Somebody pass Mengy a handkerchief .... and make sure it's not beige [haha]

And in 3.2 a bug sends them all beige again.

Or make the planets cube shaped.

My ship is parked over one such ultra-boring beige planet. I can't wait to see it totally transformed the next time I log in!

It's been almost two years since comments were first made about this degradation; it seemed to take forever for Michael Brookes to say "we will take a look" and then eventually, to come back with a response as to why it had happened.

Interesting re-reading some of that thread ... the usual characters "defending" FD on the issue, and even some doubting it was an issue at all. ... nothing changes in that respect, but at least we now have a satisfactory result within our grasp [heart]

Rats! Out of rep.

Patch 3.0..... Half Life 3 confirmed.

I'm bookmarking all the beige worlds, then going back to see what the change is.

I didn't realise they increased the maximum number of bookmarks to infinite.

I visited a bunch of planets in the beta which I had taken pictures of in 2.2-2.4 for my Search for Color thread. The difference is nothing short of spectacular. Physical terrain is unchanged for 3.0 but the new colors in the beta brought out so much detail in the terrain which was almost unnoticeable in live due to the homogenous nature of the coloring. It’s a big difference overall.

The Beige will rise again!

I've already organized hundreds of bots that will flood Twitter and Facebook. The leaflets are being printed.

"Say NO! to unicorn droppings planets!"

That's what the Sepiamen are trying to achieve: A world unified in a single tone of color.

I have the perfect image to go with that:
