I was out playing with the deep space star destroyer tonight and by chanceI noticed some new art upgrades.


My first thought was this may have something to do with the boarding parties capitol ships stuff so it may be closer then we think. Being the curious typeI went back over some previous files to see ifI had a shot of this area before.


Some of you that play out there a lot may have noticed this already, but for comparisons sake here are a couple screen shots.


This one was taken on 6-2-05 during a video filming session.





This one was taken tonight 7-1-05, notice the area that I outlined in yellow.




I always enjoy new little things like this, what do you all think about it?


In case the clickies dont work here are the paths.

Hm! That's certainly a curious addition. Sharp eyes on that one.

I dunno about it being a signifier for more advanced development of certain tantalizing space-related prospects than we'd expected, though. Everything from FanFest sounded like there was still a significant amount of work to be done.

Same graphic settings? Same view distance? Not saying it isn't new but a lot of things are invisible 'till you get close.

Yep, same grapics settings always on full. The distance is a little further out on the 6-2-05 shot then the new one, but I checked it from distance to be sure. Even went as far as to move away from the SD until it despawned from view and then approched from the bottom,it is clearly visible form further out then the 6-2-05 shot. Actually there are two of those docking cranes now in the hold. One on either side.


I go out there daily to play in deep space and probably pull into the hold at least 3 times a week and they have never been there before.

Ya, I wasn't holding my breath for the new stuff knowing how long it takes major additions to get added. Just found it currious as they just showed up with this last patch, probably it is just updates that needed to be done eventually and they finally got around to getting it in.


I visit that hold area generally about 3 times a week and they have never been there before.
