Re: A celebration of Freespace
Nice screenshots, but I prefer bigger beams.
Why?
That Deimos looks a little bit too blocky.
That's why I started that new upgrade.

Re: A celebration of Freespace
I, for one, think that these beams are great.
Spot on.

The SGreen is pissweak, why should it be huge?

Re: A celebration of Freespace
2 SGreens on Aeolus can be a big danger even for bigger ships like Deimos :P. Bigger beams looks more powerfull... But mainly it's a personal preference. Looks simply better for me.

Re: A celebration of Freespace
Actually, the S Green can barely challenge cruisers. It has a DPS of 64, which is less than most fighter weapons...

Re: A celebration of Freespace
The beam itself deals like 2700 damage but it has a firewait of a wooping 45seconds.
With retail a.i. its even more than that

Re: A celebration of Freespace
Sgreen looks spot on.

Terslash still looks tiny, but I'll get used to it.

Why doesn't the light look so cool in my FS2?

Re: A celebration of Freespace
I asked for that, but I got shut down because there'd be too many lights for the engine to realistically handle.

Can't GLSL only handle 8 lights? Or is there something they can do about that epic suckage?

I think that's a per pass limit, and I think we're currently doing single-pass rendering.

Lol. I like how that shot emphasizes the lack of a 4th frontal beam turret. (Beam sizes look good on that cruiser as well)

And as you will notice, it's RED again.

One of the SBeam* files was to blame for the color shift that happened and it was eventually found and corrected with a baseball bat.

<Nuclear>   truth: the good samaritan actually checked for proof of citizenship and health insurance
<Axem>   did anyone catch jesus' birth certificate?
<Nuclear>   and jesus didnt actually give the 5000 their fish...he gave it to the romans and let it trickle down
<Axem>and he was totally pro tax breaks
<Axem>he threw out all those tax collectors at the temple
<Nuclear>   he drove a V8 camel too
