I also wonder if the 3D thing might not slow down the creation of new races which is one of the things I loved about SEIV was having something like 300 races in it.


I don't; SE4 had a rather slow buildup of ship sets... It wasn't until just a few years ago when shipset count got so high (around/after Gold). The starting community of SE5 is larger than it was for SE4, so there are bound to be more graphics people around with SE5 early days than SE4. A fair majority of original (not screen captures of SW ships or whatever) SE4 shipset authors used normal 3d apps to make their sets, not Doga. Thing is, most of them only made a few sets, so they tend to be overwhelmed in the volume of work by, say, Atrocities, who only used Doga.

It should be an option when you start the game...


It is there, in the Game Options tab.
