I just noticed looking at some screenshots of various things, my in game ships had a massive improvement from retail, but many don't look like the SCP Pimping screenshots.

The one that does exactly is the Hercules.  The Perseus is supposed to look similar but it doesn't.  It looks either higher poly or retextured from retail, and looks tons better, but the pimping version I saw was much better.

For example, my Deimos is improved, but it doesn't look like this: http://fs2source.warpcore.org/wmcscreenies/lm/deimosrocks.png

I got the media VP's from the SCP website.. is there something different now or other ones I need to get?  Any help is appreciated

The Hi-poly Deimos isn't in the mediaVP because at the time that I made 3.6.5, (IIRC)I didn't have a properly-LOD'd version.

Try putting this VP in your FS2 dir:

I don't know what'd be different about the Perseus other than the glowpoint version, which isn't in the media VP's yet.  Can you link us to the "pimping" screenshot you're refering to?

My perseus doesn't look like that.  It looks better than the retail default but that one looks tons better.

That's the latest version of Nico's Perseus with (IIRC) the glowpoint pack and LS's new textures.

Ah I see.
Are those available to the public yet?

And also, is there a directory with the latest versions of models/effects for stuff like that?  If not, can someone post some of the latest publicly available ones?  I got all my vp's off the wiki that came with the 3.6.5 install (plus some of kaja's fixes for the HOTU version errors)

We do need a Stickified thread with a list of all ship upgrades. Or if the wiki worked, it should be updated regularly.

Actually a list of ships that have been upgraded would be quite handy indeed.

[WMCoolmon]

They should all be. LS's shinemaps thread is in this forum, probably a couple pages back. The Perseus and the glowpointed version of it should be available in the modding forum.

I'm waiting until 3.6.6 to release the next mediaVP version, as most of the bugs seem to have been cleared up.

If I can get the Perseus and Deimos to work w/o any errors I may post the alpha version of the 3.6.6 mv_models.vp tonight.

Like this?

If only the first post was kept up-to-date.  I know at least 2 of those models have been changed since that list was made.

A more detailed hint:
LS shinemaps and other cool stuff can be found on Milliwaysmilliways long time no hear btw. is he still around?

glowpoints here

still difficult to find all those files if one doesn't know exactly what to search for...
