I'd like to see a wolf paw in there as well - the kind that they have in Jack Wolfskin logo. Would go great on the side of my Wolf Explorer...

awesome decals Disembodied, i'll sort out some preview pics of them in a mo.

Added the Rockhermit to the ship pack, only available as an individual download at the moment, i'll sort out adding it into the Dizzy all in 1 bundle oxp a bit later.
There are 2 versions - a fullsize texture version and a half size texture version, i was a bit staggered to find that the full size texture version comes to 16 MB zipped up, heaven knows how much texture memory it uses, there's quite a few maps involved:-
two 512x512 maps, three 512x1024 maps, two 1024x512 maps and four 2048x1024 maps

It looks awesome! But I'll bet a lot of older systems, and even a few recent ones, would choke on it.

Beautiful work, Griff… looks lovely in-game… many thanks.

That’s the full size texture version on my mostly four year old machine… no problems.

If i'd thought about it before uploading the oxp, i could have done the normal maps at a lower res than the diffuse maps, i suppose a bit of experimenting with various texture map sizes might be in order.
I'll have to download trunk and try out that configurable rotation speed setting Kaks added in, might be neat to have these spinning slowly

Oh yes... very good idea.

Trunk is not needed. Kaks sneaked it into the 1.74.2 update. (Even when it feels not as a bug-fix but as a new feature)

It's so beautiful, it made me cry a little bit...

Griff, you are a God.

Lord Braben, Lord Bell, Lord Murphy, Lord Giles...and Lord Griff. Is it me, or are all these religions getting tricky to keep track of?

Nope, because I KNOW Griff exists...
