That's right - you guys should be bugging us to finish the game, not to not ever finish it. :p

Yeah... gotta keep some suspense. :p

Those screenies do look mighty promising. A bunch of higher-res models and textures combined with those shaders could look as good as current games.

The "people" working on Red Point was just one guy. Sadly he just doesn't have the time to work on modding at all anymore.

Are we? I don't know. :p

I count four missiles, one hostile, one friendly, one unit of ejected cargo, and a bright green dot (perhaps a space lemon?) in that strangely shaped radar. Whatever that ship is, the cockpit has great visibility, though.

Well, I thought they were already in the Ep 4 release... if they're not, then we can have them in the ship viewer for Ep 5, at least, since that doesn't mess with the actual spawnable ship IDs, right? I don't think anyone will miss them in the actual missions, it's not like we don't have enough...

Rest assured that our Bengal model will make an appearance somewhere else besides just in the ship viewer. :) I'd tell you "every one of our ships will be used outside of the ship viewer", but I'm not 100% sure on that statement right now. At some point we actually had more different ship types...

Wow, this is awesome beyond words. Best birthday news post ever.

I agree with Pete, and that's the thing that gets me about most of your models, too - the texturing. And not really the way they look, but rather a couple of texturing fundamentals. First, there's always some texture map warping (meaning you need to work on the mapping coordinates, this comes...

Hmm, thanks Kris. Gonna run a scan here and ask the rest of the team to do the same.

You could save the lit faces as a separate model and connect them using PART chunks (see my WCM Rapier model for that, I don't remember if it takes anything special), but this wouldn't work for capships (well, it would, but it would do you more harm than good - you'd need a complete model for...

The attached file will hurt your brain, but I can't think of any quicker way to explain how to make a polygon fully lit. If you really want to go insane, try doing that to every model in a mod with over 50 ships (over 100 meshes if you include capships' multiple components), and then throw in...

Extremely awesome render, congratulations! Actually, fire in the Concordia's launch bays was pretty common in WC2. ;)

Sorry about that - I didn't remember the number, so I did a quick CIC search instead of grabbing my copy of ER, and ended up at https://www.wcnews.com/articles/art22.shtml where it is listed as CVE-7.

Here you go: https://www.wcnews.com/articles/art44.shtml This particular image: https://cdn.wcnews.com/newestshots/full/wco06.jpg The ships in that image are only labelled "Misc ship designs" instead of Confed/Border Worlds/Kilrathi like in every other image. They're also radically different...

It's a nice design, but too Present-Day-Airplane-In-Space to be Firekkan, IMHO. Not even the human designs in WC are that McDonnell-Douglas-ish. :p I like the yellow engine intake things, though, definitely suits it better than using the standard human/kilrathi colors we all know. I loved the...

Thanks, but I don't really wear hats - that would be a waste of perfectly fine brain-melting, eye-hurting brazilian sunlight. :p And it was no trouble at all getting the silhouette render done since the model was just lying round anyway.

That cheat works in Prophecy, taking you from 7 ships to 14 ships available for use in the sim. In Standoff's sim, 14 ships are already available from the start, without the need to type in the cheat, so typing it in doesn't do anything.

We can give pilots a chance to eject, even though we don't really know how reliable this (or any other) AI parameters actually are. The problem with things like these is that it's easy for us to lose control over them, game balance-wise. Also, specifically in the case of pilots, it'd be a lot of...
