If you think this Battlecruiser MK3 looks good, wait'll you see the MK1 and MK2

In case you didn't notice, the Battlecruiser carriers now have four turrets

Amazing! That nebula in the background is great. And so is that planet. But why isn't the multitexturing on the planet enabled like in some old shots? Or maybe it is, but it can't be seen at that distance, like the terrain. Either way, those are great shots. Props to 3000AD!

[/indent]You mean detail texturing. It is only enabled when up close because thats when its needed in order to reduce the pixelation bluring.

Those 22 new shots in the gallery are great. I like how the windows on the station and ship are bright and stand out. The nebula in the background is amazing. But what's up with that escape pod? There's nobody in it!

Very sweet SC. I love the light cast on the hull from the internal/ship lighting and the new con trails are very sweet.

But a question. Have a look at:

BC MkIII

Does the bridge/cockpit look slightly of line to the rest of the ship in this shot(and some of the others) or do I need to change my glasses?

Hehe, about that empty escape pod, Resnig probably hit the eject button as the commander was about to sit down, sending the chair thru a hole in the roof and causing the commander to fall down on his rear.

[/indent]I'm quite fond of the orignal BCMK3 myself. This new one is a major improvement though over the other two versions of the MK3 IMO. Here is a shot of the BCMK3 from all three games. The one from BCM seems a bit plain compared to the other two. Maybe its just me though.

Excellent work SC! I can hardly wait to take her out and get to work stomping Insurgents!

The one that you have from BC3K is not the model in the game; BC3K only had the MKII. I believe that that was one of the original textures form the BCM version.

[/indent]On second thought I think your right! Its been awhile since I've played BC3K. Thats just a shot I found in the screenshoot section of a site for BC3K. I just went to Powercows tribute site for BC3K and the model looks different. You can see it here and here.

[/indent]Well then, you should keep playing v2.0 then, shouldn't you?

Anyway, I have implemented the MK1 into the game and sent some shots over to gamescreenshots. Below are a few shots until they get updated.

EDIT: They are now up at Gamescreenshots.com
