Make sure you are using a recent 3.6.10 build (the best place to get one is the nightly builds forum), the 3.6.10 beta mediavps, and have -normal turned on in the launcher.

What's the difference between using lvlshot and IMG? I use the latter.

lvlshot squeezes the image so that it fits in the screen. Then, by clicking it, you can open the picture in its original size. The benefit is more obvious with huuge pictures, like 2600x1840 or something.

Or, you can use <img height=[height in pixels]>[image url]</img> or <img width=[width in pixels]>[image url]</img]. Seemingly lvlshot is equal to

<url=[image url]><img width=640>[image url]</img></url>

where "<"="[" and ">"="]", obviously.

Of course, lvlshot tag also takes care of linking to the original image so it's just more convenient than that rather long tag string using the "raw" method... :p

Is that warp out affect in the 3.6.10 mvp's?

Re: A celebration of Freespace

Oh, why doesn't mine look that shiny? Everything should be in order but I can hardly see any difference between the 3.6.8's and 3.6.10's.

Is that warp out affect in the 3.6.10 mvp's?
No. Someone (was it VA or Herra Tohtori himself?) has done it, but it hasn't ended up in the MVP releases. At least not yet...

Those screenies are internal MVP gamma content - most of it didn't exist at the time of the betas. ;)

That's a relief. I thought my puny mobility graphics card had just demonstrated a new way to suck.

Incidentally, I'll boast with the 3.6.7 warp effect. Again. Sorry to cause internal bleeding to all hi-fi people, but it's a .jpg.

Debug builds show that information and I couldn't be arsed to switch to release build just for getting rid of them.

Re: A celebration of Freespace
Is there a way to change the gamma in the game?

Also, what do people think of the up-to-dateness of FreeSpace? It's not fair to compare against multimillion dollar game graphics but to say this is now completely fan-based..... WOW! Beats the crap out of many top of the line games

Yeah... you can either change the in-game brightness on F2, or you can make the game use desktop gamma settings by enabling -no_set_gamma either on custom command line or on Troubleshoot features list.

FS2_Open is cool because it relies mostly on gameplay. Graphics-wise, it's no use pretending that it would be technically on par with current games. It just doesn't use the very very latest of GPU technologies... at the moment. However, it does look rather excellent. It does look easily as good as the later very few products on the same game genre, even if later stuff is technologically more advanced.

Re: A celebration of Freespace
Y'know, after trying and failing to take some nice screenshots, what -is- the screenshot key for FS2 currently?.. something tells me it's F10, but that doesn't work.. and i can't find the "screenshot key" in the config to change or even see the binding.  :confused:
