Hello.
I enjoy that you took the time to impliment the 'lead indicator' and the target squares, but OMG you so totally over did it! I find myself flying around wondering what I'm shooting at underneath all that mess of targeting information. It really, really, really takes away from the shear beauty of the ships as well as that whole 'Star Wars' feel.
What I would like to see is this,
- On/Off option for the Lead Indicator
- On/Off(Sound Only) for the Missle Target Lock
- Ability to scale up/down thethickness of Target Boxes
- Drasticly reduce the tackiness of the Incoming Missle system (sound/lights/text
We should also have a 'Clasic Mode' that works like this,
- All inicators are built into the cockpit panel using coloured light squares
- Ship speed, Boosters, Capacitors are displayed as vertical bars on the cockpit panel: |_|-|''|
- Reticle is smaller and looks as if it's atually ON the front glass of the cockpit
- Reticle only displays a crosshair ( + )
- More sounds are associated with ship states.
I find it such a shame that all this awesome DirectX9 artwork is so overshadowed by the commodore64 look of the HUD.
