and yes, the running-lights cycle around the ship.. it looks quite squid-like in action.

Re: Screenshots
Greetings, Commanders. I'd like to showcase the very first screenshots from my WIP <classified>.oxp, featuring the mind-blowing texturing creativity of Smivs.

Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied

Re: Screenshots
Very nice! ...so... are there any chances of a routine to cause the intensity of the ship colour to gently fade and rebrighten - to enhance the organic feel of the ship, and make it appear alive - as if it were 'breathing', or had a organ pumping fluid around it...?
Very funny, Scotty, now beam down my clothes...

Re: Screenshots
A leaf texture, looking like veins. Very clever. Very horrible and alien, too. What a leap forward in texturing. Well done, all.
The pulsing effect could also be a dark patch on the wing / wings that slowly expands and contracts. Like a beating heart(s).

@ Smivs - I reckon this might the moment to learn some shaders - if you could impart a 'pulsing' effect to those veins that ship would look even more amazing. - urgh - Ninja'd

Re: Screenshots
Could you make the veins glow with an emission_map? If so it may be doable to vary the glow colour (
emission_modulate_color) via script to simulate pulsing. It could pulse very slowly normally, and more rapidly in combat. Not sure how effective it would look in practise, but might be worth a try? Capt. Murphy's OXPsExternal JavaScript resources - W3Schools & Mozilla Developer Network

Re: Screenshots
I don't know if this pulsating texture would be possible but it would really bring to life, pardon the pun, the organic feel of these ships.
It sounds like a fantastic idea.

Just thought that I'd post a screenshot of an encounter between a Slave ship and a Katapatan in the Larais system.

Looks like the mothership in Close Encounters.
