David E. Gervais, you have outdone yourself!
 
I have to tell you that I spent about 15 minutes mesmerized by your new spash screen on v1.91. I was taken by the detail in every way. The EEE ships battling the Jraenar space station is subtle but noticable to any who play frequently. The beams impacting the shields was expertly depicted. I noticed the detail on the planet surface; tropical forests, mountains, oceans of blue. I noticed the thin shells of atmospheres which are probably very close to scale. (I immediately identified the planet in the forground as having an oxygen atmosphere.) I noticed the clouds (with shadows on the surface!!!) showing coriolis effects. I found the 3D sense of being out in space looking at this battle scene being played out to be a perfect representation of the game. I salute you sir!

Slick.

I must say though, that is sure a big space station! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Size and distance in space always seem distorted. If it looks like everything is to scale, then it's probably a fake. I took this pic with my digital camera so I can't bring myself to question the scale.

Besides, the sure sign that it is a good image is that Fyron is not impressed by it. (You see he lives in space so the pic looks like a normal' every-day 'average' run of the mill stock photo to him.)

Slick: I'm glad you like the new intro pic.

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

LOL, I love this! The music finally works, is it just me or this thing using the music saved to my hard drive. It has to be! There is no way MM would include R-rated music. Is this a bug?
