Here are screens from the updated and now finally glow- and specmapped and glowpointed Caernavon class frigate and Sheffield class destroyer.

Call me canon-whore, even the glowpoint sheme is exactly the same as in the WC cutscenes.:p

What do you people thinK?

Caernavon class frigate:




Sheffield class destroyer:

The glow points blend in very well and the ship lights are excellent.
Long time ago, you see, there was this thing called the VBB and... oh, nevermind.

No errors, no random CTDs, just pure fun and proof of why getting hit with missiles is a bad thing.

Thanks for the outstanding models. The glowpoints are very effective. Isn't there a table setting now that would permit the gunbarrels to have a default angle other than 90 degrees?

I realize that Welsh is a tough language, but Mr Nitpicky would like to point out that its spelled 'Caernarfon' not  'Caernavon'... :)

It is one of the most impressive castles in the UK.....
If a man consults whether he is to fight, when he has the power in his own hands, it is certain that his opinion is against fighting.

From what I know they (Origin or whoever has written the handbook for WC) has written Caernavon.
About the gunbarrels...yes here some rumors about that...hope its true.

Caernavon is it how the english spell it I believe.
