Hey Antix, I don't mind ya doin' that with my pic, just next time it would be wiser to ask permission first. :D At least now we know just how ugly green flames are for fighters. :D

Zor Prime, consider me pleading! :D Please please please please please please please... ? :)

URGENT! I need a screenshot of the inside of an Excalibur's cockpit (complete with joystick, throttle, VDUs and all) from WC3. I must have an in-game screenshot as they would be of the highest quality, or unless you can provide a better one. I need this shot ASAP! This is for my animated...

Not without doing another render, and that would take a while--not to mention since the effect has been perfected I don't need to revisit that file for a while. Perhaps later, or after I do some exhaust tests on my Excalibur model... :D

Yes, I'm currently making an Excalibur (in WC4 a purple paintjob). :D It's almost complete. But that's for another thread entirely... :D

Hey thanks for the nice replies guys. I made the mesh myself Wedge. Like I said at the start of this discussion, I needed to know the colour of engine flames because I'm making an animated short set in the WC universe. There's going to be a script and everything, but that'll come later...

Does THIS look good for blue flame? :D

Wedge, they're not just planning to, they already have and are doing that. A NASA probe which was sent to a comet on the outer rim of our solar system who's name I forgot had the probe sent by an ion engine (developed first by the Russians) which slowly over time accelerate the probe to...

I would think ion engines spew ion exhaust. But that's just what I think. :D

Does it show in the WC1 blueprints that they even have bussard collectors!? :D

Hey wait a damn minute, that's wrong! I know at least WC1 fighters didn't have M/AM engines! Check their blueprints!!! :D Does anybody have a link to them?

What I am referring to now folks is the fact that WCP fighters also have blue bussard intakes. Does this mean they all jump, or just the fact that all of them have M/AM engines? They may not have infinite afterburners but they have infinite fuel for cruise mode flying--doesn't that also mean...

In the WC4 novel segment I got with my manual, it stated how post-war Confed was keen on saving gas. M/AM reactor engines would be expensive, but in the long run they'd be incredibly fuel efficient since they use little fuel at all. That's why you could fly around indefinetly (though no...

That's my guess. Since before WC4's Dragon fighter, the fighters in WC never had any bright glowy intakes so I'm assuming in WCP it's the same as WC4's Dragon fighter (which DID have a M/AM engine) which signify's the presence of a M/AM engine.

Wait, okay here's this: Even though the engines burn blue-white in most of the games, does the type of engine affect the exhaust? From WC1-4 they were using what? Ion engines that burned a stored fuel source? From WC4-WCP they were using M/AM (matter/anti-matter) engines right? That explains...

Wow thanks for the replies guys. This will be very helpful. I remember in chemistry a few years back our teacher showed us different flame colours depending on the elements he burnt... I forgot which elements but some burned blue, orange, and even green! Anyway, I think the overwhelming...

Why thank you! :) I'll take that into consideration... Meheheheh...

Casper Van Dien was one of the Confed pilots who greeted Maniac and Maverick when they landed on the TCS Lexington. I believe he was the one who offered to take Blair's duffel bag for him.

Hey folks. I'm new here. :D I'm making a WC animated short and I'd like to know which colour is more popular for WC. Blue-white engine flames, or orange-white engine flames? In WC3, engine flames were blue-white, but in WC4 they were orangey-white, and in Prophecy they're not even...
