A Very Short Note...
It's been a few busy months since we last sent out an edition of X-Universe News, in fact we've all been so busy that we didn't even have much time to write about it.
Enjoy!

Release in October!
That's right, X3: Terran Conflict has reached Gold status. That means we have created the master copy of the game and it has been delivered to the publishers who will soon start production.
X3: Terran Conflict is a brand new, stand-alone game set in the universe of X³. It is the culmination of the X trilogy, with a grand finale that takes us all the way back to Earth's own solar system. Gamers can take on the roles of different characters in the X universe, or of a Terran military pilot, and experience a multitude of stories in the largest X universe ever featured - for X3: Terran Conflict will offer more missions than any other X game before. Meanwhile, X3: Terran Conflict will pose questions such as: How has Earth changed in all these years? And how will relations between Earth and its counterparts in the X universe develop?
If everything goes as planned you will be able to buy X3: Terran Conflict on DVD in stores on October 10th. X3: Terran Conflict will also be available via online distribution through Steam. Pre-Loading starts on September 25th.

A spaceship made from paper?
The very first 3D models for the X games were technical drawings on graph paper from where their measurements were then transferred into the game files.
A few words from the creator of this marvelous piece of paper-spaceship engineering:
Ciprian aka the4ce:
Want to show your appreciation? Thinking of building your own spaceships? Questions?
To download the model and instructions, click here: Argon Buster (paper model) (instruction file is in .pdo format which requires the Pepakura Viewer)
