Title: Since you're so avid for updates...
Post by: Styxx on August 30, 2001, 03:26:00 pm
Well, from a few of the latest threads around here I could notice that you all are really avid for some updates so, in order to keep this place free of mindless spamming and fighting, I decided to...

...actually post some updates! Hoorray!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)


Here are some preview pics from one of the cutscenes to be featured on Machina Terra, I guess you all will recognize what's happening on it. Enjoy!

Yep, lotsa Fenrises and Levyathans. You know, they only made so many Aeoluses, and most of them got fragged during the second invasion... Gotta use something as cruisers. And besides, we like'em.

But, there may also be something that you don't know about yet...  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/evil.gif)

Get a fenris and stick a bunch of explosives in it, and ram a Sathanas!

proper naming is leviathan

here's a definition:

le·vi·a·than (l-v-thn)
n.
Something unusually large of its kind, especially a ship.
A very large animal, especially a whale.
A monstrous sea creature mentioned in the Bible.

Hmmm.... unusually large for its kind, especially a ship?? habhahbhahab@it!

True, but you can see the differences from the lightining system... If freespace2 would have that kind of lightining engine that would be awesome....

I think Ice said something about FS1 having a (limited) self-illumination system...
Title: Since you're so avid for updates...
Post by: IceFire on September 28, 2001, 04:35:00 pm
Okay, this how it works.  You know those ND things in the tables?  Those specify which colors are not to be faded out by the sun.  They are to remain at the same intensity as they are on the model.

Unfortunately, this was only ever available in FS1 Software and both FS1 and FS2 Glide mode.  D3D does not support it.

If the source code was released, this is definately one of those things to do.

I think I've finished it.. too long ago that I don't remember what it was about.
Something about a mining operation wasn't it?
And supposed to be hella hard to beat
