F*ck them, when will we have some more realistic flight engines? :D


I say F*ck it and make it realistic.  :mad2:

I personally don't have an issue with the red flash, if anything I'd also like a white flash for shield impacts.

The option to turn off impact flashes, as well as have a HUD flicker when hit would also be nice. (the HUD flicker is more extreme when your hull is lower)

Not quite. Ever played Sushi's velocity mod? If you haven't, you're ought to, best mod ever, made me replay FS1 all through just for the fun of having things actually go fast. And the AI misses a lot ( and so do you ) when speed increases.

There's a difference between increasing the time compression and simply upping all the veolocity values...

yeah:
1) is dumb, 2) is cool ( and was more than just upping all velocity values, btw )

Sushie's velocity mod remains my all time favourite mod :p ( I mean it )

all he did was up all the speed values, not the rotational values not sure about acceleration

Maybe if you simply doubled the speed of Fighter Class ships, but also made all turrets do double damage they would cancel each other out, harder to hit, hits harder? I'm not sure how turret rotation would fare, but I would have thought just doubling or tripling fighter speed wouldn't effect it too badly. Possibly you could set a fighter speed/turret damage multiplier at Launch or the like?

Just a thought :)

Or you could just put a 0 after everything on the screen so you think you are going faster...

Now I am getting somewhere!

I managed to download the source.

And now I am seeing if I can build it.
*looks at progress*
Ah shoot! I need the SAPI! Now I need to find that, install it and then run the compiler again...

Oh well, now I will get simulated speech.

I just wonder if I got all the files, Goober said that it was 200MB, I got 16MB...

you probably missed the SCP vp file, it is in a thread between the sticky's, or perhaps in the FAQ forum, not sure.

http://dynamic4.gamespy.com/~freespace/fsdoc/

go  here, scroll down to the SCP section, and look if you can find something helpfull.

I have the Media VP.
I just need to download the SAPI from microsoft.
At least, so far as I have build it.

I do hope that it works. The newest build doesn't work for me...

i am not a coder, i only used QB a few times to make some stuff,

but if it compiles alright, but it just won't run, there are more then enough reasons. if it won't compile, it might be due to you having a DX beta/debug version, IIRC, AFAIK.

I just miss the Speech API, that's all.

I have DirectX 9.0 SDK.

And the reason the latest build (from 5 December) didn't worked is because of the Hardware things. I have a TNT 2. At least I think.

But I think I will wait with the actual coding for the effect after Christmas, I am currently (heavily) making a new mod for BC. End Game's Ablative Armour Generator. Which I plan to release on Christmas day.

Me too!  I have a TNT2

My brother has a GForce 4 and SCP looks great on his computer...  And my GF has a FX5600 that makes SCP amazing.

I want to upgrade.
