The SCP Title Screen
Last post for today :p


I've been looking at the 3.5.6c title page for the SCP and I keep thinking that it just doesn't show off the new stuff the SCP has added in.


We really should have a little collection of screenshots that show off what 3.6 will be able to do.  Something that'll impress.  Something like this:





At least I think this is a pretty nice shot of the Bastion.

I've made a pcx version of this and replaced my title screen already and I think it looks great :lol:


But I'm sure that there's tons of even better looking screenshots that are just waiting to be shown.

That's a very nice shot :nod: If it only had Lightspeeds new nebulas...

New nebulas and a few weapon effects would be good - something really snazzy ;)

How about that shot, with a couple fighters zipping past, showing off the new laser and glow effects? :)

I dunno. My SCP title screen never even appears. :p
- Eddie Kent Woo, Setekh, Steak (of Steaks), AWACS. Seriously, just pick one.
HARD LIGHT PRODUCTIONS, now V3.0. Bringing Modders Together since January 2001.
THE HARD LIGHT ARRAY. Always makes you say wow.

 
It's a bit out of date now due to model updates, but Woo and I have this as our title screen - only problem is it can only be 256 colour ATM. Can you SCP guys maybe up this to 16/32 bit sometime?

Ok, fixed:)
Oh, and to clear things up: I did not make these, actually, IIRC Artemis made the Sathanas and the sun.
All I did was bring back some of he older ones proposed and put them together

Can you use an AVI file instead, BTW?

Not as far as I know but if you place an file called intro in your main FS2 folder it will get played (either before or after the spash screen depending on the version)

No, It has to be a PCX

AFAIK, you can convert anything down to PCX level:nod:

The Ravana gets my vote - Shivans look cooler. But you forgot to turn to HUD off when you took them.

I could edit that out in a second :nod:

but let's see what everyone else comes up with first :)

some screenies from my side. It includes the mission for this with all the new background sets for use. For optimal effect, use the Env build :D

Clicky!

While it does show off the engine, that's something I'm hoping they'll avoid with this release: static images that aren't as dynamic with ships parallel to each other.

The third screenshot is probably the best in that set since it's the most dynamic of the three.

I like the one of the Hecate better than the Ravanna one since the lighting in that one simply looks better.  Replace the Ravanna with a Demon destroyer instead and put it in a really low light level and methinks it'll look really spooky.
