It always tickles me to see folks having fun with some of the projects. A short clip by BoiKat, featuring Rob's incomparable space gauges, and some of my flailing around. Funny, those ships look better than I remember :biggrin-new:

I have to drop him a note, cool little short; and find out he did the weapons effects!

The alien ship is from Babylon 5 correct? I don't remember what I assume are the earth ships but they look good.

That's the 'Ardent' class Anti-Aerospace Defence Frigate, from ACV-15 escorts space objects packs from a year or 2 back. I like the effects, a gun would be sweet, and most of the bigger AI stuff was hard surfaced so I could at least "nuke' a ship.
I am surprised at how well the graphic quality compares with mainstream CGI work, given the platform.

BSG had a great music director. I liked this version, great spoof. The 'Sound of Cylons'

Lazarus,

If you find out how he did the weapon effects, would you be so kind as to share? That's the coolest
weapon effects I've seen in FSX so far... that and the nuclear bomb - which I seem to remember someone
saying they had upgraded to version 2.0 on this forum, and might upload it at some point. I guess they changed their mind...
