Re: A celebration of FreeSpace
Some of the scale on that Concordia seems off...

990 meters, which is less than 10m off the original. To more accurately simulate Wing Commander however, I set up $Length Unit Multiplier: 6.4 in hud.tbl, which means that indicated target distances are 6.4 times the actual distance.

Re: A celebration of FreeSpace
Also, you must have missed Raven2001's "penis fighters", because they got a lot more controversy than this, and they were years and years ago.

I haven't. And it wasn't the only one model for which people said "it looked like a penis." I have to check it, but I remember as if posting similar comments have become bannable offenses since then.

Would you care to tell us what we were SUPPOSED to be seeing?

It was already told.

And on that note, let's get back to posting pictures, yes?

Cockpit screenshots from WCHF...


Me and Woolie are collaborating on his mod, so you'll see some WCHF stuff in there, like the crosshair and fonts.

Re: A celebration of FreeSpace
In the last screenshot, I was very close to an exploding enemy fighter. :) When I paused the game, it looked extraordinary, and I felt I just had to seize the moment.

...Oh, and awesome Cain.  My compliments to C914 and his accomplices.
All that needs to be done next is to slap that WIP upgraded Mentu in there.

You can tell how bad his framerate was, too, by looking at the retail-style "motion blur" on those stars

I don't understand the appeal of seriously overdone bloom. It looks fugly to me.

Re: A celebration of FreeSpace
In normal time and in most games, I hate oversaturated bloom. But for space shooter especially Freespace 2 SCP, I don't know, I have the feeling that is just great. Ok, I overdone the value (I put 180 as a value for the bloom). Since the engine doesn't have a properly lightning/shadows effect, I have to compensate with bloom effect. I didn't try to lower the value yet since this value was for The End Project for testing purpose.

The mission comes from JCDenton (Hellgate mission if I didn't misspell it). I get 15-20 fps on my High-End PC (Core i7 930, GeForce GTX 480, 4 GB DDR3 1600 Mhz, Windows Seven Ultimate 64 bit, Asus P6T).

Well, seems like that mission would be unplayable for the rest of us.
