FreeSpace Discussion / Screencap Contest: December 2025

« Last post by NeonShivan on December 02, 2025, 05:17:28 pm »

Alright ladies and gentlemen, we have reached the end game. In event of a tie then both will receive the winner of the year awards. But honestly, you're all winners to me. This month's theme is war. Show me a battle, a warzone. Something exciting to get the blood rushing. A bit of an oxymoron for the month of December imo, but the other themes that came to mind feel too boring or hard. Go forth Hard-Light, and provide me with the content that the people deserve.

Rules:

1: No HUD! (Jump nodes are ok though!)
2: Images must be presented as they would be as seen with only the FSO engine rendering the image. Remember that these entries help to show off what the engine can do for new players! So that means no after the fact photoshopping (except for cropping), and no external shader programs (reshade and the like). No lens flares, contrast shifts, colorizers, etc.
3: Max 3 entries per person!
4: Again, these screenshots are a way to promote Freespace and the FSO Engine - let's keep it in good taste.

Winners:

+ Rennie Ash +: 1
shiv: 2
Colt: 1
Goober5000: 1

Good luck!

I would like to announce that Goober is the winner of this month's contest for most creative. If you understand the reference behind the photo, you'll know why I had to choose him as the winner. That said, everyone's submissions were of the absolute highest quality and all deserve awards.

Derek Smart...

Have not heard that name since the very early days at HLP.

Anyone remember the full story? I think it's worth explaining for the newer folks.
