Nebula Effects - The fun is only starting!
There's hi-res textures for the Orion?

And that shot of the Orion actually doesn't look half-bad to be honest.

I remember after having played FS2 for a while, I went back and tried to play FS1 - I just couldn't get over how bad those FS1 nebulas looked. Now I'm starting to feel that way about the FS2 nebs... I mean, LOOK at them! :ick:

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

To be fair, only the purple nebula is a FS2 nebula.  The one on the bottom right is actually the _top left_ of the image (I was flying upside down) and had a bunch of -stats data cluttering it up.

I deleted it in photoshop and smudged the remaining green nebula a bit.

Nevertheless, the nebula in FS2 NEEDS the Lightspeed Upgrade (tm)

they look ugly and pixelated, somehow.

Yours didnt. So I guess it's not your effects, bob.

Those thruster's look like Turambar's mod of Bob's, you know the one's that leave HW-Style trails at afterburner.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Your all wrong.:p

Their ones I've had for a while, since before I upgraded to the latest fs2_open, from before HT&L.  Can't remember where I got them from though, sorry.

I hope you dont mind LS, but I've put all of your nebulas into one neat little .zip file that can be found here. It includes Lt. Cannonfodder's new planets, and a stars.tbl that incorporates both teh planet as well as the nebs.

Edi: I already have your pack :)

Except of course, it doesn't have all of Lightspeeds nebulae. It's only got Nebulae 3.
