FekLeyrTarg:
Btw what happened with your recreation of the Pre-WC3/Prophecy-style flightphysics?

Talon 1024:
It had a bad effect on gameplay balance, so I'm not officially supporting it anymore.

Talon 1024:
More screenshots! (and some new videos, too!)

Finally, ship nameplates are working properly! The new shaders for the 3.6.14 mediavps (available in this thread and in the 3.6.12 mediavps patch/update) alleviate the problem where the nameplate would appear as a flat black polygon if "specularity" was applied to it.


KIS Takh'lath being engaged and destroyed by Confederation ships.  Note the weapon piercing effects:


New thruster FX redux! Thanks to Jessnec for handing me his unused thruster effects that he originally made for Syrk: The Unification Wars:


And I've finally added a few things to the hangar of the Wake-class CVE:


Also, here are the videos:

I've been working on a simulator mission to help players learn essential combat tactics.  Many players couldn't get past mission 2 of the WCSaga Prologue, supposedly because they kept getting hit by enemy missiles.  This video mainly shows the FREDed ship selection system that will be used in this mission and other new simulator missions:

This is the most awesome explosion ever in WCHF:

The videos are encoded in OGG Theora, so you may need to use VLC to play it, though some web browsers support playing OGG theora natively.  Also, sorry for the lack of sound, but the software I was using to record these videos doesn't support audio capture.  BTW, these videos work really well in Firefox 4!

Talon 1024:
I tried adding some more windows to the Exeter, but it didn't initially work out as well as I had hoped...

Now that's more like it!

Talon 1024:
I've added a new entry to the developer diaries.  This one's about mission design; making good missions and then making them awesome.

NOTE: I'm still looking for mission designers, writers, and FREDers.  Please apply here if you're interested.
