Note that the .zip file contains a windows thumbs.db file adding about 225Kb to the file. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Silly Reptilian, letting a rogue thumbs file into your archives. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Hmm, could either of your provide instructions for the semi-computer illiterate for getting rid of that superfluous file?? Pretty please? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Oh, and note that the images below are examples of those that turned out better than some, and not all are quite that good http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

EDIT: I will remove the .zip file until the thumbs file can be removed.

I think those ships look great! I'll take two please. And a large fries.

[Renegade 13]

Coming right up! As soon as I fix the zip and reupload the file...

[RudyHuxtable]

You have until 10 AM tomorrow morning or I will begin blowing people up at random!

[Renegade 13]

Problem solved! Created a little program to delete thumbs.db files and disabled their creation. File is now much much smaller. The attachment will be up again soon. Enjoy!

[Fyron]

You don't need a program for that. The options in Explorer will let you do that automatically.

Go to the Tools menu, select Folder Options, then click on the View tab. There are options in there about not saving thumbnail caches and about automatically hiding system files. Showing system files will cause thumbs.db to appear in the normal folder viewing process. Preventing Windows from caching thumbnail images will prevent thumbs.db from being written in the future, but will not delete any that already exist in random places.

OK Fyron, thanks for the advice. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[Sivran]

Or you could just um.. not include it when making your archive http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

'Twas accidental

Preview pics look nice http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Add some battle scarring on the DN. Scorchmarks, patched gaps, dented outer hull etc.

[Raging Deadstar]

I second the scorchmarks idea. But god dam is that not a good shipset. You've got talent for this Renegade http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif

[Renegade 13]

I'll keep the scorchmarks idea for version 1.1 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

And thanks a lot everyone!

[NullAshton]

A bit of glow in those engine tubes might be nice.

[Strategia_In_Ultima]

If this is meant as an Organic ship (it looks like that to me), you could add shark-like gills to the DN, and perhaps a row of teeth stuck flat against the hull.

Lol, I'm playing as it right now Renegade http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gifBeen after a somewhat good organic looking set for sometime, at least one that isn't plantish and flowery http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
