Underutilized Privateer 2 Palette Swap Feature Visualized Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Privateer 2's spaceflight has an interesting design where each ship model has just one set of textures... but they are designed to change their appearance based on which of ten or so palettes are selected.

The odd thing is that it's barely used! Each faction has a distinct livery that it uses this to display... but the game itself never actually changes them so you end up only ever seeing each ship with just one look. I'm not sure why it works this way at all, but it sure is cool to go back and see familiar ships in other colors!
