Tried again this morning, this time making sure everything is fresh, and it worked fine. although i was able to zoom out about 5.00 giving me a all so non-memorable effect that reminded me of being zooted off of a so-common narcotic in NY lol.... i noticed when i did the .45 zoom, it looked good, everything was closer up, and it gave it a better depth feel. but then everything is obviously too big, and looks the same, when i did the opposite, by zooming out to about 1.0, 1.45, it of course was uber-far back, but the FOV gave the arcadia a true distance look, but the surounding areas of the background looked like it was fazing left and right if i turned in those directions. OH and i didnt have the same error that whats his namehad when he zoomed in or out too fast, it just got there quick, but the number notation took a few seconds to match the true zoom.
LASTLY: IT DIDNT CRASH THIS TIME. I think it was because there wasnt
of ships on the screen at once this time.

---------------for bob/end----------------
what does this all mean?
also... im posting pics to see what i saw.
Some that look as if they were zoomed in, are between .50 and -3.0;
the ones that look like your o bosche beer with a dose of coke, the far out zoomed looking ones, are between .45 all the way to 5.50.
-----------------------------------
.45
+1.0
+3.5
+1.65
+5.65
+5.0
-------------END PHOTOS-------------------
THis also was compiled with i think the fs2_open_z.exe compile:
Freespace Multi Log - Closing on Wed, Aug 06, 2003 at 11:05AM
WARNING: VRAM is at -14846976 instead of zero after flushing!
(i erased most of it cause it was lagging the IE.)

now goes back to corner to sober up....
