Freespace Wallpaper?
Does anyone know where i can get FS wallpaper. Most of the ones on FSPort website aren't to my liking. inferno backgrounds would also be welcome.

Re: Freespace Wallpaper?

There were a whole bunch on the descent-manager website but I think they're gone now.

I had one with an Orion and several Great War era spacecraft fighting a Cain(or a Lilith) and some Shivan fighters(there probably were bombers, too)but I don't know where it is. :(

C'mon, FS2 has so many cool ships and it has just 3 wallpapers?

 
Re: Freespace Wallpaper?
My recommendation would be to play some FS2, take some screenshots, tweak the best of the lot in the image editor of your choice, and slap it on your desktop.  Hell, the MediaVP content is at the point where most of the game looks better than the pre-rendered stuff on the FS2 website anyway.  If you're concerned with not being able to line up a good shot, for some reason, the best trick I ever found is to just take a whole lot of screenshots when playing a mission and browse them later.

PyroMX has made some damn fine screenshots in the past (IIRC) PM him for some, or check out the "Celebration of FreeSpace" thread for more!

Also check the old 3.6.8 screenshot thread, there's a lot of good ones there.

Crap, I totally forgot about that, and I have new screenshots!

Don't make it sound so arrogant then. :P

Re: Freespace Wallpaper?
Wow I never noticed that the Colossus WIP was using different textures... Interesting.

That cutscene had so many inconsistencies.
