nope i went to great effort so you couldn't see it on both sides cause then the tunnels will look like a cone and its the same size in real space as hyperspace so little point i wanted it to vanish into another realm - took

of effort tot make it do so without you being able to see the far side

as for the blyelines nope no bug they are part of the ships solar panels array catching the light combines with motion blur

how many polys, looks like it could make it into FSO

Go ahead then, I'd like to see you do it.

And OK KMN

Just making sure. I really do like it. Always been impressed by your work.

little update found the texture to my ship on an old backup cd =)

the red is now done in lightwave so is fully animatable again =)

OMFG!!! that is awesome!!!

Who would sign a petition to get the

smilie back?

Because I would most certainly use it, right now.

Yes.

Mm...

if someone can spare the room aprox 1.1mb i have an aniamtion of teh wormhole - not prefected the opening and closing yet and there is a minor niggle i have to sort out but it shows wellit moving and deforming and also spins around so you see the transition to it not being there (thats where the niggle is)

anyway anyone have 1.1mb of space to spare?

feel bad enough as it is using 3dbuzz site to host images but alas its alli have 9 or dont ahve as is the case) but either way it wont hold anythign this big

i can host it at nodewars for you, send it to [email protected]

Hey, if you can animate the warpmap, could you render an animation in head-on view? I'd love to apply that to the warp.pof file instead of the lame one we currently have.

KillMeNow · **Reply #30 on:** December 21, 2003, 02:59:07 pm

i could but i'm not convinced i could convince it to loop correctly

but if you tell me how many frames and at what res i could give it a try and see if its anywhere even close to being loopable

Taristin · **Reply #31 on:** December 21, 2003, 03:06:57 pm

Well, really, frames is however many it takes for you to loop it, and the resolution isn't really important either, so long as it's 256x256 or larger, right?

Coolness™

KillMeNow · **Reply #32 on:** December 21, 2003, 07:27:38 pm

ok i done some experimenting seems there is no basic loops on this procural that will reapear every so offen - adn the only way to amke it loop means it moves far to fast and destroys the coolness of it unless i were to make it about oh 5000 frames long or there abouts

now if you want i can render out no looped version - might be lucky and not eb to noticable

DragonClaw · **Reply #33 on:** December 21, 2003, 08:03:06 pm

Hmmm, animations normally go at, what, 15 frames per second in FreeSpace2? Multiply the time the wormhole stays open in FreeSpace by the frames per second of the animation, and it should be fine if you render that many...

Not sure how long it stays open though.

Taristin · **Reply #34 on:** December 21, 2003, 08:12:34 pm

Depends on the size of the ship and the speed it moves.

I suppose it _could_ keep running the entire time that the node is open, and not end until after, but it may make things like the Col leaving look funny? I guess it couldn't hurt.

KillMeNow · **Reply #35 on:** December 21, 2003, 08:14:32 pm

thought it varried dependsing on teh ships speed and size? - i doubt i should jstu render enough for all ships to get through without it looking but if the loop occured maybe abit mid way through the normal jump the ship would objucre most of the wormhole and cover the shange

anyway if you want it rendered out for fs jsut ask and i'll run out however many frames you want in sequencally numbers jpegs then rar them up adns end them to who evr wants to turn it into an jump point

Taristin · **Reply #36 on:** December 21, 2003, 08:18:50 pm

Ooh! Wee, Yes. If it's not a bother, try it.

Would about 60 frames be too much? I realize the original is only 24, but with the lack of looping, I figure that at 15 fps, 60 should last 4 seconds, which may be enough to get ships through...

Hmm, maybe 90 would be better? For the extra 2 seconds? Either way, if it's not a bother. And 512x512 should suffice.

This'll rawk (mehopes)

hey, the wormhole mist looks really cool.

i like the pink one...
