Please?

Ah go on.

Anywho, go to www.swordspines.com, and save that link on the front page... yeah, it's a big file, nearly 50 meg, but I PROMISE you it's worth it.

For those who haven't a clue what I'm going on about, or most of you, I'm currently animating the first story we all wrote together here on the forums. Go and download the trailer. Now!

Well at least start it. It's going to take a while, so get a move on now.

"Out of interest, has anyone tried using download accelerator?"

Yep, I downloaded it yesterday, as I've been doing a lot of downloading recently. I was mainly attracted by the resume downloads function, as I don't believe that any programme can increase your net speed - I was right with this one.

"I've found it to be the single most infuriating piece of software I've had the misfortune to use."

I haven't found it too infuriating, but then it's Christmas, so I'm a lot more laid back than usual!

"As well a 50% faster download time, and the ability to pause downloads, I get the following additional features:

Inability to load a web pag in less than five miniutes
Inability to play any sort of online game whatsoever
Painfully lagged out chatroom response times
5000% slower email send/recieve times."

I can load pages in 1 or 2 minutes with this thing, and it's getting annoying. I'm even going to bother trying to play any sort of online game with DAP running and my crappy 56k modem.

"Basically, I can't use the net while the damn thing is on.
I'm considering composing an honest expression of my opinion of said software, and sending it to their customer feedback department. Without swearing."

I can use the net, but it is soul-destoryingly slow. I'm not as angry as you are, but it is getting annoying. 2-3 mintues to post a message!? What's wrong with this world? Normally, it's 30 seconds at most.

Thanks. :0)

I really have no idea when it'll be finished... long time yet, certainly.

They'll be more trailers though, definitely.

WHEN IS THE MOVIE COMING OUT!!!!!111222333

Excellent. George Lucas would be turning in his grave if he was dead.

And yes, that HAD to be Sniper at the end. :0)

And if anyone is wondering, the background music to this is the Propellerheads version of On Her Majesty's Secret Service... the original plan was to put Star Wars music over the background, but then I realised that the more I do, the less Star Warsy it becomes... and the story wasn't exactly Star Warsy to begin with.

Hense the trailer, for those that have watched it.

And yes, the last person you see is Sniper.
