Excellent work and I love this feature. The art in this game is incredible and showcasing it is a fantastic idea.

Hi


I have a ATI Radeon 9550 with 256mb as well,

I can enable alot of futures with this baby but as soon as i turn on the shadows to full it gets laggy though.

You happen to know if that is caused cause of the lack of RAM? I currently have 1024MB RAM and can put an extra 512 in a remaining slot. So you think if i drop the extra memory chip of 512mb in it, that it will reduce the graphical lag as well? I know the "crowd lag" for example; Coronet Starport will be reduced this way, but i'm not sure if it will reduce the lag of graphical performance as well.


Cheers

It is caused by the way the cards handle the shadows. The new cards out (X800/6800) series handle the shadows a lot better with the edge going to the nVidia cards. Older cards are not as forgiving with volumetric shadows.

I play in 1600x1200 with full everything including shadows, the screenshot was with 8xaa which I do not normally play at simply because I cant tell the difference ingame but it makes a nice difference in the screenshots. (yay for xmas thats when I got the xt video card and its a dream )

Nice pic GarVa. Looking forward to what else you have up your sleve for the wallpapers.


One question though, Is that from a live server or do you get your screen shots for these things off of an internal Dev server?

Is there going to be more planet wallpapers? I'd like a really good picture of Dathmoir when it's bright and not too dark.

Also, I forgot to add in my earlier post but board themes with these new wallpaper themes would be awesome! I'd love to have the planet of my choice on my board.
