Both very cool looking, but with canon you can. :D

So basically a 64 MB X300 will have no chance with the super-hi-res version?  Crap; if it's included in adveffects, looks like I'll have to do a little editing. :p

Blue. It looks cooler, and it's closer to canon anyway.

I'm not going to do multiple shockwaves at this time. It'd be nice to show off the feature, but there's too much risk of it interfering with other mods and such by taking up a bunch of image slots.

Not to mention the races are already color-coded enough as it is. If I want to see a firework display I'll go to Disneyland, not Freespace.

And I vote for the blue. I've played the game with both the fire and blue colors and I like the blue better because it contrasts nicely with the explosions, and I always imagined the shockwaves to be energy  released from the fusion drives, anyway.

And which versions are you going to be using for which VP's? The low end for mv_effects and the high for adveffects? The mid-range for effects and the super-high for adveffects?

Red. It looks better, it makes more sense, and that damn blue is too bloody garish.

Either one's okay to me. But as I can't get it to work, I'll wait for a VP because I'm probably installing them wrong...

Yes, this one also makes sense gameplay-wize because the blue ones will be doing 1% damage to sheilds, while the red you have to watch out for...

I don't know how many times this needs to be said.  You can't have multiple shockwaves without incurring massive penalties on the number of graphics used in a given mission, introducing a degredation in performance and potentially causing things to not render properly.  The 3d shockwaves are slightly less bad than the long 2d ones, but only marginally so.

Funny hearing that from basically any non-n00b around here. ;) :p

Both waves are cool, so let's compromise and make them... PURPLE! :nervous:

How about implement an SCP feature to allow players to set individual RGB settings through the Launcher for specific DDS and PCX files so that we can override whatever color it is ourselves and stop fighting? ;)

(Materials system anyone?!)

I wish. :P *sigh* *clicks Blue*
