Hmm well... maybe I'm just a bad pilot and wasn't able to protect them.

I guess there is more to it though...

[Jetmech Jr.]

...eww...is that the new shivan beam? It looks...cartoony.

[Gai Daigoji]

Geez...I'd hate to be on the Hesat when that beam hit. Great work as always Inferno team

[Unknown Target]

You guys should really fix the smoothing groups, imho.

[Trivial Psychic]

That's an Apothesis class destroyer having a seriously bad day.

[NGTM-1R]

...that beam is ugly as all hell.

The explosion ain't much better. It's very, very obviously composed entirely of fake-looking squares.

[DaBrain]

Nope it those aren't squares. You can try the EFF and check it.

The beam looks great. It's somehow a bad shot of it. I'll try to take a better shot as soon as I get the time to.

Please give me (detailed) feedback about the hit effect here:

There is also the download for the wip effect. If you want to give some detailed feedback.

All the Vasudan ships are staying in the old fully smoothed format, as it looks far better than the autofacet versions of their ships.

and something a bit different

[MetalDestroyer]

Do we really see that scramble screens during in game ? ^^

[DaBrain]

No, I don't think so.

It's more like Woo jumped on the mystery pic train.

[Woomeister]

Mine aren't mystery pics, more annoying censor pics

It shouldn't be that too hard to figure out.

The regular version is on the internal.

[Getter Robo G]

Heretic, the Inferno beams Owwnn Jooo...

I've been waiting so long for them to release them, I love the lightning beams...

[Woomeister]

The old or new ones?

[Jetmech Jr.]

The new ones desperately need to be reworked. They are WAY WAY too cartoony, even for Freespace. A throwback to Turambars earlier versions would be better, IMO.

[NGTM-1R]

What Jetmech said.

[Jetmech Jr.]

Y'know, speaking of which, wheres that new picture of the beams you promised a while ago, DaB? I wanna see if the Picture really IS just a bad shot of it.

[DaBrain]

I could take a short clip of that.

It looks better in motion.

Well, what are you waiting for? *Whip-crack*



Really, my main problem with the pic is that the beam looks like 2 separate beams with some lighting in the middle. To be really, really specific, it's the "2 separate beams" bit.

I know that we asked it a thousand times but can you update you page website ship database?? I know that you have a much work, but If you could put a 2-3 entries a day then it could be complete in month or two.
