Add-ons of the Month:
We have several developers interested:

• dbeachy1
• Art
• Dan Steph
• Enjo
• David413

Currently Art might claim December but that may change.

I will give each developer a month. Their addon will be the front cover and their story the feature story.

Attention all. The planned deadline for articles for this month (December's) is the

8/ 9 December (Saturday, Sunday). If everyone can have their articles to me by then, we should get a 15/ 16 December release date.

Tex, this doesn't apply to you.

If you need help or clarification don't hesitate to PM me.

If I don't get a PM with either an article or help by Saturday I will PM anyone concerned.

[Tex]

What do I need to do?

 

[Bj]

arnt you supposed to make the front page pic?

 

[NukeET]

arnt you supposed to make the front page pic?

Thought that there was a contest for that.

 

[tl8]

Well, a) there have been no entries and b) that wasn't for the cover anyway.

At the current rate, with some people away for holidays, this might only be able to be released next year. :thumbsdown:

 

[Bj]

Thought that there was a contest for that.

Ya, I know, but I dont see very many people posting, do you?

(pssst. you can post if you want!)

Hope you're sitting down. I haven't installed DG-IV yet.

So, by way of contest rules, can't even submit a screen shot just yet.

Yet I must admit to get front cover image credit for the first issue of Delta V would be :speakcool:....so much for my day dreams.

Don't get your hopes up, there been a lot of miss communication about this (it was a very busy day)the screen shot would be on the second page and the authur credited, but since no entries yet it won't apply.

[Tex]

What more do you need from me at this point mate?

Detla V

I have decided to start up Delta V again. I need about 2 to 3 Articles about Orbiter, Addons, tutorials or anything the readers might find interesting.

Please PM me if interested.

Thanks TL8

Sorry,

I'm confused. Is this going to be an e-zine, or are we dealing with paper here?

Either way, it's an exciting prospect.

 

[unussapiens]

If we are going by the original plans (which I assume we are) it is going to be an e-zine.

I am pleased to announce the release of the very first issue of Delta V.

Hi tl8, this is absolutely a great initiative, thanks for that!
The magazine content looks very good for a first issue, especially the interviews and texture tutorial, etc. I'll try to print it when I have some time, so I can comfortably read it.

regards,
mcduck

Sorry but I'm having a few problems opening the pdf (tried with Acrobat Reader 5.0.1, GSView and a few other more recent pdf viewer programs or online pdf viewers).

Is anyone else having the same issue? What should be the file size of the pdf? Would be possible to make the pdf more 'compatible' (in case the problem is not on my side of the Net)?

Thanks in advance for any help,
António
