If you look at the Command Briefing animations from the last few missions of FS2, you'll see one which shows the Sathanas fleet in a ring around the Capellean star, NOT a sphere.  That's why he's showing it as a ring.

Excactly but I'm thinking about redoing them to stretch around farther so it will look better on the perspective.
Plus, on the last mission I'll make them alot closer and smaller.  But, In order to do that you'll have to download my missions in the other thread.

Sounds good, although to compensate for some of the scale issues already discussed, I'd advise that you either reduce the size of the ships, or increase the span of the ring.  I'd say triple the ring span, and reduce the size of the sun by the same factor (1/3).  After looking at that CB ani, such changes would probably match up well... assuming that ani was supposed to be anywhere close to being to scale.

Later!

Good, but only for a start.  Render it, fix the size/distance problem...
For great justice.

You'll probally here from me later today:)
But since I'm going to fix the size problem, it's going to be included in my Missions VP in the other thread
