how does one really fold a fitted bed sheet?
Sitting and enjoying a meal of rare Cygnus-style steak and sipping vintage Ganymede wine, I ponder the meaning of life, the universe, and. Excited to see this whole new universe for myself, I pooled 270 years of savings interest and booked passage aboard a swanky Gamma Class corvette. The galaxy is now teeming with spiffy little starliners, zipping around to all kinds of swanky space resorts. Just sit in a chair and take in the atmosphere.Alright, I awoke from 270 years of cryo-stasis aboard a sub-light colony ship to find that technology had passed me by in the meantime. The voice can be disabled and then you can quietly wander around on your own. I made some vids awhile back, on Youtube. This way I can't mess up my actual machine. A little virtual Windows XP within VirtualBox. I actually tend to set these programs up within a virtual machine. This app uses an ancient 16-bit Quicktime (it was actually written for Windows 3.1!) It can't coexist with the 32-bit Quicktime that Captain's Chair uses.
You need to have a version of Windows that's XP or older.įor the TNG Tech Manual you also want to get this version of Quicktime. But the catch is that these programs are ancient and are troublesome to run. They actually made a mistake for the E-D's bridge this time (they used the engineering audio instead). My avatar is from this program.Ĭaptain's Chair does only the bridge, but includes the Defiant, TOS Enterprise, E-E, E-D, and Voyager.
Each of these areas has the appropriate ambient audio. The TNG Tech Manual has the major areas of the D, including the bridge, engineering, conference lounge, transporter room, sickbay, and various quarters. Yes it has a lot of content from the book with the same name, but here it's all interactive! The other big app is Star Trek Captain's Chair.īoth of these let you wander various sets. The Star Trek The Next Generation Interactive Technical Manual is by far the most in-depth of these.
There are a couple of old computer software products that came out that are virtual tours of the various Star Trek ships. There's also a contact page there, if you'd like to email me directly about getting a copy. There's a whole bunch of info, and sound bite at. Now, it would just be interesting to hear some feedback on the quality of the production. My business interest in selling the CD has pretty much dried up. I would be happy to share a few copies of the CD with anyone who was interested.
But for more interest, I chose to create the ambiance of a starship bridge. It does have the rumble everyone has talked about. It's a very nice production, featuring 60 minutes of uninterrupted starship ambiance.
I still have a few cases of shrink wrapped CDs. Sold a few 100, then kinda thru in the towel. I actually marketed my CD back in the 90s via ads in Sci Fi magazines. Like a few have mentioned in this thread, I too was interested in having some sort of continuous background sound that suggested you were aboard a spaceship, traveling thru the galaxy. But a few years back, I produced an audio CD titled Starship Ambience. Please don't mis-read this post as an advertisement.
I'm a life long Trek fan (TOS, STNG, movies, etc.), and also a full time working musician based in Nashville TN. I stumble onto this thread via a Google search and had to respond.
