@Lestrade:
In practise, one can almost always take the risk: does not make it smart advise. Anyway - respecting the authors wishes is just good manners.

OK - looks like I didn't upload the latest before things went bad this end.

No worries, anyone questions your actions, cite this thread.

iirc: Wolfies was a bit rushed. Let me know if there is a comment at the top of the plist files - that's where I tended to to them when it's a work in progress. The license needs to be compatible with the original wolfies. That author has given me permission to make a neolite version of his oxp - so...

It's heartening to find the neolite oxps are still so popular. I anticipate being overshadowed by Griffs efforts and my own interest has shifted towards supporting them. can someone put them up on a temp link so i can download them? I have had a change in personal circumstance recently which means I...

Hah - didn't know starsoarer was in the wiki ... I'm on to my host service, but now I think about it, I have not heard from them in a while. I see I still own the domain name so we'll see. Probably just a glitch.

All fair comments - as Griff points out, the fdl is both boxy and pointy, it also has lots of false perspective (eg. the overhead view looks like it slopes away from the middle when it is flat L-R but slopes from stern to bow.) More complicated panel layout for normalmapping is indicated, I agree. N...

Griff's ship remakes are very cool but da big G is only like this one guy y'know?! I figured I'd have a go at griffifying other ships to compliment the main set. I figure the ships to start with are the ones in Random Hits ... even though these ships are scattered through other OXPs. Since I'm alre...

been mucking about with some dry cracked earth textures and the parallax shader, .... although once again i've UV unwrapped these really badly - some clearly visible and horrible seams in the texture which the parallax makes even worse ! Its not the problem that you wrapped it wrong. The problem is...

@Simon.. Glad to see you about, and that's a very scrummy return. Any thoughts about helping update other willing OXP's to fit Griffs' stylings? Your ships are more than welcome in my Ooniverse :wink: Well gee shucks. I'm studying griffs shader style and should be able to put together a basic howto...

Well, personally I think reflections are an integral part of the Griff look, so I wouldn't want that to change... Well I'm not exactly disagreeing with you here. Some observations though - 1. not all the ships have the special "reflection" thing ... 2. when you encounter one, the special ...

http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/tt68/Simon_Bridge/Screenshot-Oolitev174-Nov242009-2-1.png Updated FDL w shading. I was playing this on a HUGE screen :) but it meant the overhead screenshots didn't work out. Also noticed that what you see in each view depends on the resolution? I notice that the ...

... again, without the shaders. The Mussurana is marketed direct at the same group that like the FDL and dubbed "fdl killer" -- also shows what can be done with extending the style

Hey cool - ages ago I wrote a big list someplace about what I thought needed to be added and I find them being added after all the discussion. Maybe it just needed someone else to suggest it? More like - needed someone to decide to do it while I was fiddling about with little ship remakes. For that ...

Hey - remember that fdl suggestion I had? I um, rethought it ...



This is just without the normalmapping.
