Battle over Coruscant - Hi-end-PC version
2005-10-13, 7:56 AM #1
OK, I was just fiddling with the BOC mission a bit more and decided to make two versions:

- the standard average PC version, like you've seen before.
- Hi-end PC version. This will be more or less a visually upgrade: I've set the less importan starships(typical Venators, CIS fleet) to come in actuall flightgroups of 3-5 instead of having each ship appear once - increasing the number of ships in the area about 4 times. Of course, I won't do this for the mission critical capships(Invisible hand, RSS Vigilliance, Integrity, etc.)

here are some shots - This is more like the movies

And here are some first impressions of how my orbit OPT can be used elsewhere....

It has lasers and explosions - lots of them. Each of the star destroyers has about 50-100 weapon hardpoints and the ships blast at each other with full fury. I just picked a bad moment to take those screenshots.

Oh, and I'm a candidate for the Lo-End PC version, due to my crappy graphics card My framerate was rather low :(

The planet needs to be spherical. It looks flat like a pancake. Otherwise, very nice.

It is flat as a pancake. The problem is XWA seems to have problems with objects larger than 40km. So a spherical planet would be not much more than a tiny 40 km moon.

Well, better than a low res. pancake.

That rocks... but is the fps in a level like that even playable?

Good work. I can't wait. The only thing I don't like is the planet. Everything else is pretty sweet.

If only my XWA cds worked, I'd install it and take some action shots for you. I'm sure my computer can handle it.

"Excellent! Ready my shuttle for launch!"

"Yes, Sir!"

"...Sir?"

"Yes?"

"What do we do now, sir?"

I thought the same way. Serenity spoiled space battles for me. Nothing will ever get that response from me again.
