The things that need the most work are those particular explosions (the popcorn is okay, but the very red hot explosions.. not the ones that you usually see that blossom out, those are fine, but the ones in that shot that are smaller) and also what happens when a ship gets shot (the white gas) that looks awful atm.

Those aren't really explosions, that's just beam fire frying the hull, looks much better when in motion.
Every pilot's goal is to rise up in the ranks and go beyond their purpose to a place of command on a very big ship. Like the colossus; to baseball bat everyone.

IMHO those beams look pretty bad when they're still, because it's obvious they all look the same, with 5 / 6 distinct bars

The fs2 retail beams are horrible. All the other retail beams are fine though.

Huh ? All the other retail beams, besides the Fs2 ones ?   :wtf:

I don't use animated beams. I prefer the non-animated SCP ones.

Perhaps he means the Lucifer beams from FS1?  :lol:

The beams from the lucifer fs1 non-port were just horrible. After that, you have vanilla fs2 with the vanilla beams, and the shivans ones are just horrible. They have that wavy tearing apart look to them, which just looks ugly. Especially considering that the wavy parts don't move forward, they just stay looking horrible for the whole 7 second shivan beam barrage. It looks even more horrible for the shivan AAA turrets. I mean the terran and vasudan beams look a ton cleaner and even superior to shivan beams. When shivan beams got the tearing apart ripping thingy going on, it's ****ing ugly. What's more menacing is a clean coherent red beam coming from a lucifer. That's why i at least liked the shivan animated beams a lot better, but the high resolution scp beams for terrans and vasudans on the other hand are really great. But, i am a fan of the animated beams more, can't wait till the newer beams come out.

I've got a few. They're not anything close to what's been posted already, but I took them anyway.






Number two is currently being used as a loading screen, number three used to be my desktop, number four is my desktop and is being used as a loading screen.

Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

A fresh one, does anyone knows a better way of uploading images? Imageshack sometimes is way too slow.

What kind of connection do you have? For me it's near instant for up to the maximum size they allow.

I don't think that is Axems latest swirling warp effect as you can see the edges are way too sharp, his newest model has a much smoother bowl on the bottom side of it. Go check the thread.

Also, your planet needs a little lightspeed action, don't you think ?  ;)
