XMAS2006 - BorgMan - 'Merry Christmass Bob!' - Scifi-Meshes.com

BorgMan · 12-10-2006, 10:09 PM

Allright, I've been looking into this for the past days, and I've come up with a scenario...

Imagine a cityscape from ReBoot. The sky is colored green instead of purple by a game-cube that is descending out of the hole in the sky. But the 'cube is dressed as a package! This isn't the User itself who has just decided to play a merry game, because directly right of that 'cube we see a VidWindow: Megabyte! "Merry christmass, Bob!"

I'm in desperate need of ReBoot references, tho, I couldn't find so much and the one episode I do have is one from season 3: "End Prog"which doesn't give me a good view on how it looks when a game-cube is descending from the heavens to torment the Mainframe inhabitants. Any help would be appreciated in that light

I can't help with the references, but that sounds like a cool project. I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

go to the site TV Links and you should see reboot in the cartoon section. Hope that helps.

BorgMan · 12-11-2006, 01:33 PM

Woow, they've got eps on Youtube!?! I'll have to check that out when I'm home!

Now to find a way to copy stuff from there to my own HD because my wannabe dial-up connection sucks in streaming stuff...

You might be able to right-click and hit "save target as" and save it. I use dialup also, so I hear you on that one.

Evil Genius I hope that wasn't supposed to be a pun about dail up!

evil_genius_180 · 12-13-2006, 05:21 AM

No pun. Streaming video or audio is a pain in the butt using dialup. It was genuine empathy.

BorgMan · 12-14-2006, 08:53 AM

*hyperpoke* It took me a while to get the concept done but here it is

Now to find out if there's a poser file of Bob and Dot, and perhaps even Megabyte. That would make it a lot easier as I would only have to focus on the cityscape itself...

If you use Windows any version past 98 you can go into temp internet files and pull the file from there after you have played it on YouTube.

Sounds like a fun project!
