Do not be discouraged, for we are still very active:



Just as a status update, we are currently upgrading vanilla Shivan ships both for Inferno and for FSU, so you can keep tabs w/ our progress on the FSU forum.

Well the normal map looks fine, I think it's just the shinemap that could use a bit of toning down, since it looks really bright with a white sun. We'll get it it eventually :)

I've gotten the gist of doing normal maps, and they come out fine right now, but I cannot for the life of me do proper shine maps.  It's probably really easy too, but I have other stuff to worry about right now.

Take Diffuse Map. Copy to a new file. Increase Saturation and/or Contrast, lower brightness.

Paste another copy of the Diffuse Map into the Alpha Channel. Decrease Brightness (with necessary Contrast adjustments) until the areas you want to have have a high(er) reflectivity (This in Photoshop for me usually means about -150 Brightness and -50 Contrast). Should give some somewhat usable results or a good place to start.

What happened? The Vindy in that screenshot looks... less than stellar.

Perhaps it's the angle, or he lighting or whatever, but it looks low detail for some reason

I bet those beams combined are only as powerful as the normal beam the Vindy currently wields.

But still, a full 6 strong wing of those opening up on an allied warship...

Trust us when we say this: When a wing* of Vindhyachals jump in, you'll want to kill them as fast as possible when defending a destroyer.
