    First Strike Dev Diary #14 - JayBiggS

    There is a new dev diary posted today over at the First Strike mod website featuring JayBiggS. Here's what he had to say:
    They call me JayBiggS and I'm a texture artist for First Strike. I hail from the land of the beaver (Canada) and I've been modding for about 4-5 years now.

    Before joining First Strike I was co-founder of the Galactic Conquest mod for Battlefield 1942 and stayed on until development was complete. Then the GC team decided to come up with a brand new concept, and Shattered Faith was born. After a few months of work on SF, the team sort of fell apart and FSDev|Preacher brought First Strike to my attention. The rest is history!

    My duties here consist of texturing models and post production quality control. I'd say the main things I've been working on have been the weapons. I enjoy the challenge of trying to recreate the props used in the films as close as I can get them. I want you to play our mod and watch the Star Wars films, and recognize details you maybe wouldn't have before playing First Strike. We have scoured every possible source, the films, cartoons, games, books, and toys to come up with what we hope will be the most visually accurate depiction of the saga in game form. No small task, to be sure, but thus far I'd say we are approaching that goal.

        "They call me JayBiggS..."

        Actually we call him worse things than that :P

        Joking. But I'm surprised we haven't put out some screenshots with these latest dev diaries. If you visit our forums on www.firststrikemod.com/fsforums (or even better our channel of #first-strike on irc.quakenet.org ) you'll probably find more information and visuals :)

        "This year"? :P Easily. You may notice we're stepping up our public awareness this last month or so.

                  Kind of the wrong post, we could offer your a Packard Mortar Gun, DH-17 Blaster, E-11 Carbine or a Proton Torpedo Launcher to name but 4 of the many many weapons that will release with FirstStrike

                      That weapon was part of a BF2142 sales promotion. If you bought that game from a certain store at the time of release, your copy of the game came with that rifle. I dont think you can get it anywhere now.

                      Thanks for the kind words guys!
