Title: FSPort 3.2 Teaser
Post by: Galemp on November 10, 2009, 10:06:27 pm
The next long term project for FSPort... re-rendering the Command Briefing animations for the high-resolution interface art.

Behold the glory of what will be cb_hol.ani.

I was almost thinking you'd created a new, sexy Seth for the Port. Even though that's not the case, that's still incredible!

Nice! Any specific reason the 660x300 resolution was chosen?

That's the approximate size of the briefing window in the high-resolution interface art. The exact dimensions were the ones chosen by Earth Defense for their CB Anis, so I'm maintaining that.

The sheer attention to detail and the amount of care that goes into upholding FS canon is what I really admire in the FSPort.

You guys are awesome beyond measure.

These are really amazing to behold. Are the evil red Seths going to be in-game too?

And since we're on interface elements, will the remaining FS2 briefing icons be replaced? I'd like to see the Perseus briefing icons replaced with Apollos, Mentus with Atens, etc. As it is they kind of stick out against the FS1-ified interface.

Seths, probably not. But Atens will be (and already are if you have mediaVPs installed.)

Yep, those are getting done too. Slowly, but surely. Bug Cobra if you want them done faster.

Those are actually pretty much done, I literally have like five icon sets left to finish, but lately I haven't spent much time on the computer, so I haven't done much in that department. Hoping to fix that tomorrow night when I get off work.

I'm glad you like my work thus far. Though, I must say that Galemp and Goober are picky individuals. (I mean that in a good way!  :P ) Already they have helped me improve my work process to make great looking shots. They have an eye for quality. I only hope I can live up to it.

That is one Galemp assigned me and I'm excited to work on it! One at a time though.
