My mind...it has been blown!

Those are gorgeous. Now, will this be compatible with KM & GC? And can it be made so you don't have to have a QuickBattle session started to go to DS9?

Sovvy has been working with Frontier to make Xtended compatible with Galaxy Charts 2.0.

Galaxy Charts has to be installed first, then Xtended afterwords, but yes they are compatible.

KM 1.0 fully
GC 1.0 fully
GC 2.0 90% compatible (war sim must be turned off to play ds9fx missions, no other way)

Has been there since the early days of Xtended.

I figured to share what we want to include in Xtended, this is still a test only. So in no way it is complete, refined or anything at all.

The engine doesn't allow much, but what can be done is demonstrated here in my little test of a pulsar fade in\fade out effect.

Don't worry true GFX shall be added in the actual system to be included.

Ooh, interesting! Although is it possible to make it so the glare doesn't disappear completely? (Would be more realistic)

I didn't know any of this was possible in BC's engine...

That would be nice, but I can't think of any way that would be possible in BC. Sovvie has made a work-around so we can get as close as possible to the desired effect. I thought about doing this as a textured animation but the blinking would be predictable. The way Sovvie has made it, it can be randomized in frequency...making it longer, shorter, faster, slower, etc.

Lol, the pulsar wasn't exactly in the drawing boards. It's just something I wanted ingame that we don't have.

I just crapped my pants in sheer awe of all of this. I cannot wait to play it. GET IT DONE NOW!!! lol. No rush

. This is gonna maake BC 50x better! Just wow.

Mario · « **Reply #117 on:** March 25, 2010, 12:42:57 AM »

I figured it's kind of better if it disappeared completely but ah well... take 2...

Villain · « **Reply #118 on:** March 25, 2010, 06:47:18 AM »

Gotta say, I quite like the second version.

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #119 on:** March 25, 2010, 08:04:30 AM »

lol, that system needs a warning "Epileptic starship captains keep out!"
