In swarms?!  what use is it when your on in you own in a nebula with 5 wings of Shivans on yer arse, then?

Valkyrie was & is much better, anyway.  Or the Herc, if you want firepower over speed.

Heh I just got back online after sleeping and having some classes now I'll edit it so you can delete it. Thanx an0n! :yes:

Oh! I just remembered! They are the Ulysses models, but they're supposed to be Banshees. I would have put them in but the Banshee isn't finished yet :(

Wash: This landing's gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: *shrug* "Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die"?
Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

The lighting is good considering that you have two local stars providing glare and frontal darkening from within the FOV. What is not good, though, are the huge edges on your ships, and the clunky text, which is not necessary - and could be done up to further the 'fear' effect even more. But you can do that... later. ;)

Oh, and, ahem, hosting?

I forgot that *some* people have their monitor at 200% brightness :p To me, it looked like a big black...thing. Not an Orion.
My biggest suggestion is to move that star or do something with the Ulysses, because I just realized it's not an amateur attempt at an engine glow. :doubt:

My monitor is set at 50% brightness, 50% contrast and it is perfectly visible to me. High clarity monitors are better, silly... :p

Mine too, I have "weak" eyes.
But you know, you have to overcome your fear of the dark, and... huh, never mind :nervous:

I think it looks great save for the sun :yes:

Yeah, what is dodgy is when you're on a school computer and you can barely see what's going on. I have a sw33t monitor back home... Mmmm, Flatron. :D

Ouch. :D

My monitor's 2 years old... I think the oldest one in the house was bought in '88 or '89... when I was about 3 years old. ;)

That nebula looks simply great; definitely conveys a nice and dark mood. ;)

I basically have three monitors in my house:
13-inch 640x480x8 - 1990 :D
19-inch 1600x1200x32 - 1998
21-inch 1920x1440x32 - 2001 (this is the one I normally use)

I have noticed the same problem with all the monitors and graphics cards I have tried; most games are completely unplayable due to the fact that things are too dark to see anything. I can alter the brightness/contrast levels, but that makes things look sort of "washed out" and worse in general. My brother doesn't have any problem though, so I guess it's just my eyes. :p (my vision is terrible in terms of nearsightedness, but I guess I have trouble with brightness too :D)

I envy you. ;) I have the 14in from '88; a 15in from '93, a 17in from '97 and my current 17in flat from 2000. But you have a 21-?! Uhhh, where do you live again? Do you lock your doors? ;)

Some 15' thing, from 1999. Got it with the PC, which I upgraded a few times, but didn't really care about the monitor, because of the $$$.
