<p>Ray Djo: /* Report */</p>
<hr />
<div>===About===<br />
The purpose of this course is to teach you how to properly download and install the current mission, and how to properly report on that mission.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Graduation Criteria===<br />
<br />
'''Cadet Graduate:''' - Award: Ribbon<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send in TFR file, SS, and Stats<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Senior Cadet:''' - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send in TFR file, SS, Stats, and narrative (MINIMUM 500 words).<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Master Cadet with Honors:''' - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Two Missions<br />
<br />
-Send in TFR files, SS’s, Stats, and quality Personal Narrative for both. Narratives can be in either first or third person, MINIMUM 500 words each.<br />
<br />
===What To Do===<br />
<br />
Until there is a set standard training mission, you will get a mission from your instructor to download. You will download the mission and extract all the files. Move the file from wherever you downloaded it to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/TIE95<br />
<br />
Now, if you have never downloaded a custom mission before, you will need to rename your "Mission" Folder. Rename it as MSNORG (For Mission Original). This way you wont lose your regular missions. Create a new folder, and name it "Mission". This is where you will be placing the files that you have just downloaded. You will need to rename the file "b1m1fm.tie". If there is a briefing, it should automatically come up with the mission. Depending on who wrote the mission for the ITOD, you will also find a .doc file. This is for your convenience so that you have some story line to go with your mission so that you can write a narrative. You also need an INV file in that folder that you will probably have to move over from the original folder.<br />
<br />
Once you have your file in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! Please Note: When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, you '''MUST''' create a '''NEW''' pilot! You '''MAY NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you '''delete''' the original one first. If you do not create a NEW pilot, the stats from your first run will be included in your "overall" stats and will NOT accurately reflect your score. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Incoming Personnel", name your "pilot" - "Incoming", "Personnel", or a combination of both. During the ITOD, you can refly the missions as many times as you want, but you still need new pilot files for every refly. Sometimes, you end up with "Incoming19" before you get a score that is halfway acceptable. It happens. Don't worry about it! But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />
<br />
When you report for an ITOD, you will use the RS Mission Reporter. We aren't quite up to that yet.<br />
<br />
For your very first mission, you will report the score, whether it is a success or a failure. We don't really care what your score is, we just want to know that you can load a Custom Mission and get the idea of how to report.<br />
<br />
This is what I want you to do:<br />
<br />
-Upon completion of your mission, pass or fail, take a screen shot (SS) of the page that has your score on it. Fraps is an excellent SS program, but you have to change the file to a jpg file before you report it, or it wont go through.<br />
<br />
-Also for this game, you are required to send in a Pilot File (tfr). To do this, you will need to go to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/TIE95. You will see the name of your tfr file above the folders. So if you named your pilot "Incoming" you will see "INCOMING.tfr".<br />
<br />
''''''NOTE!!!''' Occasionally you wont see your pilot file in this section. I am not sure why it does this, but if you DONT see your plt file for some reason, you need to go to: Computer/C/Users/(your user name)/AppData/Local/Virtual Store/Program Files/LucasArts/Tie95. This is ONLY for Vista and Windows 7. XP doesnt have this layout!!!!!''' <br />
<br />
-In an email to your instructor, as well as the rest of your squad if you wish you should put what things that you see on your debrief so that we know how you did without opening the picture. (Score, pass/fail, kills, hit%, et al.) Also put your SS and TFR file in this email. And with that, you are done!<br />

<div>'''Mi az a Kezdők Útja (BP)?'''<br />
<br />
Egy teendÅ‘lista az új tagok számára, amelybÅ‘l megismerkedhetnek a Rebel Squadrons-szal, és magával a honlappal. ElérhetÅ‘ bárki számára, aki kapitányi (Captain) rendfokozat alatt szolgál, tehát az összes kadét (Cadet) és hadnagy (Lieutenant) teljesÃtheti. Amint elÅ‘léptettek kapitánnyá, már nem számÃtasz kezdÅ‘nek, Ãgy az utat nem fejezheted be.<br />
<br />
Az Út öt kategóriára van osztva: Alapok, Kommunikáció, Oktatás, Egyéb és Haladó. Összesen 30 pont érhető el ezekben, a pontok gyűjtése pedig jutalmakat eredményez a következőképpen:<br />
<br />
'''* 10 pont: "Kezdők Útja Szalag" (BP Ribbon) és előléptetés Alhadnagy rendfokozatba (Lieutenant Junior Grade)'''<br />
'''* 20 pont: "Kezdők Útja Becsületszalag" (BP Honors Ribbon) és előléptetés Hadnagy rendfokozatba (2nd Lieutenant)'''<br />
'''* 30 pont: "KezdÅ‘k Útja Mesterszalag", (BP Master's Ribbon) a legjobban teljesÃtÅ‘k számára'''<br />
<br />
Az Úton fellelhetÅ‘ összes feladat leÃrása következik.<br />
<br />
==Alapok==<br />
<br />
'''ErÅ‘sÃtsd meg az e-mail cÃmedet.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
Ez az elsÅ‘ lépés a KezdÅ‘k Útján, ezáltal hozol létre egy olyan profilt az RS-ben, amellyel az Út többi részét teljesÃtheted. Miután kitöltötted és elküldted a jelentkezési lapodat, egy e-mailt kapsz, ami az internetes levélcÃmed megerÅ‘sÃtésére kér. Klikkelj a levélben található linkre, hogy aktiváld RS profilodat.<br />
<br />
'''Első kapcsolat (válaszolj az Elsődleges Oktatódtól kapott e-mailre).'''<br />
'''1 pont. Adminisztrátori jóváhagyás szükséges: Tá'Ré Djo parancsnok.'''<br />
Online klubként legfontosabb kommunikáiciós eszközünk az e-mail. Ha nem érhetünk el, nem tudunk segÃteni sem. Ha fiókod spamként jelölné meg az Akadémia parancsnokától és ElsÅ‘dleges Oktatódtól érkezÅ‘ leveleket, állÃtsd át a szűrÅ‘det. Ha ezt megtetted, errÅ‘l úgy tudsz minket értesÃteni, hogy válaszolsz a hozzád érkezÅ‘ üdvözlÅ‘ levélre. Miután csapathoz kerültél, ellenÅ‘rizd, hogy megkapod-e az onnan érkezÅ‘ üzeneteket.<br />
<br />
'''Vegyél részt eligazÃtó beszélgetésen az oktatóddal.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Adminisztrátori jóváhagyás szükséges: Tá'Ré Djo parancsnok.'''<br />
ElsÅ‘dleges Oktatód (PI) egy darabig jóbarátod lesz, hiszen Å‘ mutatja be a klubot neked, és segÃt benne elhelyezkedni. Küldj neki egy üzenetet e-mailen, és jöjjetek össze egy beszélgetés erejéig IRC, AIM, Yahoo, MSN, Skype, stb. segÃtségével.<br />
<br />
'''Szerkeszd meg az RS szolgálati névjegyzék-profilodat.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
Keresd meg a profilszerkesztőt, és adj meg néhány információt magadról és karakteredről. Mentsd el a változtatásokat, hogy megkapd a pontot.<br />
<br />
'''Küldj e-mailt az RS oldaláról.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
A klub oldala lehetÅ‘vé teszi, hogy a többi tagnak levelet küldj. A két legismertebb út ehhez, hogy egy tag profilján található e-mail cÃmre klikkelsz, vagy a bal oldalon található "Email" linkre kattintasz.<br />
<br />
'''Ãrd meg karaktered életrajzát.'''<br />
'''2 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
Adj karakterednek egy kitalált hátteret azzal, hogy megÃrod életét. Egy kis történelemmel a hátad mögött és némi szerepjátékkal sokkal jobban fogod magad érezni a Rebel Squadrons berkein belül. Életrajzod itt még lehet rövid és egyszerű, de késÅ‘bb érdemes kibÅ‘vÃteni. Ha tippeket szeretnél kapni egy jó biográfia megÃrását illetÅ‘en, látogass el az RgF Akadémia életrajz útmutatójához.<br />
<br />
==Kommunikáció==<br />
<br />
'''Iratkozz fel a fórumra, és kösd össze a fórum adatlapodat a szolgálati névjegyzék-profiloddal.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
Egy új felhasználónevet kell létrehoznod, hogy Ãrhass a fórumra; ez a név bármi lehet. Miután ezt megtetted, lépj az RS menüdbe, és kösd RS profilodat a fórumnevedhez, Ãgy rendfokozatod és RS neved megjelenik a hozzászólásaidban.<br />
<br />
'''Szólj hozzá egyszer a fórumhoz.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Adminisztrátori jóváhagyás szükséges: Tá'Ré Djo parancsnok.'''<br />
Ãrj egy hozzászólást a fórumon belül bárhová - ez lehet személyes bemutatkozásod az Ãltalános (General) fórumon, egy válaszlevél flottád fórumán, vagy bármi más. Küldd el a hozzászólás linkjét Joshua Hawkins tengernagynak.<br />
<br />
'''Iratkozz fel IRC-re, csatlakozz az #rs_bar_and_grill csatornához, és üzenj az RS robotnak.'''<br />
'''3 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
Ha segÃtségre van szükséged az IRC használatát illetÅ‘en, akkor elÅ‘ször a chat felületünkre lépj be! Nyiss egy privát ablakot MrBot-tal, majd Ãrd be: !login PIN jelszó, behelyettesÃtve a személyes adataidat (pl.: !login 1306 kutya).<br />
<br />
'''Kommentelj egy RS hÃrt.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
Látogasd meg az RS hÃrarchÃvumát, majd kommentelj bármelyik hÃrhez, hogy megkapd ezt a pontot.<br />
<br />
'''TelepÃtsd az Xfire-t, a Voobly-t, vagy a GameRangert és add David "Heavy" Pasiechnyk-et a barátaidhoz.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Admin jóváhagyás szükséges: David "Heavy" Pasiechnyk tengernagy.'''<br />
Az Xfire egy gaming azonnali üzenetközvetÃtÅ‘ rendszer, mÃg a másik két program internetes játékokhoz való szerverprogram. Még ha nem is szándékozol multiban játszani a többi taggal, akkor is hasznos lehet feliratkozni, hiszen Ãgy kapcsolatba léphetsz azokkal is, akik IRC-n nincsenek fenn. Vedd fel "rsdavid"-et (Xfire), "_HeavyD"-t (Voobly), vagy "RS_HeavyD"-t (GameRanger) a barátaid közé, és amint Å‘ megkapta a felkérést, visszaigazol, és megadja neked ezt a pontot is.<br />
<br />
==Oktatás==<br />
<br />
'''Olvasd el mind az öt Szabályzati oldalt.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
A Szabályzat a Rebel Squadrons legmagasabb szintű törvénykönyve, Ãgy nagyon fontos, hogy megismerd Å‘ket, és tudd, miket követelnek meg. Olvasd el a Szabályzatot teljes egészében, hogy megkapd ezt a pontot.<br />
<br />
'''Olvasd el a Műveleti Kézikönyv 13 oldalát.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Automatikusan megkapod.'''<br />
A Műveleti Kézikönyv a te eligazÃtásod az RS-t illetÅ‘en. Nagyrésze a Szabályzatok egyszerűsÃtett, könnyebben érthetÅ‘ formája, de található benne szép számmal új információ is. Ha elolvastad az egészet, akkor már meg is tanultad a Rebel Squadrons-t érintÅ‘ összes lényegi irányelvet.<br />
<br />
==Egyéb==<br />
<br />
'''Szavazz tÃz aranyköpésre.'''<br />

Látogass el az RS Galériájába, tekintsd meg a többi tag képeit, ha gondolod, és tölts fel egy saját képet.

'''KészÃts egy avatárt fórumprofilodhoz.'''<br />
'''1 pont. Adminisztrátori jóváhagyás szükséges: Tá'Ré Djo prancsnok.'''<br />

Ahhoz, hogy kiérdemeld ezt a két pontot, az életrajzodnak érthetÅ‘ angol nyelven kell Ãrodnia, fednie kell karaktered személyiségének és történetének több vetületét is, valamint körülbelül 500, vagy több szóból kell állnia. ÉrtesÃtsd az ElsÅ‘dleges Oktatódat amint kész vagy, Å‘ majd átolvassa azt, és véleményezi. Ha megfeleltél, megadja a pontokat, ellenkezÅ‘ esetben rávilágÃt, miken kell javÃtani, hogy teljesÃtsd ezt a feladatot.<br />
<br />

'''3 pont. Adminisztrátori jóváhagyás szükséges: Tá'Ré Djo parancsnok.'''<br />
Vegyél részt egy elsÅ‘dleges feladatban abban a flottában, aminek tagja vagy: ez lehet egy ITOD-jelentés, egy multiplayer meccs, egy szerepjáték, egy beszámoló, stb. A teljesÃtés után küldj levelet Tá'Ré Djo parancsnoknak, hogy jóváÃrja az eredményedet.<br />
<br />
'''Szólj hozzá ötször a fórumhoz, ebből kétszer legalább 100 szóban.'''<br />
'''3 pont. Adminisztrátori jóváhagyás szükséges: Tá'Ré Djo parancsnok.'''<br />
Hogy jobban elmélyedj az RS beszélgetéseiben, postolj ötször a fórumon, ebből legalább kettőnek témába vágónak kell lennie közepes hosszúsággal: körülbelül 100 szó, vagy több. Amint ezzel végeztél, küldj egy levelet Joshua Hawkins tengernagynak és add meg neki az öt hozzászólásra mutató linkeket. Jóváhagyás után megkapod a pontot.<br />
<br />
'''Csatlakozz az RS Wikihez, és szerkessz vele.'''<br />
'''2 pont. Adminisztrátori jóváhagyás szükséges: David "Heavy" Pasiechnyk tengernagy.'''<br />
Menj az RS Wikihez (elérhetÅ‘ a bal navigációs sávon). KészÃts egy új fiókot a wikin, bármilyen felhasználónévvel, és szerkessz egy kedved szerinti oldalt (ez lehet akár a saját felhasználói oldalad is). Amint ezekkel végeztél, értesÃtsd a David "Heavy" Pasiechnyk tengernagyot az általad szerkesztett oldalra mutató linkkel, és Å‘ majd jóváhagyja neked ezt a pontot.<br />

Beginner's Path
2011-04-17T04:44:24Z
<p>Ray Djo: </p>
<hr />
<div>==<u>'''What is the Beginner's Path?'''</u>==<br />
<br />
It is a list of tasks for new members to undertake that familiarizes them with the Rebel Squadrons and its website. It is available to anyone of a rank under Captain, which is all Cadets and Lieutenants. Once you have reached Captain, you are not considered a "beginner" anymore, and the path becomes unavailable.<br />
<br />
The Path is divided into five categories: Basics, Communication, Education, Other, and Advanced. There are 30 possible points on the path, and earning points yields rewards in the following manner:<br />
<br />
* 10 points: "Beginner's Path Ribbon" and promotion to Lieutenant Junior Grade<br />
* 20 points: "Beginner's Path Honors Ribbon" and promotion to 2nd Lieutenant<br />
* 30 points: "Beginner's Path Master's Ribbon", for high-achieving members<br />
<br />
A description of each of the tasks on the Path follows.<br />
<br />
<br />
====<u>'''Basics'''</u>====<br />
<br />
'''Confirm your email address.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
This is the first step on the Beginner's Path, and it provides you with a RS profile with which you will be able to complete the rest of the Path. After you complete and submit the RS join form, you will receive an email from our site asking you to confirm your email address. Go to the link in the email to activate your RS profile.<br />
<br />
'''First Contact (Reply to an email from your Primary Instructor)'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
As an online club, email is one of our most important methods of communication. If we can’t get in touch with you, we can’t help you. De-spam the RS email addresses of the Academy CO and your Primary Instructor, to begin with. You can let us know that you have done this by replying to the initial emails that they will be sending out. After you get into a division, you will need to check the spam box a few times until you are sure that you are getting all the emails that you are supposed to be getting.<br />
<br />
'''Set up an Orientation Chat with your PI'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
Your Primary Instructor is going to be your “buddy†for a while, teaching you how to do things and showing you the ropes. Send him an email and get together via IRC, AIM, Yahoo, MSN, Skype, etc. Whichever chat client you both have, and talk to them for a bit. They will help you through the tough stuff!<br />
<br />
'''Edit your RS roster profile.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
Find the profile editor and add some information about yourself and your character. Submit your changes to earn this point.<br />
<br />
'''Send an email using the RS site.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
The RS site allows you to send email to other RS members. Two common ways to access the system are to click on a member's email address in their profile, or by using the "Email" link on the left nav bar.<br />
<br />
'''Write your character's biography.'''<br><br />
2 points. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
Give your character some fictional background by writing about him/her/it. Having a history and a way to act "in character" will make your Rebel Squadrons experience much more enjoyable. Your biography can be short and simple at this stage, but you may want to expand it later. For tips on a good biography, visit the RgF Academy's biography guide.<br />
<br />
<br />
====<u>'''Communication'''</u>====<br />
<br />
'''Sign up for the forums & link your roster and forum profiles.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
You will need to create a new username to post with on our forums; this can be whatever you like. After doing so, visit your RS menu and follow the link to connect your RS profile and your forum profile, so that your rank and RS name shows up on your posts.<br />
<br />
'''Post once on the forums.'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
Write one post anywhere on the forums - it can be introducing yourself on the General forum, responding a post on your fleet's forum, or whatever you like. Send the link to your post to VA Joshua Hawkins.<br />
<br />
'''Sign on to IRC, join #rebelsquadrons or #RSAcademy, and login to the RS bot.'''<br><br />
3 points. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
Please visit our chat website for assistance with IRC. To login to the RS bot, open a private message window with MrBot, then type "!login [your PIN] [your password]", substituting your own information. If you are having difficulties, try asking for help in #rebelsquadrons or #rsa.<br />
<br />
'''Make a comment on a RS news post.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
Visit the RS news archives and make one comment on any news post to earn this point.<br />
<br />
'''Install Xfire, Voobly, or GameRanger and add VA David "Heavy" Pasiechnyk to your friends list.'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: RA David Pasiechnyk.<br><br />
Xfire is a gaming instant messenger system and Voobly/GameRanger are game hosting systems. Even if you do not intend to play multiplayer games with other RSers, it is still useful to have as a form of instant messaging with RSers who are not found on IRC. For xfire, add username "rsdavid"; for Voobly, add "_HeavyD"; for GameRanger, add "RS_HeavyD", to your friends list and when he receives the request, he will award this point.<br />
<br />
====<u>'''Education'''</u>====<br />
<br />
Read all five Bylaws pages.<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
The Bylaws are the highest code of law in the Rebel Squadrons, and it is important to be familiar with them and know their dictates. Read the Bylaws in their entirety to earn this point.<br />
<br />
'''Read all thirteen Operations Manual pages.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
The Operations Manual is your briefing on the Rebel Squadrons. Much of it is an easier-to-understand version of the Bylaws, and there is also a good deal of new information as well. If you make it all the way through the OpsMan, you will have learned most of the essential information about the Rebel Squadrons. To access the OpsMan, click "Reference" on the left nav bar.<br />
<br />
<br />
====<u>'''Other'''</u>====<br />
<br />
'''Vote on ten quotes.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
Visit our Quotes Database and vote "Good" or "Poor" on any ten different quotes to earn this point. Enjoy the often wacky humor of RS members; the "Top Quotes" page is highly recommended.<br />
<br />
'''Upload one real-life or character picture to the gallery.'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo .<br><br />
Visit the RS Gallery, look at a few members' pictures if you want to, and upload one of your own. It should be a picture of you; if you are uncomfortable with a real-life picture, then you are free to upload a rendering of your RS character. This point will be awarded when an admin approves your submission.<br />
<br />
'''Create an Avatar for your Forum Profile'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
This is a great way to have some fun and show off your personality. WeeMee’s are always fun, but you can do whatever you want (keep it clean!). Email CMDR Tá'Ré Djo with a link to your forum profile when you have added your avatar.<br />
<br />
<br />
====<u>'''Advanced'''</u>====<br />
<br />
'''Write a quality biography of at least 500 words in length.'''<br><br />
3 points. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
You've written the first version of your biography; now write a lengthy one that you and your character can be proud of. Or perhaps you did that the first time. To earn these points, your biography must be written with good English, cover several aspects of your character's personality and history, and have approximately 500 words or more. Email your Primary Instructor when you think you are ready to submit your biography, and he will review it and notify you if it is good enough and you have earned the points, or what it still needs in order to be completed.<br />
<br />
'''Participate in one standard gaming activity, as defined by your fleet(s).'''<br><br />
3 points. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
Participate in a primary activity for a fleet you are in: one mission report on an ITOD, one multiplayer match, one sim, one post in a run-on, and so on. Send proof of this activity to CMDR Tá'Ré Djo to earn the point.<br />
<br />
'''Post five times on the forums, at least twice with 100 or more words.'''<br><br />
3 points. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
To enter more fully into the RS conversations, post five times on our forums, and at least two should be on-topic and of medium length: approximately 100 words or more. When you have completed this, send VA Joshua Hawkins the links to the five posts at which you wish him to take a look. He will award the point upon approval.<br />
<br />
'''Join the RS wiki and make an edit with it.'''<br><br />
2 points. Admin approval required: VA David "Heavy" Pasiechnyk.<br><br />
Find the RS wiki. Create a new account, with whatever username you like, and edit one page of whichever type you like, including your own user page. After you have done this, send RA David Pasiechnyk a link to the page you edited, and he will confirm it.<br />

<p>Ray Djo: </p>
<hr />
<div>===About===<br />
The '''[[Empire at War]]''' Under-graduate Course (short EaW UG Course) is here to make sure that new members have the necessary skills to be able to participate in the Rebel Squadrons' Empire at War unit, the Righteous Indignation Division (short RID).<br/><br />
<br />
EaW UnderGrad Course Instructor: LCL Teu Veld<br />
<br />
<br />
===Graduation Requirements===<br />
Graduating is easy; just complete the following requirements and you're on your way to play EaW with fellow RS members. A student '''must''' have obtained the rank of '''LJG Rank''' through the [http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/path/ Beginner's Path], or higher, in order to graduate.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Cadet''' - Award: Ribbon.<br />
<br />
- Play the RID ITOD 101 mission and send a screenshot of the results screen to the EaW UG Instructor. The RID ITOD 101 mission can be downloaded [http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/roster/itoddb/files/RID101.zip here].<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Senior Cadet''' - Award: Medal.<br />
<br />
- Play the RID ITOD 101 mission and send a screenshot of the results screen to the EaW Instructor.<br />
<br />
- For the second part of this, you have a choice. You may chose to:<br />
<br />
a) Write a '''Personal Narrative''', [http://vsg.rebelsquadrons.org/academy/narrative.php narrative], which should have at least 2 paragraphs describing what happened in your mission run (500 words or more). <br />
<br />
'''OR'''<br />
<br />
b) Play at least one '''MultiPlayer match with another RID member'''. To arrange a match use Xfire or go to the IRC channel #RID. Take a screenshot during that match and send the EaW Instructor that screenshot.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Master Cadet with Honors''' - Award: Medal.<br />
<br />
- Play the RID ITOD 101 mission and send a screenshot of the restults screen to the EaW Instructor.<br />
<br />
- Write a Personal Narrative (500 word MINIMUM)<br />
<br />
- Play a MultiPlayer match with another RID member and send in the screenshot of the results page.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Help: RID ITOD 101 Installation and Instructions===<br />
<br />
To get into action you have to unzip the [http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/roster/itoddb/files/RID101.zip mission file] and save it to your EaW/GameData/Data/CustomMaps folder. (If you have saved the game into its default directory, you should find the EaW directory in the C:/Program Files/Lucasarts directory) <br />
<br />
'''Note:''' You may have to create a folder in the directory named “CustomMaps†to put the mission file in. <br />
<br />
'''Remember to have the current patch installed which can be found [http://www.lucasarts.com/support/update/EAW1_5.html Here]'''<br />
In game choose single player - skirmish - space - custom maps , pick the RID 101 mission and you are ready to go. <br />
Play as Rebels, and put one AI as Empire. <br />
<br />
'''Settings:''' <br />
<br />
- Set the AI difficulty to easy. <br />
<br />
- Heroes, starting units and superweapons are all OFF. <br />
<br />
- Victory Conditions: Destroy enemy <br />
<br />
- Mission to be played on medium game speed. (If you haven't changed it, it should be on medium by default). Forwarding the speed in game is not allowed. <br />
<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />
When you play EaW for the ITOD, you will be reporting through the Mission Report System. We aren't quite up to that yet! The Academy Mission Report System isn't out just yet, so in the meantime, you should take a screenshot of the screen that appears after the battle ends - the screen where you can see your losses and kills. Please email all reports and narratives to your instructor for confirmation. Report your first run!<br />
<br />
A great screen capture utility is Fraps. Screenshots will be taken by fraps into a directory you define. You can get Fraps at this site: http://www.fraps.com/ It is highly recommended, however, if you use fraps, while you are just emailing your instructor, you can leave it as the file it automatically saved in. When you report on one of the Mission Report Systems, you will have to remember to change the file from bmp to jpg or it won't go through. You can also use the 'print screen' button on your keyboard, and Ctrl+v it into the Win painting program. <br />
<br />
After a student's graduation, the RID CO will be informed about the student's graduation. The RID CO will then assign the graduated student to a position in the RID. This may take a few days. If the student should be interested in joining a certain RID Task Force, s/he should let the EaW Instructor know before graduation.<br />
<br />
===Fictional Background of the RID 101 Mission===<br />
The RID ITOD 101 mission reflects the "[[Battle of Blerthmore]]" in which Imperial remnant forces attacked the homeworld of the Rebel Squadrons. RS Academy students get to replay this mission in a simulator to understand what started the current combat operations the student is going to join after graduation.<br />
<br />
The RS-wide ITOD 101 mission narrative can be found here: http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/news/read?id=861 <br />
<br />
Once you have played the RID ITOD 101 mission, you might want to have a look on the following two narratives:<br />
* http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/news/read?id=865<br />
* http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/news/read?id=885<br />
<br />
<br />
===NOTE:===<br />
All students who sign up for the Academy are to remain active during their time served. All students who do not report in, in any way, shape, or form, may be placed on an Absent Without Official Leave (AWOL) list. The Command Staff reserves the right to remove students at any time for inactivity or misbehavior in the Academy.<br />

<div>===About===<br />
<br />
The purpose of this course is to teach you how to properly download and install the current mission, and how to properly report on that mission.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Graduation Criteria===<br />
<br />
'''Cadet Graduate''': - Award: Ribbon<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send in SS and Stats<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Senior Cadet''': - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send SS, Stats, and narrative (MINIMUM 500 words).<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Master Cadet with Honors''': - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send in SS and stats, write Quality Personal Narrative, AND Fly a MP match, with SS. Narrative can be in either first or third person, MINIMUM 500 words.<br />
<br />
<br />
===What To Do===<br />
<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />
<br />
When you report for an ITOD, you will use the RS Mission Reporter. We aren't quite up to that yet. For your very first mission, you will report the score, whether it is a success or a failure. We don't really care what your score is, we just want to know that you get the idea of how to report.<br />
<br />
This is what I want you to do:<br />
<br />
-Upon completion of your mission, pass or fail, take a screen shot (SS) of the page that has your score on it. Fraps is an excellent SS program, but you have to change the file to a jpg file before you report it, or it wont go through.<br />
<br />
-In an email to your instructor, as well as the rest of your squad if you wish you should put what things that you see on your debrief so that we know how you did without opening the picture. (Score, pass/fail, kills, hit%, et al.) Also put your SS in this email. And with that, you are done!</div>

<hr />
<div>===About===<br />
The purpose of this course is to teach you how to properly download and install the current mission, and how to properly report on that mission.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Graduation Criteria===<br />
<br />
'''Cadet Graduate:''' - Award: Ribbon<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send in TFR file, SS, and Stats<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Senior Cadet:''' - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send in TFR file, SS, Stats, and narrative (MINIMUM 500 words).<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Master Cadet with Honors:''' - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Two Missions<br />
<br />
-Send in TFR files, SS’s, Stats, and quality Personal Narrative for both. Narratives can be in either first or third person, MINIMUM 500 words each.<br />
<br />
===What To Do===<br />
<br />
Until there is a set standard training mission, you will get a mission from your instructor to download. You will download the mission and extract all the files. Move the file from wherever you downloaded it to, to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/TIE95<br />
<br />
Now, if you have never downloaded a custom mission before, you will need to rename your "Mission" Folder. Rename it as MSNORG (For Mission Original). This way you wont lose your regular missions. Create a new folder, and name it "Mission". This is where you will be placing the files that you have just downloaded. You will need to rename the file "b1m1fm.tie". If there is a briefing, it should automatically come up with the mission. Depending on who wrote the mission for the ITOD, you will also find a .doc file. This is for your convenience so that you have some story line to go with your mission so that you can write a narrative. You also need an INV file in that folder that you will probably have to move over from the original folder.<br />
<br />
Once you have your file in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! Please Note: When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, you '''MUST''' create a '''NEW''' pilot! You '''MAY NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you '''delete''' the original one first. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Incoming Personnel", name your "pilot" - "Incoming", "Personnel", or a combination of both. During the ITOD, you can refly the missions as many times as you want, but you still need new pilot files for every refly. Sometimes, you end up with "Incoming19" before you get a score that is halfway acceptable. It happens. Don't worry about it! But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />
<br />
When you report for an ITOD, you will use the RS Mission Reporter. We aren't quite up to that yet.<br />
<br />
For your very first mission, you will report the score, whether it is a success or a failure. We don't really care what your score is, we just want to know that you get the idea of how to report.<br />
<br />
This is what I want you to do:<br />
<br />
-Upon completion of your mission, pass or fail, take a screen shot (SS) of the page that has your score on it. Fraps is an excellent SS program, but you have to change the file to a jpg file before you report it, or it wont go through.<br />
<br />
-Also for this game, you are required to send in a Pilot File (tfr). To do this, you will need to go to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/TIE95. You will see the name of your tfr file above the folders. So if you named your pilot "Incoming" you will see "INCOMING.tfr".<br />
<br />
-In an email to your instructor, as well as the rest of your squad if you wish you should put what things that you see on your debrief so that we know how you did without opening the picture. (Score, pass/fail, kills, hit%, et al.) Also put your SS and TFR file in this email. And with that, you are done!<br />

<br />
Until there is a set standard training mission, you will get a mission from your instructor to download. You will download the mission and extract all the files. Move the file from wherever you downloaded it to, to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/XWING95/X-Wing Data<br />
<br />
Now, if you have never downloaded a custom mission before, you will need to rename your "Mission" Folder. Rename it as MSNORG (For Mission Original). This way you wont lose your regular missions. Create a new folder, and name it "Mission". This is where you will be placing the files that you have just downloaded. You will need to rename the files as "defect.brf" and "defect.xwi". This is the briefing and then the mission. <br />
<br />
Once you have your files in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! '''Please Note:''' When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, '''you MUST create a NEW pilot!''' You MAY '''NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you delete the original one first. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Sabaac Part 1", name your "pilot" - "Sabaac1". During the ITOD, you can refly the missions as many times as you want, but you still need new pilot files for every refly. Sometimes, you end up with "Sabaac1f" before you get a score that is halfway acceptable. It happens. Don't worry about it! But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />

This is the briefing and then the mission. <br />
<br />
Once you have your files in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! '''Please Note:''' When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, '''you MUST create a NEW pilot!''' You MAY '''NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you delete the original one first. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Sabaac Part 1", name your "pilot" - "Sabaac1".

But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />
<br />
When you report for an ITOD, you will use the RS Mission Reporter. We aren't quite up to that yet. <br />
<br />
For your very first mission, you will report the score, whether it is a success or a failure. We don't really care what your score is, we just want to know that you get the idea of how to report. <br />
<br />
This is what I want you to do:<br />
<br />
-Upon completion of your mission, pass or fail, take a screen shot (SS) of the page that has your score on it. Fraps is an excellent SS program, but you have to change the file to a jpg file before you report it, or it wont go through. <br />
<br />
-Also for this game, you are required to send in a Pilot File (ptl). To do this, you will need to go to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/XWING95. You will see the name of your plt file underneath the folders. So if you named your pilot "Sabaac1" you will see "SABAAC1.PLT".<br />

<p>Ray Djo: /* Graduation Criteria */</p>
<hr />
<div>===About===<br />
The purpose of this course is to teach you how to properly download and install the current mission, and how to properly report on that mission.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Graduation Criteria===<br />
<br />
'''Cadet Graduate:''' - Award: Ribbion <br />
<br />
-Run Mission <br />
<br />
-Send in PTL file, SS, and Stats<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Master Cadet:''' - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Mission <br />
<br />
-Send in PLT file, SS, Stats, and narrative (MINIMUM 500 words).<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Master Cadet with Honors:''' - Award: Medal<br />
<br />
-Run Two Missions<br />
<br />
-Send in PLT files, SS’s, Stats, and quality Personal Narrative for both. Narratives can be in either first or third person, MINIMUM 500 words each.<br />
<br />
===What To Do===<br />
<br />
Until there is a set standard training mission, you will get a mission from your instructor to download. You will download the mission and extract all the files. Move the file from wherever you downloaded it to, to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/XWING95/X-Wing Data<br />
<br />
Now, if you have never downloaded a custom mission before, you will need to rename your "Mission" Folder. Rename it as MSNORG (For Mission Original). This way you wont lose your regular missions. Create a new folder, and name it "Mission". This is where you will be placing the files that you have just downloaded. You will need to rename the files as "defect.brf" and "defect.xwi". This is the briefing and then the mission. <br />
<br />
Once you have your files in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! '''Please Note:''' When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, '''you MUST create a NEW pilot!''' You MAY '''NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you delete the original one first. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Sabaac Part 1", name your "pilot" - "Sabaac1". During the ITOD, you can refly the missions as many times as you want, but you still need new pilot files for every refly. Sometimes, you end up with "Sabaac1f" before you get a score that is halfway acceptable. It happens. Don't worry about it! But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />
<br />
When you report for an ITOD, you will use the RS Mission Reporter. We aren't quite up to that yet. <br />
<br />
For your very first mission, you will report the score, whether it is a success or a failure. We don't really care what your score is, we just want to know that you get the idea of how to report. <br />
<br />
This is what I want you to do:<br />
<br />
-Upon completion of your mission, pass or fail, take a screen shot (SS) of the page that has your score on it. Fraps is an excellent SS program, but you have to change the file to a jpg file before you report it, or it wont go through. <br />
<br />
-Also for this game, you are required to send in a Pilot File (ptl). To do this, you will need to go to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/XWING95. You will see the name of your plt file underneath the folders. So if you named your pilot "Sabaac1" you will see "SABAAC1.PLT".<br />
<br />
-In an email to your instructor, as well as the rest of your squad if you wish you should put what things that you see on your debrief so that we know how you did without opening the picture. (Score, pass/fail, kills, hit%, et al.) Also put your SS and PLT file in this email. And with that, you are done!<br />

'''Cadet Graduate:''' - Award: Ribbon<br />
<br />
-Run Mission<br />
<br />
-Send in TFR file, SS, and Stats<br />
<br />

<br />
===What To Do===<br />
<br />
Until there is a set standard training mission, you will get a mission from your instructor to download. You will download the mission and extract all the files. Move the file from wherever you downloaded it to, to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/TIE95<br />
<br />
Now, if you have never downloaded a custom mission before, you will need to rename your "Mission" Folder. Rename it as MSNORG (For Mission Original). This way you wont lose your regular missions. Create a new folder, and name it "Mission". This is where you will be placing the files that you have just downloaded. You will need to rename the file "b1m1fm.tie". If there is a briefing, it should automatically come up with the mission. Depending on who wrote the mission for the ITOD, you will also find a .doc file. This is for your convenience so that you have some story line to go with your mission so that you can write a narrative. You also need an INV file in that folder that you will probably have to move over from the original folder.<br />
<br />
Once you have your file in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! Please Note: When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, you '''MUST''' create a '''NEW''' pilot! You '''MAY NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you '''delete''' the original one first. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Incoming Personnel", name your "pilot" - "Incoming", "Personnel", or a combination of both. During the ITOD, you can refly the missions as many times as you want, but you still need new pilot files for every refly. Sometimes, you end up with "Incoming19" before you get a score that is halfway acceptable. It happens. Don't worry about it! But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />

[[Category: Academy]]<br />
<br />
===What To Do===<br />
<br />
Until there is a set standard training mission, you will get a mission from your instructor to download. You will download the mission and extract all the files. Move the file from wherever you downloaded it to, to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/XWING95/X-Wing Data<br />
<br />
Now, if you have never downloaded a custom mission before, you will need to rename your "Mission" Folder. Rename it as MSNORG (For Mission Original). This way you wont lose your regular missions. Create a new folder, and name it "Mission". This is where you will be placing the files that you have just downloaded. You will need to rename the files as "defect.brf" and "defect.xwi". This is the briefing and then the mission. <br />
<br />
Once you have your files in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! '''Please Note:''' When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, '''you MUST create a NEW pilot!''' You MAY '''NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you delete the original one first. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Sabaac Part 1", name your "pilot" - "Sabaac1". During the ITOD, you can refly the missions as many times as you want, but you still need new pilot files for every refly. Sometimes, you end up with "Sabaac1f" before you get a score that is halfway acceptable. It happens. Don't worry about it! But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />
===Report===<br />
<br />
When you report for an ITOD, you will use the RS Mission Reporter. We aren't quite up to that yet. <br />
<br />
For your very first mission, you will report the score, whether it is a success or a failure. We don't really care what your score is, we just want to know that you get the idea of how to report. <br />
<br />
This is what I want you to do:<br />
<br />
-Upon completion of your mission, pass or fail, take a screen shot (SS) of the page that has your score on it. Fraps is an excellent SS program, but you have to change the file to a jpg file before you report it, or it wont go through. <br />
<br />
-Also for this game, you are required to send in a Pilot File (ptl). To do this, you will need to go to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/XWING95. You will see the name of your plt file underneath the folders. So if you named your pilot "Sabaac1" you will see "SABAAC1.PLT".<br />
<br />
-In an email to your instructor, as well as the rest of your squad if you wish you should put what things that you see on your debrief so that we know how you did without opening the picture. (Score, pass/fail, kills, hit%, et al.) Also put your SS and PLT file in this email. And with that, you are done!<br />

<br />
<br />
===What To Do===<br />
<br />
Until there is a set standard training mission, you will get a mission from your instructor to download. You will download the mission and extract all the files. Move the file from wherever you downloaded it to, to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/TIE95<br />
<br />
Now, if you have never downloaded a custom mission before, you will need to rename your "Mission" Folder. Rename it as MSNORG (For Mission Original). This way you wont lose your regular missions. Create a new folder, and name it "Mission". This is where you will be placing the files that you have just downloaded. You will need to rename the file "b1m1fm.tie". If there is a briefing, it should automatically come up with the mission. Depending on who wrote the mission for the ITOD, you will also find a .doc file. This is for your convenience so that you have some story line to go with your mission so that you can write a narrative. You also need an INV file in that folder that you will probably have to move over from the original folder.<br />
<br />
Once you have your file in the right spot, close your folders, and get to flying! Please Note: When you fly a mission, you have to create a pilot. When you fly a second mission, you '''MUST''' create a '''NEW''' pilot! You '''MAY NOT''' use the same pilot name unless you '''delete''' the original one first. A good way to keep track of what you have done is to actually name your "pilot" the name of the mission. IE: If the Mission Name is "Incoming Personnel", name your "pilot" - "Incoming", "Personnel", or a combination of both. During the ITOD, you can refly the missions as many times as you want, but you still need new pilot files for every refly. Sometimes, you end up with "Incoming19" before you get a score that is halfway acceptable. It happens. Don't worry about it! But by naming them this way, if there is ever a problem with our system, you can always go back and grab your pilot file for verification of your score.<br />
<br />
<br />

-Also for this game, you are required to send in a Pilot File (tfr). To do this, you will need to go to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/TIE95. You will see the name of your tfr file above the folders. So if you named your pilot "Incoming" you will see "INCOMING.tfr".<br />

<br />
===Code Of Conduct===<br />
<br />
=====Instructors=====<br />
<br />
The Instructors are here to help the new Cadets first and foremost, but are also here to assist the CO of the Academy, since the CO can't do everything by himself/herself. They are to be in constant contact with the Cadets under their designated divisions, as well as reporting to the CO to ensure that nobody is being left unattended. Emails should be sent out to Cadets by their primary instructor WEEKLY, preferably on a Sunday or Monday. The CO of the Academy will send out bi-weekly emails to the Academy as s/he sees fit, on Fridays or Saturdays.<br />
<br />
When discussing matters of the Academy, through email or other chat client, both the CO AND the instructors will act professionally and civilly to each other. If the instructors can not, or simply refuse to act accordingly, they will be issued a warning. After 2 warnings, they will be removed from their position on the third offense.<br />
<br />
There will be bi-weekly progress reports by email on the 1st and 16th of every month for everyone who has a Cadet under their supervision, even if it just a message to say that progress is slow moving. Failure to report-in 3 times, will result in the removal of the instructor, unless previous notification is given.<br />
<br />
<br />
=====Cadets=====<br />
<br />
The Cadets are here to learn how we do things. You may do this at your leisure, however, you still need to check in once in a while. You need to send an email to your PI once a week, even if it is just "I'm alive; I've been busy." No communication for two weeks in a row from a BP Cadet will result in marking the Cadet as AWOL and the placement of the Cadet on the "Dispositional" list, where they will have one more week to restore contact before being removed from the Academy entirely and being marked as "Reserve". <br />
<br />
At the completion of your BP (or at the majority of completion), you will be sent a 6 question survey to fill out. This should take about 2 minutes, at most. The only person this will be emailed to and read by is the CO of the Academy and potentially the Fleet Commander. The purpose is to let us know if we were helpful to you and what we can potentially improve.<br />
<br />
===Structure===<br />
The Academy is separated into ''Training Departments'' which are supervised by the Academy Command Staff. The Academy Command Staff is led by the Training Officer/Academy Commanding Officer.<br />
''Training Departments'' will host post-graduate courses for their field of activity. A Training Department is supervised by the Commanding Officer/Command Staff of each respective department. The Training Department instructors will be in charge of leading and evaluating 'students' in the course(s) the instructor will be teaching.<br />
<br />
===Field of Activity===<br />
The basic element in the Academy are courses. The FoA of these courses could be split up into:<br />
<br />
*RS general basic training<br />
*Game specific training - basic/advanced<br />
*RS general advanced training<br />
*RS specific advanced training<br />
<br />
==Courses==<br />
'''Academy courses''' are designed to teach you something new, or let you demonstrate your proficiency if you already know the material. <br><br />
<br />
A list of currently available courses can be found at [[Academy courses]]. <br><br />
<br />
==Training Departments (TDs)==<br />
The name "Training Department" will be used to indicate that we are talking about the wings of the Academy.<br />
<br />
==Beginner's Path (BP)==<br />
The [[Beginner's Path]] serves as first to-do thing in the RS for new members. It gives an idea of the features a RS member can use on RS.org and makes it possible for a new member to earn their 1st promotion quickly.<br /><br />
Once a new member joins the RS s/he will be placed into the New Member's Section, contacted and supervised by one of the Primary Instructors. <br />
<br />
===Primary Instructors===<br />
Primary Instructors will assist new RS members to achieve the 2LT promotion through the BP. Primary Instructors should be dedicated and informed RS members with knowledge of (or willing to learn) what is going on in the various RS units, and the ability to respond to e-mails within 24 hours. Due to the nature of this position, it will be expected that a Primary Instructor marks himself/herself LOA if s/he is going to be offline for more than 48 hours. Futhermore, a Primary Instructor will be expected to have a presence on IRC and/or Xfire as much as RL permits in order to respond to new members questions.<br />
<br />
==Fictional Background==<br />
The Academy is located on the planet of [[Tarsonis]] in the [[Greeop system]]. The location should provide a variety of plot lines/background to introduce new members' characters fictionally into the RS. <br /><br />
<br />
==For Reference: Existing Proposals==<br />
Proposals to be used in the RSA with slight variations:<br />
*[[Academy courses]]<br />
*[[Beginner's Path]]<br />
*[[Primary instructors]]<br />
<br />
==The Historical Academy==<br />
The '''RS Academy''' was a fleet that existed from 1997 to May, 2003. The Academy, not surprisingly, served as the entry point into the RS for many years. All new members entered the Academy as Cadets, were trained in an Undergraduate Wing, and then graduated into the Fleet of their choice as full-fledged members. The Academy was also home to several Graduate instruction wings, which provided more specialized training in such disciplines as custom mission creation.<br />
<br />
Former COs include [[Castor Efrata-Landis]] (founder), [[Jake Blues]], [[Matt "Stallion" Williams]] (who led it twice, and was the last CO, voting to disband it) and [[Eric Reagan]].<br />
<br />

<div>I would like to suggest that for the Master Cadet w/ Honours level that the XvT and XWA requirements have 1 SP mission and 1 MP mission as opposed to simply '2 missionss', as having the requirement of 1 MP mission could help promote more MP activity. Also, I think it should be more clear regarding the submission of screenshots and pilot files, in that pilot files should not be necessary for XvT or XWA since they are not required for standard ITOD submissions.<br />

For your very first mission, you will report the score, whether it is a success or a failure. We don't really care what your score is, we just want to know that you get the idea of how to report. <br />
<br />
This is what I want you to do:<br />
<br />
-Upon completion of your mission, pass or fail, take a screen shot (SS) of the page that has your score on it. Fraps is an excellent SS program, but you have to change the file to a jpg file before you report it, or it wont go through. <br />
<br />
-Also for this game, you are required to send in a Pilot File (ptl). To do this, you will need to go to Computer/Program Files/LucasArts/XWING95. You will see the name of your plt file underneath the folders. So if you named your pilot "Sabaac1" you will see "SABAAC1.PLT".<br />
<br />
-In an email to your instructor, as well as the rest of your squad if you wish you should put what things that you see on your debrief so that we know how you did without opening the picture. (Score, pass/fail, kills, hit%, et al.) Also put your SS and PLT file in this email. And with that, you are done!</div>

---Ray Djo 13:43, 28 January 2011 (EST)<br />
<br />
<br />
===Code Of Conduct===<br />
<br />
=====Instructors=====<br />
<br />
The Instructors are here to help the new Cadets first and foremost, but are also here to assist the CO of the Academy, since the CO can't do everything by himself/herself. They are to be in constant contact with the Cadets under their designated divisions, as well as reporting to the CO to ensure that nobody is being left unattended. Emails should be sent out to Cadets by their primary instructor WEEKLY, preferably on a Sunday or Monday. The CO of the Academy will send out bi-weekly emails to the Academy as s/he sees fit, on Fridays or Saturdays.<br />
<br />
When discussing matters of the Academy, through email or other chat client, both the CO AND the instructors will act professionally and civilly to each other. If the instructors can not, or simply refuse to act accordingly, they will be issued a warning. After 2 warnings, they will be removed from their position on the third offense.<br />
<br />
There will be bi-weekly progress reports by email on the 1st and 16th of every month for everyone who has a Cadet under their supervision, even if it just a message to say that progress is slow moving. Failure to report-in 3 times, will result in the removal of the instructor, unless previous notification is given.<br />
<br />
<br />
=====Cadets=====<br />
<br />
The Cadets are here to learn how we do things. You may do this at your leisure, however, you still need to check in once in a while. You need to send an email to your PI once a week, even if it is just "I'm alive; I've been busy." No communication for two weeks in a row from a BP Cadet will result in marking the Cadet as AWOL and the placement of the Cadet on the "Dispositional" list, where they will have one more week to restore contact before being removed from the Academy entirely and being marked as "Reserve". <br />
<br />
At the completion of your BP (or at the majority of completion), you will be sent a 6 question survey to fill out. This should take about 2 minutes, at most. The only person this will be emailed to and read by is the CO of the Academy. The purpose is to let us know if we were helpful to you and what we can potentially improve.<br />
<br />
===Structure===<br />
The Academy is separated into ''Training Departments'' which are supervised by the Academy Command Staff. The Academy Command Staff is led by the Training Officer/Academy Commanding Officer.<br />
''Training Departments'' will host post-graduate courses for their field of activity. A Training Department is supervised by the Commanding Officer/Command Staff of each respective department. The Training Department instructors will be in charge of leading and evaluating 'students' in the course(s) the instructor will be teaching.<br />
<br />
===Field of Activity===<br />
The basic element in the Academy are courses. The FoA of these courses could be split up into:<br />
<br />
*RS general basic training<br />
*Game specific training - basic/advanced<br />
*RS general advanced training<br />
*RS specific advanced training<br />
<br />
==Courses==<br />
'''Academy courses''' are designed to teach you something new, or let you demonstrate your proficiency if you already know the material. <br><br />
<br />
A list of currently available courses can be found at [[Academy courses]]. <br><br />
<br />
==Training Departments (TDs)==<br />
The name "Training Department" will be used to indicate that we are talking about the wings of the Academy.<br />
<br />
==Beginner's Path (BP)==<br />
The [[Beginner's Path]] serves as first to-do thing in the RS for new members. It gives an idea of the features a RS member can use on RS.org and makes it possible for a new member to earn their 1st promotion quickly.<br /><br />
Once a new member joins the RS s/he will be placed into the New Member's Section, contacted and supervised by one of the Primary Instructors. <br />
<br />
===Primary Instructors===<br />
Primary Instructors will assist new RS members to achieve the 2LT promotion through the BP. Primary Instructors should be dedicated and informed RS members with knowledge of (or willing to learn) what is going on in the various RS units, and the ability to respond to e-mails within 24 hours. Due to the nature of this position, it will be expected that a Primary Instructor marks himself/herself LOA if s/he is going to be offline for more than 48 hours. Futhermore, a Primary Instructor will be expected to have a presence on IRC and/or Xfire as much as RL permits in order to respond to new members questions.<br />
<br />
==Fictional Background==<br />
The Academy is located on the planet of [[Tarsonis]] in the [[Greeop system]]. The location should provide a variety of plot lines/background to introduce new members' characters fictionally into the RS. <br /><br />
<br />
==For Reference: Existing Proposals==<br />
Proposals to be used in the RSA with slight variations:<br />
*[[Academy courses]]<br />
*[[Beginner's Path]]<br />
*[[Primary instructors]]<br />
<br />
==The Historical Academy==<br />
The '''RS Academy''' was a fleet that existed from 1997 to May, 2003. The Academy, not surprisingly, served as the entry point into the RS for many years. All new members entered the Academy as Cadets, were trained in an Undergraduate Wing, and then graduated into the Fleet of their choice as full-fledged members. The Academy was also home to several Graduate instruction wings, which provided more specialized training in such disciplines as custom mission creation.<br />
<br />
Former COs include [[Castor Efrata-Landis]] (founder), [[Jake Blues]], [[Matt "Stallion" Williams]] (who led it twice, and was the last CO, voting to disband it) and [[Eric Reagan]].<br />
<br />

If the instructors can not, or simply refuse to act accordingly, they will be issued a warning. After 2 warnings, they will be removed from their position on the third offense.<br />
<br />
There will be bi-weekly progress reports by email on the 1st and 16th of every month for everyone who has a Cadet under their supervision, even if it just a message to say that progress is slow moving. Failure to report-in 3 times, will result in the removal of the instructor, unless previous notification is given.<br />
<br />
<br />
=====Cadets=====<br />
<br />
The Cadets are here to learn how we do things. You may do this at your leisure, however, you still need to check in once in a while. You need to send an email to your PI once a week, even if it is just "I'm alive; I've been busy." No communication for two weeks in a row from a BP Cadet will result in marking the Cadet as AWOL and the placement of the Cadet on the "Dispositional" list, where they will have one more week to restore contact before being removed from the Academy entirely and being marked as "Reserve". <br />
<br />
At the completion of your BP (or at the majority of completion), you will be sent a 6 question survey to fill out. This should take about 2 minutes, at most. The only person this will be emailed to and read by is the CO of the Academy. The purpose is to let us know if we were helpful to you and what we can potentially improve.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Structure===<br />
The Academy is separated into ''Training Departments'' which are supervised by the Academy Command Staff. The Academy Command Staff is led by the Training Officer/Academy Commanding Officer.<br />
''Training Departments'' will host post-graduate courses for their field of activity. A Training Department is supervised by the Commanding Officer/Command Staff of each respective department. The Training Department instructors will be in charge of leading and evaluating 'students' in the course(s) the instructor will be teaching.<br />
<br />
===Field of Activity===<br />
The basic element in the Academy are courses. The FoA of these courses could be split up into:<br />
<br />
*RS general basic training<br />
*Game specific training - basic/advanced<br />
*RS general advanced training<br />
*RS specific advanced training<br />
<br />
==Courses==<br />
'''Academy courses''' are designed to teach you something new, or let you demonstrate your proficiency if you already know the material. <br><br />
<br />
A list of currently available courses can be found at [[Academy courses]]. <br><br />
<br />
==Training Departments (TDs)==<br />
The name "Training Department" will be used to indicate that we are talking about the wings of the Academy.<br />
<br />
==Beginner's Path (BP)==<br />
The [[Beginner's Path]] serves as first to-do thing in the RS for new members. It gives an idea of the features a RS member can use on RS.org and makes it possible for a new member to earn their 1st promotion quickly.<br /><br />
Once a new member joins the RS s/he will be placed into the New Member's Section, contacted and supervised by one of the Primary Instructors. <br />
<br />
===Primary Instructors===<br />
Primary Instructors will assist new RS members to achieve the 2LT promotion through the BP. Primary Instructors should be dedicated and informed RS members with knowledge of (or willing to learn) what is going on in the various RS units, and the ability to respond to e-mails within 24 hours. Due to the nature of this position, it will be expected that a Primary Instructor marks himself/herself LOA if s/he is going to be offline for more than 48 hours. Futhermore, a Primary Instructor will be expected to have a presence on IRC and/or Xfire as much as RL permits in order to respond to new members questions.<br />
<br />
==Fictional Background==<br />
The Academy is located on the planet of [[Tarsonis]] in the [[Greeop system]]. The location should provide a variety of plot lines/background to introduce new members' characters fictionally into the RS. <br /><br />
<br />
==For Reference: Existing Proposals==<br />
Proposals to be used in the RSA with slight variations:<br />
*[[Academy courses]]<br />
*[[Beginner's Path]]<br />
*[[Primary instructors]]<br />
<br />
==The Historical Academy==<br />
The '''RS Academy''' was a fleet that existed from 1997 to May, 2003. The Academy, not surprisingly, served as the entry point into the RS for many years. All new members entered the Academy as Cadets, were trained in an Undergraduate Wing, and then graduated into the Fleet of their choice as full-fledged members. The Academy was also home to several Graduate instruction wings, which provided more specialized training in such disciplines as custom mission creation.<br />
<br />
Former COs include [[Castor Efrata-Landis]] (founder), [[Jake Blues]], [[Matt "Stallion" Williams]] (who led it twice, and was the last CO, voting to disband it) and [[Eric Reagan]].<br />
<br />

<br><br />
Please email all reports and narratives to your instructor for confirmation.<br><br />
<br><br />
After a student's graduation, the RID CO will be informed about the student's graduation. The RID CO will then assign the graduated student to a position in the RID. This may take a few days.<br/><br />
If the student should be interested in joining a certain RID Task Force, s/he should let the EaW UG Instructor know before gradaution.<br><br />
<br><br />
NOTE: All students who sign up for the Academy are to remain active during their time served. All students who do not report in, in any way, shape, or form, may be placed on an Absent Without Official Leave (AWOL) list.

<br />
== Help: RID ITOD 101 Installation and Instructions ==<br />
<br />
To get into action you have to unzip the [http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/roster/itoddb/files/RID101.zip mission file] and save it to your EaW/GameData/Data/CustomMaps folder. (If you have saved the game into its default directory, you should find the EaW directory in the C:/Program Files/Lucasarts directory) <br><br />
<br><br />
Note: You may have to create a folder in the directory named “CustomMaps†to put the mission file in. <br><br />
<br><br />
'''Remember to have the current patch installed which can be found [http://www.lucasarts.com/support/update/EAW1_5.html Here]'''<br><br />
In game choose single player - skirmish - space - custom maps , pick the RID 101 mission and you are ready to go. <br><br />
<br><br />
Play as Rebels, and put one AI as Empire. <br><br />
<br><br />
Settings: <br><br />
- Set the AI difficulty to easy. <br><br />
- Heroes, starting units and superweapons are all OFF. <br><br />

<br><br />
(A great screen capture utility is Fraps. Screenshots will be taken by fraps into a directory you define. You can get Fraps at this site: http://www.fraps.com/ It is highly recommended. <br><br />
You can also use the 'print screen' button on your keyboard, and Ctrl+v it into the Win painting programe. )<br><br />
<br />
=== Fictional background of the RID 101 mission ===<br />
The RID ITOD 101 mission reflects the "[[Battle of Blerthmore]]" in which Imperial remnant forces attacked the homeworld of the Rebel Squadrons.

Beginner's Path
2011-02-03T01:37:23Z
<p>Ray Djo: /* Communication */</p>
<hr />
<div>==<u>'''What is the Beginner's Path?'''</u>==<br />
<br />
It is a list of tasks for new members to undertake that familiarizes them with the Rebel Squadrons and its website. It is available to anyone of a rank under Captain, which is all Cadets and Lieutenants. Once you have reached Captain, you are not considered a "beginner" anymore, and the path becomes unavailable.<br />
<br />
The Path is divided into five categories: Basics, Communication, Education, Other, and Advanced. There are 30 possible points on the path, and earning points yields rewards in the following manner:<br />
<br />
* 10 points: "Beginner's Path Ribbon" and promotion to Lieutenant Junior Grade<br />
* 20 points: "Beginner's Path Honors Ribbon" and promotion to 2nd Lieutenant<br />
* 30 points: "Beginner's Path Master's Ribbon", for high-achieving members<br />

<br />
'''First Contact (Reply to an email from your Primary Instructor)'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
As an online club, email is one of our most important methods of communication. If we can’t get in touch with you, we can’t help you. De-spam the RS email addresses of the Academy CO and your Primary Instructor, to begin with. You can let us know that you have done this by replying to the initial emails that they will be sending out. After you get into a division, you will need to check the spam box a few times until you are sure that you are getting all the emails that you are supposed to be getting.<br />
<br />
'''Set up an Orientation Chat with your PI'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
Your Primary Instructor is going to be your “buddy†for a while, teaching you how to do things and showing you the ropes.

<br />
'''Edit your RS roster profile.'''<br><br />

<br />
'''Write your character's biography.'''<br><br />
2 points. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
Give your character some fictional background by writing about him/her/it. Having a history and a way to act "in character" will make your Rebel Squadrons experience much more enjoyable. Your biography can be short and simple at this stage, but you may want to expand it later. For tips on a good biography, visit the RgF Academy's biography guide.<br />
<br />
<br />
====<u>'''Communication'''</u>====<br />
<br />

1 point. Admin approval required: RA David Pasiechnyk.<br><br />
Xfire is a gaming instant messenger system and Voobly/GameRanger are game hosting systems. Even if you do not intend to play multiplayer games with other RSers, it is still useful to have as a form of instant messaging with RSers who are not found on IRC. For xfire, add username "rsdavid"; for Voobly, add "_HeavyD"; for GameRanger, add "RS_HeavyD", to your friends list and when he receives the request, he will award this point.<br />

1 point. Admin approval required: VA Joshua Hawkins.<br><br />
Visit the RS Gallery, look at a few members' pictures if you want to, and upload one of your own. It should be a picture of you; if you are uncomfortable with a real-life picture, then you are free to upload a rendering of your RS character. This point will be awarded when an admin approves your submission.<br />
<br />
'''Create an Avatar for your Forum Profile'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
This is a great way to have some fun and show off your personality. WeeMee’s are always fun, but you can do whatever you want (keep it clean!). Email CMDR Tá'Ré Djo with a link to your forum profile when you have added your avatar.<br />
<br />
<br />

To earn these points, your biography must be written with good English, cover several aspects of your character's personality and history, and have approximately 500 words or more. Email your Primary Instructor when you think you are ready to submit your biography, and he will review it and notify you if it is good enough and you have earned the points, or what it still needs in order to be completed.<br />
<br />
'''Participate in one standard gaming activity, as defined by your fleet(s).'''<br><br />
3 points. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />

<br />
'''Post five times on the forums, at least twice with 100 or more words.'''<br><br />
3 points. Admin approval required: VA Joshua Hawkins.<br><br />
To enter more fully into the RS conversations, post five times on our forums, and at least two should be on-topic and of medium length: approximately 100 words or more. When you have completed this, send VA Joshua Hawkins the links to the five posts at which you wish him to take a look. He will award the point upon approval.<br />
<br />
'''Join the RS wiki and make an edit with it.'''<br><br />
2 points. Admin approval required: VA David "Heavy" Pasiechnyk.<br><br />
Find the RS wiki. Create a new account, with whatever username you like, and edit one page of whichever type you like, including your own user page. After you have done this, send RA David Pasiechnyk a link to the page you edited, and he will confirm it.<br />

Beginner's Path
2011-02-03T01:34:37Z
<p>Ray Djo: /* Communication */</p>
<hr />
<div>==<u>'''What is the Beginner's Path?'''</u>==<br />
<br />
It is a list of tasks for new members to undertake that familiarizes them with the Rebel Squadrons and its website. It is available to anyone of a rank under Captain, which is all Cadets and Lieutenants. Once you have reached Captain, you are not considered a "beginner" anymore, and the path becomes unavailable.<br />
<br />
The Path is divided into five categories: Basics, Communication, Education, Other, and Advanced. There are 30 possible points on the path, and earning points yields rewards in the following manner:<br />
<br />
* 10 points: "Beginner's Path Ribbon" and promotion to Lieutenant Junior Grade<br />
* 20 points: "Beginner's Path Honors Ribbon" and promotion to 2nd Lieutenant<br />
* 30 points: "Beginner's Path Master's Ribbon", for high-achieving members<br />
<br />
A description of each of the tasks on the Path follows.<br />
<br />
<br />
====<u>'''Basics'''</u>====<br />
<br />
'''Confirm your email address.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
This is the first step on the Beginner's Path, and it provides you with a RS profile with which you will be able to complete the rest of the Path. After you complete and submit the RS join form, you will receive an email from our site asking you to confirm your email address. Go to the link in the email to activate your RS profile.<br />
<br />
'''First Contact (Reply to an email from your Primary Instructor)'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
As an online club, email is one of our most important methods of communication. If we can’t get in touch with you, we can’t help you. De-spam the RS email addresses of the Academy CO and your Primary Instructor, to begin with. You can let us know that you have done this by replying to the initial emails that they will be sending out. After you get into a division, you will need to check the spam box a few times until you are sure that you are getting all the emails that you are supposed to be getting.<br />
<br />
'''Set up an Orientation Chat with your PI'''<br><br />
1 point. Admin approval required: CMDR Tá'Ré Djo.<br><br />
Your Primary Instructor is going to be your “buddy†for a while, teaching you how to do things and showing you the ropes. Send him an email and get together via IRC, AIM, Yahoo, MSN, Skype, etc. Whichever chat client you both have, and talk to them for a bit. They will help you through the tough stuff!<br />
<br />
'''Edit your RS roster profile.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
Find the profile editor and add some information about yourself and your character. Submit your changes to earn this point.<br />
<br />
'''Send an email using the RS site.'''<br><br />
1 point. Automatically awarded.<br><br />
The RS site allows you to send email to other RS members. Two common ways to access the system are to click on a member's email address in their profile, or by using the "Email" link on the left nav bar.<br />

---Ray Djo 13:43, 28 January 2011 (EST)<br />
<br />
===Structure===<br />
The Academy is separated into ''Training Departments'' which are supervised by the Academy Command Staff. The Academy Command Staff is led by the Training Officer/Academy Commanding Officer.<br />
''Training Departments'' will host post-graduate courses for their field of activity. A Training Department is supervised by the Commanding Officer/Command Staff of each respective department. The Training Department instructors will be in charge of leading and evaluating 'students' in the course(s) the instructor will be teaching.<br />
<br />
===Field of Activity===<br />
The basic element in the Academy are courses. The FoA of these courses could be split up into:<br />
<br />
*RS general basic training<br />
*Game specific training - basic/advanced<br />
*RS general advanced training<br />
*RS specific advanced training<br />
<br />
==Courses==<br />
'''Academy courses''' are designed to teach you something new, or let you demonstrate your proficiency if you already know the material. <br><br />
<br />
A list of currently available courses can be found at [[Academy courses]]. <br><br />
<br />
==Training Departments (TDs)==<br />
The name "Training Department" will be used to indicate that we are talking about the wings of the Academy.<br />
<br />
==Beginner's Path (BP)==<br />
The [[Beginner's Path]] serves as first to-do thing in the RS for new members. It gives an idea of the features a RS member can use on RS.org and makes it possible for a new member to earn their 1st promotion quickly.<br /><br />
Once a new member joins the RS s/he will be placed into the New Member's Section, contacted and supervised by one of the Primary Instructors. <br />
<br />
===Primary Instructors===<br />
Primary Instructors will assist new RS members to achieve the 2LT promotion through the BP. Primary Instructors should be dedicated and informed RS members with knowledge of (or willing to learn) what is going on in the various RS units, and the ability to respond to e-mails within 24 hours. Due to the nature of this position, it will be expected that a Primary Instructor marks himself/herself LOA if s/he is going to be offline for more than 48 hours. Futhermore, a Primary Instructor will be expected to have a presence on IRC and/or Xfire as much as RL permits in order to respond to new members questions.<br />
<br />
==Fictional Background==<br />
The Academy is located on the planet of [[Tarsonis]] in the [[Greeop system]]. The location should provide a variety of plot lines/background to introduce new members' characters fictionally into the RS. <br /><br />
<br />
==For Reference: Existing Proposals==<br />
Proposals to be used in the RSA with slight variations:<br />
*[[Academy courses]]<br />
*[[Beginner's Path]]<br />
*[[Primary instructors]]<br />
<br />
==The Historical Academy==<br />
The '''RS Academy''' was a fleet that existed from 1997 to May, 2003. The Academy, not surprisingly, served as the entry point into the RS for many years. All new members entered the Academy as Cadets, were trained in an Undergraduate Wing, and then graduated into the Fleet of their choice as full-fledged members. The Academy was also home to several Graduate instruction wings, which provided more specialized training in such disciplines as custom mission creation.<br />
<br />
Former COs include [[Castor Efrata-Landis]] (founder), [[Jake Blues]], [[Matt "Stallion" Williams]] (who led it twice, and was the last CO, voting to disband it) and [[Eric Reagan]].<br />
<br />
