NO LOLLYGAGGING! Alpha 3.0 screenies

[Dr Wookie]

I managed to video a couple of runs to the space station right after Alpha 3.0 dropped; not had much since. I've been consoling myself since with those videos and made these screenshots. Enjoy!

Warning: large pictures

double post, how did you manage that.

Impressive. But not double ... quadruple for me

Nice pics! Shame the ship isn't shut down properly in the 7th image though, doesn't look quite right to still have the engines and heat exhausts brightly lit.

agreed, it's on the list

Can the texture resolution be increased?

Well, I have everything on max settings, but don't forget that these are screen shots from a video that I made rather than from the game itself; there's quite a lot of compression going on, with some degredation of the image.

beautiful shots, I absolutely love the external views of the ship whilst docked.

I've got this image in my head. The engines of the ship will still be glowing but beside it will be a sign "Caution! Hot engines."

I'll get someone modeling the warning cones

Great images there Dr W.

I've deleted the Dup thread as well.

Excellent pictures. I might have just wet myself a little bit... Please don't tell anyone...:S

Another thing that stands out for me (as a Beta backer) is a lack of shadow under the ship (when viewed externally in-dock) .. Given the level of detail in all other aspects, I basically assume this is to be a known issue, but would hate myself for not mentioning if it did get overlooked

Light sources under the ship?..

Thanks for the reminder:smilie: Shadows under docked ships are also on the list... the list is long!

What gorgeous shots - thanks for sharing and to the team for all their hard work

I'm with Frank on this one. Engines must be a bit warm, so would appear to glow for a while after shutdown. You can make a good case for moving this one down the list, or add an item to make the heat vents glow to the list.

I'm not helping, am I?

I'm going to need a new pad of post-its! All good notes though, the great thing about the Alpha process is we get to hear your feedback before the game ships.
