Re: A celebration of Freespace
I was about to make a screenshot at 3300x2100 with 16x aa and 16x af.  Too bad all my screen cap methods wouldn't fit the whole foreground window in the image - it just captured the 1/4 1650x1024 square visible.

I still can't get the framerate to drop below 60fps, even at an obscene resolution.

^ What he said. Plainly, blowfish's machine is as the computing monoliths produced by the proud PC dwarves of Middle Earth to run at that resolution with those settings.

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force.  Temp is now passive.

Did you try Dilmah's High Noon remake?

Re: A celebration of Freespace
While you're waiting for those even bigger screenshots, here are some that I took while fooling around with the -window and -res [width]x[height] command...

First, some ship lab shots:










Then a few screenies taken from "King's Gambit" (a good mission if you ever need images of beamspam btw...):






Also, as far as capturing screens goes - you should be able to use PrintScrn key, and the resulting image should appear as ../FreeSpace2/screenshots/screenNNNN.tga where N is the enumerator of the screenshots. With big resolutions that folder's gonna be pretty big rather soon though, so regular clean-up and save of worthy shots is recommendable... unless you have a ton of HD space to spare for it to just grow. :p
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

Re: A celebration of Freespace
I had to host these on my server...
Note the 6600x4200 shots, all at 16x aa and 16x af.  I still got 15fps!

Edit: Oh **** lvlshot isnt working... Just click the links.
Edit2: WTF IT RAPED MY URL LINKS!!!

If you have requests, please make them.  It's hard to play, though, at this resolution, because I only see the top left 1/16 of the screen...

You know, looking at those shots up close, it doesn't look like AA is turned on... :doubt:

Re: A celebration of Freespace
It actually is.  However, the normal maps are not antialiasable.

No, I mean, if you look at some of the edges, they are definitely pixely.

Re: A celebration of Freespace
Strange.  I guess the antialiasing bugs up at superhigh resolutions.

 
Re: A celebration of Freespace
FSPort simply rocks.

The Orff taking control over a Vasudan cargo depot.



The Galatea heading into an asteroid field.



Has the Arcadia been HTLed yet? This is where the shield convoy left.



The convoy carrying the shield prototypes, under attack by the Shivans.



A sacrifice from the Hammer of Light.



Capturing the Taranis, not as easy as it seems.





The Galatea, jumping straight into a Hammer of Light ambush.



Capturing a Dragon.





The early Terran-Vasudan Alliance.



A Typhon stationed in Beta Aquilae.



The Bastion ambushed by the Shivans.



The Bastion again.



EDIT: If it seems some of the pictures aren't showing up, try refreshing the page. Just found it out myself.

Re: A celebration of Freespace
I want normal maps... *Cry*
For the Arcadia, someone messed around and made an Arcadia render, the same person that made renders of the Colossus and Sathanas. But unfortunately they're just model renders.
