It was a try at a new way to make backgrounds, it was nice but plain, so I decided to put ships over it. And I put ships, and I added ships, and I selcted all the ships and copied them again and again, and boum, 3 000 000 polys, about... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

hem no. the plasma bolt from the kraken has an effective radius of about 1.5/2 km... the gaia on it's own, in the middle of the fleet, is already 3km long (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I can´t believe that nobody asked this question before: how long did it take your comp to render this?

He gets grand prize for making the render with most ships in this community so far (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Well, not really. I mean, you've seen how nicely the Flux engine handles stuff, and it's definitely better fitted than FS2 for a fleet scene. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I remember that from what they said about the kilrathi fleet destoyed by the kraken. I doubt it could be much more powerfull. anyway, the fleet you see here is some 70 km wide... the kraken anyway would be sent to hell way before it has the time to have a glimpse at the fleet (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif) (how easy it was to destroy this thing in WCP. WCP capships are sitting ducks)
