Hmmm, are those code changes somehow related to the inteface.

I think I know the reason for the lack of in-game shots in the last time.
At least I got an idea.

I feel your pain there

Bob's Aurora editor can save/load glowpoint data, but chances are good it will corrupt your POF in the process. But I thought you might wanna try it anyway.

tried already and ... failed.

The only way would be to copy/paste glow points chank directly from the original pof with a hex editor.

Already tried that. Unfortunately this model is way to big for aurora, including all subobjcts and lods the model has 12k polies, that's to much for aurora. So, I guess I will simply have to leave it the way it is.  Good thing the error is only minor

When is Wing Commander saga gonna be done. I have been waiting for like two years!

A suitcase with unmarked Euro bank notes being left discretely at my doorstep might speed up the process.

I thought the high value of the euro has already made you rich.

[Moonsword]

More is better.

I want to bath in my money like Scrooge McDuck, but I only have a few suitcases full of it, thats not enough to immerse my body into, and I don't want to change them into coins since they're too heavy to carry around all the time and are likely to crush me with their weight when I swim in them, so I only can hope for more paper money.

Here are just a couple of pictures I made while testing one of the release missions. Enjoy

Some beautyshots of your homebase :





Here comes trouble :

All that's left of them, when you did your job good :

Looking very nice and polished there  glowpoints 4tw

Oh, and the interface art is quite kickass too.

Starman have we changed the HUD to blue? If these are older shots, I prefer it to that green one. It was really hard to tell what was friendly on the radar since the green dots were the same as the green HUD, and it had crossed lines all over it for some reason,  but this one is much more clear.

You can set the HUD to whatever color you like. I have a quite color mix on my HUD to highlight the importend stuff and make the unimportend stuff nearly invisible.

[Edward Bradshaw]

You know what I just checked... and it turns out Iam talking complete nonense.

However I do like the blue. How do I change it to that?

Ed

[gevatter Lars]

In the mainscreen click options, then in the lower right select HUD config and then you should come to a screen where you see the HUD. Click the thing you want to change and then use the sliders on the left side to change the color.

I like to change the color for enemys to red, my own ship green and most of the rest to blue/dark-blue. Targetcross is mostly red or yellow.

[Edward Bradshaw]

Cool. I'll try that. maybe we should add a note to the readme, or else non-FreeSpace users might not know they can change it

[Starman01]

Well, the options are still to discuss shortly before the release. Depends, if we want to pre-create a pilot for the players.

However, while I always like the blue HUD (you can light it up ingame by pressing "L"), there is at least one mission where I still have problems with the radar.

The unclear radar-contacts in Mission 4 are more or less invisible on the blue radar, especially since they are at long range. It would be great if we could go white ones, but that's not possible
(I tried, but it didn't worked out very good )

[Edward Bradshaw]

Yea for a while I thought it was a bug in mission 4, but then I looked more closely at the radar.
