cool.


Sad thing is, FS2_open already does the glowmapping and the glowpoints. Give SCP a few more months, and it will look better than those :D

yeah, well, modifying a code is easier than making a new one I guess?

That's true, and FL is a very different beast to what we're working with... and yet - whenever there's No Money vs. Money and No Money wins, it's always kinda funny. ;)

Dunno, but those screens seem a bit weird. Gotta wait to see them in motion.

those are for menus, you don't have control there. It's part of the aventure sequence.
To be honest, I don't know what to think of that game anymore, it might be great, or complete crap, so I'm really looking forward to the demo to actually be able to judge it.

Thank God for demos. :) Now if I can just get Hegemonia's demo to download properly... :sigh:

I doubt it'll be as good as Haegemonia. Which means it'll most likely suck.

Looks ok, but that visual style is a bit iffy.  Nah, not gonna buy it.
