and given how many beams use thrusterglow01 it does add a lot of cool ness to a lot of beams

Eenteresting. I kinda like the thruster tails, but I'm not sure of the glows... I guess I'd have to see it in game.  If I had a good enough PC to render them with a decent FPS...

Dont those thrusters look crap in the game? It's only my guess, but with a vertical design like that they should be visibly spinning around their z-axis. I like the images though, make them a bit higher resolution, and get rid of the white flickery line (a dot in your case now) problem.

the Lenseflares and trails have some weird sharp colour specks and dots inside, try making them smooth.

I think the lenseflares look weird. The other maps are good, all they need is to make them more opaque so you dont see the ugly thruster model through.

They could prolly use some refining perhaps. Feel free to experiment, Bob :)

I didn't make a #3 thruster glow so keep the old ones, at least for now, they were designed with use of the old #3 glows still being present in mind

Dark Lord Lensflare of Photoshop Hell has returned to FreeSpace! Mwuahahahaha! :devil:

In all seriousness, the original glow effects fit the game much better.

the #3 glows should be getting pushed tward the camera all the time now, and it doesn't look like they are in those screens
