I'm angry as a blob turret gunner about these high-poly fighters not having squadron insignia!

Back in my day, insignia were a feature! They were advertised on the back of the box, and by God, we were glad to have them! What would it mean to join the 107th Ravens if you couldn't see the insignia on the wing of your fighter? We APPRECIATED our logos!

But now you got these newfangled 'high poly' models, and there ain't no squadron insignia! Why, even the good ol' Apollo had its first high-poly model with a squad logo, then some upstart whippersnapper went and 'fixed' it, and them logos are gone! Just who do these young'uns think they are?

By golly, if I don't see some squad logos on the Thoth and Apollo soon, I'm gonna have to take off my belt and teach you kids a lesson!

Squad logos are fugly and I dont really care that they're gone

[mjn.mixael]

Oh my...

 

I didn't do it... (I like squad logos!)

*runs*

I also like squadron logos, PCS2 should have a tool for adding them, done better than in PCS1 (in which it wasn't very handy and didn't had a proper preview).

[Snail]

No, seriously guys, squadron logos are horrible and disgusting and should never have been included ever. It's the main reason why FS2 wasn't as good as FS1, because the squadron logos for me completely ruined immersion which was something that FS1 was much better at, IMHO. So really, I dont think they should be included at all anymore, even if there's an option to disable them it means that most people will be using them, so really I think squadron logos should be removed altogether so nobody uses them because thats how I want it and thats the way it should be

[Dragon]

That's only one man opinion.
Toggling them via laucher could be a good idea, but I don't know if it'd be feasible.
Squadron logos are a nice feature, but could use improvements so they won't look like stickers on normalmapped models.

[Solatar]

I'd be cool if we could make them look like they were painted on, instead of a bitmap rendered on top.

If there aren't any logos, i'm NEVER playing multiplayer. . . .
 
Freespace squad logos and pilot pics are what got me started in graphic art.
 
 
I absolutely less than three the **** out of them and expect it (as a retail feature) to be included as part of the SCP upgrade process.

[Woolie Wool]

I don't like them at all and don't care that most high-poly models don't have them. Removing them even frees space on the model for modders to add something more interesting, like faction insignia painted directly on the texture, instead of suspended over the model like a cartoon sticker. Forget whether you're in the 107th Ravens; whether you're GTVA or NTF is far more pertinent information to have on the side of your fighter.

[Colonol Dekker]

In lieu of insignia support. I expect all future models to come with a nameplate style extra texture that us banner fans can scrawl our "abandon all hope-" style messages on.

PCS2 should have a tool for adding them, done better than in PCS1 (in which it wasn't very handy and didn't had a proper preview).

And how exactly could it be done better?

One would hope.

[Aardwolf]

Well, the idea behind nameplate textures...

[Colonol Dekker]

Go on,..........elaborate please

Good luck reading that on a fighter-size vessel.

It's a feature, you can add it or not. Personally I don't like them and I would prefer modders to spend more time on bugfixing and making the model work rather than adding those in.
