Well it still depends on the monitor settings for things like brightness and contrast, so you'll have to experiment to see what looks best for you system, like I said I have to use different settings on each of my PCs. If it looks too dark, make the number larger, too bright, make it smaller until you get the look you want.

I have a great monitor that is a LCD flat screen 2ms refresh rate and 1280x1024 resolution. Also, can you direct me to a thread that gives me a list of custom flags and gives me a description of each?

If I agreed with you, we would both be wrong

Since I'm not sure if slick is going to complete his version:

Currently 2300 polygons.

Should you contact SLICK first? He could return back in a few days with another HTL Zagreus!

The Zagreus is definitely better now...but you should add more features. Many parts of the warship's hull are plate and don't look good in a HTL model, though they worked fine with the old version.

He hasn't been here since last month so I can't PM him if he isn't around.

2 ms is the response time, it is not the same as refresh rate. Even though there is 1000 milliseconds in one full second, you won't get 500 FPS from your monitor.

Response time only indicates how fas a pixel can change it's colour from brightness to zero brightness. Lower response time is better because otherwise you get lag on the screen when dark part of image moves over brighter background, or vice versa. Actual refresh rate (frames per second) is announced in vertical frequency or simply in FPS (for example 60, 75 or 80 Hz or FPS). Most common LCD vertical frequency used today is 60, but HC gaming LCD/TFT displays sometimes have higher refresh rates.

2 ms response time is seriously good for an LCD display, though, so probably your screen can also reach higher FPS than for example mine... My display has response time of 8 ms (which is not too bad either) and can do 75 FPS on analog RGB signal (VGA cable), or 60 Hz with DVI-D cable.
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

He might have had problems in his real life, something like:

"My gf is pregnant!" <---common, ask DySkO ;)
"I'm dead!" <---ask St. Peter
"University etc. etc." <----common, ask several Admins
"I'm pregnant!" <---ask Schwarzenegger

That's why we should add our e-mail,MSN,AIM ecc. ecc. addresses in our profile informations!

I have a Dell monitor using a DVI cable and INFA runs quite fast. I do have 2x 768mb Nvidia Geofroce 8800GTX cards running it though :D

Mines a new system, only problem with it is the drivers for Vista are currently crap and most OGL applications have issues.

If you have an 8800GTX I'd say yes, the game BSODs a lot as do most OGL programs. D3D stuff runs fine most of the time, but FS Open D3D doesn't have spec and some other features. This is due to poor drivers and not Vista itself though.

I have no slowdown or graphical issues under Vista though, but I wouldn't expect my system to have slowdown as it's quite a beast.

I still have my laptop so I can use that for FSOpen development. Then I don't have to worry about modelview instantly BSODing my system when it loads. FRED seemed to be happy running on it though, but I didn't leave it open for too long...

There's a good shot of the Meggy firing off her new updated beams (based on Bobbau's beams).

Just informing the general public. ;)
