There seems to be a bug on mine where my main captain is surrounded by clones of his first officer, rather than the entire bridge staff. Is there a way to fix it?

I love Star Trek IV, or "Star Trek Saves the Whales" as I like to call it. It is my favorite Star Trek movie, and I don't know why.

If you have Photoshop or ImageReady you can just do a screen shot and crop?

I paid for Snagit as I also use it for work.


EDIT: Or what they all said up there ^

I really did enjoy this movie, in fact this was the first movie I saw which lead me back to watching the previous ones. Bu there is a clever piece of editing to wake you all up. We'll just say "It's an alternate universe" but a definite possible outcome of the USS Yorktown's hasty return to service. Enjoy

If you have Windows 7 you can simply use the snipping tool in the Accessories folder.

The icon looks like this:



But you can apparently download it to use it in older OSs.

If you do PrintScreen and then go into Paint and then paste, you'll get the entire screen, which you can trim down to the above image. Doing a full screen capture means you get all the visuals that a screenshot in your game files cuts out out.

I think I must have broken some sort of record with this game... I bought it the day it came out, and by the following monday I had traded it in! :( Played it a lot over that initial weekend, but then got frustrated SO much at how repetitive it was and downright glitchy in places that I gave up. I think the final moment was when I was stuck on the same bit of corridor for maybe the third, fourth time and I noticed a poor Gorn had spawned inside a wall, and he couldnt kill me and I couldn't kill him... and I thought 'trade!' :(

Re: Star Trek Into Disappointment (spoilers abound)

Like most Trekkies, I looked forward to this film for literally *years!* Loved the 2009 reboot and was hungry for more in its successor but... it just all felt a bit hollow. Like it was all about the CGI, 'major events' and setpieces and less about actual character interactions, developments and growth. :(


*SPOILER WARNING*


The first half of the film, I was actually enjoying but then there's a moment about halfway and it all seems to be downhill from there. Seen it twice now with huge expectations both times, and felt really deflated by the end.

And is it just me but what about thousands of deaths at Starfleet HQ at the end and literally no comment from any character about that?!! Oh, hang on.. it's OK they were CGI-effects deaths and they dont count!!

I was going to make a 3rd cinema trip to see it - but literally cannot be bothered (and I saw 2009 Star Trek 7 times on the big screen, I loved it that much!) I'll watch it again when I get the bluray and MAYBE to watch it without such huge expectations, at which point I hope to actually enjoy it more!

How can I get into this:-) I love mixing/ matching songs.


I use a software product called MixMeister (an older version) where I pick and arrange songs, and also sometimes mix them to create seamless transitioning between tracks. I've had a lot of fun with it to where it's become sort of a hobby, so I put out a podcast-style mp3 about every month or so.

The graphics for each playlist are done in Photoshop, and using (mostly) my own photography and screenshots. :)

I think that some people's disappointment with this movie (as others have said), is because in large part, they're hoping for the traditional Star Trek that they remember.

After seeing the first movie, I realized that for me to be able to enjoy the new series, I could no longer think of the J.J. movies as the Star Trek I'd come to know and love; the two are completely different and separate things in my mind, despite them having the same name. They're just movies designed to cast as wide of a net as possible, in order to bring in the biggest audience and net the most money, without challenging social norms or providing hope for the future, beyond the potential for good looking guys in their early thirties to be sailing through space, representing Earth behind the wheel of a Trillion dollar space ship.

As heart-wrenching as it at first was to come to terms with the fact that the franchise I loved wasn't represented in the reboot, it really has allowed me to enjoy the movies for what they are as opposed to being upset over what they're not... and then I squee a little bit when there's a reference or head-nod to the Star Trek series that I really care about :D

I can always justify inconsistencies with the alternate timeline mumbo-jumbo. I just don't take it seriously, and it allows me to be happy with the entertainment, while I wait for a real Star Trek series to make it's way back to TV.




I can almost understand the studio's frustration with the Trek franchise, though. Trekkies and Trekkers are notoriously difficult people to please, so when how many movies (Generations, Insurrection and Nemesis come to mind), which were all met with stiff opposition from the Trek community, and their new television series (Enterprise) was so unsupported by Trek fans to the point that it had to be cancelled, it makes sense for them to have thrown their hands up in exasperation and try to make the franchise appeal to a wider audience. In a sense, it could almost be argued that Star Trek fans have done this to themselves.

In fairness, I also refused to watch Enterprise when it was on TV, so I'm as much to blame as anyone... now a few years later, I've bought and watched the series and enjoyed it immensely. There was a lot of good Trek in that series, but I couldn't let myself see it at the time.

I guess, in conclusion.. go see James Bond: In space (aka: Star Trek), and I think you'll still enjoy it ;)


So true.

My 5th arrangement is available for download here. Journeys in between; no more, nor less. Also, pardon my amateur mixing skills.

Thanks again for letting me share here, Summer is well on the way and so are teh jams.

Thanks for listening, :)
Steve

P.S.: As with any material posted here, the above is likely best experienced with headphones/buds.
