Number 75 is up. And boy is she a beauty  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)



That's a link to the Array™ page (with obligatory ™ sign), which has the full-size picture on it, if you hadn't noticed. There's also a few renders from the past few days if you haven't been checking back lately  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

You aren't disputing the superiority of STEAKHOUSE PRODUCTS ("http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/hosted/array/imgarchive.php?image=76"), are you?

Yes, always clean all utensils and surfaces with soap and water after handling fowl.

...I don't suppose the good people at GameSpy would mind running their servers through a carwash now, would you? I mean, now that THE STEAKHOUSE (almost forgot - sorry) has touched the Arrays™, I think they might have some serious cleaning on their hands.

I dunno, maybe one of the forumites will volunteer.  I'm sure GS could use an extra staff ***** helping hand or two around.

But who would volunteer to be a staff ***** helping hand? Maybe we could tell that the bloody stupid monkeyboy Thunder would do it for them. I'm sure he has some talent, and since he hasn't shown that he can do much at all, maybe he can wash stuff.

The Karate Kid? But Thunder, he's too uncoordinated... retarded... stupid... inept...
skillfully challenged... dumb, to be even associated with the legendary Karate Kid.

Not like he'd do anything to us, anyhow. Last time, he changed his title from the Lame™ 'He's gonna yell at us' to the equally Lame™ 'The Metatron'. C'mon, Metatron?

That was rather a pointed comment there.  Shame Setekh, shame.  He's not here to defend himself.

EDIT: Wow, I just selected that bunch of text on the second post, and the  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/lol.gif) smiley was selected along with it. It's funny, it blinks!

You bet your ass it does  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

And I think it's pretty funny, out of all the people who've seen this thread apart from me and Shrike (there's a whole... two of you), neither of you have actually said anything about the render.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)

Yeah, I agree with Venom. With the backlighting like that the Orion looks so dark it almost seems like a derelict.

Post by: Styxx on August 06, 2001, 11:28:00 am
Damn, looks like I lost all the fun!


Anyway, ab00t the first pic: the lighting on the planet seems w33rd. It looks like it's a really big planet very, very far away or like the star is really close, since the lighting is from behind on the Orion (right angle) but it's from the side on the planet (wrong angle). And there's the lack of glowing lights on the surface of the ship (guess you took my "christmas tree" comment about that Arcadia a little too seriously)...

The second pic just reminds me a lot of my first in-nebula render test done on MAX, that I posted on that (now deceased or lost) thread names "bzzt...", when the forums were young. It's just too similar, with an Iceni and Lokis in place of the Sathanas and Maras. Really nice work, though (but still missing the lights on the ship).

I guess I'll stop now before they forget monkeyboy and turn towards me...  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Don't worry DC these guys are just doing this so they can give an example of what not to do on the boards.

Uhhhh, they were probably going to post something like this later, yeah, that's it...
