1.74: oh, shiny!

In fact, I think everything's a little too shiny now. Look at the planet (procedurally textured) and the moon (from Assassins), they look more like marbles than anything else. And the asteroid as well.

Something’s messing with your ambient light setting (although there is a bug that causes specular highlights to appear on asteroids, which isn’t supposed to happen). Does it look like this without OXPs (or planetinfo.plists)?

Only after posting I realized that Assassins sets the ambient_level to 3 in this specific system. After a jump to a neighbouring system the shinyness was gone.

So: false alarm.

At a guess, it might be Dr HUD.

No, it's a variant of the cobra3newhud which comes with Cobra Courier.oxp. A helpful board member inserted the IC shape and name instead of the original Cobra III for me.
