Space Dream Factory — Press Release

A highly anticipated update called “Skirmish Pack” for the popular SDF game “Babylon 5: I’ve Found Her — Danger and Opportunity” is finally released!

Since the release in December 2003 of the original game, “Babylon 5: I’ve Found Her — Danger and Opportunity”, based on the highly popular Babylon 5 TV series created by J. Michael Straczynski, the entire SDF team worked hard to make it even better. Now, after many months of work, it is finally done! Offering gamers the ultimate gameplay experience, “Skirmish Pack” gives you some new amazing features, retaining everything from the original release and adding much more!

The long-anticipated mission simulator allows players to re-experience missions from the original campaign, or create and play their own missions! It also includes the so-called “Skirmish mode”, or custom mission generator, where you can test your skills against the various opponents (including some of the alien ships) in three types of mission scenarios: assault, defense and simple skirmish. In this mode players will be able to enjoy virtually unlimited replayability of their custom-built skirmishes.

A major addition to the game is the LAN multiplayer with top number of 8 allowed players, with several types of scenarios: cooperative, free-for-all and team deathmatch. Challenge your friends in multiplayer battles, shooting, sliding, rolling and getting the large doses of adrenaline-surging action! Or join them in cooperative mode, helping each other to fight your way throught the well-known campaign missions from the single-player game!

Another important addition is the graphics. The real-time volumetric shadows give more depth and realism to the rendered scenes, creating a new visual experience. The sharp detail textures provide the best look on ships and installations at close range, eliminating the blurry texture enlargement. The advanced particle system effects improve the quality of the special effects, such as explosions, fire, smoke and debris from destroyed ships.

Even-better looking real-time 3D graphics, new gameplay features and multiplayer mode, all taking place in a detailed simulation of the Babylon 5 universe, must keep players busy perfecting their skills, until they eventually meet a new challenge! Wait for further announcements from SDF team — more good news are coming soon!

The “Skirmish Pack” is available in 2 packages:
Update Package — requires the initial release of the game in order to be installed and played (73 MB).
Full Package — includes the original and updated game data, can be installed and played as standalone game (257 MB).
