ships/stations, various scripts and locking out the sectors of those that are yet to be completed. Focusing like that would show your intended vision yet restrict enough of the game to keep player interest in a full release. Each new demo could add a few new sectors races and features.
At the end of the day I do not mind how you guys do it, so long as you are keeping at it. Now I am off to watch Babylon 5 and patiently await more news.

Great news Savotw.
We really do appreciate all your work, and believe me, I know what it's like to have free time projects. The fact you guys keep on with it is a testament to B5 fans everywhere.
At the same time, I'm a B5 fan who spent over an hour flying around an untextured, low poly babylon 5 model in the 1st release of Babylon 5 freeware (Now dead) and Many many hours defending 3 tankers from raiders in another babylon 5 freeware game. Just seeing the ships is exillarating, so my anticipation levels are incredibly high for this game, and it makes waiting hard. :(
Ultimatly, I'll be here if you release tomorrow, or next year, or the year after. So keep up the great work, and I'll just sit here waitint to see the fruits of your labor.

Welcome salahuddin
Since the last vid a batch of ships have been added and now some stations are going in...the internal map for TC has been worked on..some scripts tested...it's been a bit of a grind in the last few weeks but we're still making headway. I still think a demo release before the end of the year is a reasonable goal.
