New Hope wrote: Don't think so Terrak. Dynamic lightning and sound, better particles and other effects will be the differences in the new client. It should all run at a nice speed as well, the old rendering code probably sucked hard, and it'll fix the issues with the Radeon Cards. I like dynamic lighting but when the ships look like donkey crap compared to the 2D versions (the models are very good but 3D won't look as good as 2D for many years)... I'll pass.

Yes, the ships will be lit according to where the suns are, and also bright bullets and engine exhaust and explosions. Hopefully planets will have cloudy atmospheres that rotate around them. And hopefully we can do something like attach weapon models to the ship models to indicate what weapons you have equipped.

While your doing that can this 3D artist possibly fix the physics in this game? I mean seeing like 20 suns all flying through and around each other is just unrealistic and not very attractive. However a big sun in the middle with planets spinning around it at elliptical orbits... now thats just purty.
You can even do some cool event where when the planets align some wormhole opens up somewhere in the galaxy (random spot) and theres cool stuff in there. (random thought)
