Re: Knight's Rest-Knight Rider 30th Anniversary PC build

What are you going to do with the vox? When I build my rig, I connected it to the audio out. But ever since win 7 it doesn't support output to multiple audio devices so I either get no sound and the vox lights moving or sound through my home theater system and no vox lights.

Re: Special Announcement: Coming Summer 2012...

Firstly, this book is looking amazing! I love the format and the angle. It's mind boggling that you are interviewing individual episode guest stars for each and every episode. I can't even imagine what kind of an undertaking it has been for you guys. I've never been much of a behind the scenes guy b...

Re: Kitt's deactivation

There's no canon explanation. Behind the scenes explanations are equally speculative. It's certainly reasonable that the writing team didn't consult with each other much from episode to episode on technical details. They've certainly shown they can play fast and loose with KITT powers/functions (e.g...

Re: If you can cast Michael Knight, who would it be?

I'd really rather it not be a full reboot. I'd want Hoff as MK with the new guy being his replacement, whatever the relationship might be. I see a couple of critical components to "Michael Knight": 1. Charm - that irrepressible charm with the winks and smile and can pull off tacky pick up ...

Re: Ertl 1:18 KITT new release?

Wow, I bought one of the Ertl KITT's (the 3 white fog lamp version) thinking they'll be around and I can get more later. Now that I'm looking at the ebay prices, I'm kicking myself for not getting a KARR and more when I had the chance. Great modding guys, the working lights and lit dash are amazing....

Re: Supernatural's Chevy Impala to have KITT scanner in next ep.

oh man I was laughing so hard I almost passed out. The theme was great. They even had a working vox... what could be better?

It's true about KR references. I hope that means there's still an active interest in the franchise.

I'll make Robin's Nest my next project. It's kind of a weird estate and I want to get away from using 60x60 lots so that more people will download and use it. I haven't quite decided yet. I guess I can build the main house on a smaller lot and then place a copy on the big lot and add in the guest ho...

Supernatural's Chevy Impala to have KITT scanner in next ep.

I was watching the next episode preview for Supernatural just now and it seems that the next episode will have the KITT scanner in front of the brothers' Impala! I was freaking out. The previews indicate that this boy has the power to turn fantasy objects into reality. I'm guessing turning the Impal...

We were all lead to believe that after Michael lost Stevie,he felt he wanted to continue his work for the Foundation for Law and Government.He continued until about 1990 and retied until knight rider 2000 which took place in 91 but the original series ended in 85-86. yea it's pretty airtight if you...

version 2.0 is done.

geez MTS is such a pain in the butt with all the submission requirements. I understand the need for standards but they border on OCD. It'll take me a lot longer than I initially thought, bear with me. I'll start working on it when I get home later.

Suuure, trouble with exchange :wink: I'll get to that in the next couple of days.

So I set out a while ago to recreate the Arden Villa in my Sims 3 game. Just to be a little random, I decided to put the KITTcave in the garage. I followed the dimensions and general floorplan about as closely as I could but had to make some changes due to some limitations in the game. I moved the g...

Re: What's your favorite random line from any KR?

It's from a few random episodes of TOS, towards the end of the episode when MK says goodbye to the helpee of the week, he'd say "straight ahead" and points then drives off or something similar.

Just a single exchange or line that was your favorite in some way (laugh, cry, cheer, whatever). My favorite, from Knight of the Phoenix: Devon: Trust me. Michael: I'll never trust anyone again.
