Guest Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 Truly awesome- and coming to our screens soon too, ah life is good. Thanks SC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mej023 Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 In pic #30, the first thing that grabbed me was the scale of the objects and the creative screen save. It is futuristic, the skybox looks awesome... I don't know, it just made me want to see more. I can imagine watching this on my pc listening to the great soundtracks that come with these games.

Dunno if we're talking about the same shot, but that one looks boring to me. All I see is a part of the station and a Zenstar flyby. Are we looking at the same image? What does creative screen save mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mej023 Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 Your right Derek - if I switch to a "technical" point-of-view, pic #30 is boring except it shows off the nice textures. I was looking at the pictures from a more "creative / imaginary" point-of-view. Kind of like looking at an illustration depicting part of a grand science fiction story. The creative screen grab comment was made with that point-of-view. I think your ability to visualize is at a higher level than most peoples. You seem to take that ability for granted.

Guest rtoolooze Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 Ya, just got thru playing BCM for awhile, saved game, hit exit, and whoa! It does that to me every time now. You see, I have a nice new XP1 pic as my desktop background, (of course) and you can really tell the difference. And we are still just seeing early shots coming from XP1. And S.C. say's we have'nt seen nothing yet. I believe him! Keep those shots coming, its the only thing keeping us from going insane while we wait!

Epsilon 5 Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 Looks great but the Zenstar looks a little too much smoothed IMHO... expecially in the cockpit area. I almost like the old one better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Cmdr Posted March 14, 2002 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 I have uploaded 10 new shots. I took these on a Radeon 8500 with 4x SmoothVision AA. Also, in order for the shots to not degrade due to compression, they are in PNG format. So make sure your browser can decode PNG images. The thumb nails are JPEG but the images they refer to are PNG.

Soback Posted March 15, 2002 Report Share Posted March 15, 2002 No jagged edges. How's the quality going to be with a GeForce 3 card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's the quality going to be with a GeForce 3 card?Those first 24 shots were taken on a GF3 without AA. I turned AA on and it doesn't look much different from the Radeon shots - except that the latter seems to have a more sharper image (this has always been the case for ATI and Matrox boards) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG MILLER Posted March 15, 2002 Report Share Posted March 15, 2002 Wow!!! Looks like ATI could be moving onto my preferred vendor list soon. SC, how are the Radeon cards doing with BCM nowadays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolferz Posted March 19, 2002 Report Share Posted March 19, 2002 The pics are looking fantastic! But, I've said it before and I'll say it again... The pics don't come close to doing the game justice when it's running I'm glad that I just emptied my drool cup.

Supreme Cmdr Posted March 28, 2002 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2002 I am going to be releasing an ingame movie from XP1 on Monday or Tuesday. Until then, tomorrow I will be releasing 18 new screen shots. I have uploaded three teasers. Don't even bother adding letters to the path thinking the other shots are there. They are not. photo051 photo055 photo068 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
