■ Release Notes ■
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First, ignore the TWK screw ups for the moment.
We will explain why the game itself is a valid scene release.

06/15/05 - Star Fury Targets Retail Stores
Montreal, Canada. May 10, 2005 -- Strategy First and Malfador Machinations are
happy to announce that they will be bringing the popular online title Star Fury
to retail stores nationwide.
...
Star Fury is anticipated to be released in June, 2005 and will be available
for purchase at all major retailers at a suggested retail price of $19.99.
Rated Everyone by ESRB. For more information please visit www.malfador.com.

Ok, yes this is a "new version" of the old game you all know (and love?) called
"Space Empires: Starfury".
However, the newest available patch for the old Starfury is v1.15.
Here you have a 2005 *Commercial* STORE release of this game at v1.17!
1.17 is not a free patch. You can not grab it off the web (at least not yet &
there is no indication from the developer that you ever will be able to do so).
You have seen this type of release before in the countless iterations of the
game known as X-Plane v#.#! Or also Fritz v#.#.
These companies will put out a new version every half year or every year with a
new version. And of course all the ISO/RIP groups make a new release of it.
X-Plane 6.0, X-Plane 7.0... But hey you scream, thats a dupe, its just a
re-release of the same game. We think so, but the scene allows it.
So, you got 1.15 in 2003, and a new 1.17 Commercial release with 2005 Files.
Um, we and most scene policies consider that a valid "new release".
PROPER NOTE:
------------
If you accept this GAME as a valid addition to scene sites, then you consider
our PROPER too. TWK has bad FILE_ID.DIZ files like "[1/1]" causing mostly
ALL SCENE SITES to have an incomplete version of their release. With no DIZ
fix in sight, and the fact that the "race is over", the TWK release is nuked
pretty much everywhere. On 10 Sites we checked (including a FORMER TWK site),
most had *only* disks 1 & 2 out of *21 total* (if the TWK NFO is correct).
One site had disks #3 & #4 and surprisingly one even had #6 and #7 with #5
oddly missing.
We at TNT and most likely 99% of scene could not find disks 8-21 anywhere.
Take our proper release and spread it far and wide my children!
* Note the SRR "rules" and I quote:
It is highly regarded when all sounds, speech and music
are included in a rip and not intentionally put out as
add-ons.
-END Quote
* And note MYTH's Juiced proper NFO quote:
Thus the future of rip is in limiting how much traffic you incur,
whilst still maintaining the quality of the warez you wish to obtain.
-END Quote
You know what folks, when you want to quickly grab a release just to see if you
might like it or to see if it will even run on your PC, you kind of want a
small CORE components version of the game.
Meaning you don't need 100megs of backgroud music to be included in the MAIN
rip, just to find the game sucks. god what a waste of speed you think...
** 'highly regarded' ** is not a rule, it's a suggestion by the authors of SRR.
It is also one we do NOT agree with.
Take a small 50meg rip to try the game? Or get it all with music and speech
included at 150meg? TNT says: give the end users a choice if they want the
background music or not.
You know.. the reason why they liked to include EVERYTHING possible in the rip
was because people had a hard time finding game addons (both sceners and lame
leechers). "Lets put it all in one rip, so you dont have to worry about
finding addons" -they thought.
Well as we explained above, it's a waste of space and bandwidth to force-feed
NON-ESSENTIAL game data (like movies, music, speech) down the throats of your
intended "low bandwidth audience" ... They are the *only reason* we are making
these rips (or it SHOULD be the only reason why RIPs are made - catering to
those with low bandwidth or megabytes limited per month).
NOTE: making a 'proper' of our release with music included is not a valid
proper reason (SRR suggestions are not SRR rules).
Game Info
---------
"Master of your Own Destiny" has a whole new meaning in Star Fury! As a
starship captain you'll be exploring the furthest reaches of space in search of
fame, fortune, and adventure. You might think upgrading your starship with high
performance tech will be the advantage that keeps you alive _ but that really
isn't enough. In a galaxy filled with warp points, unfriendly aliens, asteroid
belts, and cosmic storms, teaming up with large fleet operations might be your
only chance for survival. Will you be a respectable trader or a bloodthirsty
pirate? Your actions decide your fate in a hostile universe!
Star Fury is a science-fiction action RPG where you assume the role of a
starship captain. The risks you're willing to take as commander secure your
legacy of eternal wealth and power or ultimately are responsible for your
demise in the cold emptiness of space.

■ TNT News ■
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are the REAL original TNT. Any other groups who have tried to front as
TNT over the years were just imposters.
TNT knows that you all love the original SFV data in our NFO files.
Too many "new" sites, using cookie-cutter scripts and that god-awful
zipscript-c (aka project-zs), ruin all the nice SFV files in the scene!

■ TNT Members ■

You know who we are. And we know who you are.

■ Joining TNT ■
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TNT works in all languages.
We seek like-minded individuals who are able to provide or create software in
any language for release into the scene.
Like most 'respectable' groups, TNT is non-profit.
We release for the challenge of reverse engineering, the excitement of the
race to win against other groups, and the spirit of fair competition.
Positions are open for the following.
Crackers : Experienced programmers and debuggers with assembly language
knowledge who can produce Cracks, such as NoCDs & the removal of
commercial protections, for games and applications.
Coders : Experienced programmers who can produce KeyMakers, Game Trainers,
or SavedGame file editors. (Assembly or C language is required)
Game Ripper: Create ripped versions of full games. Rips retain game
functionality while having non-essential data (such as movies or
music) stripped out. People, especially those on slower dial-up
connections, can try out a game rip before deciding to buy the
full version.
Scanning : Printed Box Art, CDs, & Manuals for new games and applications.
FileHacker : Create All Access Enabled (Unlocked) SavedGames.
Modify game data files to enable Cheated Stats.
Scan game executables to locate Cheat Codes (no web thieves).
Suppliers : Provide retail versions of new unreleased software, either games
or applications.
Siteops : 10mbit or faster sites on linux/unix with at least 100gigs space.
Preference is for sites with sections of 0day, iso, dox, pda,
or console exclusively.
Before contacting us, please consider that Movie/Video or MP3
sections are not desirable to us. Big movie/mp3 sites that have
iso, 0day, or dox as an afterthought are not for TNT. Sorry.
What TNT does not need:
Couriers, Pre Whores, Site/Bot Scripters, Thieves, Group Hoppers, Leechers,
Narqs, Narcs, nor undercover agents.

Those who seek TNT will find a way to get in touch with us.
Just ask around for the #1 Dox group.
TNT has no email address, nor a web site. Any you find are surely fake.
