Wow! I'll check it out - love sun skimming with injectors (scoops up at speed!) and then witch space jump.. awesome.Fatleaf wrote:I first noticed it with 1.74. But Can't say if it was in earlier versions. Try sun skimming and watch your ship go from cool to a brilliant almost white glow before it blows. The trick is to time the injectors right so you can see yourself cool down again afterward. Just watch the trumble barbeque!

Built-in ships have done it since 1.71 (in full shader mode). I don’t know when Griff’s started doing it, but it wasn’t very recently.

Re: Screenshots
Just noticed another cool thing which I am also not sure when it first appeared! View your ship from the outside and fire your laser till it overheats and see if you notice something...
I take my hat of to the "wizards of dev" and all the OXPers this game just keeps getting beter and beter.
I wonder what else is yet to find...

Bah! This screenshot thread is in need of more screenshot!
Some casual scenes from the Ooniverse. Bring back any memories?
Silly Fer-De-Lance owner, Piracy is not the answer!
A quiet moment pondering a spacer's defining moment. His ability to dock manually.
A naval battle group greets me as I make my way to the naval station in search of reserve missions.

Yeah! Love those shots - Well done OneoftheLost - you bring back memories!OneoftheLost wrote:Bah! This screenshot thread is in needs of more screenshots!
Check this out:
I'm happily blowing away a Fugitive Sidewinder and my computer picks up a "Splinter" as I blow through the debris at close range... so I head off to the Station and guess what I can see in the rear view.. check out how far away that Splinter is!
Hmm.. long range scanner eh!

Re: Screenshots
I think that will be the more noobish question ever. How do I post my screenshot ? I can't see any place to upload a file.
EDIT: I get an error message "It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image."
I use Flickr

"DRIVE MALFUNCTION..."
Shot a couple of Thargoid warships and then I discovered not one but 2 generation ships. I did not know we could find 2 of them.

Re: Screenshots
Makandal,
Make sure the image isn't too big. A full-size screenshot will be too large...normally about 900px wide is big enough so scale it down a bit if necessary, and make sure it's a normal file type eg .jpg, .png something like that.

Here's another - Slowed down before attempting to dock manually while "outside" the Cobra.
Oops - pressed "fire laser" instead of "speed up" and got bumped by a Viper flying out at full speed. Check out the 'dent' in his jet plume. The next one knocked me out of the way BACKWARDS, wished I got a shot of that too!

Great shot, moments before I was looking at a classic elite wireframe screenshot, what a difference!
