Actually, I like this one the best. I think the code chunk should go down the entire left side of the image though.

It isn't yet AFAIK, don't have a heart attack.


While that one does look nice, it doesn't quite show off what the engine can do now.  Sure it shows that we can have nice 32-bit backgrounds, but I'm sure people want to see that the models have been upgraded too.

[jdjtcagle]

No it isn't out yet,:D
WMCoolmon was going to let me take over the VP's, but then I got grounded and then things got screwed up. Although, haven't seen him in a long time or heard from him

[Inquisitor]

I like that one by JD too, but don;t put the version number in the graphic, we do that with code

[jdjtcagle]

Ok, when i get home I'll take it out.

[kasperl]

but please do put a mediavp version number on it...

[ChronoReverse]

You guys do know that that SCP logo and the background images are separate files right?

The logo is placed on top of the background image.  So if you want to add a vp version number, change the logo pcx and leave the poor background image in peace.

I don't like JD's version that much. Whereas it might look good on extremely low brightness; it has ugly cutting edges around the sun on normal brightness settings, and the upper end of the star is cut off completely.

I also think it's lacking kind of the reference to what you'll see in-game.

I agree with lightspeed, here. that doesn't look very good at all.

[jdjtcagle]

Hey no hard feelings, cause I even think they suck.
Just thought I give something.

I like the idea of using the env. build for the spash screen, for eye-candy purposes, but if we advertize that the spash screen image as indicative of what things will be like in-game... for 3.6 let's say, but don't have that feature enabled, it could dammage our credibility.  Just my take I guess.

Oh well... Later!

[ChronoReverse]

That's why my image is using a build without env-maps.  Anything that we are going to use should also use features only found in 3.6 as well as showing off what the engine can do.

A Lucifer and Demon fleet would look awesome.

[ChronoReverse]

If anyone is going to make a fleet, please place the ships in dynamic looking positions, NOT parallel to each other in a row.  


Parallel is OK as long as the formation is simply a line.  But even so, it's better if you get a view from an angle, that is, not directly from the side.

[Kazan]

hmm... personally i don't like JDJs - i wanna see _ALL_ the mediavp 3.6 eyecandy combined

[jdjtcagle]

You could put this with the SCP thingy on there.

[Singh]

dynamic fleets? No problem.
*goes off to get a nice shot

[Starks]

God speed Singh.

[Flipside]

Ships facing different ways you say?

I got bored



hehehe
